Our Prince and King

I have heard the wailing cry of the widow over the dead body of her husband, and his ear, which was ever open to the cry of the poor and needy, was not closed to her pitiful supplication—he stretched forth his arm and, at a word, the Spirit once more took possession of his body to sojourn a little longer on Earth for the protection of his wife and child. He of whom I speak is our Prince and King. To him we willingly submit.
