Concluding Prayer:
Hail Holy Queen, Mother of
Mercy, our life, our sweetness,
and our hope. To thee do we cry,
poor banished children of Eve.
To thee do we send up our sighs,
mourning and weeping in this
valley of tears. Turn then, most
gracious advocate, thine eyes of
mercy towards us, and after
this, our exile, show unto us
the blessed fruit of thy womb,
Jesus. Oh Holy, Oh Clement, Oh
Sweet Virgin Mary, pray for us,
Oh Holy Mother of God, that we
may be made worthy of the
promises of Christ. Amen.
