Prayer before the Recitation: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen. Then say: Hail Mary. In Petition Hail, Queen of the Most Holy Rosary, my Mother Mary, hail! At thy feet I humbly kneel to offer thee a Crown of Roses-----full-blown white roses, tinged with the red of the Passion, to remind thee of thy glories, fruits of the sufferings of thy Son and thee-----each rose recalling to thee a holy mystery; each ten bound together with my petition for a particular grace. O Holy Queen, dispenser of God's graces, and Mother of all who invoke thee! Thou canst not look upon my gift and fail to see its binding. As thou receivest my gift, so wilt thou receive my petition; from thy bounty thou wilt give me the favor I so earnestly and trustingly seek. I despair of nothing that I ask of thee. Show thyself my Mother!  In Thanksgiving Hail, Queen of the Most Holy Rosary, my Mother Mary, hail! At thy feet I gratefully kneel to offer thee a Crown of Roses-----full-blown white roses, tinged with the red of the Passion, to remind thee of thy glories, fruits of the sufferings of thy Son and thee-----each bud recalling to thee a holy mystery; each ten bound together with my petition for a particular grace. O Holy Queen, dispenser of God's graces, and Mother of all who invoke thee! Thou canst not look upon my gift and fail to see its binding. As thou receivest my gift, so wilt thou receive my thanksgiving; from thy bounty thou hast given me the favor I so earnestly and trustingly sought. I despaired not of what I asked of thee, and thou hast truly shown thyself my Mother. Creed, Our Father, 3 Haily Marys, Glory Be to the Father. |
 I THE RESURRECTION O glorious Mother Mary, meditating on the Mystery of the Resurrection of Our Lord from the Dead, when, on the morning of the third day after His death and burial, He arose from the dead and appeared to thee, dear Mother, and filled thy heart with unspeakable joy; then appeared to the holy women, and to His disciples, who adored Him as their risen God, I humbly pray: Our Father, 10 Haily Marys, Glory Be to the Father. and the Fatima Decade Prayer: O MY JESUS, forgive us our sins, save us from the fire of Hell, lead all souls to Heaven, especially those who are most in need of Thy mercy. I bind these full-blown roses with a petition for the virtue of FAITH and humbly lay this bouquest at thy feet. |
Forward takes you to the first meditation of the Glorious Mysteries.
