English[en]
A Religious makes this sacrifice of self with a view to humbly obeying lawful Superiors (whose authority, of course, should always be exercised within the confines of charity and with due regard for the human person), even though our times summon Religious to the performance of many and heavy burdens, and to carrying out these duties more cheerfully and more promptly.
Latin[la]
Quod sacrificium sui eo fit, quod submisse legitimis Moderatoribus paretur, quamvis auctoritas exercenda sit intra fines caritatis et cum respectu personae humanae, et licet haec nostra aetas religiosos vocet ad plura gravioraque munera obeunda et ad incepta alacrius et expeditius suscipienda.
