It is truly meet and just, right and availing unto salvation that we should at all time and in all places, give thanks unto thee, Holy Lord, Father Almighty, everlasting God, gracious dweller in chaste bodies and divme lover of undefined souls.

And this in such wise as rtf only to recall it to the innocence of its first beginnings, bu even to bring it to a knowledge of those everlasting good things attainable in the life to come. Indeed, thou dost even now uplift unto the likeness of angels those who are still bound by the condition of this mortal life
