On Day 33
I remember my promise (with a little help from Romanus)
to support the Neophytes of the Church:
And so,
Now I call upon you,
Since I love you more,
O Neophyte, dear to me,
Always be what you have been called,
One newly Baptized everywhere,
Pleasing on every occasion,
Beautiful always,
Not a Bridegroom today and unwed tomorrow,
For this has married you to the Lord,
Our resurrection.
-Romanus, 6th Century
