A Sabbath Day
1. Morning (to M.C.) 2. Full Day (to K.D.) 3. Dusk (to E.S.V) 4. Evensong (to B.M.) 5. Night (to H.S.S.) In five watches, A Sabbath Day paints the scene of a time in the distant past by when chivalrous knights roamed the land and Lancelot and Guinevere still lived and laughed. John Drinkwater's poems are based upon a walk that he took one day with friends in the Malvern Hills. Each poem has the initials of these friends. Dedicated to my wife and poet - Ingrid Prosser |
