We beseech Thee, O Lord, to grant unto us Thy servants the gift of Thy heavenly grace: that as the Child-bearing of the Blessed Virgin was unto us the beginning of salvation, so the devout observance of her Visitation may avail for the increasing of our peace; through Jesus Christ Thy Son, our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with Thee and the Holy Ghost, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
