<h2><SPAN name="Prayer" id="Prayer"></SPAN>A PRAYER</h2>
<p>The day returns and brings us the petty round of irritating concerns and
duties. Help us to play the man, help us to perform them with laughter
and kind faces; let cheerfulness abound with industry. Give us to go
blithely on our business all this day, bring us to our resting beds
weary and content and undishonoured; and grant us in the end the gift of
sleep.</p>
