THE PRAYER OF POPE PIUS IX, Our Lady of Perpetual Help - O Lord Jesus Christ, who gave us your Mother Mary, whose renowned image we venerate, to be a Mother ever ready to help us; grant we beseech You, that we who constantly implore her motherly aid, may merit to enjoy perpetually the fruits of Your redemption, Who lives and reigns forever and ever. Amen.

O my Queen, O my Mother, I love you and give myself to you. I give to you this day my eyes, my ears, my mouth, my heart, my whole self. Since I am yours, keep me and guard me as your child forever. Amen.

If God thought the Rosary to be so important as to send the Blessed Virgin Mary at Fatima, and to allow a miracle to be witnessed by over 70,000 people, I think that we too should value the Rosary very highly. http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...

Pope Paul III, Council of Trent, Sess. 6, Chap. 4: "In these words there is suggested a description of the justification of the impious, how there is a transition from that state in which a person is born as a child of the first Adam to the state of grace and of adoption as sons of God through the second Adam, Jesus Christ our savior; indeed, this transition, once the gospel has been promulgated, CANNOT TAKE PLACE *WITHOUT the laver of regeneration or a desire for it, (*sine lavacro regenerationis aut eius voto) AS IT IS WRITTEN: Unless a man is born again of water and the Holy Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God (John 3:5)."

Note the words: "The impious."
Impious: "lacking in reverence or proper respect"
This chapter is dealing with those who are impious, and so it is not dealing with infants, as "impious" can not refer to those below the age of reason. Impious would refer to (as the example that I gave), an obstinate Muslim.

This chapter of the Council of Trent is so far from supporting the theory of Baptism of Desire that people actually try to use a different translation as an attempt at making the council say what they would like it to say.
Here is how Google translate translates the text:
*sine lavacro regenerationis aut eius voto

(You have to copy and paste the Latin words)

Other decrees from the Council of Trent on baptism:

Pope Paul III, The Council of Trent, Can. 2 on the Sacrament of Baptism, Sess. 7, 1547, ex cathedra: "If anyone shall say that real and natural water is not necessary for baptism, and on that account those words of Our Lord Jesus Christ: 'Unless a man be born again of water and the Holy Spirit' [John 3:5], are distorted into some sort of metaphor: let him be anathema."67

Pope Paul III, The Council of Trent, Can. 5 on the Sacrament of Baptism, Sess. 7, 1547, ex cathedra: "If anyone says that baptism [the sacrament] is optional, that is, not necessary for salvation (cf. Jn. 3:5): let him be anathema."

Pope Paul III, The Council of Trent, On Original Sin, Session V, ex cathedra: "By one man sin entered into the world, and by sin death... so that in them there may be washed away by regeneration, what they have contracted by generation, 'For unless a man be born again of water and the Holy Ghost, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God [John 3:5]."
