Wei,

An interesting observation vis-a-vis Pound. What you have described is
precisely what seems to have occured with Pound and the (in places very
vehement) Old Testament.

Tim Romano

P.S. The name Old Testament refers to the hebrew scriptures as subsumed into
the Christian Bible.  I use this term advisedly, in reference to Pound's
daily reading of the Christian Bible as a boy.
