                                                           THE GREAT AMULET                                                  
                                                    
                                                        “To love is the great Amulet 
                                                        that makes this world a garden.” 
                                                        -Robert Louis Stevenson

                                                        Thy love O Lord
                                                        What great and gracious 
                                                        Charm this be
                                                        That wards off all
                                                        The evil one may send
                                                        And purchases for us 
                                                        Thy calm serenity.

                                                        Hang gently round our necks
                                                        O charm of fragrance sweet
                                                        Make of this evil world
                                                        A refuge and retreat
                                                        And cause the winds
                                                        Of pain and sorrow
                                                        Waft rose petals
                                                        At our feet.
