The cruelties inflicted by My oppressors have bowed Me down,
and turned My hair white. Shouldst thou present thyself before My throne, thou
wouldst fail to recognize the Ancient Beauty, for the freshness of His
countenance is altered and its brightness hath faded, by reason of the
oppression of the infidels. I swear by God! His heart, His soul, and His vitals
are melted!
