Part the Third The Five Glorious Mysteries

Assigned for Wednesdays and Saturdays throughout the Year, and Sundays from Easter until Advent.

I.—The Resurrection of Christ from the Dead.

Let us contemplate in this mystery, how our Lord Jesus Christ, triumphing gloriously over death, rose again the third day, immortal and impassable.

Our Father, &c. Hail Mary, &c. Glory, &c, as before.

Amen.

II.—The Ascension of Christ into Heaven.

Our Father, &c.
