O glorious St. Anthony / divinely endowed with / knowledge and wisdom. / I desire to place my studies / under your protection. / Guided by your examples / I wish to draw / all knowledge / from my Lord and Master. / May the Father of light / grant me through your intercession / a bright intellect, / a sound judgment / and a retentive memory. / Help me to study patiently, / orderly /and constantly to develop in me / the gifts of God / and always make good use of them / according to His divine will. / O dear St. Anthony, / grant me to succeed / in all my studies and examinations / if it be for the / greater glory of God / and the benefit of my soul.
- Amen.
