I will hide from people's eyes whatever good I am able to do so
that God Himself may be my reward. I will be like a tiny violet hidden
in the grass, which does not hurt the foot that treads on it, but
diffuses its fragrance and, forgetting itself completely, tries to
please the person who has crushed it underfoot. This is very difficult
for human nature, but God's grace comes to one's aid. (255)
