Religious and Spiritual poem about the Bible, as it is read in Church. This outloud reading of the New or Old Testament text is praised in the poem. Written by a "Parish Poet," Peter Menkin Obl Cam OSB, the work is also read by the same. These words from the poem's text (which appears on Peter Menkin blog):
lovely messengers, you bring me to desire the Gospel words that make new testament...
This from an introduction to the poem on Peter Menkin blog ( http://www.petermenking.blogspot.com ): "For many years I have enjoyed and learned from hearing read and reading the New Testament. My Bible is "The New Oxford Annotated Bible" New Standard Revised Version. I also hear the Bible on Sunday when I attend Sunday worship services. In the Church where I attend the Gospel is read on Sunday by the Priest (minister), who usually reads in a manner that is proclamation. We have three readings usually."
