598. My advocates

```

Doubt says to me:

“I want to be your advocate.

When happiness tortures your heart,

I shall bravely defend your cause.”

Faith says to me:

“I wish to be your advocate.

When wild miseries torture your mind,

I shall unreservedly defend your cause.”

God says to me:

“I shall be your advocate.

When nothingness saddens your mind

And plenitude puzzles your heart,

I shall immediately defend your cause.”
