"Hast Thou No Scars?"


How to be great in the Kingdom:
 
Hast Thou No Scars?
 
 
  Hast thou no scar?
  No hidden scar, on foot,
  or side or hand?
  I hear these sung as mighty in the land.

  I hear them hail thy bright ascendant star
  Hast thou no scar?
  Hast thou no wound?

  Yet I was wounded by the archers spent
  Leaned me against a tree to die and rent
  by ravening beasts that compassed me, I swooned.
  Hast thou not wound?

  No wound, no scar.
  Yes as the master is, so shall the servant be,
  and pierced are the feet that follow me.
  But thine are whole.
  Can he have followed
  far who has no wound, no scar?
