Words from the poem 'The Three Kings' by Edith Nesbit (1858-1924). The text describes the journey of the three kings to Palestine, bearing gifts of worth, (precious things, frankincense, and myrrh).
The central theme reflects on their realization that they were 'fools' to think their journey ended in darkness, eventually finding the new-born King in the manger and offering praise 'Glory to God the Father most high'.
