I thought to myself With what tongue shall I address such majesty seeing that all men ought to tremble in the presence of even an earthly prince Who am I that I should lift up mine eyes or raise my hands to the divine Majesty The angels surround him. At his nod the earth trembles. And shall I a miserable little pygmy say I want this I ask for that For I am dust and ashes and full of sin and I am speaking to the living eternal and the true God.
