Superne curie civis angelice qui ad\ custodiam fragilis vite mee, misericordia dei\ deputatus es deo et tibi gracias ago\ de tua fideli custodia qua me omnibus diebus ac nocti\bus horis atque momentis vite mee custodire dig\natus es. Tu es dulcissimus et amantissimus do\minus meus et meum est omni hora te prosequi\ et amplecti tuam purissimam sanctitatem. O candidum\ et immarcessibile lilium celestis Paradysi rutulans\ sydus superioris firmamenti viva gemma corone\ regis eterni. Mi domine indulge michi quicquid umquam\ in conspectu tuo deliqui et veniam omnium delictorum\ meorum concede michi a domino insidiantes michi hostes re\pelle in omni periculo anime et corporis michi assiste co\gitaciones desideria voluntates locuciones acci\ones et oraciones meas adiuva ut acceptabiles\ in conspectu domini sint sicut suavitatis incensum\ omnem vitam meam ne commendo in die defunctionis\ mee. Adesto michi cum electis sociis tuis. Et impetra michi a domino\ ut felix et racionabilis et honestus fiat exitus meus. Et\ suscipe animam meam supplicem tuam et presenta eam in vitam\ eternam. Amen.\
