Union with the traitor and foe of God
Is hard to set right and remedy,
As in all times, places and affairs
The hellish foes set their snares.
Disgrace opens the gate to Diabolus,
Ruler of hell and conniver of mortals,
Dragging them into swirl of crime,
Breeding degrading habits and demerits,
Slaying honor by enticing slander,
Stealing innocence by scandal,
Infernal foe, infecting the zone of virtue.
Fend off the foe with prayer fiery
Devotion to the One who will crush his head
As the one who prays in the state of grace
Horrifies the rebel angel;
One who prays in the state
Of sanctifying grace
Is victor unfailing.
Parry the fiends with pleas to Deus,
Leader of angels and the Fairest Queen,
Whom the infernal dragons fear,
Call on Our Lady - 'The Door of Graces, '
The Chastest Heart - unshaken Assister,
Victor, Protectress and Mistress...
