other unheard-of pains. By these pains and all the contumelious words and most severe torments, whereby, O Lord Jesus Christ, all thy enemies afflicted thee, I beseech thee to free me from all my enemies, visible and invisible, and grant me to reach the perfection of eternal salvation under the shadow of thy wings. Amen.
Our Father. Hail Mary.

O Jesus, mirror of eternal brightness, remember the grief which thou didst endure, when thou didst behold in the mirror of thy most serene Majesty the predestination of the elect to be saved by the merits of thy Passion, and the reprobation of the wicked, to be damned by their own demerits; and by the abyss of thy mercy, whereby thou didst then compassionate us lost and hopeless sinners, and which thou didst show the thief on the cross, saying, “ This day thou shalt be with me in paradise,” I beseech thee, O merciful Jesus, show mercy to me at the hour of my death. Amen.
Our Father. Hail Mary.
