I saw the sun at midnight rising red, deep-hued yet glowing, heavy with the stain of blood-compassion, and I saw it gain swiftly in size and growing till it spread over the stars, the heavens bowed their head, As from its hard, slow dripped a crimson rain. Then a great tremor shook it, as of pain. The night fell, moaning, as it hung there dead. O sun, O Christ, O bleeding heart of flame, Thou givest thine agony as our life's worth, And makest it infinite, lest we have dearth of rights wherewith To call upon thy name. Thou pawnest heaven as a pledge for earth, and for our glory sufferest all shame.
