Saint Benedict, Abbot of Monte Cassino

Totila e San Benedetto

Totila e San Benedetto (King Totila of the Goths tests St Benedict), by Spinello Aretino (1350–1410). From Wikipedia.

Almighty and everlasting God, whose precepts are the wisdom of a loving Father: Enable us, after the teaching and example of thy servant Saint Benedict, to walk as one family in the excellent paths of obedience, that thy blessing may prosper the works of our hands, and thine ears be open unto our prayers; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Ghost, ever one God, world without end. Amen.

¶ Or this:

Almighty and everlasting God, who on this day didst deliver blessed Benedict from the burden of the flesh: Hereafter grant unto us thine unworthy servants to have our share in the company of the blessed; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
