THESE are the gifts ask

Strength for the daily task,
Courage to face the road.
Good cheer to help me bear the tray

And for the hours of rest that come
between
An inward joy in all things heard
and seen.
These are the sins I fain
Would have thee take away:
Malice and cold disdain,
Hot anger, sullen hate,
SCOrn Of the lowly, envy Of the great.
And discomfort, that casts a shad-

on all the brightness of the com

In a world of creams I have chosen
my part
To sleep for a season and hear 10

And only the song of a secret bird.
