Paper on wood. 3 Dimentional affect. Measures 13.5"x11" English reads "Almight God, before i begin my holy work of healing the creations of your hand, I beseech before your holy throne that you grant me strength of spirit and fortitude to faithfully do my work, that the aspirations to accumulate wealth or fame not blind my eyes from seeing one who is suffering or from seeing the truth. I should be worthy of seeing in the sufferer who seeks my advice, a person neither rich nor poor, neither friend nor foe, neither good nor evil, in their moment of distress show me only the human being in them. My desire to study, learn and practice medicine should strengthen my spirit and the truth shall always be my guide. I plead before you, compassionate and gracious God strengthen me in body and soul and instill within me a perfect spirit.
