The Kindness of God: The Holy Spirit in Piers Plowman.

A brief article designed for an audience not exclusively academic, surveying what the poem says about the Holy Spirit, the third Person of the Trinity: names, metaphors, and the work of the Spirit, including the incarnation, the giving of gifts at Pentecost, and caring for the human person and for all creatures. Quotations are in modern English. [MCD]
