Father Tabb Centenary Year Concludes

Tempus fugit.

In honor of the centenary of the death of poet-priest John B. Tabb, November 19, 1909, I began publishing sets of his poetry on the first Sunday of this year and finished on the last Sunday. There are now 70 sets of poems, including sets published on special days other than Sundays, such as the anniversary of Fr. Tabb's birth and of his death, on Good Friday and Christmas Day, and on the first day of Fall.

Sets of five or more poems — that is, 284 poems in 56 sets — are published on one webpage at ELCore.Net.

Here are links to digital versions of Father Tabb's original poetry books:

• An Octave to Mary (1893)
