 evil hadst  Thou  done  me? Ah! for the  love  of Jesus,  have  pity  on  me. Henceforth, Lord,  no  more sins; I  wish  to  employ  the  remainder  of  my  life  in loving  Thee.

To expiate  my  offences  against  Thee,  O  my  God,  I offer  Thee  my  death  and  all  the  sufferings  I  shall have to  endure  until  the  end,  by  uniting  them  to those  of  Jesus  crucified  for  me.

O Mary,  obtain  for  me  true  sorrow  for  my  sins, and also  pardon  and  perseverance.

Y God, because  Thou  art  of  infinite  goodness and worthy  of  infinite  love,  I  love  Thee beyond every  created   thing,  I  love  Thee more than  myself,  I  love  Thee  with  my  whole  heart.

Lord, I  am  not  worthy  of  loving  Thee,  because  I have  offended  Thee;  but  for  Jesus'  sake  grant  that I may  love  Thee.

Would that  I  could  see  Thee  loved  by  all!

I rejoice  in  Thine  infinite  happiness.

My Jesus,  I  desire  to  suffer  and  die  for  Thy  sake, since Thou  didst  suffer  and  die  for  mine.

Chastise me,  Lord,  as  seemeth  best  to  Thee;  but deprive me  not  of  the  power  of  loving  Thee.

I desire  paradise  that  I  may  love  Thee  eternally with my  whole  heart.

Lord, send  me  not  to  hell,  though  such  is  what  I deserve;  for  there  I  ought  to  hate  Thee,  and  I  know not how. What hast  Thou  done  to  me  that  I  should ever hate  Thee? Grant that  I  may  love  Thee,  and then send  me  where  Thou  wilt.

I desire  to  suffer  all  that  it  pleases  Thee  to  send me; I  desire  to  die  that  I  may  do  Thy  will.

Bind me,  my  Jesus,  so  firmly  to  Thyself  that  I  may never again  be  separated  from  Thee.

My God,  may  I  be  all  Thine  before  my  death.
