A35529	Heaven opened, and the pains of purgatory avoided by the very great indulgences of the two most illustrious archconfraternities : the one of our Blessed Lady, called the Rosary, and the other of the seraphical father, St. Francis, called, The cord of the Passion.

all which entring into common and making one only depositum redound to each particular Members spiritual profit and advantage so that when any one of us offers up his Prayers to the Throne of Mercy he prayes as it were by as many mouths as there are Brethren and Sisters in the whole Confraternity now what an incredible force must this needs add to our Petitions How can a just demand presented by so many pious Souls sent up to Heaven by so many humble hearts pronounced by so many devout Tongues suffer a repulse Besides what an inestimable profit is it to have a share of Merits in so many Divine Sacrifices of the Masse celebrated through the whole world yearly monthly weekly daily to Gods Glory to his Mothers Honour to his Saints praises to the solace of the living to the succor of the dead Another profit of great importance is a confidence a comfort and a kind of security in the article of death Death is commonly bitter for the cessation of all pleasures dangerous for the Devils temptations dreadful for the severe Judgment immediately ensuing but to the Members of this sacred Confraternity death is not so bitter because long before expected prevented provided for the Devils temptations are not to them so dangerous because the daily use of their Spiritual weapons renders the expert in these combats able to foil their adversaries and experienced to defend themselves The apprehension of Gods Judgments is not to them so dreadful because they continually think of them and accordingly order their life and actions discharge their consciences of sin practice works of piety and endeavour to acquire the Sacred Virgins favour in hope to have Her their Friend and Advocate which is surely the best way to die with safety and security So the Devotion to our Blessed Lady in this Confraternity is a probable sign of being predestinated to eternal felicity with the holy you shall be holy saith the Psalmist and with the elect elected but what better sign of holiness what surer token of Election can one have in this life then to be associated with so many good souls aspiring zealously and unanimously to piety to perfection to salvation Another Spiritual profit that all Christians ought to look after consists in the several and very great Indulgences following Of the Indulgences conferred upon the Confraternity of the Rosary WE shall mention none but such as are expresly avouched by approved and authentical Authors and directly drawn out of the Popes Bulls and Indults omitting the multitude of less Indulgences which remit certain days years and quarantines of enjoyned penances and set down the plenary Indulgences I.

Idem in Bulla Cupientes 24. Decemb. 1583. XI Of the Stations of Rome ALl the Indulgences of the Stations of Rome are granted to the Members of the Rosary by visiting upon these dayes five Altars or one only if there be no more and reciting before each Altar five Paters and five Aves or twenty-five before that one Altar Leo 10. Maii 22. 1518. which grant Clement the Seventh recites and comfirms in his brief Etsi temporalium 8. idus Maii 1534. and Paulus 3. Rationi congruit 3. Novemb. 1534. and Pius 5. Inter desiderabilia 28. Junii 1569. XII ANd these are the chief part of that vast Treasure of Indulgences and Priviledges granted to the Arch-Confraternity of the sacred Rosary The rest being of less consequence would we conceive be as tedious to be read as they are indeed needless to be known by them who shall duly consider that besides the particular indulgences which are determined to certain dayes times and places there are others which are general unlimited perpetual and which we shall briefly set before you as a close of this Catalogue of Indulgences I. Every day a Plenary THe first is that they who are of the Rosary in the state of Grace and having a general intention to pray for such ends as are required which are the three conditions absolutely necessary for the obtaining of any of these Indulgences may gain a plenary upon every day in the year and consequently every hour of their whole life by performing any one of these things following 1. Saying the Rosary 2. Celebrating the Mass of the Rosary 3. Causing it to be said 4. Hearing it 5. Visiting five Altars or one if there be no more and saying five Paters and Aves before each Alttar or 25. before the one The Consequence hereof is most clear 1. Because a plenary is annexed to the due performance of these acts of Piety toties quoties how oft soever they are done without any restriction 2. Because at Rome in the Church of St. John Lateran there may be gained a plenary if any one pleases six times every day and in each one of the seven Churches of the Stations all which and all other City Indulgences are granted to all the Brothers and Sisters of the Rosary performing the Devotions aforesaid wheresoever dispersed throughout the whole world by Leo the Tenth 22. Maii 1518. and by the succeeding chief Pastors II. Every day a Soul out of Purgatory THe second is that they may every day praying and being disposed as aforesaid obtain the deliverance of a soul out of Purgatory which directly follows from the former First since all the Indulgences granted to the living may be applyed to the dead Secondly since at Rome there is every day in one part or other of the City the delivery of a soul out of Purgatory The particular grants of all these before recited Indulgences may be seen at large in Peter Louvet Aiphonsus Fernandez Andreas Coppentanius and other Fathers of the Order of St. Dominick who faithfully collected and published them according to their Originals Misericordias Domini in aeternum cantabo Our grateful hearts O our Eternal King Shall ever of your boundless mercies sing How these Indulgences are to be gained by the Members of the Rosary FIrst these Indulgences are not indifferently obtained by all sorts of persons but by such only as have duly and diligently purified prepared and disposed their souls to receive them by precedent penance or have led their lives in such innocency since their last Confession as that they continue in the state of Grace or have made an act of contrition and detestation of their mortal sins with purpose of confessing them in fit time and avoiding them for the future Secondly that they must obey such other particular commands as the Bulls of Indulgences import that is they must punctually perform the enjoyned actions of Alms-deeds Fastings Prayers Processions Visitations of Altars and all other the works of Devotion and Piety there expressed Thirdly that they must offer up their devotions for these generally recommended ends and intentions in all the concessions of Indulgences 1. For the encrease of Gods honour and glory 2. For the exaltation of the Catholick Church 3. For the prosperity of the Sea Apostolick 4. For the peace of Christian Princes 5. For the re-union of Schismaticks 6. For the Conversion of Hereticks 7. For the Correction of Sinners 8. For the Consolation of the afflicted both living and departed The conditions of this Confraternity FIrst all Christians of whatsoever calling and condition may be received into this Sacred Confraternity without any obligation to pay any thing for their entrance or admittance Leo 10. Pastoris aeterni 1520. pridie nonas Octob. Secondly there is to be a particular book provided wherein the names and surnames of all such as are admitted must be Registred Thirdly whosoever is thus admitted in any one place is made partaker of the prayers and Merits of all them that are of this Confraternity throughout the whole Universe Fourthly not onely the living but also the faithful departed to wit the Souls in Purgatory may be received and enrolled in this Confraternity and made partakers of these spiritual benefits if any of the living Brethren and Sisters shall desire and procure it performing for their deceased friends such pious duties and devotions as the Rules demand Fifthly all the Brothers and Sisters are obliged to recite every week the entire Rosary which they may as themselves please either perform together or divide into three parts for their greater ease and conveniency Sixthly In case of any lawful impediment the Brothers and Sisters causing the Rosary to be recited for them by another satisfie their own obligation Seventhly If through forgetfulness multiplicity of employments or negligence and not out of contempt they omit this weekly recital of the Rosary it is no sin but only for

nos inducas in tentationem Sed libera nos a malo Oremus DOmine Jesu Christe qui pro salute humani generis quinque vulnera pati voluisti tribue qua sumus ut ob reverentiam illorum vulnerum tuoorum absolvi mereamur ab omnibus peccatis nostris da praesentem vitam bono fine terminari a tuae dulcissimae visionis contemplatione nunquam sepaparari Oremus DEus qui manus tuas pedes tuos totum corpus tuum pro nobis peccatoribus in ligno crucis posuisti coronam spineam a Judaeis in despectum tui sacratissimi nominis super caput tuum impositam sustinuisti quinque vulnera pro nobis peccatoribus in ligno crucis passus fuisti da nobis hodie quotidie usum poenitentiae abstinentiae patientiae humilitatis castitatis lumen sensum intellectum puram conscientiam usque in finem Per te Jesu Christe Salvator mundi Qui cum Patre Spiritu sancto vivis regnas Deus Per omnia saecula saeculorum Amen We have here added the Profession of our Faith which is often to be read to confirm our selves in the belief of the holy Church to exercise and increase our Faith and obtain the effect of our Prayers the impetration thereof being attributed to Faith A PROFESSION OF THE Catholick Faith Set out according to the Decrees of the holy Council of Trent IAB Do with a stead fast Faith Believe and Profess all and every Point contained in the Symbol of the Faith that the holy Roman Church doth use to wit I do believe in one God the Father Almighty Maker of Heaven and Earth of all things both visible and invisible And in one Lord Jesus Christ the only begotten Son of God and born of the Father before all Worlds God of God Light of Light true God of true God begotten and not made of the same substance with the Father by whom all things were made who for us men and for our salvation came down from Heaven and was Incarnate by the Holy Ghost of the Virgin Mary and was made man was crucisied also for us under Pontius Pilate suffered and was buried and rose again the third day according to the Scriptures and ascended up to Heaven sitteth at the right hand of the Father and he shall come again with Glory to judge the quick and the dead of whose Kingdom there shall be no end And in the Holy Ghost our Lord and giver of Life who proceedeth from the Father and the Son who with the Father and the Son together is adored and conglorified who spake by the Prophets And in one holy Catholick and Apostolick Church I profess one Baptism for the remission of sins And I expect the Resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come Amen I do steadfastly admit and embrace the Traditions of the Apostles and of the Church and all other Observations and Constitutions of the same Church I do also admit the holy Scriptures according to that sense which our holy Mother the Catholick Church hath held and doth hold to whom it appertaineth to judge of the true sense and interpretation of the holy Scriptures neither will I ever understand nor interpret the same otherwise then according to the uniform consent of the Fathers I do also profess that there be truly and properly seven Sacraments of the new Law instituted by Jesus Christ our Lord and necessary for the salvation of mankind although all be not necessary for every one to wit Baptism Confirmation Extream Vnction Order and Matrimony and these Sacraments do give Grace and that of them Baptism Confirmation and Order cannot be reiterated without Sacriledge I do also receive and admit all the received and approved Ceremonies of the Catholick Church in the solemn administration of all the aforesaid Sacraments I do receive and embrace all and every of the things which in the holy Council of Trent have been defined and declared touching Original sin and Justification I do profess also that in the Mass is offered up to God a true proper and propitiatory Sacrifice for the living and dead and that in the most holy Sacrament of the Altar there is truly really and substantially the body and blood together with the Soul and Divinity of our Lord Jesus Christ And that there is made a Conversion of the whole substance of the bread into the Body and of the whole substance of the wine into the Blood which Conversion the holy Church calls Transubstantiation I do also confess that under either form only is received Christ whole and entire and the true Sacrament I do constantly hold that there is Purgatory and that the Souls which be there detained are holpen by Prayers of the Faithful Also that the Saints who raign together with Christ are to be honored and called upon and that they offer up prayers to God for us and that their Reliques are to be reverenced and honoured I do most steadfastly affirm that the Images of Christ of the Mother of God always Virgin and of all Saints are to be had and retained and that due honor and reverence is to be given them I affirm that the authority of Indulgences was left by Christ in the Church and that the use of them is very behoofeful for Christian People I do acknowledge the holy Catholick and Apostolick Roman Church to be the Mother and Mistriss of all Churches And I do promise and swear true obedience to the Bishop of Rome who is the Successor of St. Peter Prince of the Apostles and Vicar of Jesus Christ And all other things also defined and declared by the holy Canons and Oecumenical Councils and chiefly by the holy Council of Trent I do undoubtedly receive and profess And also all contrary things and whatsoever Heresies condemned and accursed by the Church I likewise do condemn reject and accurse This true Catholick Faith without which no man can be saved now I willingly and truly hold the same A. B. do promise and swear to hold and confess most constantly by God his help entire and uncorrupted even to the last end of my life So God help me and the holy Gospels of God Amen Anglia chara Deo Felix Sancta fuisti Sis modo qualis eras sic pia vota petunt FINIS
