"His [My] thoughts said, 'The way is rough.'
His [My] Father said, 'But every step bringeth thee nearer to thy Home.'
His [My] thoughts said, 'The fight is fierce.'
His [My] Father said, 'He who is near to his Captain is sure to be a target for the archers.'
His [My] thoughts said, 'The night is long.'
His [My] Father said, 'But joy cometh in the morning.'"
