Pax vobis



Pax vobis (Peace to you)


My Lord, God, grant my heart a longing for Thee;

May it seek Thee because of that longing;

find Thee in its search; love Thee upon finding Thee;

in its love for Thee atone for my evils;

and never repeat the sins from which Thou hast redeemed me

(St. Anselm).

To dear Mother Adelaide O.S.B.
