| The Mother's lament to her daughter that the most innocent lamb, Jesus Christ, is neglected by his creatures in modern times. |
| Book 3 - Chapter 25 |
|
The Mother speaks: "My lament is that on this day the most innocent lamb was carried who best knew how to walk. On this day, that little boy was silent who best knew how to speak. On this day, the most innocent little boy who never sinned was circumcised. This is why, although I cannot be angry, still I seem to be angry because the supreme Lord who became a little boy is forgotten and neglected by his creatures." |
