 Thee, I  have  gone  after  creatures  and  have forgotten Thee.

I have  forgotten  Thee  in  deserted  tabernacles, where  Thy  love  languishes,  in  the churches of  towns  where  Thou  art  outraged in the  hearts  of  the  indifferent  and  sacrilegious, and in  my  own  sinful  heart,  O  Jesus,  as  well when I  approached  to  receive  Thee,  as  after receiving Thee.

Eucharistic Heart  of  my  Saviour,  the  delight of my  first  communion  and  of  the  days  of my  fidelity,  I  surrender  to  Thee. Return! Return! draw me  to  Thyself  afresh. Pardon me yet  again  this  time;  and  I  shall  hope everything in  the  strength  of  Thy  love.

Glorious Archangel  St.  Michael  and  thou, O beloved  St.  John,  offer  my  reparation  to Jesus  and  be  propitious  to  me. Amen.
