The Wretch on the Gallows Tree: Rhymes and Carols by Daniel Mitsui - Paperback

by Daniel Mitsui (Illustrator), Daniel Mitsui (Author)

The debut poetry collection of artist Daniel Mitsui contains forty religious poems on the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, following the sequence of the liturgical year.

These poems are written in rhyme, in singable meters, using an archaic diction that suggests the popular verse of the late Middle Ages and early modern period: carols, ballads, folk songs, and hymns.
