Explore "Simon's Feast" by Frances Ellen Watkins Harper on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
He is coming, she said, to Simon's feast, / The prophet of Galilee, / Though multitudes around him throng / In longing his face to see.
He enters the home as Simon's guest, / But he gives no welcome kiss; / He brings no water to bathe his feet -- / Why is Simon so remiss?
