O my God, who art infinitely good, and always hatest sin, I beg pardon from my heart for all my offences against thee; I detest them all and am heartily sorry for them, because they offend thy infinite goodness, and I firmly resolve by the help of thy grace never more to offend thee, and carefully to avoid the occasions of sin. Holy Mary, be a mother to me. O my good Angel, guard me in all my ways. All ye Angels and Saints of God, pray for me.

May our Lord bless us, and preserve us from all evil, and bring us to life everlasting; and may the souls of the faithful, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

In the name of the Father, ✠ and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.

O my God, I believe that thou art here present; I adore thee, and I love thee with all my heart.

I return thee thanks for all the benefits which I have ever received from thee, and particularly this day. Give me light, O my God, to see what sins I have committed this day, and grant me grace to be truly sorry for them.

Here examine whether you have offended God during the day, by any thought, word, deed, or by the neglect of any duty.

Our Father. Hail, Mary. I believe in God.

I confess to Almighty God, to blessed Mary ever Virgin, to blessed Michael the Archangel, to blessed John the Baptist, to the holy Apostles Peter and Paul, and to all the Saints, that I have sinned exceedingly in thought, word, and deed, through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault. Therefore, I beseech the blessed Mary ever Virgin; the blessed Michael the Archangel, the blessed John the Baptist, the holy Apostles Peter and Paul, and all the Saints, to pray to the Lord our God for me.

Into thy hands, O Lord, I commend my spirit: Lord Jesus, receive my soul.

Holy Mary, be a mother to me.

O my good Angel, watch over me this night.

All ye Angels and Saints of God, pray for me.

May our Lord bless us, and preserve us from all evil, and bring us to life everlasting; and may the souls of the faithful, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
