Faithful St. Raymund, dispenser of the Mystery of reconciliation!
It was from the Heart of an Incarnate God,
that you drew the sweet charity,
which made you the friend of the sinner.
You loved your fellow men,
and labored to supply all their wants,
whether of soul or body.
Enlightened by the rays of the Sun of Justice,
you have taught us how to discern between good and evil,
by giving us those rules whereby our wounds are judged and healed.
Rome was the admirer of your knowledge of her laws,
and it is one of her glories
that she received from your hand the Sacred Code
whereby she governs the Churches of the world.
