PRAYER TO THE BLESSED VIRGIN
(Prayer of Leo Papin Dupont, the Holy Man of Tours)
O Mary, Virgin most holy, I place myself under your protection, and
through you I throw myself with confidence into the arms of divine
mercy; to you I commit all the moments of my life and above all the
hour of my death, I commit to you my body and my soul and all that
belongs to me. Kindly receive once more my troubles and my fears, my
consolations and my hope, so that by your powerful protection and your
merits, I may have in all my actions, for one only and unique end your
good pleasure and the holy will of your divine Son.
PRAYER TO THE HOLY VIRGIN(To obtain the grace to live in union with Jesus redeeming Passion)
The sorrowful Mother was in tears standing beside the Cross
on which her Son hung.
Into her weeping, broken heart, the sword was pierced.
How sad and afflicted was the Mother
blessed above all, the Mother of the only Son!
How she suffered, how stricken she was,
the tender Mother, in contemplating her divine Son tormented!
Who could contemplate the sorrowful Mother of Christ
without suffering like her?
For the sins of all His people, she saw Him in His torments,
suffering the blows of the whip.
She saw her most dear child dying in desolation,
while He gave up His spirit.Please, O Mother, source of love,
make me to feel your sufferings so that I may weep with you.
O holy Mother, help to engrave
the Crucifieds wounds deeply in my heart!
As a good son, may I weep with you all the days of my life!

MEDITATION ON THE PASSION AND DEATH
OF THE HOLY FACE OF JESUS
EIGHTH DAY
THE HOLY FACE UPON THE CROSS
All kneel
All:Lord, I desire to search again for Your Face; so do not push me
far away from it on account of my sins; do not take Your Holy Spirit
away from me. Let the light of Your Face shine upon me; instruct me in
the way of Your commandments.
All be seated
Leader: Upon the cross, where He is placed as upon an altar of
propitiation between heaven and earth, Our Lord makes himself our
intermediary, our Mediator.
I. THE PARDON GRANTED. Raising His gazes veiled with
tears towards the Heavenly Father, He begs for our pardon: Father
forgive them. O Father remit the debt of sinners; restore Your
friendship with them. Then, turning Himself towards us, He lovingly
inclines His Head as if to offer us the kiss of peace and reconciliation.
Oh! How touching this attitude of the Redeemer! What sufferings upon
this bed of anguishes! What prolonged agony! And also what patience,
what sweetness, what ineffable serenity in His action and His words!
Up to seven times this divine Saviour makes a respite in His grief,
grief, opens His blessed lips; each of His words is a lesson, a grace, like
a supreme and reiterated adieu which He addresses to the world. He
does not murmur, not become angry; He prays, pardons, blesses; finally
He gives a loud cry and gives up the last breath.

II. THE APPEAL MADE TO DIVINE MERCY. O God, our
Creator and our Father, we dare not raise our eyes to You, because we
have sinned; we have abused Your innumerable benefits; we are greatly
culpable, we merit the blows of Your justice. But, Lord, see Your Christ
upon the cross; look at His merciful and compassionate Face which
implores You. Listen to the cry of His prayer. See the tears, the thorns
of His crown, the blood with which He is inundated. See Him mute,
lifeless, frozen by death. He has given Himself up to death for us, O
Father; He has prayed to You on behalf of us. He has desired to appease
Your anger. Look, look at the Face of Your well-beloved Christ in this
state, Pardon us, Father most clement, and save us.
III.CHRISTIAN PARDON.Jesus on the cross what instructionYou give me! Your charity has reached up to pardoning Your
executioners and in praying for them. It is above all for those who have
struck You, bruised You, buffeted You, covered with spittle, that You
have said: Father, forgive them for they know not what they are doing.
When they struck You, You bore it patiently and in silence; now You
raise Your voice to excuse them and defend them, to obtain their
pardon, in offering Your Blood for them; You give them the greatest
proof of your love. Teach me this support of my neighbor and this
generosity of pardon, even in regard to the most cruel enemy. Yes, for
love of You, I pardon all those who have offended me. With You, I
pray for the sinners who offend You, for the unhappy ones who
blaspheme You, I ask You for their conversion and their salvation. That
they may turn towards You only and that they may invoke You, It is
enough: whosoever will gaze at Your Face with faith and repentance,
will escape the serpents wound and will find life.
ACT OF GENEROUS LOVEMy God, I forget the wrongs which
have been committed against me; I pardon all those who have offended
me in any way; I love them sincerely; I pray to you for them and ask
their salvation of You.

VIRTUE TO PRACTICE Bear with the wrongs and coldness of
your neighbor; accept what is painful in them with your whole heart in
a spirit of reparation on account of that which the Saviour has suffered
for you.
SPIRITUAL BOUQUET God, our protector, incline Your Eyes
upon the Face of Your Christ.
All kneel
All: I have prayed before your Face with my whole Heart (Psalm
118:58): have pity on me according to your promise.
Let the light of Your Face shine upon me in Your mercy, Lord, I shall
not be confounded, because I have called upon You. All powerful and
merciful God, grant, we beg of You, that in venerating the Face of Your
Christ, disfigured in His Passion because of our sins, we may merit to
contemplate It eternally, in the light of celestial glory, through the same
Jesus Christ, Our Lord. Amen.
