4. O most sweet Jesus, through the afflictions which Thou didst suffer in
carrying the cross to Calvary, have pity upon those dear souls, and
particularly upon the one which is nearest to its departure from that most
painful prison.
Have pity upon them, O Jesus, have pity upon them.
Our Father, Hail Mary, and Eternal rest, etc.
O turn to Jesus, etc.
5. O most sweet Jesus, through the tortures which Thou didst suffer in Thy
most cruel crucifixion, have pity upon those dear souls, and especially
upon that one which Thou knowest to be of them all the most destitute of
special suffrages.
Have pity upon them, O Jesus, have pity upon them.
Our Father, Hail Mary, and Eternal rest, etc.
O turn to Jesus, etc.
6. O most sweet Jesus, through the pains which Thou didst suffer in the
most bitter agony which Thou didst undergo upon the cross, have pity upon
those dear souls, and particularly upon the one which among them all would
be the last to depart out of such excruciating pains.
Have pity upon them, O Jesus, have pity upon them.
Our Father, Hail Mary, and Eternal rest, etc.
O turn to Jesus, etc.
7. O most sweet Jesus, through that intense anguish which Thou didst
suffer, when Thou didst breathe out Thy blessed soul, have pity upon those
dear souls, and particularly upon the one which has the greatest claims on
me for help.
Have pity upon them, O Jesus, have pity upon them.
Our Father, Hail Mary, and Eternal rest, etc.
O Mary, let thy Son no more
His lingering spouses thus expect:
God’s children to their God restore,
And to the Spirit His elect.
They are the children of thy tears;
Then hasten, Mother, to their aid;
In pity think each hour appears
An age while glory is delayed.
Pray, then, as thou hast ever prayed;
Angels and souls, all look to thee;
God waits thy prayers, for He hath made
Those prayers His law of charity.
O turn to Jesus, Mother! turn,
And call Him by His tenderest names;
Pray for the holy souls that burn
This hour amid the cleansing flames.
Supplication To The Most Holy Mary.
To thee, O most holy Virgin Mary, my Mother, I turn in supplication, and
through that sword which pierced thy heart, when thou didst behold thy
beloved Son Jesus Christ bow down His head and give up the ghost, I pray
and implore thee, with the greatest confidence, to succor the poor holy
souls in purgatory, and particularly those of which an especial
commemoration has been made. O Mother of sorrows, O Queen of martyrs, for
the love of Jesus Who died for us upon the cross, do thou with thy
powerful prayers give succor also unto us, who are in danger not only of
falling into purgatory, but even of losing ourselves forever. O Mary, our
dear Mother, Mother of grace, Mother of mercy, have pity upon us.
_Ejaculation to be repeated every day during the Octave._
O eternal Father, through the most precious blood of Jesus, and through
the most bitter dolors of Mary, have pity and mercy upon the holy souls in
purgatory. Amen.
