I had trouble with the Twenty-Second Canto.

It opened up with stanzas that seemed to discuss the intersection of finance and military and the costs of war. There’s also an interesting visual:

NO MEMBER OF THE MILITARY
OF WHATEVER RANK
IS PERMITTED WITHIN THE WALLS
OF THIS CLUB

The above stanza was within a cartouche designed to look like a sign hanging as if from a nail.

But then… a reference to a rabbi.

Knowing as one does Pound’s anti-semitic views, any mention of rabbis tends leave one feeling sick in the stomach.
