For the poor souls in PurgatoryTo be said on ordinary Rosary beads, by repeating Psalm 130
at the cross; the Our Father on the larger beads; the
following invocation on the smaller beads( instead of the
"Hail Mary" ):
"O good Jesus, have mercy on the souls in Purgatory
(or the soul of N., or the souls of N.), and grant
them eternal rest"
and at the end of each decade ( instead of the "Glory be...."
"Eternal rest grant unto them O Lord, and let perpetual light
shine upon them. May they rest in peace. Amen"
Psalm 130: "Out of the depths I have cried unto thee,
O Lord - Lord hear my voice !
Let Thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.
If thou, O Lord, shalt mark our iniquities,
O Lord, who can abide it ?
For with Thee there is mercy,
and by reason of Thy law
I have waited for Thee, O Lord.
My soul hath waited on His word;
my soul hath hoped in the Lord.
From the morning watch even unto night,
let Israel hope in the Lord.
For with the Lord there is mercy,
and with Him is plentiful redemption.
And He shall redeem Israel
from all its iniquities.
V. Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord.
R. And let perpetual light shine upon them.
Let Us Pray
O God, the Creator and Redeemer of all the
faithful, grant to the souls of Thy departed
servants the full remission of all their sins,
that through our pious supplications they may
obtain that pardon which they have always
desired, Thou who livest and reignest world
without end. Amen.

likewise, O Sorrowful Virgin Mary, present unto the Heavenly
Father, together with the dolorous passion of thy dear son,
thine own sighs and tears,and all the sorrows thou didst suffer
in His suffering, in order that, through the merits of the

sing the mercies of God forever and ever. Amen.

shine upon them. May they rest in peace. Amen

Agony in the garden, in Thy scourging and crowning with
thorns, on thy way to Calvary, and in thy crucifixion and
