From Knob Knowledge

Jump to: navigation, search

The following prayer is attributed to Ellison Capers while a cadet at The Citadel, June 1857. It comes from The Journal of Tom Law, 1857. Capers later became the Episcopal Bishop of South Carolina. 

   Lord of love
   Look from above
   Upon this tainted ham;
   And give us meat
   That's fit to eat
   For this ain't worth a damn!
