LEONINE PRAYERS
The following are the Prayers after Low Mass (Extraordinary Form) which were prescribed by Pope Leo XIII who composed
the Prayer to Saint Michael the Archangel, and were reinforced by Pope Pius XI and Pope Pius XII to pray for the conversion of
Russia. These prayers are still in effect until after Vatican II.

The Hail Mary (said three times)

H ail Mary,
Full of grace,
the Lord is with you!
Blessed are you among women,
and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God,

pray for us sinners,
now, and at the hour of our death,
Amen.

The Hail Holy Queen (Sung in Latin)

Salve Regina, Mater
misericordiae, vita, dulcedo, et
spes nostra, salve. Ad te
clamamus, exsules filii Evae.
 Ad te suspiramus gementes et
fientes in hac lacrymarum
valle. Eia ergo, Advocata
nostra, illos tuos misericordes
oculos ad nos converte. Et
Jesum (bow profoundly),
benedictum fructum ventris
tui, nobis, post hoc exilium,
ostende. O clemens, o pia, o
dulcis Virgo Maria!
The leader says:

P
ray for us,
O Holy Mother of God!

The people reply:

That we may be made worthy of the
promises of Christ.

The leader says:

Let us pray:

O God, our refuge and our strength,

look down with mercy upon the
people who cry to Thee; and by
the intercession of the glorious
and immaculate Virgin Mary,
Mother of God, of Saint Joseph
her spouse, of the blessed
Apostles Peter and Paul, and of
all the saints, in Thy mercy and
goodness hear our prayers for the
conversion of sinners, and for the
liberty and exaltation of the Holy
Mother the Church. Through the
same Christ Our Lord.
Amen.
 The Prayer to Saint Michael the Archangel

Saint Michael the Archangel,

defend us in battle; be our protection
against the wickedness and snares of
the devil. May God rebuke him, we
humbly pray: and do thou, O Prince of
the heavenly host, by the power of
God, thrust into hell satan and all the
evil spirits who prowl about the world
seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen.
Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, Have mercy on us.
