The Chesterton Calendar ~ Good Friday

GOOD FRIDAY

And well may God with the serving folkCast in His dreadful lot.Is not He too a servant,And is not He forgot?
Wherefore was God in GolgothaSlain as a serf is slain;And hate He had of prince and peer,And love He had and made good cheer,Of them that, like this woman here,Go powerfully in pain.'Ballad of Alfred.'

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
