O Mary, where thy Son has gone you have followed, for he could bear being parted from thee. In thy Most Holy Womb heaven itself was present, in the intimacy of thy very person reigned the King of Kings. That which was given cannot be taken from Him, that which God has taken cannot be lost. From all eternity He was yours and you were His, and He has taken you to himself that I might have hope and that I might see with the eyes of my soul the Royal Road to Christ my Lord, have mercy on us. Christ have mercy on us.
Lord, have mercy on us. Christ, hear us. Christ graciously hear us.
