Station X — Jesus Is Stripped of His Garments

V). Adoramus te, Christe, et benedicimus tibi.

R). Quia per sanctam crucem tuam redemisti mundum.

Consider how Jesus, being violently stripped by the executioners — because his inner garment had adhered to his flesh, torn by the scourges — when that garment was ripped away, his skin was torn away as well. Have compassion on your Lord, and say to him: — My innocent Jesus, by the merit of the pain you then felt, help me to strip myself of all attachment to the things of this earth, so that I may place all my love in you, who are so worthy of being loved. I love you with all my heart. I repent of having offended you. Do not permit me to offend you again. Grant that I may love you, and then do with me as you will.

Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be. Dear Jesus, etc.
