O most merciful God and
mighty father,
we must humbly beseech
you,
if it be your good
pleasure
to continue to us that
singular benefit
which you have given
us
in the friendship of your
servant,
our dear sister
Who now lies on the bed of
sickness.
let her abide with us a
while
for the furtherance of your
faith;
yet awhile spare
her
that she may live to your
honor and our comfort,
you have made her a great
help
And the best thing close to
me...
Oh Lord, we pray to
you
restore to us our dear
friend, sister
By restoring her to
health...
May God bless you and
her
