Master of the First Prayerbook of Maximilian, The Mass of St. Gregory, Hours of Queen Isabella the Catholic, about 1500. Cleveland Museum of Art.
Be thou, O Lord, eternally praised and blessed, for having communicated to the holy prophets and apostles thy Spirit, disclosing to them admirable secrets, redounding to thy glory, and our great good. We firmly believe their word, because it is thine. Give us, we beseech thee, the happiness to understand from the Church, by their instructions, what is profitable, and grace to practise the same all our lives.
How wonderful, O Lord, is thy name through the whole earth. I will bless our Lord at all times: his praise shall be ever in my mouth. Be thou my God and my Protector; in thee alone will I put my trust, let me not be confounded for ever.
