Polish Declinations---Catholic Style

I found the perfect example for the pain that is Polish grammar today in Mass.

In English, the phrase at the end of the consecration prayer is "Through Him, with Him, and in Him."

In Polish, the same phrase is "Przez Chrystusa, z Chrystusem i w Chrystusie."

Not to mention that the original form of Christ is "Chrystus."

Oh yah, and there are seven endings altogether...

Painful I tell you.
