Let us pray:
O God, who from the very birth of thy Church in this land
didst make us the Dowry of Mary and loyal subjects of the
Prince of thine Apostles; grant us by the merits and
intercession of these our Saints and Martyrs that we may
continue steadfast in the Catholic Faith, nor ever fail to
cherish that most blessed Virgin as our Mother, and
maintain our allegiance to the See of Peter.

O God, who didst raise up blessed Martyrs from every rank
among us, to fight manfully for the true faith and the
primacy of the Holy See; grant us through their merits and
prayers that our whole people may agree in the profession of
the same faith, and ever enjoy that unity for which thy Son
prayed, who lives and reigns for ever and ever.

Amen.
