 Thou hast  spent  Thy  life;  and  shall  I  be  reserved  with  Thee? Even a  thousand  hearts  are  too  little  to  love  Thee,  and  shall I give  a  part  of  this,  my  miserable  heart,  to  creatures? No Thou  dost  wish  for  it  entirely;  I  give  it  wholly  to  Thee. Accept my being,  O  my  Jesus,  my  Love,  and  my  Spouse. I am Thine,  and  entirely  Thine:  dispose  of  me  as  Thou  pleasest.

Mary, my  hope,  unite  me  with  thy  Son  Jesus;  make  me belong  entirely  to  him. From thee  I  desire  this  favor;  from thee I  hope  for  it.
