3. the rosary shall be a powerful ARMOUR against hell, it will destroy vice, decrease sin, and defeat heresies.
4. it will cause VIRTUE and good works to flourish; it will obtain for souls the abundant MERCY of god; it will withdraw the hearts of men from the love of the world and its vanities, and will lift them to the desire of eternal things. oh, that soulswould sanctify themselves by this means.
5. the soul which recommends itself to me by the recitation of the rosary, shall NOT PERISH.
6. whoever shall recite the rosary devoutly, applying himself to the considertation of its sacred mysteris shall never be conquered by MISFORTUNE. god will not chastise him in his justice, he shall no perish by an unprovided death; if he be just he shall remain in the gace of god, and become worhty of eternal life.
7. whoever shall have a true devotion for the rosary shall not die without the SACRAMENTS of the church.
