Saint Aristides of Athens, pray for us all; pray for those humble Buddhists who apologize for their eightfold rightnesses; pray for those Christians who stray from our Savior's path; pray for any who need to apologize and yet cannot; pray for all Greek philosophers cogitating, ruminating, wondering in thought's oceans vast; pray for new Jerusalem and her glorious bridal realm; pray for health of Dalai Lama and all who follow him; pray every person brighten and stay away from sin; pray all these prayers be answered and Love do conquer whim, right conquer might, light conquer blight and good Lamb's freedom softly ever reign, Amen
