155. For the Nobility.

O GOD, Who for the good of all hast appointed that some should be born in stations of eminence among mankind; Grant unto the nobility of our own and other lands that they may use their dignity to Thy glory, remembering that Thou hast given it to them as the appointed means of their probation, by which to obtain the everlasting inheritance of Thy faithful children, in the exercise of humility before Thee, and of charity towards their brethren; and make them to be found worthy of the true greatness, and to shine forth among Thy saints as the stars In the firmament, with the brightness of Thy divine Jove; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
