RHYMED REVIEWS Death Comes for the Archbishop By Willa Cather. Alfred A. Knopf. Ove bishop, Jean Marie Latour, With Pére Vaillant as f. Achates, To regions vast, remote, obscure Removed his lares and penates. Jo Santa Fe in ’51 He rode as Vicar Apostolic, His diocese a realm of sun And canyons deep and diabolic. He made his way through mountain snows And all the desert’s thaumaturgy Among the stately Navajos, Among his somewhat rowdy clergy. He learned the trails of plain and height; He knew that pearl of scouts, Kit Car- son, And scoundrels yellow, red and white, Adept in murder, theft and arson. A friend and healer, quick to aid The sad or sinful, high and lowly, For many years he toiled and prayed To make men true, to make lives holy. For many years he labored where The peaks glow redly, sunset-gilded, Before he slept within the fair Cathedral that his faith had builded. The book is rich in herds and flocks, Mimosas, Mexican rancheros, Pucblos, mesas, tawny rocks, Rebosos, bandas, big sombreros.
