Let not the participation of thy body, O Lord Jesus Christ, which I, though unworthy, presume to receive, turn to my judgment and condemnation; but thro' thy mercy, may it be a safeguard and remedy, both to soul and body; who with God the Father, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, livest and reignest God for ever and ever.

Taking the Host in his Hands, he says, Panem cœlestem ac- I will take the bread of

Ablution, he says,

Grant, Lord, that what we have taken with our

mouth, we may receive with a pure mind, that

Then he returns to the Book, and reads the CoMMUNION, which may be seen in its proper place.
