The Bedford Master, Pentecost, book of hours, about 1420. Cleveland Museum of Art.
O GOD, relying on thine almighty power, and thine infinite mercy and goodness; and because thou art faithful to thy promises: we trust in thee that thou wilt grant us forgiveness of our sins, through the merits of Jesus Christ thy Son; and that thou wilt give us the assistance of thy grace, with which we may labour to persevere to the end in the diligent exercise of all good works, and thus deserve to obtain the glory which thou hast promised in heaven. A. This hope, thus grounded on thy mercy, thy power, and thy promises, still more, O God, confirm and strengthen in us.
