IN THE MIDST OF A SHOWER OF BULLETS It was at Worth, on the 4th of August Au-gust 1S70. Eighty of us belonging to the first company had forded the rivulet of Sauerbach and marched, dripping with water, through a low, marshy meadow. J Suddenly the flashing fire and thunder of battle roared and raged round about us as we were veritably drenched in the midst of a shower of bullets. Some of my comrades fell here, others there some dead and others seriously wounded. wound-ed. I had just previously felt perfect repentance, re-pentance, but I do not know. I was overcome with a fear and anxietv. sim ply indescribable. And what frightened I me was not the thought that I should never see my beloved ones any more, or that I should find my grave in foreign soil, and neither the dread of a painful death, but It was this thought that rose vividly in my mind: You may have to appear before your divine Judge at any moment, before the Almighty and the All-Just, and your lot will be decided for all eternity either eternally happy or eternally unhappy, either saved and eternally to heaven, or damned and eternally in hell! I trembled and quivered in every limb. Then in the horrible anxiety and apprehension, appre-hension, there came spontaneously to my lips these words: "Remember, most loving Virgin Mary, that it was never known that any one who fled to thy protection. implored thy help, and sought thine intercession, was left forsaken." |
