THE MEMORARE OF ST. BERNARD.

Remember, O most pious Virgin Mary! that never was it known that any one, who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, and sought thy intercession, was left unaided.

Inspired with this confidence, I fly to thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother! To thee I come, before thee I stand sinful and sorrowful; O Mother of the Word Incarnate! despise not my petitions, but, in thy mercy, hear and answer me. Amen.
