Unemployment, with its injustice for the man who seeks and
thirsts for employment, who begs for labour and cannot get it,

in his own selfish affairs is a coward to the backbone, will
fight for an idea like a hero. . . . I tell you, gentlemen, if

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!

first. . . . No longer diverted by other emotions, I work the way
a cow grazes.
