℣. O Lord, hear my prayer.
℟. And let my cry come unto thee.
Let us pray.
O Lord, who hast said: Unless you become as little children you shall not enter the kingdom of heaven, grant us, we pray, so to follow, in humility and simplicity of heart, the footsteps of the virgin blessed Theresa, that we may attain to an everlasting reward.
Who livest and reignest with God the Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, world without end.
℟. Amen.
