soul. Implant in my heart to fulfill Thy commandments, and to forsake evil deeds, and to
obtain Thy blessings; for in Thee, 0 Lord, have I hoped, save me.
out the mercy of thy Son and our God upon my passionate soul, and by Thine
intercessions guide me unto good works, that I may pass the remaining time of my life
without blemish, and attain paradise through thee, 0 Virgin Theotokos, who alone art
pure and blessed.
wherein I have sinned this day, and deliver me from all opposing evil of mine enemy
lest I anger my God by any sin. Pray for me, a sinful and unworthy servant,
the Mother of my Lord Jesus Christ, and of all the saints.
