Lauded be Thy name, O my God! I entreat Thee by the fragrances of the
Raiment of Thy grace which at Thy bidding and in conformity with Thy
desire were diffused throughout the entire creation, and by the Day-Star
of Thy will that hath shone brightly, through the power of Thy might and
of Thy sovereignty, above the horizon of Thy mercy, to blot out from my
heart all idle fancies and vain imaginings, that with all my affections I
may turn unto Thee, O Thou Lord of all mankind!
I am Thy servant and the son of Thy servant, O my God! I have laid hold on
the handle of Thy grace, and clung to the cord of Thy tender mercy. Ordain
for me the good things that are with Thee, and nourish me from the Table
Thou didst send down out of the clouds of Thy bounty and the heaven of Thy
favor.
Thou, in very truth, art the Lord of the worlds, and the God of all that
are in heaven and all that are on earth.
