&lt;br /&gt;
O Lord Jesus Christ Who, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
before ascending into heaven &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
did promise to send the Holy Spirit &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
to finish Your work in the souls of Your Apostles and Disciples, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
deign to grant the same Holy Spirit to me &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
that He may perfect in my soul, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
the work of Your grace and Your love. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Grant me the Spirit of Wisdom &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
that I may despise the perishable things of this world &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
and aspire only after the things that are eternal, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
the Spirit of Understanding &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
to enlighten my mind with the light of Your Divine truth, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
the Spirit of Counsel &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
that I may ever choose the surest way of pleasing God and gaining heaven, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
the Spirit of Fortitude &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
that I may bear my cross with You &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
and that I may overcome with courage all the obstacles &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
that oppose my salvation, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
the Spirit of Knowledge &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
that I may know God and know myself &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
and grow perfect in the science of the Saints, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
the Spirit of Piety &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
that I may find the service of God sweet and amiable, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
and the Spirit of Fear &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
that I may be filled with a loving reverence towards God &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
and may dread in any way to displease Him. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mark me, dear Lord with the sign of Your true disciples, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
and animate me in all things with Your Spirit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Amen.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
