VI. JESUS’ FACE IS WIPED BY VERONICA
V. We adore you, O Christ, and we bless you,
R. Because by your holy Cross you have
redeemed the world.
The beloved face of Jesus, that smiled upon children
and was transfigured with glory on Mount Tabor, is now,
as it were, concealed by suffering. But this suffering is
our purification; the sweat and the blood, which disfigure
and tarnish his features, serve to cleanse us.
Our Father... Hail Mary...
V. Have mercy on us, O Lord
R. Have mercy on us
