through the bloody sweat
which Thou didst suffer in the Garden of Gethsemane,
have mercy on these Blessed Souls.
Have mercy on them.
R. Have mercy on them, O Lord.
O most sweet Jesus,

during Thy most cruel scourging,
have mercy on them.
R. Have mercy on them, O Lord.
O most sweet Jesus,
through the pains which Thou didst suffer
in Thy most painful crowning with thorns,
have mercy on them.
R. Have mercy on them, O Lord.
O most sweet Jesus,
through the pains which Thou didst suffer
in carrying Thy cross to Calvary,
have mercy on them.
R. Have mercy on them, O Lord.
O most sweet Jesus,
through the pains which Thou didst suffer
during Thy most cruel Crucifixion,
have mercy on them.
R. Have mercy on them, O Lord.

in Thy most bitter agony on the Cross,
have mercy on them.
R. Have mercy on them, O Lord.
O most sweet Jesus,
through the immense pain which Thou didst suffer
in breathing forth Thy Blessed Soul,
have mercy on them.
R. Have mercy on them, O Lord.
(Recommend yourself to the Souls in Purgatory and mention your intentions here)
Blessed Souls, I have prayed for thee;
I entreat thee, who are so dear to God,
and who are secure of never losing Him,
to pray for me a miserable sinner,
who is in danger of being damned,
and of losing God forever. Amen.
St. Alphonsus Liguori (1697-1787), from his Novena for the Holy Souls in Purgatory
