Let us prostrate ourselves before the majesty of the most Holy Trinity,
and uniting our dispositions with those of our blessed Lady and the holy
apostles in the upper room at Jerusalem, let us say one Our Father and one
Hail Mary, to obtain, by the merits of Jesus ascended, the fruits of the
Holy Ghost—long‐suffering and mildness.
Our Father, Hail Mary.
O blessed and happy apostles of Our Lord, who in the upper room did
receive the Holy Spirit with such fulness that thou wert sweetly
inebriated with divine love, we congratulate thee with the most humble and
lively affection, and contemplate thy graces with a holy envy. We beseech
thee, by that love which thou dost bear the Holy Spirit, Who thus filled
thee with His special benedictions, obtain for us efficacious aid rightly
to practise that brotherly concord, that continual prayer, and that tender
devotion to Mary, whereby we can obtain, even as thou didst obtain, the
coming of the Holy Ghost. Amen.
O let us fall and worship Him, etc.
Come, Holy Spirit, etc.
_V._ and _R._ Send forth Thy Spirit, etc.
May the infusion of the Holy Spirit, O Lord, purify our hearts, and by the
inward sprinkling of His gracious dew make them fertile in all good works;
through Our Lord Jesus Christ. In the unity of the same. Amen.
May the blessing, etc.
Fifth Day: Fruits Of Faith And Modesty.

Our Father, Hail Mary.
O eternal Father, how shall we ever bless and praise Thee sufficiently, or
thank Thy goodness as we ought? A thousand times blessed be Thine infinite
charity, Thine infinite providence, and Thine infinite mercy, which moved
Thee to repair our miseries, and to give unto us a gift wherein is
contained all the good that proceedeth from Thee! Thou hast given us also
the Holy Ghost, Who proceedeth from Thy will as Thine uncreated love. What
can we seek for more? And what shall we give unto Thee for so great a
gift? O Lord, vouchsafe, we beseech Thee, of Thy clemency to take for
Thine own all our understanding, all our will, all ourselves, and that
little for all eternity. Amen.
O let us fall and worship Him, etc.
Come, Holy Spirit, etc.
_V._ and _R._ Send forth Thy Spirit, etc.
We beseech Thee, O Lord, that the Paraclete, Who proceedeth from Thee, may
enlighten our minds, and, according to the promise of Thy Son, may lead us
into all truth; through Our Lord Jesus Christ. In the unity of the same.
Amen.
May the blessing, etc.
Sixth Day: Fruits Of Continence And Chastity.
