XIV — The Body Of Jesus Is Laid
​In The Tomb.

Awake!  Why do you sleep, O Lord?  Rise up!  Do not reject us forever!  Why do you hide your face; why forget our pain and misery?  For our soul has been humiliated in the dust; our belly is pressed to the earth.  Rise up, help us!   (Psalm 44:24-27)

Christ suffered; let us die to sin.  Christ arose; let us live for God.  Christ left this world to go to the Father; let not our heart cleave to anything here, but follow him to heaven.

Our Head hung on the cross; let us crucify the desire of the flesh.  He lay in the tomb; let us be buried with him and forget the things of the past.  He is seated in heaven; let us transfer our desire to the things above.

​Of his kingdom there will be no end; let us not fear the end of this life at all, for by his wounds we were healed (Isaiah  53:5).

   --  Saint Augustine of Hippo
