The overwhelming difficulty in the

A PRAYER.
BY HENRY VAN DYKE.
THESE are the gifts ask
OF thee, Spirit Serene:
Strength for the daily task,
Courage to face the road
Good cheer TO help me bear the trav-
eler's load,
And for the hours Of rest that come
between
An inward joy in all things heard
and seen.
These are the sins l 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-
Ow gray
on all the brightness of the com
mon day
In a world Of dreams I have chosen
my part,
To sleep for a season and hear no
word
OF true loves truth or Of light loves
art
And only the song of secret bird.
