Nicolas Poussin Summer or Ruth and Boaz

Summer, or Ruth and Boaz, by Nicolas Poussin (1594–1665). From Wikipedia.

O Lord Jesu Christ who didst say unto thine Apostles, Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: Regard not our sins, but the faith of thy Church, and grant unto it that peace and unity which is agreeable to thy will; who livest and reignest with the Father and the Holy Spirit, one God, world without end. Amen.

Given in the 1926 Canadian BCP as a Whitsuntide collect “For The Unity of the Christian Church”.
