"The day when Jesus stood alone and felt the hearts of men like stone,
"and knew He came but to Atone --
"that day 'He held His peace.'
"They witnessed falsely to His word,
"they bound Him with a cruel cord, and mockingly called Him 'Lord';
"'but Jesus held His peace.'
"They spat upon Him in the face, they dragged Him on from place to place,
"they heaped upon Him all disgrace;
"'but Jesus held His peace.'
"My friend, have you for far much less, with rage, which you called righteousness,
"resented slights with great distress?
"Your Saviour 'held His peace!'" --L.S.P.
"Let me be a little sweeter -- Make my life a bit completer,
"by doing what I should do every minute of the day.
"Let me toil without complaining, not a humble task disdaining." --Anonymous
