Mercy of our God, embrace us and deliver us from every plague.

Wounds of my Jesus, mouths of love and mercy, speak for us, in pity, to the eternal Father, hide us within yourselves, and deliver us.

Eternal Father, Jesus is ours; ours His blood, ours His infinite merits; to Thee we offer ourselves wholly: then, if Thou dost love him, and dost hold dear so great an offering, Thou oughtest to deliver us; and for this we hope with fullest confidence.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost . . .

Eternal Father, Thou desirest not the death of a sinner, but rather that he be converted and live: in Thy mercy grant that we may live and be ever Thine.

Save us, Christ our Saviour, by the virtue of Thy holy cross; Thou who didst save Peter in the sea, have mercy on us.

Mary, mother of mercy, pray for us, and we shall be delivered.

Mary, our advocate, speak for us, and we shall be saved.

The Lord justly scourgeth us for our sins; but do thou, O Mary! plead for us, for thou art our tender mother.

Mary, in thy Jesus and in thee, have we put our hope: O let us never be confounded!

I found this thread today when I opened the forum thinking about asking for prayer for a certain level of what I suppose I could call spiritual dry-ness.  I'm having a considerable trouble posting both in my Meditation thread and also in the threads on Saints feasts, Lectio Divina, and the Cloud of Unknowing.  I was surprised I could not recall this post , but my primary thought was how my family was spared most of the calamity of covid, even though we both got it as did several other members of the family and other close friends. 
It seems a remarkable coincidence (perhaps not quite amazing) that just a few minutes ago I was reading on another site that the English poet/philosopher? had professed his faith/hope? that in God's Grand Plan the Universe is perfect and our fate is predetermined.
My best prayer, I think, is to accept God's will and hope in His Mercy.  I continue to struggle to understand the goal of mystic contemplation and withdrawal from the world, and ask for your prayers and those of My Guardian Angel, St William, and our Holy Mother Mary.
