Dedicatory prayer

A Dedicatory Prayer of the Author

O sweet Jesus, my Lord, my Saviour, and my God behold me here prostrate before thy Majesty, devoting and consecrating this work to thy glory; give life to its words by thy blessing, that those souls for whom I have composed it may receive from it the sacred inspirations which I desire for them. And particularly grant them that of imploring for me thy infinite mercy: to the end that, while I point out to others the way of devotion in this world, I may not myself be eternally rejected and confounded in the other; but that with them I may forever sing, as a canticle of triumph, the words which with my whole heart I pronounce, in testimony of my fidelity amidst the hazards of this mortal life: Live, Jesus! live, Jesus! yea, Lord Jesus! live and reign in our hearts forever and ever. Amen.
