him in reverence for that choice oblation. Whence she

understood that whenever anyone offers his prayers or

of Jesus Christ, myself with all that I am, all I have, all I
can do, together with every good gift which thou hast
ever bestowed on me from thine unfathomable,
overflowing bounty. Moreover I offer thee all the
treasures and the wealth of this world, all kingdoms,
