O Holy St. Anthony, gentlest of
Saints, your love for God and Charity for His
creatures, made you worthy, when of earth, to possess
miraculous powers.
Miracles waited on your word,
which you were ever ready to speak for those in
trouble of anxiety. Encouraged by this thought, I
implore of you to obtain for me (request).
The answer to my prayer may
require a miracle, even so, you are the Saint of
Miracles.
O gentle and loving St.
Anthony, whose heart was ever full of human sympathy,
whisper my petition into the ears of the Sweet Infant
Jesus, who loved to be folded in your arms; and the
gratitude of my heart will ever be yours. Amen.
