Memorare

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,
that never was it known
that anyone who fled to your
   protection,
implored your help or sought your
   intercession,
was left unaided.
Inspired with confidence,
I fly to you, O Virgin of Virgins, my
   Mother;
to you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and
   sorrowful. 
O Mother of the Word Incarnate,
despise not my petitions,
but in your mercy hear and answer
   me.     Amen!
