Deus, qui beátum Petrum Confessórem tuum admirábilis pœniténtiæ et altíssimæ contemplatiónis múnere illustráre dignátus es: da nobis, quǽsumus; ut, ejus suffragántibus méritis, carne mortificáti, facílius cœléstia capiámus.
O God, Who graciously made blessed Peter, Your Confessor, glorious by the gift of remarkable penance and sublime contemplation, grant, we beseech You, that, by the merit of his prayers, we may the more easily understand the things of heaven by curbing our passions.
