Poem Luke 11 by Richard Crashaw

Blessed be the paps which thou hast sucked.
Suppose he had been tabled at thy teats,
Thy hunger feels not what He eats;
He'll have his teat ere long (a bloody one),
The Mother then must suck the Son.
Richard Crashaw (1613?-1649)

wow! that was really good! i like the part of “Anyone who isn’t with me opposes me, and anyone who isn’t working with me is actually working against me. i think we need to take that to heart. and i like the woman believes the mother is blessed to have given Christ life, however it is Christ who does blessing according to Jesus in the next line for even his mother must hear the word of God in order to be saved. Jesus also believes the people who hear the word are way more blessed then him.

ya I agree.. whats even sweeter is I get to turn it in and have the professior look at it.... and he might even use it for furture classes because he didn't undersand the poem.. I'm guessing because he isn't saved its harder to get it ya know?

I'm actually glad you get to study something interesting in the current version of this class. I took the same class at UM-D ages ago, and the professor I had, quite frankly, was boring and expected you to always agree with his interpretations.

I'm acculay taking it at Macomb.... ya he expects that but however our class has shocked him with some of my interpretations and he now starting to agree with are interpations sometimes... but its not often he just usaly gives us hints on what he thinks the poem is about.
