ST BONIFACE DOWN
Posted by Admin on 19 April 2008, 12:00 am
Within its shadow, it is said,
monk Wilfred, later Bonifacious, learnt
the limitations of his finite mind –
was reconciled to ignorance regarding
the attributes of God.
And yet, despite its saintly ties, its
benevolent effect on climate in
the terraced town it shields, I could
not live at ease, enjoy sub-tropical
amenity, round-topped rampart,
which stands, for me, a bodeful thing –
portentous as the prophecies of woe
inscribed in Holy Writ.
