REDIT DOMINUS AD DISCIPULOS
Vigilate et orate, ut non intretis in tentationem. Spiritus quidem promptus est, caro vero infirma.
Watch ye, and pray that you enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
Mark 14.38
PROMPTULA TURBA MORI IACET INDINATA SOPORI. CUM DEFICERE ANGUSTAMUR SEPE PROBAMUR
DORMITAUIT ANIMA MEA PRAE TEDIO
Dormitavit anima mea prae taedio; confirma me in verbis tuis.
My soul hath slumbered through heaviness: strengthen thou me in thy words.
Psalm 118.28
IN DOLORIBUS DORMIENTES
Ecce vos omnes accendentes ignem, accincti flammis; ambulate in lumine ignis vestri, et in flammis quas succendistis; de manu mea factum est hoc vobis; in doloribus dormietis.
Behold all you that kindle a fire, encompassed with flames, walk in the light of your fire, and in the flames which you have kindled: this is done to you by my hand, you shall sleep in sorrows.
Isaias 50.11
REUERSUS ANGELUS SUSCITAUIT ME
Et reversus est angelus qui loquebatur in me, et suscitavit me quasi virum qui suscitatur de somno suo.
And the angel that spoke in me came again: and he waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep.
Zacharias 4.1
SUB ARBORE MALA SUSCITAUIT TE
CHORUS. Quae est ista quae ascendit de deserto, deliciis affluens, innixa super dilectum suum? SPONSUS. Sub arbore malo suscitavi te; ibi corrupta est mater tua, ibi violata est genitrix tua
Who is this that cometh up from the desert, flowing with delights, leaning upon her beloved? Under the apple tree I raised thee up: there thy mother was corrupted, there she was defloured that bore thee
