The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary into Heaven
Canticles 6:10
Feast of the Assumption -- August 15
The Memorare
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,
That never was it known that anyone
Who fled to thy protection,
Implored thy help,
Or sought thine intercession,
Was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence,
I fly unto thee,
O Virgin of Virgins, my Mother.
To thee do I come,
Before thee do I kneel,
Sinful and sorrowful.
O Mother of the Word Incarnate,
Despise not my petitions,
But in thy clemency,
Hear and answer them. Amen.
