FKOM THE EVENING GAzETfE.
The following, by Burns, is very beautiful
Prayer, under the pressure of violent anguish.
o! Thou Great Being What thou art
Surpasses me to know;
Yet sure am that known to thee
Are all thy works below.
Thy creature here before thee stands,
All wretched and distrest;
Yet sure those ills that wiring my soul
Obey thy high behest.
Sure thou, Almighty, cannot act
From cruelty or wrath
. free my weary eyes from tears,
Or close them fast in Death.
But i must afflicted be,
To suit some wise design
Then man my soul with firm resolves,
To bear and not repine.
