    Saint Francis of Assisi

    Most High, all-powerful, good Lord,

    Yours are the praises, the glory, and the honor, and all blessing,

    To You alone, Most High, do they belong,

    and no human is worthy to mention Your name.

    Praised be You, my Lord, with all Your creatures,

    especially Sir Brother Sun,

    Who is the day and through whom You give us light.

    And he is beautiful and radiant with great splendor;

    and bears a likeness of You, Most High One.

    Praised be You, my Lord, through Sister Moon and the stars,

    in heaven You formed them clear and precious and beautiful.

    Praised be You, my Lord, through Brother Wind,

    and through the air, cloudy and serene, and every kind of weather,

    through whom You give sustenance to Your creatures.

    Praised be You, my Lord through Sister Water,

    who is very useful and humble and precious and chaste.

    Praised be You, my Lord, through Brother Fire,

    through whom You light the night,

    and he is beautiful and playful and robust and strong.

    Praised be You, my Lord, through our Sister Mother Earth,

    who sustains and governs us,

    and who produces various fruit with colored flowers and herbs.

    Praised be You, my Lord, through those who give pardon for Your love,

    and bear infirmity and tribulation.

    Blessed are those who endure in peace

    for by You, Most High, shall they be crowned.

    Praised be You, my Lord, through our Sister Bodily Death,

    From whom no one living can escape.

    Woe to those who die in mortal sin.

    Blessed are those whom death will find in Your most holy will,

    for the second death shall do them no harm.

    Praise and bless my Lord and give Him thanks

    and serve Him with great humility.

    Wendell Berry

    The clearing rests in song and shade.

    It is a creature made

    By old light held in soil and leaf,

    By human joy and grief,

    By human work,

    Fidelity of sight and stroke,

    By rain, by water on

    The parent stone.

    We join our work to Heavens gift,

    Our hope to what is left,

    That field and woods at last agree

    In an economy

    Of widest worth.

    High Heavens Kingdom come on earth.

    Imagine Paradise.

    O dust, arise!
