Excerpt from The Wingless Hour
In Gaza! Of all places on earth, Gaza! Once the scene Of his mightiest triumphs in the days Of his strength, now the scene Of his deepest degrada tion! What a tragedy! What infinite irony! He who once tore away the gates of this city and carried them away with a shout to the tops Of the hills, now grinds Philistine corn as a slave in its prison. The strength that should have been used in the service Of God, be ing wasted, is now put to the labor Of a beast too late does Samson realize that he played the fool and in himself received the reward Of a fool.
