O gloriosa regina mundi o mun\di domina suscipe deprecacionem\ servi tui impetra michi spacium penitencie\ et veram penitenciam agere de peccatis meis in\ hoc seculo. Impetra michi piissima domina\ perseveranciam in bonis operibus usque in finem\ Impetra michi rectum sensum, rectamque memo\riam a domino nostro Ihesu Christo filio tuo in die obi\tus mei et in hora exitus mei tu piissima\ domina succurre michi et libera de potestate te\nebrarum et de penis inferni et a morte perpe\tua et perduc me ad gaudia sempiterna.\
