?ioil can be pleaaed with thai bloody scene on the
erosa I could not be pleaaed to ?ce ?ay only child
suffer thus and 1 am riot nearly as perfect as God."

round hrm. when ? gre?t mad do*, with foaming

not until th.? fatal poison goes into his own blood.

like't? build the Maxtoraith a monument higher

I look up..? another scene the mocking crown of

and sinking beneath it, hands and feet adjusted.
While th?? nails ar.? driven crushing through, the
broken hearl crying out: "My Ootl my God. why
hast Thou forsaken met" As l look, the elementi
grow dark and an ear?thquak? shakes the earth. I
