Most people know the story of the Three Wise Men of the East, and how they travelled from far away to offer their gifts at the manger in Bethlehem. But how many have heard the story of the other wise man, who also saw the star on its rising and set out to follow it? Yet, he did not arrive with his brethren to worship the young child, Jesus.
Of the great desire of this fourth pilgrim to see Jesus, and how it was denied, yet remarkably accomplished in the denial, of his many wanderings and the probations of his soul, of the long way of his seeking, and the strange way of his finding the one whom he sought is the story told herein. It is a tale from fragments of the Hall of Dreams in the palace of the heart of mankind.
