These words of Jesus from Matthew's gospel are echoed in those he will speak to Saint Paul on the road to Damascus - "I am Jesus whom you are persecuting."
What we do to the least, we do to the Lord.

"...Christ plays in ten thousand places,
Lovely in limbs, and lovely in eyes not his.
To the Father through the features of men's faces."
