- or 'Jesus accepts his burden' - is one of 9 pieces from 'the birth of the Lord', culminating in the wonderful 'God among us'. Some of the pieces (the angels, the magi, the shepherds) relate to the story of the nativity, but others like this piece are meditations on Jesus's destiny and purpose. The final chords in this piece symbolise 'me voici' - 'Here I am'.
Messaien gives a very detailed specification for the registration of this piece, which can be followed exactly at Metz.
