About this book

Twelve monthly sections of short numbered poems, from January to December, make up George MacDonald's book of 1880, each poem a prayer or reflection from an aging believer. The opening verses ask for truer faith and a humbler heart in old age, speak to God directly, and picture a child knocking at a closed door until an angel opens it.

In the dedication MacDonald points to the blank page set against each printed one, left as ground for the reader's own thoughts.
