聖安博晚禱詞
God, the maker of all things
Ruler of the skies, who clothes
The day in lovely light,
The night in welcome sleep:
Then rest can ease the body and send
it back to usual work,
And relieve exhausted mind,
And free from mourning the distressed.
(Ambrose's lines Deus creator omnium,
quoted from Augustine's Confessions 9.34, Ruden trans.)
