In her poem, ‘The Lord’s Prayer’, Aphra Behn declares: ‘Of all my crimes, soft bewitching love has been the cause!’ Enjoy thinking through this Canterbury woman’s 1685 version of Christian faith. Join us in the church where Behn’s parents were married to consider her unique voice, identity, and religious perspective through performative readings and discussion; you may also try creating your own ‘prayer poem’ (whether religious or not).
