The wound, though it is not death, may be a great loss. We can see what the loss of one tooth is. The dentist may put in a new tooth, but there will never be the same joy as the own tooth. That is gone. Or if a man has lost his leg, however well made the artificial leg may be, it will never be as good as his own leg. The wounded man may have lost what can never be replaced. If all the territory is gained, it can never be given back to him. Our appreciation should be so great that it is enough to make up to him whatever he has lost.
