14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

Sometimes I tie up my zeppelin.  :cool:  Seriously, this is actually one of my favorite knots.   
I come from under the hill, and under the hills and over the hills my paths led.  And through the air, I am she that walks unseen.

I learned this knot back in the late 70s.  I never tied one again... but I would have a couple of times if I could have remembered it.  As it is a Carrick bend worked those times.  It's useful anytime the stress is great enough to jam a square knot.
