Head bowed, thy Side laid open, and thy Soul saturated
with sorrows: by all these, and by the love which broke
thy sweetest Heart when thy blessed Soul went forth
from thy Body, have mercy on my soul, I beseech thee, in
the hour of my going hence. Amen.
THE CROSS
St. Mechtilde once asked our Lord, in prayer, which had
been his greatest suffering. Our Lord replied: The being so
forcibly stretched out upon the cross that all my bones
might have been numbered; and if any one give me
special thanks for that suffering, it shall be as though he
anointed my wounds with fragrant ointment. And if any

one give me thanks for the thirst I suffered, it shall be as
though he had allayed that thirst in my Passion;
moreover, if he give me thanks that I willed to be
fastened to my cross with nails, he shall be as acceptable
to me as though he had taken me down from it.
O
during three long hours didst hang so piteously
upon the cross; with the affection of all thy
creatures I give thee thanks for that intolerable pain thou
didst endure when thou wast so cruelly stretched out
upon thy sacred cross that all thy bones might be
numbered: beseeching thee by that pain to forgive me all
the sins which I have ever committed against thee with
any member of my body. Amen. 105
