THE ROSARY FOR THE HOLY SOULS IN PURGATORY
It is a practice earnestly recommended to all persons who desire to assist the "Holy Souls." It is said on any ordinary beads.
On the Cross: De Profundis or Pater and Ave.
On the Large Beads: V. Eternal rest give to them, O Lord. And Let perpetual light shine upon them.
Act of Faith: My God, I believe in Thee, because Thou art Truth itself.
Act of Hope: My God, I hope in Thee, because Thou art infinitely good.
Act of Charity: My God, I love Thee with my whole heart and above all things, because Thou art infinitely perfect.
