Oakerhater Window
Pictured: Stainglass window in the Oakerhater Chapel of St. Paul's Cathedral. The central design is the glyph which David used to sign his name until he learned how to write English. The glyph translates as "Oakerhater", and represents a Sundancer in a lodge.
Grant me a stillness of seeing, O God.
In the conflicting voices of my heart
Grant me a calmness of hearing.
Let my seeing and hearing
My words and my actions
Be rooted in a silent certainty
of your presence.
— The Rev. J. Philip Newell
