Halaman 90 - ... us courage; and guidance, so that after the conflict we have come to these days of peace. We thank Thee that the wrath of war has been stilled, that brother no longer strives against brother, that once again we have one country and one flag. May Thy blessing be upon us as a people, that we may be Thy people, true and righteous in all our ways, tender and patient in our charity, though resolute for the right; careful more for the downtrodden than for ourselves, eager to forward the interests of...
Halaman 103 - Politics did not enter into the matter at all. I am not egotist enough to suppose all this significance should be given because I was the object of it.
