(Rest to his soul where his soul has gone!)

Was a man whose life was long perplexed

By pious juggles with the text.

The logic of St. Thomas’ books

Was fastened to his mind with hooks.

He knew Tertullian’s work complete—

That treatise on the Paraclete.

He knew the words Chrysostom hurled

In golden thunder on the world;

And he could commentate and quote
