He is love.

A man or a child would not torture his horse, his dog, or his cat.
[73]Suppose we have a dog that becomes mad and tries to bite every one in the neighborhood.

He must be killed; but we would not torment the poor brute by putting it into a slow fire.

We would kill it in the easiest way, so that it would not suffer much pain.

Why would a person do this?
Because his sense of justice and love would deter him from doing anything else.
