Station XIV — Jesus Is Laid in the Tomb

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

R). Quia per sanctam crucem tuam redemisti mundum.

Consider how the disciples carried the dead body of Jesus to be buried, still accompanied by his holy Mother, who arranged him in the tomb with her own hands. Then they closed the tomb, and all departed. — O my buried Jesus, I kiss this stone that enclosed you. But from there you rose after three days; I beg you, by your Resurrection, to raise me up gloriously on the last day with you, to be forever united with you in heaven, praising and loving you for all eternity. I love you, and 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.

After this, one returns to the main altar and there recites five Our Fathers, Hail Marys, and Glory Bes in honor of the Passion of Jesus Christ, to receive the other indulgences that are granted to those who recite them.
