Audi, benigne Conditor,nostras preces cum fletibus,sacrata in abstinentiafusas quadragenaria.2. Scrutator alme cordium,infirma tu scis virium;ad te reversis exhiberemissionis gratiam.3. Multum quidem peccavimus,sed parce confitentibus,tuique laude nominis confer medelam languidis.4. Sic corpus extra conteridona per abstinentiam,ieiunet ut mens sobriaa labe prorsus criminum.5. Praesta, beata Trinitas,concede, simplex Unitas,ut fructuosa sint tuishaec parcitatis munera. Amen.
