Sounds, and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.

Will hum about mine ears; and sometime voices,
That, if I then had waked after long sleep
Will make me sleep again: and then, in dreaming,
The clouds methought would open, and show riches
Ready to drop upon me; that, when I waked
I cried to dream again.

Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace.

Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
And where there is sadness, joy.

St. Francis of Assisi
