Hymnus

1. Come Holy Ghost who ever One Art with the Father and the Son, It is the hour, our souls possess With thy full flood of holiness. 2. Let flesh and heart and lips and mind Sound forth our witness to mankind; And love light up our mortal frame, Till others catch the living flame. 3. Almighty Father, hear our cry, Through Jesus Christ, our Lord most High, Who, with the Holy Ghost and thee, Doth live and reign eternally. Amen.

Psalmus 72 (0,9)

How good is God to Israel, * to them that are of a right heart!

  1. Mei autem pene moti sunt pedes: * pene effúsi sunt gressus mei.

    2. But my feet were almost moved; * my steps had wellnigh slipped.

  2. Quia zelávi super iníquos, * pacem peccatórum videns.

    3. Because I had a zeal on occasion of the wicked, * seeing the prosperity of sinners.

  3. Quia non est respéctus morti eórum: * et firmaméntum in plaga eórum.

    4. For there is no regard to their death, * nor is there strength in their stripes.

  4. In labóre hóminum non sunt: * et cum homínibus non flagellabúntur:

    5. They are not in the labour of men: * neither shall they be scourged like other men.

  5. Ideo ténuit eos supérbia, * opérti sunt iniquitáte et impietáte sua.

    6. Therefore pride hath held them fast: * they are covered with their iniquity and their wickedness.

  6. Pródiit quasi ex ádipe iníquitas eórum: * transiérunt in afféctum cordis.

    7. Their iniquity hath come forth, as it were from fatness: * they have passed into the affection of the heart.

  7. Cogitavérunt, et locúti sunt nequítiam: * iniquitátem in excélso locúti sunt.

    8. They have thought and spoken wickedness: * they have spoken iniquity on high.

  8. Posuérunt in cælum os suum: * et lingua eórum transívit in terra.

    9. They have set their mouth against heaven: * and their tongue hath passed through the earth.

  9. Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.

    10. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.

  10. Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

    11. As it was in the beginning, is now, * and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Psalmus 72 (9,17)

They have set their mouth against heaven: * and their tongue hath passed through the earth.

  1. Et dixérunt: Quómodo scit Deus, * et si est sciéntia in excélso?

    2. Therefore will my people return here * and full days shall be found in them.

  2. Ecce ipsi peccatóres, et abundántes in sǽculo, * obtinuérunt divítias.

    3. And they said: How doth God know? * and is there knowledge in the most High?

  3. Et dixi: Ergo sine causa justificávi cor meum, * et lavi inter innocéntes manus meas.

    4. Behold these are sinners; and yet abounding in the world * they have obtained riches.

  4. Et fui flagellátus tota die, * et castigátio mea in matutínis.

    5. And I said: Then have I in vain justified my heart, * and washed my hands among the innocent.

  5. Si dicébam: Narrábo sic: * ecce natiónem filiórum tuórum reprobávi.

    6. And I have been scourged all the day; * and my chastisement hath been in the mornings.

  6. Existimábam ut cognóscerem hoc, * labor est ante me.

    7. If I said: I will speak thus; * behold I should condemn the generation of thy children.

  7. Donec intrem in Sanctuárium Dei: * et intélligam in novíssimis eórum.

    8. I studied that I might know this thing, * it is a labour in my sight:

  8. Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.

    9. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.

  9. Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

    10. As it was in the beginning, is now, * and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Psalmus 72 (17,28)

Until I go into the sanctuary of God, * and understand concerning their last ends.

  1. Quómodo facti sunt in desolatiónem, súbito defecérunt: * periérunt propter iniquitátem suam.

    2. But indeed for deceits thou hast put it to them: * when they were lifted up, thou hast cast them down.

  2. Velut sómnium surgéntium, Dómine, * in civitáte tua imáginem ipsórum ad níhilum rédiges.

    3. How are they brought to desolation? they have suddenly ceased to be: * they have perished by reason of their iniquity.

  3. Quia inflammátum est cor meum, et renes mei commutáti sunt: * et ego ad níhilum redáctus sum, et nescívi.

    4. As the dream of them that awake, O Lord; * so in thy city thou shalt bring their image to nothing.

  4. Ut juméntum factus sum apud te: * et ego semper tecum.

    5. For my heart hath been inflamed, and my reins have been changed: * and I am brought to nothing, and I knew not.

  5. Tenuísti manum déxteram meam: † et in voluntáte tua deduxísti me, * et cum glória suscepísti me.

    6. I am become as a beast before thee: * and I am always with thee.

  6. Quid enim mihi est in cælo? * et a te quid vólui super terram?

    7. Thou hast held me by my right hand; and by thy will thou hast conducted me, * and with thy glory thou hast received me.

  7. Defécit caro mea, et cor meum: * Deus cordis mei, et pars mea Deus in ætérnum.

    8. For what have I in heaven? * and besides thee what do I desire upon earth?

  8. Quia ecce, qui elóngant se a te, períbunt: * perdidísti omnes, qui fornicántur abs te.

    9. For thee my flesh and my heart hath fainted away: * thou art the God of my heart, and the God that is my portion for ever.

  9. Mihi autem adhærére Deo bonum est: * pónere in Dómino Deo spem meam:

    10. For behold they that go far from thee shall perish: * thou hast destroyed all them that are disloyal to thee.

  10. Ut annúntiem omnes prædicatiónes tuas, * in portis fíliæ Sion.

    11. But it is good for me to adhere to my God, * to put my hope in the Lord God:

  11. Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.

    12. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.

  12. Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

    13. As it was in the beginning, is now, * and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Capitulum Responsorium Versus

Rom 6:9-10

Christus resúrgens ex mórtuis iam non móritur, † mors illi ultra non dominábitur. * Quod enim mórtuus est peccáto, mórtuus est semel: quod autem vivit, vivit Deo.

Knowing that Christ rising again from the dead, dieth now no more, death shall no more have dominion over him. For in that he died to sin, he died once; but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God.



Oratio

Orémus.

Deus, qui in Fílii tui humilitáte iacéntem mundum erexísti: † fidélibus tuis perpétuam concéde lætítiam; * ut, quos perpétuæ mortis eripuísti cásibus, gáudiis fácias pérfrui sempitérnis.
Per eúndem Dóminum nostrum Iesum Christum Fílium tuum, qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitáte Spíritus Sancti, Deus, * per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum.

O God, Whose Son hath humbled Himself, and Who hast through Him raised up the whole world, grant to thy faithful people everlasting joy; and as Thou hast delivered them from the bitter pains of eternal death, make them to be glad for ever in thy presence.
Through the same Jesus Christ, thy Son, Our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end.
