O Most Holy Virgin,
Mother of our Lord Jesus Christ:
by the overwhelming grief
you experienced when you witnessed
the martyrdom,
the crucifixion,
and the death of your divine Son,
look upon me with eyes
of compassion and awaken
in my heart a tender
commiseration for those sufferings,
as well as a sincere
detestation of my sins,
in order that,
being disengaged from all
undue affections for
the passing joys of this earth,
I may long for the eternal Jerusalem,
and that henceforth
all my thoughts and all my actions
may be directed toward
this one most desirable object.
Honor, glory, and love
to our Divine Lord Jesus,
and to the Holy and Immaculate Mother of God.
Amen.
