A nun's prayer
Ignatius Loyola, 1491-1556
Take O Lord, and receive all my liberty, my memory, my understanding, and my entire will, all that I have and possess.
Thou hast given all to me, to you O God I return them. All are yours.
Dispose of them all to your will.
Give me only thy love and thy grace, for this is enough for me.

Before dying
Near the threshold of dying
Active dying,
letting go of the elements
