"And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe. "And when they had plaited a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews! "And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the head." Matthew 27:28:30. * O my Lord God, could it be there, Just for me and only me: Through the hands of benighted men Thou didst bear the shame and pain! If I do deny Thee, O Lord, Surely, me Thou wilt deny. * On Thy Head wast a thorny crown: Just for me and only me; On Thyself wast a scarlet robe: Thou didst bear the shame and pain; If I do deny Thee, O Lord, Surely, me Thou wilt deny. * Considering Thy Aim of suffering: Life to give in its fulness; How could I alienate myself From Thy Grace and Love and Peace? If I do deny Thee, O Lord, Surely, me Thou wilt deny. * Nought on Earth shall take me from Thee; Not the riches of this world; Not the shame of bearing Thy Name; Not even the threat of death; If I do deny Thee, O Lord, Surely, me Thou wilt deny. Amen.
