“Et il vécut une belle vie de pénitence pendant 80 ans dans le jeûne, la prière, le silence et l’ascèse, sans manger de pain ni boire d’eau mais en communiant de dimanche en dimanche et après 80 ans il rendit son âme à son Seigneur. Puissions-nous être jugés dignes avec Abbâ Arsène et les Pères droits et justes, les prophètes, les apôtres… Oui et amen.”
