  1. Ye olde English ! ... there are several versions about this, the most known: St. Matthew's, and St. Luke's, or even, St. John's or St. Mark's and lots of their translations, but here we go: the Lord's prayer:

    --------------------------------

    Our Father, that art in heavens
    hallowed be thy Name,
    thy kingdom come,
    thy will be done,
    so on the earth as it is in heavens.

    our daily bread, Give us today
    And forgive us our sins,
    as we forgive to our debtors,

    And lead us not under temptation,
    but deliver us out of evil.
    For thine is the kingdom,
    and thine is the power,
    and thine is the glory,
    for ever and ever.

    Amen.
