Albrecht Dürer, The Agony in the Garden, 1508. Art Institute of Chicago.
O LORD Jesus Christ! who, to redeem the world from the slavery of hell, wouldst be born amongst us passible and mortal, didst suffer thyself to be circumcised, to be reproved and persecuted by the Jews, to be betrayed by Judas, thy disciple, with a sacrilegious kiss, and, as a meek and innocent Lamb, to be bound with cords, and inhumanly dragged to the tribunals of Annas, Caiphas, Pilate, and Herod: didst submit to be accused by false witnesses, torn with scourges, crowned with thorns, struck on the face, defiled with spittle, blindfolded through derision, insulted in a thousand ways, outraged, saturated with reproaches and ignominy; and, finally, being stripped of thy garments, nailed to and elevated on a cross between two thieves, presented with gall and vinegar to drink, and pierced with the lance, wouldst consummate the great work of our redemption. Oh, my most merciful Redeemer! by these so many and so atrocious pains, suffered for love of me, which I, though unworthy, commemorate, and by thy holy cross and bitter death, preserve me from the pains of hell, and vouchsafe to bring me to Paradise, where thou hast conducted the penitent thief, crucified with thee, my Jesus: who, with the Father and the Holy Ghost, livest and reignest, God, world without end. Amen
Then say: Our Father, Hail Mary, and Glory be to the Father, five times.
