A Man That Is Not Afraid Of

The Whole Life Of Christ Was A Continual Passion; Others Die Martyrs But Christ Was Born A Martyr. He Found A Golgotha Even In Bethlehem, Where He Was Born; For To His Tenderness Then The Straws Were Almost As Sharp As The Thorns After, And The Manger As Uneasy At First As His Cross At Last. His Birth And His Death Were But One Continual Act, And His Christmas Day And His Good Friday Are But The Evening And Morning Of One And The Same Day. And As Even His Birth Is His Death, So Every Action And Passage That Manifests Christ To Us Is His Birth, For Epiphany Is Manifestation.

And What Is So Intricate, So Entangling As Death? Who Ever Got Out Of A Winding Sheet?

As He That Fears God Fears Nothing Else, So He That Sees God Sees Everything Else.

Though Truth And Falsehood Be Near Twins, Yet Truth A Little Elder Is.

Death, Thou Shalt Die.
