A Prelude to Good Friday

Since John Donne's feast day was celebrated just before Palm Sunday this year, I read a few selections to lead me into Holy Week.

Tomorrow, I wil be at St. Bartholomew's Church, participating in the Liturgy of the Hours. Before going into that solemn space, here is a taste of John Donne's Holy Sonnets as arranged by Benjamin Britten, and performed at the Duke Divinity School.

I'll post after the Liturgy of the Hours a short mediation on Good Friday. After that, radio silence until Easter.
