Stella Caeli Extirpavit

Star of heaven, who nourished the Lord and rooted up the plague of death which our first parents planted: may that star now deign to restrain the constellations whose strife grants the people the ulcers of a dreadful death. O glorious star of the sea, save us from pestilence. Hear us, O Lady, for thy Son, denying thee nothing, honors thee. Save us, O Jesus, for whom the Virgin Mother prays to thee.
