Pentecost Sunday!

It seems like it was just Ash Wednesday and tomorrow is already Pentecost Sunday. Naturally, I have a favorite quote to share for the occasion.

Round roll the weeks our hearts to greet,
With blissful joy returning;
for lo! the Holy Paraclete
On twelve bright brows sits burning."

Roman Breviary, Pentecost, Hymn Beata nobis gaudia at Lauds. (Tr. W. Blew) - Attributed to St. Hilary of Poitiers, 4th century.
