The Darkness Did Not Comprehend It

R. Thanks be to God. & ^rstjrr after 32ass. I render thee all possible praise and thanks, O Sovereign Creator, for the favour I have this day received of thy bounty, and of which many better-de- serving Christians are deprived. Re- ceive, O Lord, my unworthy prayers, supply all my defects, pardon all my dis- tractions and indevotions, and grant, that by the strength and virtue of those divine mysteries, I may go on cheerfully in the path of thy commandments, love, and service, amidst all the temptations, troubles, and dangers of my life’s pil- grimage ; till I shall one day happily arrive at thy heavenly kingdom, where, with thy blessed angels and saints, I shall more clearly contemplate thee, more perfectly enjoy thee, and more understandingly celebrate thy infinite goodness and mercy, with uninterrupted ON CONFESSION. canticles of eternal praise, admiration, and gratitude. Amen
