In respect for the celebration of the Eucharist,        Let no one have contempt for your youth,
            we ask that photos and                        but set an example for those who believe,

                during the Mass.                        Until I arrive, attend to the reading, exhortation, and teaching.
                                                        Do not neglect the gift you have,

                                                        Be diligent in these matters, be absorbed in them,
                                                          so that your progress may be evident to everyone.
                                                        Attend to yourself and to your teaching;
                                                           persevere in both tasks,
                                                           for by doing so you will save
