The body of Jesus is laid in a stranger’s tomb. He Who in this world had not whereon to rest His head, would have no grave of His own after death. You whose heart is still attached to this world, despise it that you may not perish with it.

O Jesus,  Thou hast singled me out from the world,  what then shall I seek in it?  Thou hast created me for Heaven, what then shall I desire upon earth?  Depart from me, deceitful world, with thy vanities!   Henceforth I will walk the way of the Cross  traced out for me by my Redeemer,  and journey onward to my heavenly home,  where my rest and my joy shall be forever.
