Joseph, a just man, became afraid, when he considered this situation, knowing that he did not nourish the little blossoming branch.

Saint Mary, pray for us!
Thus, you merciful and kind and worthy of praise from all, make us known to your Son through your pious intercessions.
Holy Mother of God, pray for us!
So that we thus be absolved from the carnal shackle with which we are burdened, and, once freed be transported to the palaces of heaven.
Amen.
