"Lord, grant that I may be able in argument, accurate in analysis, strict
in study, candid with clients, and honest with adversaries. Sit with me
at my desk and listen with me to my client's plaints, read with me in
my library, and stand beside me in court, so that today I shall not, in
order to win a point lose my soul."
