Day 1
O PRIVILEGED Virgin, most blessed St. Catherine de Ricci, I rejoice from my heart in thy bliss, the exceeding great reward of thy crucified life on earth. Thou didst early burst every human tie and generously offer the morning of thy life to God. Oh, let not thy bright example be lost on me; pray that now, at least, I may begin to love my God—that his cross may become my delight; his sufferings, the study of my life; and intimate union with him, the only joy of my soul. O victim of charity, take pity on my miseries, beg for me sincere sorrow for my past sins, and full remission of them. Obtain that by constant meditation on the bitter Passion of my Redeemer, I may find as thou didst, in the wounded Heart of Jesus, an asylum of security and a haven of peace and rest. Amen.
