       Giver  of  all  grace,  may  cleanse  me  from  all  the
       defilements  of  my  sins,  may  enlighten  and  adorn  me
       with  all  holy  virtues,  and  enable  me  to  stand  steadfast
       and to persevere unto the end in the love of God and of
       my neighbour; and when I have finished course, may the
       most gracious Paraclete lead me to the joys of his chosen.

             EMEMBER, O most compassionate Mother, that
             from the  beginning it  has never been heard that
             any  who  have  fled  to  thee  for  protection,  or
       implored  thy  intercession,  have  been  forsaken  by  thee.
       For  to  this  end  hath  the  Fountain  of  forgiveness  been

       given to thee as thy Son, that thou mightest obtain grace
       for all who need, and that thine abundant charity might
       cover  the  multitude  of  our  sins  and  our  many  defects.
       Wherefore, encouraged by this assurance, I have recourse
       to  thee,  and  stand  before  thee  in  my  misery  and  my
       defilement. Oh, despise me not for my innumerable and
       grievous sins, nor cast me away because of the exceeding
       loathsomeness and hardness of my heart. Thou knowest,
       O  Mary,  how  deeply  I  am  sunk  in  sins  and  vices,  and
       how justly I have deserved all the most dreadful anger of
       thy  Son.  Cast  me  not  away  from  thy  favour,  O  most
       compassionate Mother, for thou art, after God, my surest
       confidence, and the chief,  the only ground  of my hope.
       For  such  is  the  trust  I  have  in  thee,  that  I  shall  never
       believe that I can perish, as long as I love thee and serve
