Reverend Keach:
[addressing the congregation at mass]
Now we hear the words of Jesus to lead us and encourage us in prayer. "Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father. Inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was enhung'red and ye gave me meat, I was thirsty and ye gave me drink, I was a stranger and ye took me in, naked and ye clothed me, I was sick and ye visited me, I was in prison...
Birkin:
[to himself, watching and listening from up in the belfry]
Look behind you, Keach.
Reverend Keach:
"... and you came unto me..."
Birkin:
That's what you're praying to. He doesn't want your prayers. He wants some answers. Did you feed the hungry, hm? Did you give drink to the thirsty? Do you... clothe the naked and the needy? What about me, eh? Ever offer me bed and board? You smug Yorkshire lot. I'll have a word wtih Him about the way you're treated me. He'll get you yet.
Reverend Keach:
"The King shall answer and say onto them: Verily I say unto you, in as much as ye have done it unto one of the least of these, my brethren, ye have done it unto me."
