THE.LITTLE MAIDEN'S PRAYER

THE EsLITTLE MAIDEN'S PRAYER.
The sunsets smile had left the sky,
The moon rose calm and fair,
AS low little maiden knelt
To breathe her nightly prayer.
And thus her brief petition rose,
In simple words and few
"Dear Lord, leasesend us blessed dreams,
And let them all come true"
Oh, have stood in temples grand,
Where in the rainbow gloom
Rose pompous prayers from priestly lips
Through clouds of dense perfume.
But never one has seemed to me
So guileiess, pure and new
Dear Lord, please send us blessed dreams,
And let them all come true"
All, little maiden, kneeling there.
Beneath the sunset skies,
What need have we of other prayer
Than yours, SO sweet and wise9
Henceforth breathe no studied plea,
But bow and pray with you
"Dear Lord, please send us blessed dreams,
And let them all come true"
