Sister Dora gave up her life to nursing sick people. At the head of her bed a bell was fixed by which sufferers could summon her at any hour of the night. As she arose at the sound of the signal, she used to murmur these words, as if they were a charm: "The Master is come and is calling for thee." It was as if the sick sufferer faded away, and in the couch she saw the Face that was marred with a world's anguish. Christ's Face across her fancy came, and gave the battle to her hands.
"He that oppresseth the poor reproacheth his Maker: but he that honoureth him hath mercy on the poor." Proverbs 14:31
