The Three Kings (Poem)
"The Three Kings" is a narrative poem by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow that follows Melchior, Gaspar, and Baltasar as they ride westward beneath a blazing star, seeking the newborn King of the Jews. Guided through indifferent crowds and the suspicious court of Herod, the three Wise Men press on until the star halts over Bethlehem. There, in a lamplit stable, they lay gold, frankincense, and myrrh at the feet of a child whose mother watches over him with equal measures of joy and dread.
