He Loves Us as His Eyes

A written narration by Mariel on an episode in the biography of Lilias Trotter (everything was spelled correctly! I am leaving in her punctuation, etc., this time.):

I think my favorite part is when L.T. came across a woman who was tightly hugging a little girl. L.T. stopped + said "You love that little girl." "Yes," she said, "She is as my eyes." L.T. said, "God loves us that way too." She passed on, but she heard a boy tell another, "God loves me like His Eyes! Hooray!"

I say hooray too.
