O God, who, for the re- demption of the world, wast pleased to be born in a stable, and to die upon a cross ; O Lord Jesus Christ, by thy holy Sufferings, which we, thy un- worthy servants, devoutly call to mind, by thy holy Cross, and by thy Death, deliver us from the pains of hell, and vouch- safe to conduct us whither thou didst conduct the thief who was crucified with thee. Who livest and reignest eter- nally in heaven. Amen
