Approval

FROM THE THIRD ITALIAN EDITION AUTHORIZED AND APPROVED BY THE SACRED CONGREGATION OF HOLY INDULGENCES.

Imprimatur: ✠ JACOBUS, CARD. GIBBONS, ARCHIEP. BALTIMORENSIS. BALTIMORE, July 20, 1887.

Imprimatur: ✠ PATRICK JOHN, ARCHBISHOP OF PHILADELPHIA. PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 8, 1900.

Moreover, Our Holy Father, Leo XIII., by virtue of his apostolic authority, has approved this Collection issued from the

press of the Sacred Congregation of the Propaganda, and, therefore, it must be regarded by all as the correct and authorized collection of indulgences hitherto granted for all the faithful and for such as are in communities specially designated. Wherefore, if by chance any doubt should arise either as to sense of the grant or the conditions requisite for gaining the indulgences, it must be determined solely by this Raccolta which His Holiness has directed to be considered the complete guide. On this account he has ordered the present decree to be prepared and prefixed to the present edition. Given at Rome, at the office of the Secretary of the Sacred Congregation of Indulgences and Holy Relics, on the 23d day of July, 1898. FR. H. M. CARD. GOTTI, Prefect. L. ✠ S. † A. SABATUCCI, Archiep. Antinoen. Secretary.

The Sacred Congregation of Indulgences and Holy Relics has approved of, as authentic, and permitted to be printed and published, this English translation of the Italian Raccolta, a book containing various prayers and pious exercises, to which the Roman Pontiffs have attached indulgences. This approbation was given after the work had been duly examined by two professors of theology of Woodstock College, who testified that they found this translation to be entirely faithful and in full accord with the Italian original, published in the year 1886 by the Sacred Congregation for the Propagation of the Faith.

Given at Rome, at the Office of the Secretary of this same Sacred Congregation, April 28, 1887. FR. THOMAS MARIA CARD. ZIGLIARA, Prefect. [L. ✠ S.] ALEXANDER, BISHOP OENSIS, Secretary.

DECRETUM ANNI 1886.

Indulgence His Holiness, Pius IX., by a rescript of the S. Congr. of the Propaganda, Dec. 30, 1868, granted to all the faithful who, with at least contrite heart and devotion, shall say this prayer, together with the Hail Mary, three times. AN INDULGENCE OF THREE HUNDRED DAYS, once a day.

Prayer for the Conversion of Heretics and Schismatics. THE NEW RACCOLTA, OR, COLLECTION OF PRAYERS AND GOOD WORKS. TO WHICH THE SOVEREIGN PONTIFFS HAVE ATTACHED HOLY INDULGENCES.

O Mary, mother of mercy and refuge of sinners! we beseech thee to look with pitying eyes on heretical and schismatical nations. Do thou, who art the seat of wisdom, illumine their minds, wretchedly involved in the darkness of ignorance and sin, that they may know the Holy Catholic, Apostolic, Roman Church to be the only true Church of Jesus Christ, out of which no sanctity or salvation can be found. Finally, complete their conversion by obtaining for them the grace to believe every truth of our holy faith, and to submit to the Sovereign Roman Pontiff, the vicar of Jesus Christ on earth, that thus, being soon united to us by the bonds of divine charity, they may make with us but one fold under one and the same pastor, and that we may thus, O glorious Virgin! all sing exultingly forever: “Rejoice, O Virgin Mary! thou alone hast destroyed all heresies in the whole world.” Amen.

Hail Mary, three times.

His Holiness, Pius IX., by a rescript of the S. Congr. of the Propaganda, Dec. 30, 1868, granted to all the faithful who, with at least contrite heart and devotion, shall say this prayer, together with the Hail Mary, three times.

AN INDULGENCE OF THREE HUNDRED DAYS, once a day.
