Listen, O my son, to the precepts of thy master, and incline the ear of thy heart,
and cheerfully receive and faithfully execute the admonitions of thy loving Father,
that by the toil of obedience thou mayest return to Him from whom by the sloth of disobedience thou hast gone away.
To thee, therefore, my speech is now directed, who, giving up thine own will,
takest up the strong and most excellent arms of obedience,
to do battle for Christ the Lord, the true King.
