At Dawn and Dusk

Symbols

Victor James Daley

’TIS said that the Passion Flower,
    With its figures of spear and sword
And hammer and nails, is a symbol
    Of the Woe of our Blessed Lord.

So still in the Heart of Beauty
    Has been hidden, since Life drew breath,
The sword and the spear of Anguish,
    And the hammer and nails of Death.
