May Avail Me and Them to Life Everlasting. Amen

We offer thee, O Lord, the chalice of salvation, be- seeching thy clemency, that it may ascend before thy divine Majesty, as a sweet perfume, for our salvation, and for that of the whole world. Accept us, O Lord, in the spirit of humility and a contrite heart: and grant that the sacrifice wnich we offer this day in thy sight may be pleasing to thee, O Lord God. At the Lavabo. Oh, what cleanness and purity of heart ought we to bring with us to this great sacrifice ! but, alas, I am a poor unclean sinner. Oh, wash me, dear Lord, from all the stains of sin in the blood of the Lamb, that I may be worthy to be present at these heavenly mysteries. After the Lavabo, when the Priest hows down at the middle of the Altar .

O most holy and adorable Trinity, vouchsafe to re- ceive this our sacrifice in remembrance of our Saviour’s passion, resurrection, and glorious ascension : and grant that we may die yith him to our sins, rise with him to a new life, and ascend with him to thee. Let those saints, whose memory we celebrate on earth, remember us be- fore thy throne in heaven, and obtain mercy for us, through the same Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
