 grant me  the  grace  to  profit  by  the  remainder  of  my life,  that  I  may  bring  forth  fruits  worthy  of  penance, and thus  disarm  the  divine  justice,  provoked  by  my repeated  sins.

Our Father &c. Hail Mary,  &amp;c. Glory be  to  the Father, &c.

O holy  Mother! impress deeply  on  my  heart  the Wounds of  my  crucified  Jesus.

MY divine  Saviour! I adore  the  sacred  Wound of thy  right  hand,  and  I  feelingly  compassionate the intense  pain  it  caused  thee. I thank  thee  for  all the blessings  which  this  bountiful  hand  has  so  abundantly bestowed  on  me,  notwithstanding  my  ingratitude in refusing  to  correspond  with  thy  gracious  designs. I offer  to  the  eternal  Father,  the  love  and  sufferings of thy  holy  Humanity;  and  I  beseech  him  to  change my heart  and  affections,  and  to  render  all  my  actions conformable to  his  holy  will.

Our Father,  Hail  Mary,  &amp;c. Glory be  to  the Father, &c.

O holy  Mother! impress deeply  on  my  heart  the Wounds of  my  crucified  Jesus.

MY divine  Saviour! I humbly  adore  the  sacred Wound of  thy  opened  side. I am  exceedingly moved at  this  cruel  outrage. I thank  thee  for  the  love with which  thou  didst  suffer  thy  side  to  be  pierced, and thy  heart  opened,  to  give  us  even  the  last  drop  of thy  precious  blood,  that  our  redemption  might  be  most abundant. I offer  to  the  eternal  Father,  both  this  outrage offered  to  thy  holy  Humanity,  and  the  love  with which thou  art  always  ready  to  receive  the  greatest sinners, that  my  soul  may  be  received  into  this  most loving Heart,  and  may  abide  therein  for  ever. Amen.
