Happy are those who mourn; God will comfort them.
Evil men sprout like weeds in the sun, like weeds that spread all through the garden. Their roots wrap round the stones and hold fast to every rock.
Ask, and you will receive; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.
Love watches, and sleeping, slumbers not. When fatigued it does not become tired; when pressed it does not work through constraint; when threatened it is not disturbed; but like a lively flame and a burning torch, it mounts upwards, and securely overcomes all opposition.
First keep yourself in peace and then you will be able to bring others to peace. The peaceable man does more good than one who is very learned.
Grant me, O God, strength and courage to restrain the desires of my heart, that I may be free to possess you, Amen.
The lover flies, runs and rejoices; he is free and nothing can restrain him. He gives all for all and has all in all.
