Thomas Aquinas

So he continues, "Now you have come to see me and in only seeing my disease, you are afraid," but perhaps you feel obliged to help me. But do not be afraid, because I haven't asked you for help in anything, nor do I even request you to assist me with money. This is the meaning of, "Have I said: Bring me and give me a gift from your property?" Nor have I sought aid from you in war against enemies, and so he adds, "Free me from the clutches of an enemy, or ransom me from hand of the mighty?"
