pray for us who have recourse to thee.
Amen.”

“Hail, O illustrious St. Philomena,
who shed so courageously your blood for Christ!
I bless the Lord for all the graces
He has bestowed upon thee during thy life,

for the honour and power with which
He has crowned thee,
and I beg thee to obtain for me from God
the graces I ask through thy intercession.”
