Day 1
Pray
Traditional prayer
Faithful spouse of Jesus Christ and most humble servant of the Virgin Mary, Mother of Sorrows, glorious St Juliana; at the end of a life entirely spent in the exercise of heroic virtues, thou didst undergo one last trial, in that thou couldst not be united in holy Viaticum to thy Beloved by reason of bodily infirmity. But this trial was so acceptable to thy heavenly Spouse, Jesus, that He deigned Himself to reward it with an extraordinary miracle; for at thy request Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament was placed on thy virginal breast, and He instantly entered within, leaving outwardly impressed the image of Himself crucified, while with a sweet smile thou didst breathe forth thy soul in his holy embrace. O great Saint and my special patroness, obtain from God, I beseech thee, that like thee I may live a good life and die a holy death; and that being so prepared for the last passage, fortified with the holy Sacraments, and invigorated by divine grace, I may finish my days in holiness and be preserved from eternal death.
