An Old Health Prayer

In the quaint old town of Cheliter, England, built by the Romans long ago, there is this inscription on the walls of the Chester Cathedral: Give me a good digestion, Lord, And also something to digest, Give me a healthy bodY, Lord, And sense to |eep it at its best.

Give me a healthy mind, good Lord, To keep the good and pure in sight' Which seeing sin is not appalled, But finds a way to set it right.

Give me a mind that is not bored, That does not whimper, whine, or sigh, Don't let me worry overmuch, About the fussy thing cdled I.

Give me a sense of humor, Lord, Give me the grace to see a joke, To get some happiness from life, And pass it on to other folk.

The Salutation Of The Dawn

Listen to the exhortation of the dawn ! Look to this day

For it is life, the very life of lifeIn its brief course lie all the verities And realities of your existence: The glory of actio4, The bliss of growth, The splendor of beauty: For yesterday is but a dream, And tomorrow is only a vision; But today, well lived, makes Every yesterday a dream of happiness, And every tomorrow a vision of hoPe. Look well therefore, to this day ! Such is the salutation of the dawn !
