This Belief

grant that I may worthily receive thee before my death ! I desire to unite myself to all the worthy Communions which shall be made in thy holy Church, even to the end of the world. 7.

Grant me the grace, O my divine Saviour, per- fectly to efface all the sins I have committed by any of my senses, by applying daily to my soul thy blessed merits, and the holy unction of thy precious blood. 8.

Holy Virgin, Mother of God, defend me from my enemies in my last hour, and present me to tby divine Son. Glorious St. Michael, prince of the heavenly host, and thou, my angel guardian, and you, my blessed pa- trons, intercede for me, and assist me in this last and dreadful passage. 9.

O my God, I renounce all the temptations of the enemy, and whatsoever may in any way displease thee. I adore and accept of thy divine appointments with re- gard to me, and entirely abandon myself to them as most just and equitable. 10.

O Jesus, my divine Saviour, be thou a Jesus to me, and save me.

O my God, hiding myself with an humble confidence in thy dear wounds, I give up my soul into thy divine hands. Oh, receive it into the bosom of thy mercy. Amen
