 {{c|{{sc|at the last gospel. }}

Eternal Word, speak to my soul, which adores Thee in profound silence; Thou Who art the great creator of all things, abandon not, I beseech Thee, Thy own creature : be Thou my life, my light, and my all.

Light Eternal, enlighten me as to this present life, and in the life to come.

Reign in me as in Thine own inheritance ; for Thou, Lord, hast made me ; Thou hast redeemed me. May I be ever Thine !

{{c|PRAYER AFTER MASS.}}

I return Thee humble thanks, Lord, that Thou hast permitted me, the most unworthy of Thy creatures, to bear a part in this great sacrifice. Pardon, Lord, all my distractions ; and may Thy merits enable me to enter the august temple of that heavenly country, where the great sacrifice of Thy love is fulfilled, and where the soul lives eternally in God, and God in the soul.
