Prayers to the Most Holy Theotokos for every day of the week, by St. Nilus of Sora Tuesday:


O my Most Holy Mistress, the Theotokos, who art far more honorable than the Angels and Archangels, Cherubim and Seraphim, and far more holy than all the Saints, O Virgin Mother of God! Save me, Thy humble and sinful servant, for Thou knowest, All-merciful Lady, that, after God, I place all my hope in Thee, and that, I have no other refuge of salvation but Thee, O All-Good One, Thou art my strength, O Mistress, Thou art my power, Thou my rejoicing in sorrows, Thou my haven in temptations, Thou my correction in falls, Thou also mine All-Hoped for salvation, O Mother of my Lord and Maker! Help me who sail upon the depths of this life, terribly beset and endangered by drowning in sin. Grant me a helping hand, my Helper, and deliver me from the mire of the deep, that I not sink down into the abyss of despair; for the storm of sins and passions hath risen against me and the waves of transgressions overwhelm me. But do Thou, O Compassionate Mother, Thou Haven and Passionlessness, direct and save me, O Hope of the hopeless and Mediatress of my salvation. Amen.
