In Petition.
Hail, Queen of the Most Holy Rosary,
my Mother Mary, hail!
At thy feet I humbly kneel to offer thee
a Crown of Roses,
snow white buds to remind thee of thy joys,
each bud recalling to thee a holy mystery;
each ten bound together with my petition
for a particular grace.
O Holy Queen,
dispenser of God’s graces,
and Mother of all who invoke thee!
Thou cannot look upon my gift
and fail to see its binding.
As thou receive my gift,
so wilt thou receive my petition;
from thy bounty thou wilt give me
the favor I so earnestly seek.
I despair of nothing that I ask of thee.
Show thyself my Mother!
In Thanksgiving.

inspired thee to pray for the Apostles
and the first Christians.

Who, out of the excessive love He bore for thee, His Mther,
whose virginal body was His first tabernacle,
took that body into Heaven and there,
among the acclaims of the Angels and Saints,
reinfuse into it thy soul,
I humbly pray

SPIRITUAL COMMUNION
My Jesus, really present
in the most Holy Sacrament of the Altar,

and abide with me forever;
Thou in me, and I in Thee,
in time and in eternity, in Mary.
Hail, holy Queen,
Mother of mercy,
our life, our sweetness and our hope.

mourning and weeping in this valley of tears.

show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus,
O clement, O loving,
O sweet Virgin Mary!
