The Penitent Ravine

He is the most magnanimous of captains.

There never was His like (among) the choicest of princes.

He is always to be found in the thickest part of the battle.

When the wind blows cold He always takes the bleak side of the hill.

The heaviest end of the cross lies ever on His shoulders.

If He bids us carry a burden, He carries it also.

If there is anything that is gracious, generous, kind, and tender, yea lavish and superabundant in love, you always find it in Him.

His service is life, peace, and joy.

Oh, that you would enter on it at once!
