Hartley Coleridge on Prayer

← Back to Hartley Coleridge Profile

“Pray to be perfect, though material leaven Forbid the spirit so on earth to be; But if for any wish thou darest not pray, Then pray to God to cast that wish away.”

“Be not afraid to pray — to pray is right. Pray if thou canst with hope; but ever pray, Though hope be weak or sick with long delay; Pray in the darkness, if there be no light.”
