Jacopo de' Barbari, The Guardian Angel, about 1509. Art Institute of Chicago.
MY Lord, my God, and my Father, I adore thee, in union with all creatures in heaven and on earth, acknowledging thee for my God and sovereign Lord; and as I began this day by offering myself to thee, I desire to finish it, by consecrating anew to thy divine majesty my body, my soul, my life, and all that I am: keep me this night under thy particular protection, and grant me the grace, that whilst my eyes are closed by sleep, my heart may be for ever awake to thy divine love, and that, after this transitory life, I may see and enjoy thee for ever in a happy eternity. Amen.
O happy Mary! chosen to be
The Mother of grace and clemency;
Protect us now; and at the hour of death,
O bear to heaven our parting breath. Amen.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
