PRAYER FOR WORLD PEACE

Lord, not Thy work, the World's calamities,

But Man's. If Human Will revolt from Thine,

It flees Thy region, where the stars all shine

With longing to let down the Azure's Peace—

To dash its hosts from summits into seas,

Where Empires are the breakers. There the brine

Is anguish, and there Triumph leaves no sign,
