Would somebody please clarify the following for me?

I know that a person can gain more than one partial indulgence within a day.  But regarding the prayers to be offered for the intentions of our Pope, does one have to pray for the Pope for every indulgence that one hopes to gain?  Or does praying for him once in a day suffice to gain multiple partial indulgences?

I don't want to sound stingy with my prayers for our dear Holy Father, but I would really like to focus on offering indulgences for the Poor Souls this month and want to make sure that I understand the norms correctly.  There are so many holy opportunities with praying the rosary, reading Scripture, Adoration of Our Lord; I just want to make sure if I'm suppose to offer additional prayers for our Pope after each act.  Pray

God Bless!

I just checked the Norms for Indulgences and, as I thought, there is no requirement for prayers for the intentions of the Holy Father in order to receive a partial indulgence. Only for a plenary indulgence, limited to one a day except at the point of death.
