Rh Let us adore the Eternal Son, saying a Pater, Ave, and Gloria, and then,

I adore Thee too, Eternal Son, in union with all the heavenly host, my Lord, my God, and my Redeemer, rendering Thee never-ending praises on the part of Mary, Virgin most blessed. Thy well-beloved mother, for every grace and favour Thou hast granted her, and above all, for the gift of deepest wisdom with which Thou didst glorify her on her Assumption into heaven.

Let us adore the Holy Ghost, saying a Pater, Ave, and Gloria, and then,

I adore Thee also, O Holy Ghost the Comforter, and in union with all the heavenly host I render Thee hearty thanks in the name of Mary, Virgin most blessed. Thy most loving spouse, for every grace and favour Thou hast granted her, and above all for that gift of charity, most perfect and divine, with which Thou didst inflame her most holy and most pure heart in the act of her most glorious Assumption into heaven. In the name of that chastest spouse of Thine I humbly beg of Thee to grant me the grace of remission of all the grievous sins which I have committed from the first moment when I was able to sin until this very day, for all of which I grieve exceedingly, firmly purposing rather to die than ever again offend Thy Divine Majesty; and relying on the high merits and most powerful protection of this Thy loving spouse, I beg of Thee to grant me and to N. the precious gift of Thy heavenly grace and holy love, vouchsafing me those lights and special helps, by means of which Thy eternal providence has decreed me my salvation and to bring me to Thyself.
