Upon the three small beads of the cross, say:

May the most Holy Name of God be glorified by the most holy soul of the incarnate Word.
May the most sacred Name of God be glorified by the Sacred Heart of the incarnate Word.
May the most adorable Name of God be glorified by all the wounds of the incarnate Word.

Upon the five large bead, say:

We invoke Thee, O sacred Name of the living God, by the mouth of Jesus in the most holy Sacrament, and we offer Thee, O my God, by the blessed hands of the most holy Virgin Mary, all the holy hosts which are upon our altars as a sacrifice of honorable amends and of reparation for all the blasphemies which outrage Thy Holy Name.

Upon each small bead of ten, say:

Hail, O sacred Name of the living God, through the Heart of Jesus in the most Holy Sacrament.
I revere Thee, O sacred Name of the living God, through the Heart of Jesus in the most Holy Sacrament.
I adore Thee, O sacred Name of the living God, through the Heart of Jesus in the most Holy Sacrament.
I glorify Thee, O sacred Name of the living God, through the Heart of Jesus in the most Holy Sacrament.
I praise Thee, O sacred Name of the living God, through the Heart of Jesus in the most Holy Sacrament.
I admire Thee, O sacred Name of the living God, through the Heart of Jesus in the most Holy Sacrament.
I celebrate Thee, O sacred Name of the living God, through the Heart of Jesus in the most Holy Sacrament.
I exalt Thee, O sacred Name of the living God, through the Heart of Jesus in the most Holy Sacrament.
I love Thee, O sacred Name of the living God, through the Heart of Jesus in the most Holy Sacrament.
I bless Thee, O sacred Name of the living God, through the Heart of Jesus in the most Holy Sacrament.
