Tabb Centenary Year VI Five quatrains by Rev. John B. Tabb. Deep Unto Deep
Where limpid waters lie between, August 1894 (p. 366, Quatrains: Miscellaneous) The Rain-Pool
I am too small for winds to mar 1902 (p. 337, Quatrains: Day and Night) “For the Rain It Raineth Every Day”
Aye, every day the rain doth fall, November 1892 (p. 356, Quatrains: Miscellaneous) Tears
Out of the deep are we, 1910 (p. 369, Quatrains: Miscellaneous) The Sun
He prisons many a life indeed April 1893 (p. 331, Quatrains: Day and Night) [“Deep Unto Deep” echoes Psalm 41:8 (enumerated Psalm 42:7 in most Bibles). “For the Rain It Raineth Every Day” is from Shakespeare: Twelfth Night or King Lear. In “The Sun”, understand “sesame” as in “Open, Sesame” from Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves in Arabian Nights.] Lane Core Jr. CIW P Sun. 02/01/09 06:56:29 PM |
