| From an unfortunate death, | Deliver us. | |
| From the pains of hell, | ||
| From all evil, | ||
| From the power of the devil, | ||
| Through thy nativity, | ||
| Through thy cross and passion, | ||
| Through thy death and burial, | ||
| Through thy glorious resurrection, | ||
| Through thy admirable ascension, | ||
| Through the grace of the Holy Ghost the comforter, | ||
| In the day of judgment, |
We sinners, do beseech thee to hear us,
That thou spare us, we beseech thee to hear us.
Lord, have mercy on us.
Christ, have mercy on us.
Lord, have mercy on us.
LET US PRAY.
MAY thy clemency vouchsafe, O God! so to confirm thy servants in thy holy grace, that at the hour of their death, the enemy may not prevail against them, but that with thy angels they may deserve to pass into life everlasting; through our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
OMNIPOTENT, and most merciful Creator! who to refresh thy thirsty people in the desert, didst command streams of water to flow from the hardest rocks, draw, we beseech thee, from our dry eyes, and stony hearts, desired tears of perfect compunction, that we may fully detest all sin, and only thirst after the happy and glorious vision of thee, our God, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. Amen.
AN ACT OF CONTRITION.
MY dear Lord Jesus Christ, redeemer of the world! Behold prostrate at thy feet, the most unhappy, and the most ungrateful creature on the face
