In the Middle English Charter of the Abbey of the Holy Ghost, the Daughters of God enter the Abbey of the Holy Ghost as nuns after the abbey has been refounded by the risen Christ.
Best regards, Nancy Warren

Original:
Jam lucis orto sidere
Deum precemur supplices,
Ut in diurnis actibus
Nos servet a nocentibus;
Parody:
Jam lucis orto sidere
Statim oportet bibere:
Bibamus nunc egregie
Et rebibamus hodie
(etc.)
