Sorrowful Mysteries

The Agony of Our Lord in the Garden
Then Jesus came with them to a plot of land called Gethsemane; and he said to his disciples, 'Stay here while I go other there to pray.' He took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee with him. And he began to feel sadness and anguish. Then he said to them, 'My soul is sorrowful to the point of death. Wait here and stay awake with me.'

-- Matthew 26:36-39

Our Lord is Crowned with Thorns
Then the governor's soldiers took Jesus with them into the Praetorium and collected the whole cohort round him. And they stripped him and put a scarlet cloak around him, and having twisted some thorns into a crown they put this on his head and placed a reed in his right hand. To make fun of him they knelt to him saying, 'Hail, king of the Jews!' And they spat on him and took the reed and struck him on the head with it.

--Matthew 27:27-31

The Crucifixion of Our Lord
After this, Jesus knew that everything had now been completed and, so that the scripture should be completely fulfilled, he said; 'I am thirsty'. A jar full of sour wine stood there; so, putting a sponge soaked in the wine on a hyssop stick, they held it up to his mouth. After Jesus had taken the wine he said ' It is fulfilled'; and bowing his head he gave up his spirit.

-- John 19:28-30
