Gilbert Keith Chesterton - The Unpardonable SinGilbert Keith Chesterton - The Unpardonable Sin
Work rating: Low


I do not cry, beloved, neither curse.  Silence and strength, these two at least are good.  He gave me sun and start and aught He could, But not a woman`s love; for that is hers. He sealed her heart from sage and questioner  Yea, with seven seals, as he has sealed the grave.  And if she give it to a drunken slave, The Day of Judgment shall not challenge her. Only this much: if one, deserving well,  Touching your thin young hands and making suit,  Feel not himself a crawling thing, a brute, Buried and bricked in a forgotten hell; Prophet and poet be he over sod,  Prince among angels in the highest place,  God help me, I will smite him on the face, Before the glory of the face of God.
