Often Appeared Before Thee with Irreverence,

Googlr DAY IN THE WEEK. 207 and so often approached thee with so little fervour and devotion. Forget, 0 Lord, our iniquities, and remem- ber only thy mercies. Accept my sincere de- sire to honour thee and see tnee honoured, in this admirable sacrament of thy love. Yes, I ardently desire to praise, bless, and adore thee therein, with as much love as the saints and angels do, encircled with the rays of in- effable glory in thy heavenly kingdom.

O amiable Jesus, I conjure thee by thy precious body and blood, before which I now prostrate myself, that I may adore thee for the future with such reverence, and receive thee so worthily, as to deserve after death to be ad- mitted into thy Divine presence, and with the choirs of celestial spirits praise and glorify thee for ever and ever. Amen
