402. I am not going to talk back

I am not going to talk back
To anyone any more.
No, not even to God.
Let Him scold me,
Let Him insult me.
I shall prove to Him
That I have not one,
But three striking qualities:
I know how to hear,
I know how to bear,
I know how to transfigure.
    Of course,
It is for our mutual good.

If I become perfect,
God will definitely be proud of me.
If I become perfect,
I won’t have to fight
Constantly against Him.
