MAIN STREET AND OTHER POEMS


MULTIPLICATION (continued)

Above the roofs I see a cross outlined against the night,
And I know that there my Lover dwells in His sacramental might.


Dominions kneel before Him, and Powers kiss His feet,
Yet for me He keeps His weary watch in the turmoil of the street:
The King of Kings awaits me, wherever I may go,
O who am I that He should deign to love and serve me so?
