From Moore's Life of Byron THE PRAYER OF NATURE.

BY LORD BYRoN-DEC. IStl6. Father of Light! great God of Heaven!
 Hearst the accents of despair2 Can guilt like mans be ere forgiveni
 Can vice atone for crimes by prayer? Father of Light! on Thee call
 Thou see'st my soul is dark within: Thou who canst mark the sparrow's fall, Avert from mo the death sin. No shrine seek, to sects unknown;
 Oh point to me the path oftuth Thy dread Omnipotence own,
 Spare, yet amend, the faults of youth. Let bigots rear gloomy fane,
 Let superstition hail the pile, Let priests, to spread their sable reign, With tales of mystic rites beguile, Shall man confne his Makers sway To Gothic domes of moulderng stonef Thy temple is the face of day:
 Earth, ocean, heaven, thy boundless throne Shall man condemn his race to hell
 Unless they bow in pompous formJ Tell us that all, for one who fell,
 Must perish in the mingling storms Shall each pretend to reach the skies. Yet doom his brother to expire, Whose soul different hope supplies, Or doctrines less severe inspire Shall these by creeds they cant expound, Prepare fancied bliss or wo Shall reptiles, grovelling on the ground, Their great Creators purpose know2 Father no prophets law seek
 Thy laws in natures works appear; own myself corrupt and weak
 Yet will pray, for thou wilt hear. Thou who canst guide the wandering star, Thro' trackless realms of nther's space, Who calm'st the elemental war,
 Whose hand from pole to pole trace ;- Tllon, who in wisdom placed me here, Who, when thou wilt, can take me hence, An ! whilst tread this earthly sphere, Extend to me thy wide defence. To Thee, my God to Thee call.
 Whatever veal or wo betide, By thy command rise or fall
 In thy protection confde. If when this dust, to dust restored,
 My soul shall float on airy wing, How shall thy glorious name adcfed, Inspire her feeble voice to sing!
