not bruised for me, I will no longer delight in indulging mine, but live in the practice of constant mortification, that so I may have some resemblance to Thee, my only true and sovereign good.

6. O adorable and divine blood, shed for my salvation, flow over me, to wash me, to purify me, to sanctify me: flow over sinners, that they may be reclaimed; over the heathen, that they may be enlightened; over the perfidious Jews, that they may be softened; over all, that all being united in the same faith, in the same hope, and in the same charity, we may reign with Thee and in Thee, in that charity which shall subsist for ever.
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be, etc.

I kiss with the deepest respect Thy feet and Thy hands; I adore Thy Sacred Heart, which was opened for love of me; and I resolve, from this time forth, rather to lay down my life than to crucify Thee again by any mortal sin. For love of Thee, I crucify myself anew on the cross of my vows, and resolve to imitate Thy example faithfully to the end of my life. O good Lord, my blessed Saviour! By that glorious triumph, which, in Thy death, Thou didst achieve over sin and hell, and by that throne of glory to which Thou wast exalted by Thy Eternal Father in heaven: grant that I also, in the hour of death, may triumph over all my enemies, and come at last with Thee to the joys of paradise. Yes, O my Jesus, grant me this grace by the merits of Thine agony and Thy death on the cross.
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be, etc.
