Poem by Eleanor Farjeon

Angelic Chorus

Birds in the air,
Beasts in the byre,
Straw for thy bed,
Stars for thy fire,
Thy body for bread,
Thy Blood for the wine,
A thorn for thy crown,
A cross for thy sign. 

1. Sonnets. 11. A few of us who faltered as we fared
2. Sonnets. 16. O lovely life, how you have worn me out
3. Little Dream-Brother
4. Poplars at Night
5. The Last Week in September
