Compline 10 P.M.

May Jesus Christ, thy Son, appeased by thy prayers, O Lady, convert our hearts. And turn away His anger from us.

O Lady, make speed to befriend me.

From the hands of the enemy mightily defend me.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost:

As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. Alleluia.

Hymn

Hail, Mother most pure!
Hail, Virgin renowned!
Hail, Queen with the stars,
As a diadem, crowned!

Above all the Angels
In glory untold,
Standing next to the King
In a vesture of gold.

O Mother of mercy!
O Star of the wave!
O Hope of the guilty!
O Light of the grave!

Through thee may we come
To the haven of rest;
And see heaven’s King
In the courts of the blest.

Amen.

Thy name, O Mary, is as oil poured out.

Thy servants have loved thee exceedingly.

O Lady, hear my prayer.

And let my cry come unto thee.

Let us bless the Lord.

Thanks be to God.

May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.

Amen.

The Commendation

These praises and prayers I lay at thy feet,

O Virgin of virgins!
O Mary most sweet!

Be thou my true guide
Through this pilgrimage here,
And stand by my side
When my death draweth near.

Amen.

Thanks be to God.
