My favourite prayer at work

Jacob Astley, 1st Baron Astley of Reading
Major-General of the Foot
The Battle of Edgehill
Southern Warwickshire on Sunday, 23 October 1642
"O Lord, Thou knowest how busy I must be this day. If I forget Thee, do not forget me."
which he followed promptly with the order "March on, boys!"

Martin Peter Clarke
