Cornel West, Harvard Affiliates Call for University to Divest from ‘Israeli Apartheid’ at Rally
The following poem, inspired by the presence of the distinguished visitors at the University, was submitted to the "CRIMSON" by Mr. Auslander. We take pleasure in printing this contribution.
They have communed with Death and they are great.
In quiet grandeur of His hand on them:
Beneath the red and Khaki shines the hem.
Of His invisible pontificate;
Their eyes, their lips, their gesture meditate.
His last immediacy; the diadem
Of His divinity fillets like a gem
These hostages that are His consecrate.
We cannot give them more, for they have held
Both hands in awful fire and sacrificed
Their flock to Faith that so the Antichrist
Might like a vapourous pestilence be dispelled!
Honour is weak, praise droops ingloriously--
These kings have walked with One from Galilee! JOSEPH AUSLANDER '18.
