Emendemus in melius Matches base text
Language: Latin
Emendemus in melius quae ignoranter peccavimus, ne subito praeoccupati die mortis queramus spatium poenitentiae et invenire non possumus. Attende, Domine, et miserere, quia peccavimus tibi. Adiuva nos, Deus salutaris noster, et propter honorem nominis tui libera nos.
