- O God, who through the Resurrection of thy son, Our Lord Jesus Christ hast vouchsafed to give joy to the whole world, grant as we beseech thee that through the intercession of the Virgin Mary his mother we may obtain the joy of eternal life, through Christ Our Lord. Amen.O man forgive thy mortal foe.
Nor ever strike him blow for blow.
For all the souls on earth that live.
To be forgiven must forgive.
Forgive him seventy times and seven.
For all the blessed souls in heaven.
Are both forgivers and forgiven.
