O Mother of Perpetual Succor behold me a miserable sinner at thy feet. I have recourse to thee and put my trust in thee. O Mother of Mercy, have pity on me. I hear thee called by all, the refuge and the hope of sinners, be then my refuge and my hope. Succor me for the love of Jesus Christ; Stretch forth thy hand to me, a poor sinner, who recommend myself to thee as thy perpetual servant. I bless and thank God for having in His Mercy given me this confidence in Thee, the pledge, as I believe, of my eternal salvation. Alas, too often in past times have i miserably fallen because i had no recourse to thee. I know that with thy help I shall conquer. I know that thou will help me, if I recommend myself to
thee, but i fear lest in the occasion of falling, I should cease to call upon
thee, and, so should loose my soul. This then is the grace i seek from thee, and I beg of thee, as far as I know how and can, to obtain it for me, namely, in the assaults of hell, always to have recourse to thee and to say to thee : O Mary, help me, Mother of Perpetual Succor, suffer me not to loose my God. Amen.
