Da, Pater, augustam menti conscendere sedem;
Da fontem lustrare boni; da, luce repertâ,
In Te conspicuos animi defigere visus!
Boeth. [III 9 11]

Give me, O Father! to thy throne access,
Unshaken seat of endless happiness!
Give me, unveil'd, the source of good to see!
Give me thy light, and fix mine eyes on thee!
