So let my soul drink only from You, let it seek refuge only in You, let it cry to You day and night; for in You alone is true rest, true sweetness, and true peace and life. Most beloved Jesus, grant me your sweetest light; lovingly infuse, most pleasant Lord, the ray of Your light into my soul, so that, thus illuminated and radiant, it may be worthy to see, love, enjoy, and possess You in enjoyment with your saints forever.
