Who Are of This Confraternity

Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be to the Father, &c. oy PASSION OF OUR LORD.

O Lord Jesus Christ ! I humbly adore the most sacred wound in thy blessed side, ren- dering all thanks to thee for the immense love manifested towards us, at the opening of thy most sacred heart ; I tenderly condole with thy most afflicted Mother.

Grant me a burning lore, and a perfect charity ; that loving thee above all things, and all things for thee, my miserable soul may, by the assistance of thy holy grace, breathe forth its last into the sacred wound of thy blessed side. I humbly pray, dear Jesus ! that thou wilt protect thy holy church, that thou wilt direct the governing vicar on earth, and all ecclesiastical orders and secular persons, who are instrumental in bringing souls to thee. Preserve in thy service all Christian kings and princes. Lead into the way of salvation all those who are gone astray, whether through malice or ignorance. Bring under thy sweet yoke all infidels, heretics, and ene- mies of thy name. Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be to the Father, &c. LET US PRAY. % O Lord Jesus Christ ! God of my heart ; by those wounds which the love of us inflicted on thee, succour thy servants, whom thou hast redeemed with thy precious blood.

R. Amen
