55:1
Prospera Deo propitio festivitatis exordia, quia obtinueratis suffragio, visitastis affectu. Nam dum et curam patri solito geritis, et de incolumitate vestra quæ votis conveniant nuntiatis, quod gaudemus offerlis, et quod debemus exigitis. Tribuat Christus hujus ipsius pietatis ac dignationis vestræ uberem commeatum, in quo a vobis munere magisterii geminati, et per sollicitudinis beneficium confortentur senes vestri, et per caritatis exemplum posteri doceantur.
The prosperous beginnings of the festival, by God's favor, which you had obtained by your intercession, you visited also with your affection. For while you both bear care for the father as is your wont, and announce concerning your own safety the things that befit our prayers, you offer what we rejoice at, and require what we owe. May Christ grant an abundant supply of this very piety and regard of yours, in which—doubled by you through the gift of your teaching—your elders may be strengthened by the benefit of your solicitude, and those who come after may be taught by the example of your charity.
承蒙神的恩眷、您藉代求所得的這聖節順利開端，您又以慈愛親自探望。因為您既照素常為那作父親者存懷關切，又報告有關您自身平安、合乎我們祈願之事，您便獻上我們所歡喜的，也索求我們所虧欠的。願基督賜下您這虔敬與眷顧的豐盈供應，好使您藉教導之恩使它加倍，讓您的長者因您關懷之益得堅固，讓後輩因您仁愛之榜樣受教誨。
