This saying may be more easily understood if rephrased as: "The person that wants to learn to pray should go to sea." The quotation from German Lutheran reformer Philipp Melanchthon (1497 - 1560), or Welsh poet George Herbert (1593 - 1633) - "He that will learne to pray, let him goe to Sea" - reflects seafarers' long-standing conviction that at sea we find the ultimate in awe and terror.
