Wrapped in devotion and heedless of their rage, he is like Stephen, when he kneeled down among his yelling murderers, and cried with a loud voice, 'Lord! lay not this sin to their charge. So here we have the strongest expression of the perfect consent of the whole inward nature in submission and quietness of confidence before God. That silence is first a silence of the will.
