The Captives

CHAPTER IV
33/61

This is no mere warning spoken from the lips only by one who, from sheer weekly necessity, may seem to you formal and official; it is as urgent, as deeply from the heart as though it were a summons from a messenger who has come to you directly from his Master.

I beg of you to consider your responsibility, which is greater than that of other men.

We are brothers bound together by a great expectation, a great preparation, a great trust.

We are in training for a day when more will be demanded of us than of any other men upon the earth.

That is no light thing.
