Octava Statio – Eighth Station

Mark 15: 21   Jesus is helped to carry the Cross by Simon of Cyrene

They enlisted a passer-by, Simon of Cyrene, father of Alexander and Rufus, who was coming in from the country, to carry his cross.

                When we walk alone
		We can trip
		On the feet of those who help us.

		When we leave home
		A mile, a thousandfold,
		And travel far away,

		The soul can return in an instant
		And haunt the footsteps of a stranger.

                Pan gerthyn agan honan treweythyow
		Y trebuchya
		War dhewdroes an re na
		Neb a’gan gweres

		Pan dhiberthya a dre
		Ha viajya

		Mildir   -   milweyth
			         a-bell
		yn unn pols
		y hyll an enev
			dehweles
		ha trobla
		   kammow
			       den ankoth.
