The Enchiridion Of Indulgences - St. Patrick's Basilica

A clean heart create for me, O God,
and a steadfast spirit renew within me.
Cast me not out from your presence,
and your holy spirit take not from me.
Give me back the joy of your salvation,
and a willing spirit sustain in me.
I will teach transgressors your ways,
and sinners shall return to you.
Free me from blood guilt, O Lord, my saving God;
then my tongue shall revel in your justice.
O Lord, open my lips,
and my mouth shall proclaim your praise.
For you are not pleased with sacrifices;
should I offer a holocaust, you would not accept it.
My sacrifice, O God, is a contrite spirit;
a heart contrite and humbled, O God, you will not spurn.
The Enchiridion Of Indulgences
Be bountiful, O Lord, to Sion in your kindness
by rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem;
Then shall you be pleased with due sacrifices,
burnt offerings and holocausts; then shall they offer up bullocks on your altar.
A partial indulgence is granted to the faithful, who with repentant heart recite the psalm Have
mercy on me (Ps 50).
34. Novena Devotions
(Novendiales preces)
A partial indulgence is granted to the faithful, who devoutly take part in the pious exercises of
a public novena before the feast of Christmas or Pentecost or the Immaculate Conception of
the Blessed Virgin Mary.
35. Use of Articles of Devotion
(Obiectorum pietatis usus)
The faithful, who devoutly use an article of devotion (crucifix or cross, rosary. scapular or
medal) properly blessed by any priest, 3 obtain a partial indulgence.
3 In order to bless an article or devotion properly the priest uses the prescribed fromula, if there is any; otherwise,
he makes a simple sign of the cross toward the article of devotion, laudably adding the words: "In the name of
the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spriti".
In practice, a formula is to be used in the public blessing of scapulars, while a sign of the cross suffices for other
cases.
