The Secret of the Rosary - Fiftieth Rose

Fiftieth Rose - Various Methods

SO AS TO MAKE the recitation of the Holy Rosary easier for
you, here are several methods which will help you to say it
in a good and holy way, together with meditation on the
Joyful, Sorrowful and Glorious Mysteries of Jesus and Mary.
Choose whichever method pleases you and helps you the
most: you can make one up yourself, if you like, as several
holy people have done before now.
METHODS OF SAYING THE MOST HOLY ROSARY SO AS
TO DRAW UPON OUR SOULS THE GRACE OF THE
MYSTERIES OF THE LIFE, PASSION AND GLORY OF

JESUS AND MARY
First Method[1]

FIRST, say the "Come, Holy Ghost" . . . and then make your
OFFERING OF THE ROSARY:
I unite myself with all the Saints in Heaven, and with all the
just on earth; I unite myself with Thee, my Jesus, in order to
praise Thy Holy Mother worthily and to praise Thee in her
and by her. I renounce all the distractions that may come to
me while I am saying this Rosary.
Oh, Blessed Virgin Mary, we offer thee this Creed in order to
honor the faith that thou didst have upon earth and to ask
thee to have us share in the same faith.
Oh Lord; we offer Thee this Our Father so as to adore Thee
in Thy oneness and to recognize Thee as the first cause and
the last end of all things.
Most Holy Trinity, we offer Thee these three Hail Marys so
as to thank Thee for all the graces which Thou hast given to
Mary and those which Thou hast given us through her
intercession.
Notes:
1. This method varies slightly from that which is now well
known. Saint Louis modified it during his lifetime, but it is
given here because it is to be found in the original
manuscript of this book.
