“Then the saintly will say to him, ‘Lord, when did we see you
hungry and we fed you, or you were thirsty and we gave you
drink?’ And the King replied and told them, ‘I am telling you,
that whatever you do for one of these my little brethren, for me
you have done that.’

Lives of the
Saints
– ideal for
Richmond
20 May 1959: “If he
