+ 1ST ORTHODOX POEMS: Point Of Origin, Point Of Initiation

I became a Christian after a first visitation

to a Baptist chapel.  Faith in the Gospel I had long read

about admitted me to the joy of Salvation---

which is now and ever shall remain my soul's chief exultation

along the old path and good way on which I am Starward-Led.
