entered, a hush rested over the crowd.
Here is no cry of the huckster, no barker selling tickets
and badges. Here is the calm of the cathedral, the endless
rooms illuminated by their repeated interpretations of a
Man who lived and died. And lived again.
The people who came to see Him as He was seen in other
centuries by other eyes are common folk. Some of them are
dusted by miles of travel. Some of them are marked by
Florida sun and wind. And some are too poor to come on
any day except the Sabbath when the great gates are open
free to any man.
They walk here and see Christ born on canvas, Christ
healing the blind in marble, and they do not laugh nor eat
popcorn nor speak among themselves except as they might
find necessary in a place of worship.
Among them is a woman who came on crutches and lifted
herself and her spirit up the stone steps.
Here is preserved the beauty of art for all men to see.
Here the gentle figure of Christ is forever taken tenderly
from the cross.
And the great unseeing eyes of the boy David in the
courtyard look out forever over hibiscus and oleander.
