Sinopsis

Excerpt from The Sign of the Tree

Master! To pleasure Thee in this my task IS all I ask; Yet verily I think to labour Best unto Thee, my God, in serving so my neighbour. My fathers thought To find Thee alway in their holy places; And ever do the Scribes and Pharisees, With sweeping garments, broad phylacteries, Bring special tribute; plead for special graces, Within the Temple court. But I? - Lord, I must praise And honour Thee in all my common ways!

I would believe that Thou hast meant Thy Servant - born indeed of David's line.

Excerpt from The Sign of the Tree

The Apprentice At Prayer

I

Lord of our goodly Guild,
Give me to make things fair!
Great Master Carpenter! 0 hear my prayer
That I may build,
With hammer, plane, and square,
All true and sound, brave roof-trees, where
My brothers may find shelter from the night:
What time the tender evening star burns up
Her wistful taper; and the warm, clear light Of tranquil sunset falls
Red-golden, radiant, upon the walls
That I would lift, - wherein the tired labourer may sup.
Wherein glad mothers may be keeping
Homely, sweet watch o'er little children, sleeping
In carven cradles - mine, Lord, - wrought so rare
That all the baby elves,
Awaking,
Round-eyed, within their beds, when day is breaking,
May laugh to see themselves,
In sunny morning beams,
Droller and sweeter far, all dancing there,
Than ever in their funny little dreams!
