In the name of the ✠ Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.

Open thou our mouths, O Lord, to bless thy holy name; cleanse our hearts from all vain, evil, and distracting thoughts; enlighten our understandings and inflame our wills, that we may worthily perform this holy exercise with attention and devotion, and may deserve to be heard in the presence of thy divine Majesty. Who with God the Father in the unity of the Holy Ghost liveth and reigneth, God, World without end. Amen.
