A Roman Lawyer in Jerusalem : First Century
Marcus, abiding in Jerusalem, Greeting to Caius, his best friend in Rome! Salve! these presents will be borne to you By Lucius, who is wearied with this place, Sated with travel, looks upon the East As simply hatefulblazing, barren, bleak, And longs again to find himself in Rome, After the tumult of its streets, its trains Of slaves and clients, and its villas cool With marble porticoes beside the sea, And friends and banquetsmore than all, its games This life seems blank and flat. He pants to stand In its vast circus all alive with heads And quivering arms and floating robesthe air Thrilled by the roaring fremitus of men The sunlit awning heaving overhead, Swollen and strained against its corded veins And flapping out its hem with loud report The wild beasts roaring from the pit below The wilder crowd responding from above With one long yell that sends the startled blood With thrill and sudden flush into the cheeks A hundred trumpets screamingthe dull thump Of horses galloping across the sand The clang of sabbards, the sharp clash of steel Live swords, that whirl a circle of grey fire Brass helmets flashing 'neath their streaming hair A universal tumultthen a hush Worse than the tumultall eyes staining down To the arena's pitall lips set close All muscles strainedand then that sudden yell, Habet!That's Rome, says Lucius! so it is! That is, 'tis his Rome'tis not yours and mine. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
