Let us consider how gentle He is toward all His creation...
Even the smallest of animals abide in peace and harmony.
All these things the great Maker and Master has appointed
To be in peace and harmony, doing good unto all things,
But more especially unto us,
Who have fled for refuge to his mercies,
Through our Lord Jesus Christ,
To whom be glory and majesty for ever and ever.
Amen.
