THÉRÈSE BY FRANÇOIS MAURIAC
TRANSLATED BY ERIC SUTTON

PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATES

LORD have pity, O have pity on those who know not what they do. O Creator of the world, can there be any in whom the image of humanity is destroyed, even in the eyes of Him, who alone knows why they exist, HOW THEY HAVE MADE THEMSELVES WHAT THEY ARE, and how they could have made themselves otherwise.
