On behalf of the Ordo Lucius and as the surviving member of same I humbly present to all Soldeus's faithful the revealed, recovered, and restored truth of the scripture known as "The Seven Corporeal and the Seven Spiritual Works of Mercy".

During our sojourn in the Desert, with prayer and fasting, in council and in cloistered contemplation, from fragments and remnants, through translation and trial, we humble servants of the Radiant Lord by His Grace received and restored this content; to the Greater Glory of our Heavenly Father we thus publish it, with the fervent hope that it shall not be lost again, but take firm root in the hearts and minds of all the men of Our Lord's Creation.

Additionally, we offer (in the form of a rubric) a glossary of the text, annotating it in exposition of the doctrine, for the increase of the faith and of understanding and composed by the Very Reverend Malachi in response to questions by our brethren.
