Each day also has a true life example of those who were aided by Mary in their struggle to save their soul. On the 31st day he presents a consecration to Mary along with good practical resolutions to help us live this consecration to the delight of Heaven and our own happiness, now and in eternity.

Then he gives brief meditations that cover a span of 31 days, which he recommends are made before the Tabernacle (although, if this is not possible then they can certainly be made anywhere).
