A Prayer for this Day.

LOrd God of the Archangels, whom thou dost intrust in the most weighty Concerns of thy Glory, and the Benefit of Men; I offer up to thee the Merits of these most diligent Spirits, and those of thy great Servant St. Francis Xaverius, whom thou ma∣dest the Minister of thy Glory, and to whom thou recommendedst the Spi∣ritual Welfare of innumerable Souls. I beseech thee grant, that I may per∣form those Duties, which thy most Ho∣ly and Divine Will has imposed upon me, and also that I may obtain that particular Grace, which I beg of thee in this Novena, to thy greater Honour and Glory. Amen.
