desire to receive Thy sacred Body! Oh, come now into my soul, at least by a spiritual communion! Oh, grant that I may worthily receive Thee before my death! I desire to unite myself to all the worthy communions which shall be made in Thy holy Church, even to the end of the world.
7. Grant me the grace, O my Divine Saviour, perfectly to efface all the sins I have committed by any of my senses, by applying daily to my soul Thy blessed merits and the holy unction of Thy precious blood.
8. Holy Virgin, Mother of God, defend me from my enemies in my last hour, and present me to Thy Divine Son. Glorious St. Michael, prince of the heavenly host, and thou, my angel guardian, and you, my blessed patrons, intercede for me, and assist me, in this last and dreadful passage.
9. O my God, I renounce all the temptations of the enemy, and in general whatsoever may displease Thee. I adore and accept of Thy Divine appointments with regard to me, and entirely abandon myself to them as most just and equitable.
