Prayer in honor of the Second Sorrow of Mary — The Flight into Egypt
Most sorrowful Mother, Your mother’s heart brimmed over with sorrow at the hate of Herod for your innocent Son.
To save Him from the king’s jealousy, you had to flee with Him to Egypt.
Your heart also suffered at seeing the suffering of your holy spouse, Saint Joseph, at the prospect of taking the divine babe and you, his delicate spouse, into the wilderness and the unknown.
Queen of Martyrs let me unite my heart to yours in this sorrow, and obtain for me the grace to avoid those who wish me evil, above all evil to my soul. Let me avoid temptations and never leave the difficult but royal road to heaven.
Hail Mary….Prayer to our Sorrowful Mother for a particular grace...Memorare....
