The Memorare
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was
it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored
thy help or sought thy intercession, was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin
of virgins my Mother; to thee do I come, before thee
I stand, sinful and sorrowful; O Mother of the Word
Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy
hear and answer me, Amen.
