His companions, who had also heard the voice but had not seen the ... he saw, just as Anthony had. Paul's Epistles was the first thing he saw. "Not in reveling and drunkenness, not in lust and wantonness, not in quarrels and rivalries. Rather, arm yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, spend no more thought on nature and nature's appetites" was the first passage he read. In that moment, his conversion had hit its high point. "The consequence of the conversion was baptism ...

O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover the pale forms of their patriot dead: help us to drown the thunder of their guns with ... sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it- For oursakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it in the Spirit of love, of him ...
