127. Christmas Bonus - The Journey of the Magi

I read and analyze T.S Eliot's Christmas poem, "The Journey of the Magi." I include a reading of Lancelot Andrewe's Christmas Homily that Eliot stole, err relied heavily upon in this poem.

The image of the Christmas card sent with Eliot's poem is at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journey_of_the_Magi#/media/File:T_S_Eliot_1927_The_Journey_of_the_Magi_No_8_Ariel_Poems_Faber.jpg

A recording of Eliot reading the poem is at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCVnuEWXQcg
