He mounted high gallows, bold before many, when he would loose mankind. I shook when that Man clasped me. I dared, still, not bow to earth, fall to earth's fields, but had to stand fast. Rood was I reared. I lifted a mighty King, Lord of the heavens, dared not to bend." “The young hero stripped himself–he, God Almighty–
strong and stout-minded. He mounted high gallows,
bold before many, when he would loose mankind.
I shook when that Man clasped me. I dared, still, not bow to earth,
fall to earth’s fields, but had to stand fast.
Rood was I reared. I lifted a mighty King,
Lord of the heavens, dared not to bend.”

I did not know sculptors so skillful still existed! (The statues of 20th century saints around St Peter's in Rome are, erm, not quite as gorgeous and alive as those surviving from earlier centuries.) Maybe much artistic talent in the modern age had moved into film...but praise God for Andrian Melka, that sculptors can still stun us. Wow! I did not know sculptors so skillful still existed!
