    I am giving you examples of the fact that this creature man, who
    in his own selfish affairs is a coward to the backbone, will
    fight for an idea like a hero. . . . I tell you, gentlemen, if
    you can shew a man a piece of what he now calls God's work to do,
    and what he will later call by many new names, you can make him
    entirely reckless of the consequences to himself personally.

By the way,
The works of women are symbolical.
We sew, sew, prick our fingers, dull out sight,
Producing what? A pair of slippers, sir,
To put on when you're weary--or a stool
To tumble over and vex you . . . curse that stool!
Or else at best, a cushion where you lean
And sleep, and dream of something we are not,
But would be for your sake. Alas, alas!
This hurts most, this . . . that, after all, we are paid
The worth of our work, perhaps.

And the Sons of Mary smile and are blessed--they know the angels
are on their side:
They know in them is the Grace confessed, and for them are the
Mercies multiplied;
They sit at the Feet, they hear the Word, they see how truly the
Promise runs;
They have cast their burden upon the Lord, and--the Lord He lays
it on Martha's sons!
