Soul of Christ, sanctify me.
Body of Christ, save me.
Blood of Christ, inebriate me.
Water from the side of Christ, wash me.
Passion of Christ, strengthen me.
O good Jesus, hear me.
Within thy wounds hide me.
Suffer me not to be separated from thee.
From the malicious enemy defend me.
In the hour of my death call me.
for ever and ever.
First General Grant
A partial indulgence is granted to the faithful who, in the performance of their duties
and in bearing the trials of life, raise their mind with humble confidence to God, adding
even if only mentally -- some pious invocation.
This first grant is intended to serve as an incentive to the faithful to put into practice the
commandment of Christ that "they must always pray and not lose heart"
4
and at the same
time as a reminder so to perform their respective duties as to preserve and strengthen their
union with Christ.

In this temporal service, theywill manifest to all men the love with which God loved the world.
Second General Grant
A partial indulgence is granted to the faithful, who in a spirit of faith and mercy give of
themselves or of their goods to serve their brothers in need.
This second grant is intended to serve as an incentive to the faithful to perform more frequent
acts of charity and mercy, thus following the example and obeying the command of Christ
Jesus.
6
However, not all works of charity are thus indulgenced, but only those which "serve their
brothers in need," in need, for example, of food or clothing for the body or of instruction or
comfort for the soul.
Mt 25, 35-36. 40:
For I was hungry and you gave me to eat; I was thirsty and you gave me to
drink; I was a stranger and you took me in; naked and you covered me; sick and you visited
me; I was in prison and you came to me.... Amen I say to you, as long as you did it for one of
these, the least of my brethren, you did it for me.

Rom 12, 8. 10-11. 13:
He who gives, in simplicity; . . . he who shows mercy, with
cheerfulness.... Love one another with fraternal charity, anticipating one another with honor.
Be not slothful in zeal; be fervent in spirit, serving the Lord.... Share the needs of the saints,
practicing hospitality.

And if I distribute all my goods to feed the poor, . . . yet do not have charity, it
profits me nothing.
