Full text: 

O domine Iesu Christe, adoro te in cruce pendentem et coronam spineam in capite portantem. Deprecor te ut ipsa crux liberet me ab angelo percutiente.

English translation: 

O Lord Jesus Christ, I adore thee hanging on the cross, wearing the crown of thorns upon thy head.
I beseech thee that this same cross may deliver me from the angel that smiteth.
