In order to increase the devotion of the faithful to Jesus and Mary by invoking their most holy names, together with the name of St. Joseph, for the purpose of recommending to them the last moments of this life, on which our eternity depends, Pius VII., by a decree of the S. Congr. of Indulgences, dated April 28, 1807, granted an indulgence of 300 days to any one, as often as he says devoutly, and with a contrite heart, the three following ejaculations:
Jesus, Joseph, Mary, I offer you my heart and my soul.
Jesus, Joseph, Mary, assist me in my last agony.
Jesus, Joseph, Mary, may I breathe forth my soul with you in peace.
If but one of the above is recited, then the same Pope granted to the reciter 100 days’ Indulgence.
