Incense and
Latin
Incense
and Latin sweeten still the air
Two
thousand years of faith, and beauty rare
In
ancient usages to lift us up
Above
our Fall, to Altar, Word, and Cup;
Poor,
pale translations cannot compromise
What
we have sensed through lips and eyes and sighs
Which
God has granted us that we might live
Salvation
given, and in turn we give
A
faithful heart, a tabernacle where
Incense
and Latin sweeten still the air.
