Hail and blessed be the hour and moment in which the Son of God was born
of the most pure Virgin Mary, at midnight, in Bethlehem, in piercing
cold. In that hour, vouchsafe, O my God! to hear my prayer and grant my
desires, through the merits of Our Saviour Jesus Christ, and of His
Blessed Mother. Amen.
