The Bedford Master, Pentecost, book of hours, about 1420. Cleveland Museum of Art.
WE most firmly believe there is one only true and living God; but that in this one God there are three persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost; that the Son took to himself the nature of man from the Virgin Mary's womb, by the operation of the Holy Ghost; and that in this our human nature, he was crucified and died for us: that afterwards he rose again, and ascended into heaven; whence he shall come to reward the just with everlasting glory, and to inflict everlasting punishments on the wicked. Moreover, we believe whatsoever else the Catholic church proposeth to be believed; and this because God, who is the sovereign truth, which can neither err, nor lead into error, hath revealed all these things to this his church. A. Grant, O God, that we may humbly receive, and firmly hold fast all those truths which thou hast revealed, and thy church hath proposed to our belief.
