Septem versus sancti Bernardi
Illumina oculos meos ne umquam obdormiam in morte nequando dicat inimicus meus prevalui adversus eum.
In manus tuas Domine com {mendo spiritum meum}

Enlighten my eyes that I never sleep in death: lest at any time my enemy say: I have prevailed against him.
Into your hands, O Lord, I commend my spirit.
