Excerpt from The Test
By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another. John xiii: 35.
The long shadows, sloping eastward, tell Of the declining day. The cooling breeze begins to blow in from the sea, and the dusty flowers that dot the Syrian desert lift their heads as the moist fingers Of the Wind caress them. In a quiet place without the city, Where the rumble of traffic reaches the ear only as a confused murmur, a Galilean peasant has gathered about him a little company of common folk, and is talking to them. He is speaking in the homely vernacular Of the people, and they listen with wistful attention to the simple words that fall from his lips. There is no attempt at elo quence or florid rhetoric. As gently as a shep herd speaks to the lambs of his flock, this Gali lean talks to the men and Women Who are clustered about him.
