the peace prayer" which Pope Bene-
dict XIV. has directed shall be offered

"Dismayed by the horrors of war
which is bringing ruin to peoples and
nations, we turn, O Jesus, to thy most
loving heart as to our last hope. 0
God of mercy, with tears we invoke
thee to end this fearful scourge: 0
King of Peace, we humbly implore
the peace for which we long. From
thy sacred heart thou didst shed
forth over the world divine charity,
so that discord might end and love
alone might reign among men. Dur
ing thy life on earth thy heart beat
with tender compassion for the sor-
rows of men: in this hour. made ter
rible with burning hate, with blood
shed and with slaughter, once more
may thy divine heart be moved to
pity. Pity the countless mothers in
anguish for the fate of their sons;
pity the numberless families now be-
reaved Of their fathers; pity Europe,
over which broods such havoc and
disaster. Do thou inspire rulers and
, peoples with counsels of meekness,
, do thou heal the discords that tear
=; the nations asunder: thou who didst
shed thy precious blood that they
might live as brothers, bring men to-
gether once more before the cry Of
the Apostle Peter: Save us, Lord,
we perish, thou didst answer with
words of mercy, and dist still the
raging waves, so now deign to hear
our trustful prayer, and give back to
the world peace and tranquility.
And do thou, 0 most holy virgin,
as in other times of sore distress.
! be now our help. our protection and
| our safeguard. Amen"
The prayer wss composed by the
pope. 1t is accompanied by decree
from Cardinal Gasparr, secretary Of
state for the vatican, prescribing in
detail the form of services for Pas
| sion Sunday.
