Prayer

-Hodierna, Mild Mistress of Life-
:by Caedmon Descendens

Hodierna, mild mistress of life, light, and morning,
Turn the dark face of Asketi away.
Favor your folk in their budding and borning,
Hasten the dawning that heralds the day.

Strengthen our hands in the season of sowing,
Guide where to plant, where to prune or entwine.
Send showers for seedlings, your West Wind a-blowing,
Fill hives full of honey, set flowers on the vine.

Wild grows the North Wind, we hark to its warning,
Guard flocks and fields from its death and decay.
You spill forth your splendor, all prophecies scorning,
Golden the meadows -- we plant, you repay.

Reap us your harvest of grain overflowing,
Fruit on the limb and the ear on the stalk.
You gladden our gleaning, your bounty bestowing,
The earth yields its treasure wherever you walk.
