Collect

O God, who didst adorn blessed Nicholas thy Bishop with many wonderful works: grant, we beseech thee, that through his merits and prayers we may be delivered from the flames of hell. Through thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who with thee in the unity of the Holy Spirit, liveth and reigneth God, world without end.

℟.Amen.
