祈求進步,祈求克服偏情,祈求德行:首先是信望愛三超德;其次是智勇節義四樞德;第三則是奉獻生活的美德,亦即那些透過三願誓詞而提升的美德。也務求倫理的美德,譬如忍耐、服從、温良。(APD56, 64)
Ask for progress, ask for victory over passions, ask for virtues: theological, in the first place; secondly, cardinal; and, thirdly, the religious virtues, those which are then elevated by means of the vow. And also ask for the moral virtues such as patience, obedience, docility (APD56, 64).
