Behold!

 

A story requires an occasional “Behold!”

Merely to see the magic is not enough

The children do not merely see Aslan

Nor does Uncle Andrew merely see the witch

 

Behold!

 

A story requires an occasional “Behold!”

Merely to see the Truth is not enough

The Magi do not merely see the Star

Nor do the shepherds merely see the Child

 

Behold!

 

A story requires an occasional “Behold!”

Or else the magic isn’t truly told

 

Behold!
