God's word and a furry friend were good company during a recent sleepless night.
"O Lord my God, do Thou Thy holy will,
I will lie still,
I will not stir, lest I forsake Thine arm
And break the charm
That lulls me, clinging to my Father's breast
In perfect rest."
Quoted by a bed-ridden young woman in
The Daisy Chain, or Aspirations by Charlotte M. Yonge
