To be said every day between the 21st and 30th of January
In honour of the glorious memory of
LOUIS XVI of France and CHARLES I of England And for the good estate and virtue of all Christian Princes
Ant. IN the sight of the unwise he seemed to die and his departure was taken for misery; but he is in peace.
Let us pray
BLESSED Lord, in whose sight the death of thy saints is precious; We magnifie thy name for that abundant grace bestowed upon our late Martyred Soveraigns; by which they were enabled so chearfully to follow the steps of their blessed Master and Saviour, in a constant meek suffering of all barbarous indignities, and at last resisting unto bloud; and even then, according to the same pattern, praying for their murderers. Let their memory, O Lord, be ever blessed among us, that we may follow the example of their patience, and charity. And grant, that our Lands may be freed from the vengeance of their bloud, and thy mercy glorified in the forgiveness of our sins: and all
for Jesus Christ his sake. Amen.
