“And I, If I Be Lifted Up,
Shall Draw All Men”
“Three things there are,”
said one,
“That miracles are—
Dawn, and the setting sun
And a falling star.”
“Two things there be,” he said,
“Beyond man’s quest:
The white peace of the dead,
And a heart at rest.”
“One only thing,” he cried,
“Draws all men still—
A stark cross standing wide
On a windy hill.”
-- E. P. Dickie
