Nihil operi Dei præponere licet. Strenue igitur et reverenter laudibus quæ Deo in oratorio quotidie persolvuntur insistamus necesse est, non somnolenti, non oscitantes, non vocibus parcentes, non dimidia verba præcidentes, non integra transilientes, denique nil aliud cogitantes. S. Bernard. Serm. 47. sup. Cant. Ratisbon. Printed by F. Pustet, printer of the PRAYERS. AT WAKING IN THE MORNING. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen. (50 days Indulgence.) I have slept and have taken my rest; and I have risen up because the Lord hath protected me. Ps. III. 6. O my God, I most humbly thank Thee for having preserved me this night past from sudden and unprovided death; and I make Thee the offering of this day, which Thou has granted to me, that I may labour therein for Thy honour and glory, and for the salvation of my own soul.
