A Prayer Unto The Wounds Of Christ 1599 (Anon.)

GIOVANNI DI PAOLO 
The Crucifixion 
c. 1447

I beseech thee O Lord Jesu by those thy health bringing wounds, which thou suffered upon the cross for our salvation, out of the which flowed that precious blood, wherewith we are redeemed: wound this my sinful soul, for which thou also vouchsafed to die, wound it with the fire and most forcible weapon of thy abundant charity, Pierce my hart with the dart of thy love that my soul may say to thee I am wounded with thy charity: in such sort that from the same wound of thy love most abundant tears may flow from me day and night. Strike O Lord, strike I beseech thee this my most hard hart, with the holy and forcible prick of thy love, and pierce it more deeply, into the inner parts with thy mighty force, who livest and reignest world without end. Amen.
