He descended into hell; the third day He arose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven, sits at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen. HAIL, HOLY QUEEN Hail, holy Queen, Mother of mercy; hail our life, ouor sweetness and our hope. To you do we cry, poor banished children of Eve.

And after this our exile show unto us the blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary. V. Pray for us, O holy Mother of God; R. That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
