PRAYERS TO BE RECITED BT THE ASSISTANTS WHEN ATTENDING A DYING PERSON.

Lay before him all those drops of blood which in the anguish of thy spirit flowed from thy body, and offer them for the remission of all [his] sins; that, in this hour of extremity, [he] may be discharged from that handwriting of sin which stands against [him], and from that punishment which [he] fears to be too justly due to [his] sins.
Our Father, etc. Hail Mary, etc.
Lord Jesus Christ! who for our salvation wast pleased to suffer death on the cross, we beseech thee to offer up all the anguish and pains thou didst then endure in behalf of this thy servant, that they may be accepted in [his] favour, for the good of [his] soul, for the obtaining a happy hour, and for the release from that punishment which [he] has deserved for [his] sins.
Our Father, etc. Hail Mary, etc.
Lord Jesus Christ! who hadst such a boundless love for us as induced thee to become man for our salvation, we beseech thee to let this thy infinite charity and goodness towards mankind so plead with thy Eternal Father in behalf of this thy poor servant , that, by thy powerful mediation, [his] soul, at the moment of its departure from the body, being freed from the bonds of sin, may find a free admittance
