Written by the hand of Theophilia


O Jesu vivens in Maria
Veni et vive in famulis tuis,
In spiritu sanctitatis tuae,
In plenitudine virtutis tuae,
In perfectione viarum tuarum,
In veritate virtutum tuarum,
In communione Mysteriorum tuorum;
Dominare omni adversae potestati,
In Spiritu tuo ad gloriam Patris.


Fr Jean Jacques Olier, S.S. 
(1608-1657)



O Jesus, who dost live in Mary, 
come and live in Thy servants, 
in the spirit of Thine own holiness, 
in the fulness of Thy power, 
in the reality of Thy virtues, 
in the perfection of Thy ways, 
in the communion of Thy mysteries 
have Thou dominion over every adverse power, 
in Thine own Spirit, to the glory of Thy Father. 
 Amen.
