    of the most Blessed Virgin Mary, Thy Mother, whose holy soul was pierced at the time of Thy
    Passion by a sword of grief. Grant us this favor, O Savior of the world, Who livest and reignest
    with the Father and the Holy Ghost for ever and ever. Amen.

    Chaplet of the Seven Sorrows of Mary

    !
    !
    The Blessed Virgin Mary grants seven graces to the souls who honour her daily by
    saying seven Hail Mary's and meditating on her tears and dolors (sorrows). The
    devotion was passed on by St. Bridget of Ireland (Kildare 451-525)
    !
    !
    HERE ARE THE SEVEN GRACES:
    !
    1 I will grant peace to their families.
    2 They will be enlightened about the divine mysteries.
    3 I will console them in their pains and I will accompany them in
    their work.
    4 I will give them as much as they ask for as long as it does not
    oppose the adorable will of my divine Son or the sanctification of
    their souls.
    5 I will defend them in their spiritual battles with the infernal
    enemy and I will protect them at every instant of their lives.
    6 I will visibly help them at the moment of their death, they will
    see the face of their Mother.
    7 I have obtained from my divine Son, that those who propagate
    this devotion to my tears and dolors, will be taken directly from
    this earthly life to eternal happiness since all their sins will be
    forgiven and my Son and I will be their eternal consolation and
    joy.
