  • Bernard of Clairvaux Prostrate, see Thy cross I grasp,
    And Thy pierced feet I clasp;
    Gracious Jesus, spurn me not;
    On me, with compassion fraught,
    Let Thy glances fall.

    Be thou whole, say openly:
    I forgive thee all.

Still less can he afford to take all the consequences, including the vitiating of his temper and loss of self control. Yield larger things to which you can show no more than equal right; and yield lesser ones, though clearly your own. Better give your path to a dog than be bitten by him in contesting for the right. Even killing the dog would not cure the bite.
