Religion

Luc. 7. She began to wash his feet with teares and wipe them with the haires of her head.

by Richard Crashaw 1613–1649

Religion

HEer eyes flood lickes his feets faire sta…ne,
Her haires flame lickes up that againe.
This flame thus quench't hath brighter beames:
This flood thus stained fairer streames.
