 "Take we  up  the  touching  burden  of  November plaints,

Pleading for  the  holy  souls,  God's  yet  uncrowned saints.

Still unpaid  to  our  departed  is  the  debt  we  owe; Still unransomed,  some  are  pining,  sore  oppressed with woe.

Friends we  loved  and  vowed  to  cherish  call  us  in their  need:

Furthermore,  it  has  been  our  aim to make  "With  God"  a  Vade  Mecum  for  those  who assist at  Mass  and  receive  holy  communion  daily  or frequently,  and  to  equip  the  same  so  lavishly  with Eucharistic devotions  as  to  make  it  a  very  pleasing and helpful  Companion  for  Visits  to  Jesus  in  the Tabernacle, and  in  particular  for  the  Holy  Hour  or the  Hour  of  Adoration;  it  is,  therefore,  a  Book  for Frequent Communicants  and  for  Fervent  Adorers  of the  Blessed  Sacrament. "With God,"  we  trust,  will also prove  acceptable  to  the  members  of  the  Holy  Name Society and  to  all  who  zealously  venerate  and  render special honor  to  the  Most  Holy  Name  of  Jesus.
