And Jesus Said.

I remember a case in Ireland, where a Testament had been torn up, and the leaves thrown to the winds. A poor man found one of the leaves, and picked it up. He could read, and saw, “And Jesus said”; “and Jesus answered and said;” “and Jesus said,” and so on. He said to himself, “What! has the blessed Lord said so many things, and I did not know them!” Struck by these simple but solemn words, “And Jesus said,” he went off to the neighboring town and bought a Testament; believed what Jesus said, was converted, and was happy in having a known Saviour.
