praised every moment, in the most holy and divine Sacrament. Amen.

An indulgence of 200 days to everyone who, with contrition for his sins and with devotion, says the above Act of Reparation to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament.

EJACULATIONS.

I adore thee every moment, O living Bread of Heaven, great Sacrament!

Jesus, Heart of Mary, I pray thee send thy blessing on my soul.

Holiest Jesu! loving Saviour! I give thee my heart.

200 days each time.


Prayer.

Behold, my most loving Jesus, to what an excess thy boundless love has carried thee! Of thine own flesh and precious blood thou hast made ready for me a banquet in order to give me all thyself. What was it that impelled thee to this transport of love for me? It was thy Heart, thy loving Heart. O adorable Heart of my Jesus, burning furnace of divine love! within thy most sacred wound receive thou my soul; that in that school of charity I may learn to requite the love of that God who has given me such wondrous proofs of his love. Amen.

Indulgence, 100 days, once a day, each time.


The "Hour Sanctified."

In order to awaken the gratitude of the faithful towards their Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, for his institution of the holy Eucharist, on those days when the Church commemorates that act of his love, Pope Pius VII. granted: 1. A plenary indulgence to all who on Holy Thursday, either in public or private, shall, for one hour, practise some devotion in remembrance of the institution of the most holy Eucharist; to be gained after confession and communion on that day, or some day in the following week. 2. A plenary indulgence, on the same conditions, on the Feast of Corpus Christi. 3. An indulgence of 800 days en any other Thursday, on practising this demotion with a contrite heart.
