Exceddingly tormenting was this scourging for Jesus Christ, because there were sixty executioners, succeeding one another. The scourges chosen for this work were the most severe, every blow made a wound. The strokes besides, reached to many thousand; so that even the very bones of the sides of our Lord were laid bare, as revealed to St. Bridget.
Ah, my Jesus, I thank you for Thy great love. It grieves me that I too joined in scourging Thee. I curse all my sinful pleasures which cost Thee so much pain. Make me often remember, O Lord, the love which Thou hast borne me, to the end that I may love Thee, and never offend Thee any more.
