Excerpt from The Jew to Jesus, and Other Poems The Jew to Jesus O Man of my own people, I alone Among these alien ones can know thy face, I who have felt the kinship of our race Burn in me as I sit where they intone Thy praises, - those who, striving to make known A God for sacrifice, have missed the grace Of thy sweet human meaning in its place, Thou who art of our blood-bond and our own. Are we not sharers of thy Passion? Yea, In spirit-anguish closely by thy side We have drained the bitter cup, and, tortured, felt With thee the bruising of each heavy welt. In every land is our Gethsemane. A thousand times have we been crucified. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
