The body of the cross is cut in deep scrolling foliage, the plaque above the corpus is lettered \u003cem\u003eJESUS NAZARENUS REX JUDÆORUM\u003c\/em\u003e, and two small medals stand at the ends of the arms, the Miraculous Medal on one side and a St. Benedict medal on the other.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe reverse is where it speaks. A flaming heart stands in a burst of rays at the crossing, with \u003cstrong\u003eFATHER\u003c\/strong\u003e on one arm and \u003cstrong\u003eFORGIVE THEM\u003c\/strong\u003e on the other, and down the shaft \u003cstrong\u003eBEHOLD THIS HEART WHICH HAS SO LOVED MEN\u003c\/strong\u003e. The first words are Christ's own from the cross; the second are those he spoke to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque.
