~. PETER AND THE BASK ETS
st. Peter from the door of heaven, one day
Sped two young angels on their happy way,
For the first time to see the world in May
Both bearing baskets.
They were to bring back flowers more fragrant
far
Than budding rose and blooming hawthorn are;
They were to bring the praise of all the star
Back in their baskets.
The Angel of THANKSGIVING, full of glee,
Donned huge hamper half as large as he;
But the Collector of Petitions, see,
With u small basket.
When they returned st. Peter, as before,
Sat with his golden keys beside the door;
But each appeared to be in trouble sore
About his basket.
The angel of Petitions bore a sack
Cram full and bound uncouthly on his back
Yet even then it seemed that he had lack
OF bag and basket.
The angel of Thanksgiving blushed to feel
The empty lightness of his mighty creel;
But there" he muttered, turning on his heel,
To hide his basket.
Then spoke st. Peter when again you go
On paper gathering, you will better know
That mems petitions in the world below
Fill a big basket.
But when you go to gather up their thanks
For prayers well answered and forgiven pranks,
For health restored and disentaged hanks,
Your smallest basketp
