       if the glory of thy divine compassion in not disdaining to

       give  thyself  to  me  might  thereby  shine  forth  with  the
       greater splendour.

       As you kneel to receive communion, cease not to sigh and
       long for your Beloved, saying:
       COME, good Jesus, come, thou Spouse of my soul, come
       into my heart with that love with which thou didst enter
       into the Virgin’s womb, etc.

                   AFTER COMMUNION
       O
               GOOD  Jesus,  O  sweet  Jesus,  O  Jesus  most
              lovely,  O  Jesus  my  only  salvation  and  my
              consolation; and whence is this to me that thou
       shouldst come unto me, and not abhor to enter into my

       most polluted heart, defiled as it is with such exceeding
       stains  and  sins?  Blessed  be  thy  coming  unto  me,  and
       blessed the sweetness of the love which hath constrained
       thee to visit me, thy poor and worthless creature. I cast
       myself  now  in  the  very  dust  before  thy  Face  with  the
       most  profound  humility  and  due  reverence,  and  I  kiss
       thy most sacred Feet, and adore thee; and I most humbly
       beseech  thee  that  thou  wouldst  forgive  me  for  having
       received  thee,  my  Lord,  with  so  great  negligence,
       distraction, and lack of devotion. [  A priest may add: for
       having stood at thine altar and touched and handled thee
       with so little reverence, and for having received, etc.]


             Pardon me, O most tender Jesus, and through thy life-
       giving  death  blot  out  my  great  iniquity,  and  vouchsafe
