For said it is of many men
And such as are no fools,
A workman is but little worth
If he do want his tools.
Farewell the anchor of my hope,
Farewell my stay of life,
Farewell my poor Penelope,
Farewell my faithful wife.
Let prayer be your practice, wife,
Let prayer be your play,
Let prayer be your staple of trust,
Let prayer be your stay.
Let prayer be your castle strong,
Let prayer be your fort,
Let prayer be your place of rest,
Let prayer be your port.
