I suppose I ought to be distressed that I so often fall asleep during meditation and thanksgiving after Holy Communion, but I reflect that little children, asleep or awake, are equally dear to their parents; that to perform operations doctors put their patients to sleep; and finally, that ‘The Lord knoweth our frame. He remembereth that we are but dust.’ Ps. 102: 14.
