Bring us, O Lord God, at our last awakening
         into the house and gate of Heaven:
to enter into that gate
         and dwell in that house,
     where there shall be no darkness nor dazzling,
           but one equal light;
     no noise nor silence,
           but one equal music;
     no fears nor hopes,
           but one equal possession;
     no ends nor beginnings,
           but one equal eternity;
in the habitations of thy Majesty and Glory,
         world without end. Amen.
