O most laudable Tree, which held the Word, the most holy of all holy beings, reject not our supplication, but hearken unto us in your goodness and strengthen our hearts in Thy fear, and let your grace be upon me O Lord like a fire consuming the impure thoughts within me. O Lord are the Light above all lights, the Joy above all joys, the Repose above all repose, the True Life, and the Salvation that abides unto the ages of ages. Flesh and blood shall not inherit the kingdom of God; however long we live in the flesh we are separate from Christ, but if we die we live for eternity.
