Dearest Saviour! it was my sins which condemned Thee! it was to save me from the flames of hell, that Thou didst choose to die upon the Cross. Oh! by that inconceivable love, grant that my journey towards death and eternity may resemble the pilgrimage which Thou didst here begin towards Calvary and Heaven.
The Act of Contrition.
(This Act of Contrition, with the accompanying prayers, &c. is repeated at each Station.)
Oh my God! I love Thee, and grieve that I have ever offended Thee: let me never offend Thee more. Oh may I love Thee without ceasing, and make it my delight to do in all things Thy most blessed will.
