I Am Patrick, A Sinner, Most Uncultivated

That Which I Have Set Out In Latin Is Not My Words But The Words Of God And Of Apostles And Prophets, Who Of Course Have Never Lied. He Who Believes Shall Be Saved, But He Who Does Not Believe Shall Be Damned. God Has Spoken.

May The Strength Of God Pilot Us, May The Wisdom Of God Instruct Us, May The Hand Of God Protect Us, May The Word Of God Direct Us. Be Always Ours This Day And For Evermore.

I Am Not Ignorant Of What Is Said Of My Lord In The Psalm: "you Destroy Those Who Speak A Lie." And Again: "a Lying Mouth Deals Death To The Soul." And Likewise The Lord Says In The Gospel: "on The Day Of Judgment Men Shall Render Account For Every Idle Word They Utter."

I Am Certain In My Heart That All That I Am, I Have Received From God.

Daily I Expect To Be Murdered Or Betrayed Or Reduced To Slavery If The Occasion Arises. But I Fear Nothing, Because Of The Promises Of Heaven.
