       all  angels,  I  would  most  gladly  employ  all  in  thy  love

       alone. But since I cannot love thee as I ought, I beseech
       thee  that  thou  wouldst  love  thyself  for  me  with  a  love
       worthy of thee.
       Lastly: I profess that I desire to die as a true Catholic, and
       to  partake  of  the  most  holy  Sacraments  of  Penance,  of
       Communion, and of Extreme Unction. I desire, moreover,
       to have my part and portion in all the  Masses, prayers,
       and  suffrages  which  shall  be  offered  for  the  faithful
       departed  henceforward  until  the  day  of  judgment.  Yea,
       were  it  in  my  power,  I  would  ordain  that  upon  every
       altar  and  by  every  priest  the  holy  sacrifice  of  the  Mass
       should  be  offered  for  me  after  my  death  to  the  end  of
       time.  But  since  this  cannot  be,  I  beseech  thee,  O  Christ

       Jesus,  that  thou  wouldst  offer  thyself  for  me  to  thy

       Father,  a  holocaust  and  a  perpetual  sacrifice  for  my
       innumerable sins. Moreover, I implore thee to send forth
       for the succor of my soul in its last agony but one of those
       sighs which burst forth from thy Heart in thine exceeding
       sorrow  amidst  the  horrors  of  thine  own  agony,  and  to
       sprinkle upon it for its salvation one single drop of thy
       most precious Blood. Amen.

                HEREFORE,  O  most  blessed  Trinity,  I  now
                profess  and  declare  before  thee  and  all  the
                court  of  heaven  that  all  and  everything
       contained  in  this  testament  is  my  last  sincere  will  and
       intention, in accordance with which I desire to live and to
