May we be without age widely (?) with the angels in eternal life !
Patriarchs, prophets without extinction, angels, apostles— a noble
sight —
lo 45 may they come with our Heavenly Father to bless us before the
host of devils !
Blessing on the patron Patrick, with the saints of Ireland about him !
blessing on this convent and on all within it !
