| 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. |

The Bedford Master, Pentecost, book of hours, about 1420. Cleveland Museum of Art.
O Lord, who in the mystery of the glorious Transfiguration of thy divine Son didst vouchsafe to show forth in all its splendor the truth of the holy Catholic Faith, and to give miraculous confirmation, by thy voice coming forth from the cloud, of our perfect adoption as thy sons, we humbly beseech thee to grant us that we may be made co-heirs of this same King of Glory and partakers of thy eternal happiness. Amen.
His Holiness, Leo XIII., by a rescript of the S. Congr. of Indulgences, Dec: 14, 1889, granted to the faithful who recite this prayer
