What do you call yourself?" the Fawn said at last. Such a soft sweet voice it had! " I wish I knew! " thought poor Alice. She answered, rather sadly, "Nothing, just now."" Think again, " it said: "that won't do." Alice thought, but nothing came of it. "Please, would you tell me what you call yourself?" she said timidly, "I think that might help a little.""

Do you think he cares to see only kneeling figures, and to hear only tones of prayer - and that He does not also love to see the lambs leaping in the sunlight, and to hear the merry voices of the children as they roll among the hay?
