Excerpt from Prayers

Excerpt from Prayers
Theodore Parker was born 24 August, 1810, in Massachusetts, where his father was a small farmer. At the age of seventeen he began teaching in a school in order to procure the means of getting himself a college education. On graduating at the University of Harvard, he became in 1837 minister of the Unitarian Church at Roxbury. He removed to Boston in 1845, where he ministered to a large congregation for fourteen years. He also lectured all over the United States. He laboured for peace, temperance, and education; and still more ardently for the abolition of slavery.
He became prostrated by over-work before he was fifty years of age. In 1858 he visited Europe in the hope of regaining his health; but in vain. He wrote home: 'My life is slowly dragging to an end. I have sought to teach the true idea of man; of God; of religion, with its truths, its duties, its joys. I have gone into the battle of the nineteenth century and followed the flag of Humanity.' He died at Florence, 10 May, 1860.
The centenary collected edition of his works, published by the American Unitarian Association, fills fourteen volumes. The Prayers which are issued in this little book have passed through five editions in various forms.
