       O
                www.oremusapostolate.com
 www.oremusapostolate.com   BLESSED  John  the  Evangelist,  I  recall  to  thy
                 www.oremusapostolate.com

              mind now that most sweet and most affectionate
              fidelity  thou  didst  feel  in  thy  heart  when  our
       Lord taught thee, together with  the  other Apostles, this
       his own availing prayer: beseeching thee to obtain for me
       the grace to cleave faithfully to him, and to persevere to
       the end of my life. Amen.
       Our Father, etc.

                      TO ST. BENEDICT
       St. Benedict said to St. Gertrude : Whoever shall delight
       in recalling to my mind the grace which was vouchsafed
       me, of dying while I  was  standing and praying . I  will
       assuredly be with him in the hour of his death, and will
 www.oremusapostolate.com   MOST glorious Patriarch, holy father Benedict,

                 www.oremusapostolate.com
       stand  between  him  and  his  enemies,  wherever  their
       assault is most deadly and furious.
       O
              I recall to thy mind now that great and glorious
              grace  bestowed  on  thee  by  our  Lord,  of
       breathing out thy last breath as thou stoodst praying, on
       which  account  thy  lips  now  exhale  a  fragrance  which
       ravishes all the saints with delight; beseeching thee to be
       with me in the hour of my death with loving fidelity, and
       to  place  thyself  between  me  and  my  enemies  round
       about,  wheresoever    though  seest  them  rage  most
       furiously against me; so that, protected by thy presence, I
       may escape all their snares, and reach the joys of heaven
       safe and blessed forever. Amen.                144
