 May thy  power  defend,  thy  wisdom  direct,  thy  fatherly pity chastise  me,  and  make  me  so  to  live  here  among men, as  may  fit  me  for  the  conversation  of  angels  hereafter.

Have mercy  on  all  sinners,  Jesus,  I  beseech  thee; turn their  vices  into  virtues,  and  having  made  them  true observers of  thy  law,  and  sincere  lovers  of  thee,  bring them to  bliss  in  everlasting  glory.

Have mercy  also  on. all the  souls  in  purgatory,- for  thy bitter passion,  I  beseech  thee,  and  for  thy  glorious  name, Jesus.

O blessed  Trinity,  one  eternal  God,  have  mercy  on  me.

Glory be  to  the  Father,  &amp;c.

Our Father,  &amp;c.

Hail Mary,  &amp;c.

Jesus, Jesus,  Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,  Jesus,  ---> grant me grace to call for help to thee. Jesus, Jesus,  Jesus,

Jesus, grant  me  grace  in  all  my  necessities  to  call  for help to  thee,  and  faithfully  to  remember  thy  death  and. resurrection for  me.

Wilt thou  be  deaf  to  my  cries,  who  wouldst  lay  down thy life  for  my  ransom? or canst  thou  not  save  me,  who couldst take  it  up  again  for  my  crown?

Whom have  I  to  invoke  but  thee,  O  my  Jesus,  whose own blessed  mouth  has  pronounced,  Call  upon  me  in  the day of  trouble,  and  I  will  relieve  thee.

Thou art  my  sure  rock  of  defence  against  all  kinds of enemies;  thou  art  my  ever,  present  grace,  able  to strengthen  me  to  fight  and  conquer.

In all  my  sufferings,  therefore,  in  all  my  weakness  and temptations, will  I  confidently  call  upon  thee;  hear  mo O  my  Jesus,  and  when  thou  nearest,  have  mercy.

Have mercy  on  all  sinners,  &c.

Glory be  to  the  Father,  &amp;c.

Our Father,  &amp;c.

Hail Mary,  &amp;c.
