Note	"The text of The falcon ... forms a progression from the implied violence of the opening Psalm to the hope of peace expressed in the closing passage taken from the book of Revelation; a contrast between Old and New Testament attitudes. The core of the work is the medieval Corpus Christi carol, which tells in richly symbolic imagery of the Christian sacrifice that makes possible this transformation of violence into peace."--T.p. verso.
