About this chaplet
This complete devotional guide follows the chaplet’s nine salutations, each followed by one Our Father and three Hail Marys, then four Our Fathers. The salutations and concluding prayer are original English adaptations for this companion, not a verbatim historical edition.
The guided companion follows the St. Vincent novena’s six sections. Scripture, reflection, intentions and thanksgiving are companion additions; the devotional prayer text is preserved. Scripture readings use the public-domain Douay-Rheims Bible. Added community prayers and reflections are original devotional texts.
