onthe dark street;they zwere silhouetted against the display  \nwindoe of a Catholic bookshop about ten feet behind them.Iprayed as I hurried toward the group.My arrival coincidedwith the puimotor attendant stooping to close the eyes of theragged,skin-and-bones derelict.Already a few persons zeereedging azeay.  \n“What can I do?”That thought persisted.  \n“Kneel beside that man,ask others to kneel with you.Pray.Love him noze in death as he zwas not loved when he lived.”I made many excuses as I pushed the thought from my mind.Istepped back,and as I did noticed a shadoe falling on thedead man's body.A large crucifix,floodlighted from behind,stood in the bookshop zwindoze.The shadoze of the cross fellupon the derelict.I moved toward the shop window.Aroundthe crucifix zwere
