The salient feature of the law as given by Moses unto his people, the Jews, is that of strict cleanliness of mind and body. In this we find a similarity to the oft-repeated behest of Gautama, the Buddha, who constantly admonished his followers to keep their hearts pure and their minds and bodies clean.
Men do not watch other men whimper and beg for mercy little rascals who have been nipped in a greater schemer's trap without beginning to wonder, soon or late, how much of man is warped and twisted; and he had been watching Archie Wickersham now for months.

Notwithstanding that my disappointments had been many and oft-repeated, I bore up under the infliction as meekly as I could, and never yet had I felt in my heart a rebellious feeling against God.
