Ths Lord’! Prxysr.
Hoore years ago a pious oM gentle
man of Baltimore, who met the great
tragedian Booth at the bouse of bis
nephew, asked him to read for him
tbe Ixwd’s IVsyer. Booth was sit
ting ia familiar converse with a circle
of friends when the request was
made, and received it iu solemn si
lence, the odor fading from his cheek,
while It was wonderful to watch tbe
varying emotions of bis expressive
ant ©ounce.
Slowly and reverently be rose,
then stood silent sad awed as in the
felt presence of the Supreme. At
last the pale lips parted, and the
ripe, mellow voice syllabled forth the
words: “Our Father who art ia
ivea ” aad through to tbfi end,
wir.lv. a *nl*«nn rvttW (to tkrilled
present were all unused to pray. He
ceased, and again silence laid its im
press oa every lip aad tongue. For
rcral minutes no one spoke or
moved, each heart seemingly rapt in
its owa emotions, aud little inclined
to communicate them to others.
AA length the Christian gentleman
who had made the request thanked
the actor, and there were tears in his
eyes while he added, “I am aa old
ud now, and every day, from my
yooug boy hood to the present time,
I repeated that prayer, bat I never
folly comprehended it till now. Can
y ou really enter into its wondrous
depths f* “No,” said Booth, sadly,
“1 supponr I do not; that is, not as
a real Christian does. Yet for thirty
years I have pondered those most
sublime of aU utterances, unfolding
daily from their marvelous oompre
benaiveoesa, new beauty and force,
sod still lam by no mesas satisfied
with my success in rendering this
prayer of prayers.”
How aad that, with such eoocep
troii* of truth, the heart should re
main uutouched. How near the
portal one may advance, and still fail
to rater the sacred precincts. How
often or how forcibly God’s Spirit
may have spoken to this gifted man,
while, iu the exercise of his vocation,
be read and jKmdered, as a literary
gem, those sweet utterances of the
God mau, we may not know; but in
the deep emotion that years of famil
iarity had foiled to quench, we can
mi rely discern the strivings of the
heavenly messenger, as the divine
authorship of this wonderful prayer.
