Prayer in Honour of the Sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary

Most holy and afflicted Virgin,

Queen of Martyrs,

you stood beneath the cross,

witnessing the agony of your dying Son.

Look with a mother's tenderness and pity on me,

who kneel before you.

I venerate your sorrows

and I place my requests

with filial confidence

in the sanctuary of your wounded heart.

Present them, I beseech you,

on my behalf to Jesus Christ,

through the merits of His own most sacred passion and

death,

together with your sufferings
