St Stephen the First Martyr 2025
-
Truly it is worthy... as we consider the birth of the blessed Stephan, who
was both levite and martyr, and who set forth for us venerable examples of
faith...

There is a sense of safety and security in the hidebound, but I recently rediscovered this little rhyme by Walter De la Mar (1873-1956). Maybe you recognize it.
ReplyDeleteAll But Blind
All but blind
In his chambered hole
Gropes for worms
The four-clawed mole.
All but blind
In the evening sky,
The hooded bat
Twirls softly by.
All but blind
In the burning day,
The barn-owl blunders
On her way.
And blind as are
These three to me,
So blind to someone
I must be.
