O dearly beloved brethren, and most favoured children, hear me! Hear the voice of your father! We promise great things; greater still are promised to us. Let us observe the former; let us strive after the latter. Pleasure is short; punishment is eternal. There is little suffering; there is infinite glory. Many are called; but few are chosen. Nevertheless, all will receive according to their works. Amen. “Children, let us do good whilst we have time”. (Gal. vi.)
