...like [the water] poured out and offered by his subjects upon meeting the King of Persia. I therefore take heart and trust in your Electoral Highness to take a step and offer and consecrate this small work in all humility, quite confidently hoping that your Electoral Highness will never spurn such, but rather graciously keep my intention in mind and henceforth be and remain my most gracious Elector and Lord. May GOD the Most High make all the prayers and good wishes contained therein, also for your Electoral Highness and your highly praiseworthy entire House, come true and ratify them, renew them in this year with special kindness and fidelity, and support and fulfill them for all infinite eternity.
