[195] P. 141.  In the French edition on which this translation is based
      there was inserted the following fragment after No. 513: 

        “Work out your own salvation with fear.”

        Proofs of prayer. Petenti dabitur.

Therefore it is in our power to ask.  On the other hand, there is God.  So it is not in our power, since the obtaining of (the grace) to pray to Him is not in our power.  For since salvation is not in us, and the obtaining of such grace is from Him, prayer is not in our power.

        The righteous man should then hope no more in God, for he ought
        not to hope, but to strive to obtain what he wants.
