"Lord of the heaven and of the earth"

 So Jesus answered, saying, "Father, Lord

Of heaven and earth ..."; the One who has the right

To give to each their suitable award,

Has hidden things from those who claim the light,

Since giving to the poor was His delight;

The wise may model heaven by astrolabes:

The Father gives His model to the babes.


Matthew 11: 25.

(Hawthornden)





Hawthornden House was the home of the poet Sir William Drummond (1585-1649).

  1. Let the little children come unto me . . .
    May we all approach our Father with humility and need.
    Blessings, David!
