More From John Milton

O lord, thou knowest that which is best for us; let this or that be done, as thou shalt please. give what thou wilt, how much thou wilt, and when thou wilt. deal with me as thou thinkest best. place me where thou wilt, and deal with me in all things just as thou wilt. behold, i am thy servant, prepared for all things: i desire not to live unto myself, but unto thee; and oh, that i could do it worthily and perfectly!
Giving Justice Preparation
This having learnt, thou hast attained the sum of wisdom; hope no higher, though all the stars thou knew'st by name, and all th'ethereal powers, all secrets of the deep, all nature's works, or works of god in heav'n, air, earth, or sea, and all the riches of this world enjoy'dst, and all the rule, one empire; onlyadd deeds to thy knowledge answerable, add faith, add virtue, patience, temperance, add love, by name to come called charity, the soul of all the rest: then wilt thou not be loath to leave this paradise, but shalt possess a paradise within thee, happier far.
Patience Stars Sea
First shalt thou take out the holy pin. then shalt thou count to three, no more-no less. three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. five is right out. once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy holy hand grenade of antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it.
Naughty Sight Hands
Only add deeds to thy knowledge answerable, add faith, add virtue, patience, temperance, add love, by name to come call'd charity, the soul of all the rest; then wilt thou not be loath to leave this paradise, but shall possess a paradise within thee, happier far.
Names Soul Add
Lord! thou art with thy people still; they see thee in the night-watches, and their hearts burn within them as thou talkest with them by the way. and thou art near to those that have not known thee; open their eyes that they may see thee--see thee weeping over them, and saying, "ye will not come unto me that ye might have life"--see thee hanging on the cross and saying, "father, forgive them, for they know not what they do"--see thee as thou wilt come again in thy glory to judge them at the last. amen.
Art Prayer Father
Ecclesiastes names thee almighty, the maccabees name thee creator, the epistle to the ephesians names thee liberty, baruch names thee immensity, the psalms name thee wisdom and truth, john names thee light, the book of kings names thee lord, exodus names thee providence, leviticus sanctity, esdras justice, creation names thee god, man names thee father; but solomon names thee compassion, which is the most beautiful of all thy names.
