Great God, who, by an effect of thine infinite goodness, hast renewed, in our days, in the apostolic charity and humility of thy blessed servant

Vincent, the spirit of thy wellbeloved Son, to preach the Gospel to the poor, relieve the afflicted, console the miserable, and add new lustre to the ecclesiastical order; grant, we beseech thee, through his powerful intercession, that we also, being delivered from the great misery of sin, may labour to please thee by the practice of the same humility. Through Jesus Christ our Lord, &c. Amen.

We sinners,

Beseech thee, hear us. Thou who forgavest Magdalen, and hearkenedst to the prayer of the thief, Thou who savest freely thine elect,

Thou who hast the keys of death and hell,

That thou wouldst be pleased to deliver the souls of our parents, relations, friends, and benefactors, from the pains of hell, That thou wouldst be pleased to have mercy on those of whom no special remembrance is made on earth,

That thou wouldst be pleased to grant them all the pardon and remission of their sins,

That thou wouldst be pleased to fulfil all their desires,

That thou wouldst be pleas

ed to receive them into the company of the Blessed, King of awful majesty, Son of God,

We beseech thee, hear us.

Lamb of God, who takest away
the sins of the world,
Grant unto them rest.

From the gate of hell,

Deliver their souls, O Lord.

O Lord, hear my prayer.
And let my cry come unto thee.

Let us pray.

O God, the Creator and Redeemer of all the faithful, grant unto the souls of thy servants departed the remission of all their sins; that, by pious supplications, they may obtain the pardon which they have always desired. Grant this, O God, who livest and reignest for ever and ever. Amen.

O eternal God, who, besides the general precept of charity, hast commanded a particular respect to parents, kin

dred, and benefactors; grant, we beseech thee, that, as they were the instruments by which thy providence bestowed on us our birth, education, and innumerable other blessings, So our prayers may be the means to obtain for them a speedy release from their excessive sufferings, and free admittance to thine infinite joys. Through Jesus, &c.

V. Eternal rest give unto them, O Lord.

y. May they rest in peace. Ry. Amen.

O God the Father, Creator of the world,

Have mercy on the souls of the faithful departed.

O God the Son, Redeemer of mankind,

Deliver the souls of the faithful departed.

O God the Holy Ghost, Perfecter of the elect, Accomplish the bliss of the souls of the faithful departed.

O sacred Trinity, Three Persons and One God,

Give rest to the souls of the faithful departed.

Blessed Virgin Mary, who,
by a special privilege of
grace, wast triumphantly
assumed into the king-
dom of thy Son,
Blessed Angels, who, or-
dering aright the first
act of your will, were
immediately settled in an
unchangeable state of
felicity,

Blessed Patriarchs, whose
spirits were filled with
joy, when the Desired
of all nations brought
redemption to your long
captivity,
Blessed Prophets, who,

Pray for the souls, &c.

having patiently awaited the coming of the Messias, were at length refreshed with the happy visit of his divine Person,

O all ye blessed Saints, who, after the glorious Resurrection of your Saviour, were by him translated from the bosom of Abraham to the clear vision of God, Blessed Apostles, who, at

the

the last and terrible day, shall sit on the twelve thrones, judging tribes of Israel, Blessed Disciples of our Lord, who, following his sacred steps in the narrow path of perfection, went straight on to the heavenly Jerusalem,

Blessed Martyrs, who, passing through the red sea of your own blood, without journeying through a tedious wilderness, entered immediately into the Land of Promise, Blessed Confessors, who, despising the vanities here below, and placing your affections on the joys above, are arrived at the full possession of all your desires, Blessed Virgins, who, watching continually with your lamps prepared, were ready, at the first voice of the chaste Spouse of heaven, to enter with him into the marriage-chamber, O all ye holy Saints, who, not retaining at your death the least irregular

adherence to any creature, were perfectly capable of an immediate union with your Creator,

Be merciful, O Lord, And pardon their sins. Be merciful, O Lord, And hear our prayers. From the shades of death, where they sit, deprived of the blissful light of thy countenance,

From the evils to which

their defective mortifications in this world have

exposed them in the other, From thine anger, which now too late they grieve to have provoked by their negligence and ingratitude,

From the bonds of sin, wherein they remain entangled by the disorder of their affections, From the pains of Purgatory, justly inflicted on them as the proper effects of their sins, From that dreadful prison, whence there is no release till they have paid the last farthing, From all their torments, incomparably greater than the sharpest pains of this life,

By thy never-failing mercy and compassion towards the frailties of human nature, By the infinite merits of thy death upon the Cross, where thou reconciledst the world to thy Father, By thy victorious Descent into hell, to break

asunder the chains of death, and free such as were imprisoned, By thy glorious Resurrection from the grave, when thou openedst the kingdom of heaven to believers,

By thy triumphant Ascension into heaven, when thou ledst captivity captive, and promisedst to prepare a place for thy servants,

By thy dreadful Coming to judge the world, when the works of every one shall be tried by fire, We sinners, Beseech thee, hear us. That it would please thee to hasten the day of visiting thy faithful, detained in the receptacles of sorrow, and transport them to the City of eternal peace,

That it would please thee to shorten the time of expiation of their sins, and graciously admit them into thy holy sanctuary, where no unclean thing can enter,

That it would please thee, through the prayers and alms of thy Church, and especially through the adorable Sacrifice of thy Altar, to receive them into the tabernacles of rest, and crown their longing hopes with everlasting fruition,

That the blessed vision of Jesus may comfort them, and the glorious light of his cross shine upon them, That thy holy Angels may

Deliver them, O Lord.

We beseech thee, hear us.

bring them into the land of the living, and the glorious Queen of Saints present them before thy throne,

That the venerable Patriarchs may meet them, and all the ancient Prophets rejoice to see them, That the sacred college of Apostles may open to them the gates of bliss, and the victorious army of Martyrs conduct them to thy palace, That the blessed company of Confessors may place them in seats of eternal glory, and the chaste train of Virgins, with heavenly anthems, congratulate their reception,

That the whole triumphant Church may celebrate the jubilee of their deliverance, and all the choirs of Angels sing hymns of joy for their new and never-ending happiness,

That, in the midst of all these triumphs, the souls that are delivered may themselves adore the glorious Author of their happiness, and in their white robes eternally sing: Alleluia ! salvation to our God, who sitteth upon the throne, and to the Lamb that redeemed us by his blood, and made us kings to reign with him for ever,

Son of God,

We beseech thee, hear us.

Lamb of God, who wilt cor with glory to judge the living and the dead,
