226. CRUSHED PRIDE

Father, why have You
  Crushed my pride?

“Daughter, so you will mingle and dance
    With the dust.”

  Father, why do You want me
    To mingle and dance with the dust?

“Daughter, because I want
    Your humility-heart
      To be My victory-banner,
    Your purity-life
      To be My tallest mast.”
