A Prayer of St. Clare
What you hold, may you [always] hold.
What you do, may you [always] do and never abandon.
But with swift pace, light step,
[and] unswerving feet,
so that even your steps stir up no dust,
go forward,
securely, joyfully, and swiftly,
on the path of prudent happiness,
believing nothing,
agreeing with nothing
which would dissuade you from this resolution
or which would place a stumbling block for you on the way,
so that you may offer your vows to the Most High
in the pursuit of that perfection
to which the Spirit of the Lord has called you.
