9. Pity! By the force of the Almighty Lord's car-wheels, this poor young deer is separated from its class, kith and kin, and well-wishers, has sought refuge with me and regards me as its parents, brothers, cousins, and mates of kindred class; it knows no one else, and trusts fully in me; and knowing that it is sinful to forsake the fugitive, I ought, without any feeling of inconvenience, to look to its protection, nourishment, cheerfulness and affectionate treatment.
