1. Queen of All Saints, O most powerful mediatrix between God and man! O supreme arbitress of grace, holy Mary, vouchsafe to look upon us with Thine eyes of mercy: obtain for us that we may follow thee in the path of virtue, and merit the favor of thy most powerful intercession, by which we may attain to a share of thy glory in paradise. Three Hail Marys.

2. O heavenly spirits, who from the beginning of the world encircled the throne of the Most High, and who are continually employed in singing His praises, in executing His commands, and who burn in the fire of His love: obtain for us the grace to place all our happiness in obeying the divine laws, and in faithfully performing the duties of our calling, that so we may one day attain to the possession of those thrones which were made void by the rebellion of your companions. Three Glorys.

3. O most faithful patriarchs, most holy prophets, most zealous apostles, most invincible martyrs, most righteous confessors, most chaste matrons, most pure virgins, who now reign with Christ in Heaven, from the bright seats of your blessedness cast your eyes of pity upon us, unhappy exiles in this vale of tears. O happy spirits, pray for us. Obtain for us all grace to walk faithfully in your footsteps, to follow courageously your example, and to copy your virtues in our lives; and that, meditating upon your victories, we may attain to a participation of your immortal glory. Three Glorys.
