Count not our worldliness amiss
Till we are through.
Remind us not in this brief hour
Of dearth or dole,
Nor touch us till the men of power
Kick every goal.
Then, Lord, thy servants all, we'r dine
In gay array;
Distend our girdles far with meat and vine
Talk o'er the play.
Our lips shall quaff the best champagne,
Madeira much;
Our stomachs shall be filled again
With quail and such.
None shall go empty, none shall rise
Unsatisfied;
No want shall hover in our skies,
No riffs divide.
Now, we beseech Thee, Lord, this day,
When surfeit's sure,
Give us sweet grace to send away
Food for thy poor. w. B. d.
