Chapter 9- Horticulture: Prayer

 A Prayer for The Garden

Oh Bud, Oh Heart, Oh Sun profound!

My Joy, My Love, May Grace abound,

I pray today to know you well,

To find the key to the gate in the wall,

And if no key,

May I climb above,

That I may see

Into this Garden of Love.

 Find me there, I pray;

May I be blessed

That to this succour of Heaven attest,

And also my brother and sister in this

Can they find their way to know such a bliss?

And to drink from the syrup,

And to savour this beauty,

In the scents and the fruits

Of this sensual bounty,

Praise be to God, our God on High,

Praise be to God, the God within,

Praise be to Christ and His Paradise

This, the most blessed and Holy Garden!

Amen
