Day 1
Novena to St. Dominic. 1
-
O GLORIOUS St. Dominic, who were from your earliest infancy the admiration of all the world, by the continual practice of prayer, fasting, vigils, and all kinds of austerity, as well as by the most zealous custody of all your senses, and the most active charity to your neighbor, depriving yourself of all your wealth that you might supply the necessities of the poor: obtain for us the grace to apply ourselves continually to exercises of piety, penance, and charity, and, by the sanctification of our own souls, to promote the salvation of our neighbor.
Glory be, etc.
-
O glorious St. Dominic, who by the new Order which you instituted, became the support of the Church in the most stormy times: obtain for us, we pray, the grace to be at all times zealous for the glory of the Church, that, regarding her interests as our own, we may never spare ourselves in defending her, but endeavor to make her glorious and triumphant throughout the whole world.
Glory be, etc.
-
O glorious St. Dominic, who received from the hands of the Blessed Virgin herself, and spread, at her command, through the whole world, the efficacious devotion of the Rosary, which, from the beginning, operated innumerable miracles: obtain, we pray, that we may be always most devout to Mary, especially in her Rosary, which she established to confound heresy, arouse faith, drive away scandals, promote virtue, merit the divine mercy, and to support and defend the holy Church.
Glory be, etc.
-
O glorious St. Dominic, who never felt the smallest sentiment of vanity, either at the increase of your Order or at the important victories you obtained over heretics, nor at all the miracles which God deigned to work by your means: obtain for us, we pray, the grace to tread faithfully in the way of humility, that we may at length share in the eternal reward to which you have attained.
Glory be, etc.
-
O glorious St. Dominic, whose characteristics were, besides humility and apostolic zeal, an eminent spirit of prayer and the constant recollection of thy soul in God, obtain for us the grace that we may love prayer, and walk constantly in the presence of God, so that we may attain to eternal union with Him in heaven.
Glory be, etc.
