"Cunno Opt. Min." is the title by which John Wilkes/Thomas Potter's parody on Alexander Pope's "The Universal Prayer" is known.

Pope's lines:

Thou Great First Cause, least understood,
Who all my sense confin'd
To know but this, that Thou art good,
And that myself am blind:

are subverted to:

Thou first great Cause, least understood,
Who all my Prick confined,
To feel but this, that thou art good
And that himself is blind.
