SUNDAY. MARCH 30. Society THE FOOL'S PRAYER. The royal feast was done; the king Sought ' some new sport to banish care. Lnd to his jester cried: "Sir Fool, Kneel now and make for us a prayer!" The jester doffed his cap and bells And stood the mocking court be fore; They could not see the bitter smile- Behind the painted grin he wore. He bowed his head and bent his knee Upon the monarch’s silken stool; His pleading voice arose: “O, Lord, Be merciful to me, a fool! “No pity, Lord, could change the heart From red with wrong to white as wool; The rea must heal the sin; but, Lord, Pe merciful to me, a fool! “’Tis not by guilt the onward sweep Of truth and right, O Lord, we stay; Tis by our follies that so long We hold the earth from heaven away. ‘These clumsy feet, still in the mire, Go crushing blossoms without end; Iheoe hard, well-meaning hands we th rust Among the heartstrings of a friend. ‘The ill-timed truth we might have kept— Who knows how sharp it pierced and stung? The word we had not sense to say— Who knows how grandly it had rung. "Our faults no tenderness should ask, The chastening stripes must cleanse them all; But tor our blunders —oh, in shame Before the eyes of heaven we fall. Barth bears no balsam for mis takes; Men crown the knave and scourge the tool That did His will; but Thou, O Lord, Be merciful to me, a fool!” The room was hushed. In silence rose The king, and sought his gardens cool. And walked apart and murmured low: "Be merciful to me, a fool!” MARRIAGE OF MISS HITCHCOCK AND MR. J. L. PEABODY. Aiken, S.
