my LORD GOD , my thanks for making me an animalso tame, peaceful,humble, and hardworking to serve my brothers-men and women-in their needs andtheir difficulties, i do not understand why, since they are created in your image and likeness, they have not those eyes of tenderness, of goodwill, of understanding, that would see us as we really are, and not as they would wish that we were, as their caprices, follies or bad temper takes them.
humbly i recognise that, like my rational brothers, i have my defects and qualities, my weaknesses as well as my desire to give them greater and better service. but like them i have my sensibilities, my hours of anguish and despair; ialso need love, affection, care and patience
the pity is LORD, that no understanding the limits of my strength, they put such heavy burdens on my back, beyond my energy and powers. may they remember LORD, that on this back so beaten, brused and wounded YOU sent the Mother of you Son, she who left there the cross, the mark of her tears, and rode upon me so delicately and meekly.
how many times have inot helped man to carry his load, without his feeling my hunger my thirst, or giving me a liitle time to recover from my weariness and restore my lost energies.
