Prayer (§326)

O GOD of infinite goodness, who hast given the crown of glory and honour to the martyred Bishop St Emigdius, we humbly pray Thee through his merits for that spirit of active faith which he inspired by his word and commended by his example, at last confirming the truth with his blood. Deign, I beseech Thee, O LORD, to preserve me from ruin by earthquake, through the intercession of this same glorious saint, to whom Thou hast given special power to protect his clients from this fearful scourge. Amen.
