April 10th
Book Four, Chapter 4
That Many Benefits are Bestowed on Those who Communicate Devoutly

Raise up my heart towards You, and deliver me from oppressive slothfulness.  Visit me with Your saving mercy, that I may taste in spirit Your sweetness, which plentifully lies hid in this Sacrament as in a fountain.  Illuminate also my eyes, to behold so great a Mystery, and strengthen me to believe it with an undoubting faith.  For it is Your work, and not man's power; Your sacred institution  not the invention of man.  For no one can be found capable of himself to conceive and understand these things, which transcend even the intelligence of the angels.
