Let no riches make me ever forget myself

Let no riches make me ever forget myself, no poverty make me to forget thee:
let no hope or fear, no pleasure or pain, no acident without, no weakness within,
hinder or discompose my duty, or turn me from the ways of thy commandments. O
let thy Spirit dwell with me forever . . .

Jeremy Taylor, 1613-67
