I reprimanded my soul seven times! The first time: When I attempted to exalt myself by exploiting the weak. The second time: When I feigned a limp before those who were crippled. The third time: When, given a choice, I elected the easy rather than the difficult' The fourth time: When I made a mistake I consoled myself with the mistakes of others. The fifth time: When I was docile because of fear and then claimed to be strong in patience. The sixth time: When I held my garments upraised to avoid the mud of life. The seventh time: When I stood in hymnal to God and considered the singing a virtue. |
