O Holy Jesus, most merciful Redeemer:
May I know thee more clearly,
love thee more dearly,
and follow thee more nearly,
day by day.
Thanks be to thee, O Lord Jesus Christ,
for all the benefits which thou hast given us,
for all the pains and insults which thou hast borne for us;
friend and brother. Amen
— Richard Of Chichester (1197-1253)
