Analysis and comments on Lepanto by G.K. Chesterton

Comment 1 of 1, added on August 3rd, 2006 at 7:19 AM.

I love this poem. It was first read to me by my friend Nick (alas we are no longer in touch...)it is very evocative (of what in particular I shall let you decide) and the imagery it conjures up is marvellous - such use of language, and yet, so easy to read, like all Chesterton's poems. Still to this day the Catholic Church has a feast day of the Rosary, the praying of which was meant to have elicited divine intervention to the Battle of Lepanto.....
