WHEN I've thrown my books aside, being petulant and weary, And have turned down the gas, and the firelight has sufficed, When my brain's too stiff for prayer, and too indolent for theory, Will You come and play with me, big Brother Christ? Aeterna Press

Excerpt from Catholic Tales and Christian Songs And, seeking but to do hee grace, Have smitten Thee upon the face, If my kiss for Thee be not Of John, but of Iscariot, Prithee then, good Jesus, pardon As Thou once didst in the garden, Call me Friend, and with my crime Build Thou Thy passion more sublime.

Worlds of Common Prayer explores book-length poems based on the Anglican liturgical calendar written between 1827 and 1935. John Keble created a new type of English poetry when he wrote his poetic companion to the Book of Common Prayer, The Christian Year (1827), which went on to become the single bestselling book of poetry in the English century. Drawing off of recent scholarship on both secularization studies and nineteenth-century conceptions of time, Worlds of Common Prayer exposes the surprisingly radical potential of liturgical poetry. The detective novelist and poet Dorothy L. Sayers wrote of her desire to find a “brick” that could smash the order of clock time, and discovered one in the liturgy. For major authors as dissimilar as Christina Rossetti and T.S. Eliot, the Anglican liturgical calendar served as a means of dismantling industrial capitalism’s time clock, and thereby of destabilizing the secular world order as a whole.
And though she laments, "So many mysteries, so little time," she makes a good effort at mentioning "some of the best of the rest.""--BOOK JACKET.
C.S. Lewis said that Dorothy L. Sayers would be acclaimed as one of the great letter-writers of the twentieth century. His opinion is triumphantly confirmed in this collection of letters spanning Sayers's childhood and career as a detective novelist.
