Keep me for my child's life. Bring me through my hour stiong and well for the sake of my baby. 4 Prepare me'for real motherhood. Preserve my mind from doubts and worries and all fearsome misgivings, that I may not stain my thoughts withcowardice, for my child's sake. ; Drive all angers and impurities, all low and unworthy feelings, from me, that the little mind that is forming may become a brave, clean wrestler in this world of dangers, i And, God, when the child lies in my arms, and draws his life from me, and when his eyes look up to ' (nine to learn what this new world is like, I pledge Thee the child shall find reverence in me and no fear truth and no shame, love strong as life and death and no hates nor pet ulances. God, make my baby love me. I ask no endowments nor excellencies for my child but only that the place of motherhood once given me it may never be taken from me. As long as the soul lives that I shall bring forth let there be in it one secret shrine that shall always be mother's. ' Givethe child a right and clear mind, and a warm, free soul . And I promise Thee that I shall study the child and seek to find what gifts and graces Thou hast implant ed, and to deve'op them. I shall respect the child's personality. " I am but Thy little one, 0 Father, I fold my hands and put them be tween Thy hands, and say give me a normal baby, and make me a nor mal mother. Amen.
