Lord have mercy on my son: for he is off his head, and is in great pain; and frequently he goes falling into the fire, and frequently into the water.

Κυριε, ελεησον μου τον υιον, διοτι σεληνιαζεται και κακως πασχει· διοτι πολλακις πιπτει εις το πυρ και πολλακις εις το υδωρ.

Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is lunatick, and sore vexed: for ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water.
