And Reignest, &c. Amen

IV. The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

O Lord Jesus Christ, who, when the work of her perfection was accomplished, didst call to thyself the soul of thy most holy Mother, and didst not suffer her body to see corruption ; grant us, we beseech thee, the desire of perfection, and daily to purify ourselves more and more from all our faults and imperfections ; so that at the hour of death we may be found worthy to pass to the blessed vision of thy glory ; who livest and reignest, &c. Amen
