Synopsis

"The very title of this fourth volume of Hightower's verse, we are told, is Ben Franklin's revision of Jefferson's proposed opening of a famous document which originally characterized 'these truths' as sacred, but which cool-headed Ben changed to self-evident. Perhaps there is some savor of Jesus in these breathtaking poems after all. Read 'em and wipe away your tears."--Richard Howard
