The Confessions of St. Augustin In Thirteen Books

Chapter XXXV.--He Prays God for that Peace of Rest Which Hath No Evening.

50. O Lord God, grant Thy peace unto us, for Thou hast supplied us with all things,--the peace of rest, the peace of the Sabbath, which hath no evening. For all this most beautiful order of things, "very good" (all their courses being finished), is to pass away, for in them there was morning and evening.

CHAPITRE XXXV. « SEIGNEUR, DONNEZ-NOUS VOTRE PAIX! »

50. Source de tous nos biens, Seigneur mon Dieu, donnez-nous votre paix! la paix de votre repos, la paix de votre sabbat! la paix sans déclin! Car cet ordre admirable, et cette belle harmonie de tant de créatures excellentes, passeront, le jour où leur destination sera remplie.

Ils auront leur soir, comme ils ont eu leur matin.
