The Memorare

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,that never was it knownthat anyone who fled to thy protection,implored thy help,or sought thine intercessionwas left unaided.Inspired by this confidence,I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother.To thee do I come,before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful.O Mother of the Word Incarnate,despise not my petitions,but in thy mercy hear and answer me.Amen.

In Latin

Memorare, o piissima Virgo Maria,non esse auditum a saeculo,quemquam ad tua currentem praesidia,tua implorantem auxilia,tua petentem suffragia,esse derelictum.Ego tali animatus confidentia,ad te, Virgo Virginum, Mater, curro,ad te venio,coram te gemens peccator assisto.Noli, Mater Verbi, verba mea despicere;sed audi propitia et exaudi.Amen.
