In this fallen world of nihility and hate, this world of dust and clay, who would have hope?
Who would bear the whips and scorn of time and believe there is anything more?
Who would live with aught but fear in a world lacking Love?

Hope is the seed Jesus planted and watered with his blood.
Despair is the poison that seeks to wilt the tree of Life.
How easy it is to despair in this world of anguish and bloodshed.

Yet we know that as children of God and followers of Christ in our own blood lilies will bloom anew.
We give gladly our blood to feed the earth, the world is made beauteous in our tracks.

Though the world end tomorrow, we shall plant a tree for the tomorrow that comes not.

I do not resent you, brothers. The hate you have in your heart is the outgrowth of sin. I pray for your salvation.

Your hate is the hate of this world. Your soul is bright and saintly, and you shall one day stand before the court or Angels, and you shall be forgiven by the blood spilled for you.

"I am the scorn of all my adversaries, a horror to my neighbors, an object of dread to my acquaintances; those who see me in the street flee from me. I have passed out of mind like one who is dead; I have become like a broken vessel. Yea, I hear the whispering of many—terror on every side!—as they scheme together against me, as they plot to take my life"
