During the week prayers are said and devotions are practised in accordance with this classification. As "The Crown of Jesus" suggests:

"It would also be well to devote particular days to meditation on particular subjects, for instance:

"Sunday — the Holy Trinity — faith, hope, and charity — love of God — conformity to the will of God — desire of heaven.

"Monday — the Holy Ghost — the duties of your state of life — the sanctification of your actions — fidelity to the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.

"Tuesday — the Holy Angels — your ruling; passion — the virtues — venial sin — mortal sin.

"Wednesday — St. Joseph — the example of patron saints — the Childhood of Our Lord — the works of mercy.

"Thursday — the Blessed Sacrament — virtues taught by Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament (i.e., humility, silence, forbearance) — the Holy Mass.

"Friday — the Passion of Our Lord — the virtues specially taught by the Passion, i.e., resignation, fraternal charity, mortification — the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
