I must, however, dance upon it" - it must be with such thoughts about effecting my salvation that Thou didst formerly accustom Thy tender feet to tread on the mountain ridges. Otherwise, O Lord, why dance on stony surfaces, when there are such places as heavenly mansions, flower-beds and pedestals? |
