  • I love this poem, chuck anything at us Brits we love it when things are simple as this.

  • @breagadoir

    Kensal Green was an one of the first Victorian 'garden cemeteries'. Chesterton reminds us that the only place prettier than a garden cemetery in England is Paradise itself.

  • @thallassocracy What is the joke in the last line? I'm not getting it.

  • Beautiful phots to accompany.

  • :)

  • I enjoyed that reading, even though Johnny come lately!

  • bloody brilliant, that, and well read. thanks.

  • Always one of my favourites - and it took me years to get the joke in that last line.

    Chesterton's Battle of Lepanto asks some searching questions of Islam - but probably too bluntly for it to be safe to perform these days.

    He was a hairball of prejudices, but at least he was honest about it.
