<p>&quot;I tell you the truth,&quot; Jesus answered, &quot;this very night, <br />
before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.&quot; <br />
<br />
&quot;No!&quot; Peter insisted. &quot;Not even if I have to die with <br />
you! <strong>I will never deny you!</strong>&quot; Matthew 26:34-35<br />
<br />
Look at Peter! Who stronger than he? the honoured and <br />
trusted Companion of Incarnate Love, filled with sincere <br />
loyalty to the gracious Master. &quot;What! others may deny<br />
You, but I—never! <strong>Never shall 'traitor' be branded on <br />
my brow</strong>, or the guilty denial tremble on my lips!&quot; <br />
<br />
See, before long,<strong> the presumptuous boaster in an <br />
anguish of remorseful tears</strong>, a moral and spiritual <br />
shipwreck. &quot;How the mighty have fallen!&quot;<br />
<strong><br />
&quot;And he went outside and wept bitterly!&quot;</strong> Luke 22:62
