Composed by Allan Bevan. Octavo. 4 pages. Cypress Choral Music #CP 1697. Published by Cypress Choral Music (C3.CP-1697).I See His Blood Upon a Rose' is a poem in the mystical tradition, expressing the intensity of Plunkett's Christian faith. These simple verses testify to the presence of the divine in the world, reading in nature the iconography of the crucifixion. At the centre of the poem lies the conviction that Christ's suffering will never be forgotten, as long as God's word remains the bedrock of existence. Here the deeply personal becomes universal through an unworldly directness of address. Allan Bevan coveys the poem with beautiful music.
