Isaiah 11:1‐10 - "With righteousness he shall judge the poor."
Romans 15:4‐9 - "Christ saves humanity."
Matthew 3:1‐12 - "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known
that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help,
or sought thine intercession was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother;
to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful.
O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions,
but in thy mercy hear and answer me.
Amen.
