In honor of Our Lady of the Holy Rosary/Our Lady of Victories (October 7), here is a track that seems appropriate.

Ok, this seems to have gone over like flatulence in church...so let me elaborate a bit.

This is a ONE AND A HALF MINUTE recital of a wonderful piece of Catholic poetry.

Please download, listen to it, and let me know what you think.

It was recorded at Immaculate Conception Academy.

The CD is no longer in print or for sale anywhere, so I figure it's fair to post the full track here.

Nice recital! What meter is this in? What is the story behind the poem?

It was written by my new favorite author - G.K. Chesterton. I wish the Chesterton Society would do a study guide for this one!
