THE MAN BORN TO BE KING
Sir.-Your correspondent "Argosy" writes very dogmatically for one, who on his own confession, has no use for dogma. He says that the plays in the series The Man Born to be King are not true. How does he know? Miss Sayers happens to be a lay theologian of outstanding brilliance, besides being a playwright, and her treatment of her subject matter is in harmony with history. The discrepencies that occur in the narratives of the evangelists merely prove the accuracy of their report, I would describe The Man Born to be
Amg as a work of genius.-
