what involves, for some defenceless creature, wild terror and a death of agony: deeper, if the hunter be one
who has pledged himself to preach to men the Religion of universal Love: deepest of all, if it be one of those
'tender and delicate' beings, whose very name serves as a symbol of Love--'thy love to me was wonderful,
passing the love of women'-- whose mission here is surely to help and comfort all that are in pain or sorrow!
'Farewell, farewell! but this I tell To thee, thou Wedding-Guest! He prayeth well, who loveth well Both man
and bird and beast.
He prayeth best, who loveth best All things both great and small; For the dear God who loveth us, He made
and loveth all.'
