Ask the Blessed Virgin to help you practice Christian virtues, especially the holy virtue of Purity

 

Pope Leo XII. granted, in perpetuity, to all the faithful who should recite the three following prayers, together with three " Hail Marys," to ask the Blessed Virgin's assistance in the practice of Christian virtues, and especially the holy virtue of purity : 1. An indulgence of 100 days each time they are said. 2. A plenary indulgence, once a month, on reciting them every day, with the usual conditions. These indulgences are applicable to the souls in purgatory.
