Pascal

Blaise Pascal awaits his last call 
beneath Saint Etienne-du-Mont's tall 
columns and old rood screen.  God's nature, 
pray, ups the odds on his last wager.

A very intelligent man, he died too young from complicated disorders. You have written about him well here.

I understand this one a bit better since you talked to me about Pascal! So did you exhaust all your poems on Paris. We sure can use all the inspiration we can get as poets!
