If you believe as I do that our task is to get our arms round the three thousand years of our tradition and somehow converse with it, the poem has even greater poignancy. Not a poem about poetry, but if I recall aright, somebody might have said on the thread when it was workshopped: I was so much older then. I'm younger than that now. Hell of a first rate sonnet.
