In memory of all these pains and sufferings which Thou
didst endure before Thy Passion on the Cross, grant me before my death true contrition, a sincere
and entire confession, worthy satisfaction and the remission of all my sins. Amen

Second Prayer

Oh Jesus! True liberty of angels, Paradise of delights, remember the horror and sadness which Thou
didst endure when Thy enemies, like furious lions, surrounded Thee, and by thousands of insults,
spits, blows, lacerations and other unheard of cruelties, tormented Thee at will. In
consideration of these torments and insulting words, I beseech Thee, oh my Saviour, to deliver me
from all my enemies, visible and invisible, and to bring me, under Thy protection, to the
perfection of eternal salvation. Amen.

Third Prayer

Oh Jesus! Creator of Heaven and earth Whom nothing can encompass or limit, Thou Who dost enfold
and hold all under Thy Loving power, remember the very bitter pain Thou didst suffer when the
Jews nailed Thy Sacred Hands and Feet to the Cross by blow after blow with big blunt nails, and
not finding Thee in a pitiable enough state to satisfy their rage, they enlarged Thy Wounds, and
added pain to pain, and with indescribable cruelty stretched Thy Body on the Cross, pulled You
from all sides, thus dislocating Your Limbs.
