paroisse, s'eeve un concert douloureux de ouanges
ct de regrets
Chacun Sc demande ce que won't devenir les NAL
heureux qu'elle aimait tant?
VOLTA certes peloge plus pur que lie peuple puisse
adresser cette pieuse femme que Ia mort Went
d'arrachef ramour ct pestime des viyants.
Uu des plus grands orateurs de lEglise, Massillon
a dit
Nous portions tous en- naissant, Ia mort dams
notre sein Il semble que nous ayons suc6 dams les
entrailles de mares poison lent avec lequel
. nous Yenens au monde, qui nous fait languir lei
bas les autres plus. les autre moins, mas qu fnit
g touiiours par le trepas. Nous mourons tots les
g ours, chaaue instant nous derehe une partie de
IS notre vie ct ueus ayance dun pas Yers ls tau-
g bean!"
Tn tomheau, mysterieuse Unite placee entire les
deux mondes, VOLTA tout ce qui nous reste aujour-
dhui de madame Ricord ct pourtant, pour nous tous
ellie nest ct ne janais morte. Car on nest vra
nent mort que lorsqaon est oublie ct ceux qui We
aeraient sur cet1e terre Rosina Rsler, CONNIE une
sainte, ne loublironf jamais.
Pour tous, Resna Risler est an ciel OH elle nous
attend lou ellie prie pour nous
