J.M.J.
Most holy Virgin Immaculate, my Mother Mary, it is to you, who are
the Mother of my Lord, the Queen of the world, the advocate, the hope
and the refuge of sinners, that I have recourse today, I, who most of
all am deserving of pity. Most humbly do I offer you my homage, O great
Queen, and I thank you for all the graces you have obtained for me until
now, and particularly for having saved me from Hell, which, by my sins,
I have so often deserved.
I love you, O most lovable Lady, and because of my love for you, I promise to serve you always and to do all in my power to win others to love you also. In your hands I place all my hopes; I entrust the salvation of my soul to your care. Accept me as your servant, O Mother of Mercy; receive me under your mantle. And since you have such power with God, deliver me from all temptations, or rather, obtain for me the strength to triumph over them until death. Of you I ask the grace of perfect love for Jesus Christ. Through your help I hope to die a happy death. O my Mother I beg you, by the love you bear my God, to help me at all times, but especially at the last moment of my life. Do not leave me, I beseech you, until you see me safe in Heaven, blessing you and singing your mercies for all eternity, amen. So I hope, so may it be.
