I am happy to say so. I did not find any error at all. I was just curious where this came from. I was unfamiliar with some it. Thanks for explaining the source.

Stir up within Thy Church, we beseech Thee, O Lord, the Spirit with which blessed Josaphat, Thy Martyr and Bishop, was filled, when he laid down his life for his sheep: so that, through his intercession, we too may be moved and strengthen by the same Spirit, and may not shrink from giving our lives for our brethren. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, Who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, one God, world without end. Amen.

I've heard of priests who recommend praying the Rosary all day long, using your
fingers. They acknowledge that you don't get the indulgence you would if you
held beads, but they say the effect is powerful, as anyone who makes 15 decades
a day habitual will find that they do not lose the state of grace from day to day.
That says a lot.
My own experience with that is, that I'm easily distracted, and when I use my
fingers, or even one of those rosary-ring do-dads, I forget which decade I'm
on and I end up having to repeat decades. When I'm tired, sometimes one
rosary can take all day to finish, because I forget where I am, even whether
it's the Joyful, Sorrowful or Glorious Mysteries. I don't have that problem when
I hold rosary beads.
