The Easter Song: Being The First Epic Of Christendom (1922) is a book written by Sedulius. It is a poetic retelling of the story of Easter, from the crucifixion of Jesus Christ to his resurrection. The book is considered to be the first epic poem of Christendom and is written in Latin. The poem is divided into four parts, each of which tells a different part of the Easter story. The first part describes the events leading up to the crucifixion, including the betrayal of Jesus by Judas and his trial before Pilate. The second part describes the crucifixion itself, with vivid descriptions of the suffering of Jesus on the cross. The third part tells of the descent into hell and the triumph over death, while the fourth part celebrates the resurrection of Jesus and the joy of Easter. The Easter Song is a powerful and moving work that has been celebrated for its beauty and its ability to capture the essence of the Easter story.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
