℣. O Lord, hear my prayer.
℟. And let my cry come unto thee.
Let us pray.
O Lord our God, Who, through thine Only-begotten Son, didst cause thy blessed hand-maid Bridget to see certain things which are naturally known not on earth but in heaven, grant unto us thy servants at her motherly prayers, to be one day blessed for ever in the vision of thine eternal glory.
Through the same Jesus Christ, thy Son, Our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end.
℟. Amen.
