The Meditation
Our Saviour, knowing his passion to be now at hand, is so affected with the thoughts of it, and so oppressed with the load of our sins, that he prays to his almighty Father, that the bitter cup might pass away from him.
O Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews, have mercy on us. [Ten times.] Glory, &c.
III.—Our Saviour is apprehended.
