Since H.H. Pope Benedict will no longer be sovereign Pontiff what prayer will we now recite instead of:

V. Let us pray for our Pontiff, Pope Benedict.

R. May the Lord preserve him, and give him life, and bless him upon earth, and deliver him not to the will of his enemies.

:confused:
 
That prayer is not recited until there is a new pope. Since it is not part of the liturgy proper, it is simply omitted or replaced with some other prayer of the celebrant’s choosing.
 
What has been prayed in the past at the death of the pope. It’s not like there is no precedent.
