. . . Would you be humble, daughter?
You must look up, not down, and see yourself
A paltry atom, sap-transmitting vein
Of Christ's vast vine; the pettiest joint and member Of His great body. . . .

. . . Let thyself die --
And dying, rise again to fuller life.
To be a whole is to be small and weak --
To be a part is to be great and mighty
In the one spirit of the mighty whole --
The spirit of the martyrs and the saints.

Saint's Tragedy, Act ii. Scene vi.
