The 'Erddig Prayer'

House_east_view

Philip Yorke I had a preoccupation with fire precautions. This prayer hangs outsider the still room in the house:

May heav'n protect our home from flame.

Or hurt or harm of various name!

And may no evil luck betide

To any who therin abide!

As also who their homes have found

On any acre of it's ground.

Or who from homes beyond it's gate

Bestow their toil on this estate!
