Grant me a happy life
in all godliness and gravity,
in all purity and nobleness,
in cheerfulness, in health, in good report,
in contentment, in safety, in freedom, in tranquillity,
a happy death, a deathless happiness.
(a prayer of Lancelot Andrewes, from Lancelot Andrewes and His Private Devotions)
