The Son replied, “I will:
A feeble body I will take;
This body men shall kill.”
Father, how great thy love to man,
To send thy Son from high!
How great thy love, O glorious Son,
To come, and bleed, and die!
LESSON XII.
THE VIRGIN MARY.
Luke, i. 26-55.
God told Adam and Eve that he would send his Son down some day to die for them. But Adam and Eve did not love God; for they were grown wicked.
