Saviour of the world, save us; for by Thy cross and by Thy blood Thou hast redeemed us ; help us, we beseech Thee, our God. Amen.

AFTER CONSECRATION.
Look down upon me, good and gentle Jesus, while before Thy face I humbly kneel, and with burning soul pray and beseech Thee to fix deep in my heart lively sentiments of faith, hope and charity, true contrition for my sins, and firm purpose of amendment ; the while I contemplate with great love and tender pity Thy five wounds, pondering over them within me, whilst I call to mind the words which David, Thy prophet, said of Thee, my Jesus : " Foderunt manus meas et pedes meos ; dinumeraverunt omnia ossa mea." "They pierced my hands and my feet; they numbered all my bones," (Ps. xxi. 17, 18.)
Jesus, give holy pastors to Thy Church.
