1. Lord, my heart is not exalted: nor are my eyes lofty. Neither have I walked in great matters, nor in wonderful things above me.

2. If I was not humbly minded, but exalted my soul: As a child that is weaned is towards his mother, so reward in my soul.

3. Let Israel hope in the Lord, from henceforth now and for ever.





“A ingenuidade e’ uma virtude, mas apenas ate certo ponto; ela deve sempre ser acompanhada da prudência. A astúcia e a safadeza, por outro lado, são diabólicas e podem causar muito mal.” São Padre Pio de Pietrelcina
