Moreover, we have seen your face before,

And heard you preach at the Cathedral door

On Easter Sunday, in the Strasburg square

We were among the crowd that gathered there,

And saw you play the Rabbi with great skill,

As if, by leaning o'er so many years

To walk with little children, your own will

Had caught a childish attitude from theirs,

A kind of stooping in its form and gait,

And could no longer stand erect and straight.
