Let
us remember one another in concord and unanimity. Let us on both
sides of death always pray for one another. Let us relieve burdens
and afflictions by mutual love, that if one of us, by the swiftness
of divine condescension, shall go hence the first, our love may
continue in the presence of the Lord, and our prayers for our
brethren and sisters not cease in the presence of the Father’s
mercy.
