       neglect.  Let  her  see  therein  all  the  divine  love  whereby

       thou  didst  from  all  eternity  freely  elect  her  to  be  thy
       Mother; didst preserve her from all taint of original sin,
       and  incomparably  adorn  her  with  all  graces  and  all
       virtues. Let her see therein all the tenderness wherewith
       thou  didst  cling  to  her  when  she  cherished  thee,  her
       Child, in her bosom; all the constant unfailing love with
       which,  during  the  whole  time  of  thy  sojourn  on  earth,
       thou, who art the Ruler of heaven and earth, didst obey
       her as a son his mother; and especially in the hour of thy
       death, when, as though forgetting thine own intolerable
       anguish, and touched to the heart by her desolation, thou
       didst provide for her a guardian and a son. Let her see
       therein that love beyond thought with which thou didst
       show her how precious she is in thy sight, when on the

                www.oremusapostolate.com
       day of her most joyous Assumption thou didst exalt her
                 www.oremusapostolate.com

       high above all the choirs of angels, and crown her Lady
       and Queen of heaven and earth. And thus, O good Jesus,
       may  she  be  still  to  me  a  loving  and  long  suffering
       Mother, and both in life and in death my compassionate
       advocate and patroness. Amen
           THANKSGIVING FOR THE GRACES


       When St. Gertrude had recited this short prayer she saw
       in vision the Mother of divine grace arise and beseech the
       Blessed Trinity to grant her as large a measure of grace
       as the heart of man can receive in this life. Then the most
       glorious Trinity turned towards the saint, and filled her
       soul with unutterable grace and benediction.
