Text and translations

Latin text 1. O Domine Jesu Christe, adoro te in cruce pendentem et coronam spineam in capite portantem: deprecor te ut ipsa crux liberet me ab angelo poenitente[percutienti]. Variant 1 tua mors sit vita mea. 2. O Domine Jesu Christe, adoro te in cruce vulneratum, fele et aceto, potatum: deprecor te, ut tua vulnera sint remedium animae meae. 3. O Domine Jesu Christe, adoro te in sepulcro positum, myrrha et aromatibus conditum: deprecor te, ut tua mors sit vita mea. 4. O Domine Jesu Christe, pastor bone, justos conserva, peccatores justifica, omnibus fidelibus miserere, et propitius esto mihi peccatori. 5. O Domine Jesu Christe, propter illam amaritudinem, quam pro me sustinuisti in cruce, maxime in illa hora, quando sanctissima anima tua egressa est de corpore tuo, miserere animae meae in egressu suo. Amen.
