Sonnets of the Cross is a collection of religious poetry written by Thomas S. Jones. The book is composed of 50 sonnets, each exploring a different aspect of the Christian faith and the journey of the soul. The sonnets are written in a traditional form, with 14 lines and a strict rhyme scheme, but the language is modern and accessible. The themes of the sonnets range from the agony of the crucifixion to the joy of salvation, and each one offers a unique perspective on the mysteries of faith. The book is a powerful meditation on the meaning of the cross and the depth of God's love for humanity. It is a must-read for anyone seeking spiritual inspiration and guidance.1924. The Society of Saints Peter and Paul, recognizing the intrinsic merit of these poems, now offers them to English readers for the first time. Reading of the poems consecutively, one has the feeling of withdrawing deeper and deeper into some still place; a hush is upon everything as if one entered into a sanctuary. It is a quiet altogether mystical, as if evoked for us by one who had found the serene beauty at the heart of Life. It is the mood which comes upon one who wanders alone into a wood, dreaming in a still autumnal peace.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
