For me, kind Jesus, was thy incarnation, thy mortal sorrow, and thy life's oblation; Thy death of anguish and thy bitter passion, for my salvation. Therefore, kind Jesus, since I cannot pay thee, I do adore thee, and will ever pray thee, think on thy pity and thy love unswerving, not my deserving J Heerman

My God, my lover, I thirst after Thee, I hunger after Thee. As I can, not as I ought, having in mind Thy passion, Thy buffetings, The scourgings, The wounds, remembering how Thou wast slain for my sake, how thou wast embalmed, how and where Though wast buried, I sit with Mary at the sepulchre in my heart weeping. Where faith hath laid Thee, hope seeketh to find Thee, love to anoint Thee. Come now, O Lord, rerveal Thy face to me, show Thy mercy to those who implore it. We know that Thy Resurrection is accomplished: manifest to our eyes Thy blessed incorruption. Abide with us, abide with us until the morning. Let us enjoy Thy presence; let us be glad and rejoice in Thy Resurrection. The darkness thickens, the evening cometh fast. May our sun, the Light eternal, Christ out God, show us the light of His countenance! Amen St. Anselm
