"My burden is light," said the blessed Redeemer, a light burden indeed, which carries him that bears it.

What It Means
This is a placeholder explanation generated by the low-overhead model. It interprets ""My burden is light," said the blessed Redeemer, a light burden indeed, which carries him that bears it. I have looked through all nature for a resemblance of this, and seem to find a shadow of it in the wings of a bird, which are indeed borne by the creature, and yet support her flight towards heaven." in the context of "Reported in Josiah Hotchkiss Gilbert, Dictionary of Burning Words of Brilliant Writers (1895), p. 88" to mean that wisdom is timeless.
