Ant. The Lord, the King of Virgins, * O come, let us worship.
Come let us praise the Lord with joy: let us joyfully sing to God our saviour. Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving; and make a joyful noise to him with psalms.
Ant. The Lord, the King of Virgins, * O come, let us worship.
For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods. For the Lord will not cast off his people: for in his hand are all the ends of the earth, and the heights of the mountains are his.
Ant. O come, let us worship.
For the sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land. (genuflect) Come let us adore and fall down: and weep before the Lord that made us: For he is the Lord our God: and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand.
Ant. The Lord, the King of Virgins, * O come, let us worship.
Today if you shall hear his voice, harden not your hearts: As in the provocation, according to the day of temptation in the wilderness: where your fathers tempted me, they proved me, and saw my works.
Ant. O come, let us worship.
Forty years long was I offended with that generation, and I said: These always err in heart. And these men have not known my ways: so I swore in my wrath that they shall not enter into my rest.
Ant. The Lord, the King of Virgins, * O come, let us worship.
℣. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
℟. As it was in the beginning, is now, * and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Sed te manet suávior

Hymn {from the Proper of Saints}
God's messenger, Theresa,
Thou leav'st thy father's home
To bring mankind to Jesus
Or gain sweet martyrdom.
But milder death awaits thee,
And fonder pains are thine,
God's blessed angel wounds thee
With fire of love divine.
Sweet virgin, love's pure victim,
So fire our souls with love,
And lead thy trusting people
Safe to the realms above.
Give glory to the Father,
The Spirit and the Son,
One Trinity, one Godhead,
While endless ages run.
Amen.

36:17 Quóniam brácchia peccatórum conteréntur: * confírmat autem justos Dóminus.
36:18 Novit Dóminus dies immaculatórum: * et heréditas eórum in ætérnum erit.
36:19 Non confundéntur in témpore malo, et in diébus famis saturabúntur: * quia peccatóres períbunt.
36:20 Inimíci vero Dómini mox ut honorificáti fúerint et exaltáti: * deficiéntes, quemádmodum fumus defícient.
36:21 Mutuábitur peccátor, et non solvet: * justus autem miserétur et tríbuet.
36:22 Quia benedicéntes ei hereditábunt terram: * maledicéntes autem ei disperíbunt.
36:23 Apud Dóminum gressus hóminis dirigéntur: * et viam ejus volet.
36:24 Cum cecíderit non collidétur: * quia Dóminus suppónit manum suam.
36:25 Júnior fui, étenim sénui: * et non vidi justum derelíctum, nec semen ejus quǽrens panem.
36:26 Tota die miserétur et cómmodat: * et semen illíus in benedictióne erit.
36:27 Declína a malo, et fac bonum: * et inhábita in sǽculum sǽculi.
36:28 Quia Dóminus amat judícium, et non derelínquet sanctos suos: * in ætérnum conservabúntur.
36:28 Injústi puniéntur: * et semen impiórum períbit.
36:29 Justi autem hereditábunt terram: * et inhabitábunt in sǽculum sǽculi super eam.

℟. Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
Ant. Brácchia peccatórum conteréntur, confírmat autem justos Dóminus.

Ant. The arms of the wicked * shall be broken in pieces; but the Lord strengtheneth the just.
Psalm 36(16-29) [5]
36:16 Better is a little to the just, * than the great riches of the wicked.
36:17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken in pieces; * but the Lord strengtheneth the just.
36:18 The Lord knoweth the days of the undefiled; * and their inheritance shall be for ever.
36:19 They shall not be confounded in the evil time; and in the days of famine they shall be filled, * because the wicked shall perish.
36:20 And the enemies of the Lord, presently after they shall be honoured and exalted, * shall come to nothing and vanish like smoke.
36:21 The sinner shall borrow, and not pay again; * but the just sheweth mercy and shall give.
36:22 For such as bless him shall inherit the land: * but such as curse him shall perish.
36:23 With the Lord shall the steps of a man be directed, * and he shall like well his way.
36:24 When he shall fall he shall not be bruised, * for the Lord putteth his hand under him.
36:25 I have been young, and now am old; * and I have not seen the just forsaken, nor his seed seeking bread.
36:26 He sheweth mercy, and lendeth all the day long; * and his seed shall be in blessing.
36:27 Decline from evil and do good, * and dwell for ever and ever.
36:28 For the Lord loveth judgment, and will not forsake his saints: * they shall be preserved for ever.
36:28 The unjust shall be punished, * and the seed of the wicked shall perish.
36:29 But the just shall inherit the land, * and shall dwell therein for evermore.

Ant. Keep innocence * and behold justice.
Psalm 36(30-40) [6]
36:30 The mouth of the just shall meditate wisdom: * and his tongue shall speak judgment.
36:31 The law of his God is in his heart, * and his steps shall not be supplanted.
36:32 The wicked watcheth the just man, * and seeketh to put him to death.
36:33 But the Lord will not leave him in his hands; * nor condemn him when he shall be judged.
36:34 Expect the Lord and keep his way: and he will exalt thee to inherit the land: * when the sinners shall perish thou shalt see.
36:35 I have seen the wicked highly exalted, * and lifted up like the cedars of Libanus.
36:36 And I passed by, and lo, he was not: * and I sought him and his place was not found.
36:37 Keep innocence, and behold justice: * for there are remnants for the peaceable man.
36:38 But the unjust shall be destroyed together: * the remnants of the wicked shall perish.
36:39 But the salvation of the just is from the Lord, * and he is their protector in the time of trouble.
36:40 And the Lord will help them and deliver them: * and he will rescue them from the wicked, and save them, because they have hoped in him.

Teresia Virgo, nata est Abulæ in Hispánia paréntibus tum genere tum pietáte præcláris. Ab iis divini timoris lacte educata, admirándum futuræ sanctitátis in tenerrima adhuc ætate specimen dedit. Nam, cum sanctórum Mártyrum acta perlegeret, adeo in ejus meditatióne Sancti Spíritus ignis exársit, ut, domo aufúgiens, in Africam trajiceret, ubi vitam pro glória Jesu Christi et animárum salúte profúnderet. A patruo revocata, ardens martyrii desidérium eleemosynis aliisque piis opéribus compensávit, jugibus lácrimis deplorans optimam sibi sortem fuísse præreptam. Mortua matre, cum a beatíssima Vírgine peteret ut se matrem esse monstraret, pii voti compos effecta est; semper perinde ac fília patrocinio Deiparæ pérfruens. Vigesimum ætátis annum agens, ad moniáles sanctæ Maríæ de Monte Carmelo se cóntulit.

The virgin Theresa was the daughter of a father and mother, equally honourable on account of their birth and of their godliness, (and was born) at Avila (in the kingdom of Old Castile) in Spain, (on the 28th day of March, in the year of our Lord 1515.) She was brought up from the dawn of her life in the fear of God, and when still only seven years old she gave a startling fore-cast of the holy earnestness of her later years. The reading of the acts of the holy martyrs so inflamed and excited her imagination, that she ran away from her father's house, with the design of going to Morocco and the hope there to lay down her life for the glory of Christ Jesus and the salvation of souls. (Upon the bridge over the Adaja, near the town,) she was met by an uncle and brought back to her mother, and was fain to slake her thirst for martyrdom by giving to the poor all the alms she could, and by other godly exercises, though still ever bewailing with tears that the highest prize had been snatched from her. (In the twelfth year of her age,) her mother died, and she besought the Most Blessed Virgin to be a mother to her in her stead. This she gained; thenceforth she lived always as a daughter under the shelter of the Mother of God. In the twentieth year of her age she withdrew herself among the nuns of St. Mary of Mount Carmel. There she dwelt for two-and-twenty years, tormented by grievous sicknesses and diverse temptations, and so bravely served her time in the hardest ranks of Christ's army, starved even of that comforting knowledge of God's reconciled love, wherein His holy children are so commonly used even upon earth to rejoice.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. Because of truth, and meekness, and righteousness;
* And thy right hand shall lead thee wonderfully.
℣. In thy comeliness, and thy beauty, go forward, fare prosperously, and reign.

Angelicis ditáta virtútibus, non modo propriam, sed publicam étiam salútem sollicita caritate curávit. Quare severiórem veterum Carmelitárum regulam, Deo afflante et Pio quarto approbante, primum muliéribus, deínde viris observandam propósuit. Efflóruit in eo consílio omnípotens miserentis Dómini benedíctio; nam duo supra trigínta monasteria inops virgo pótuit ædificare, ómnibus humanis destituta auxíliis, quinimmo adversántibus plerumque sæculi princípibus. Infidelium et hæreticórum ténebras perpetuis deflebat lácrimis, atque, ad placandam divinæ ultiónis iram, voluntarios proprii corporis cruciátus Deo pro eórum salúte dicábat. Tanto autem divini amoris incendio cor ejus conflagrávit, ut mérito víderit Angelum igníto jáculo sibi præcordia transverberántem, et audíerit Christum, data déxtera, dicéntem sibi: Deinceps, ut vera sponsa, meum zelábis honórem. Eo consiliante, maxime arduum votum emisit efficiéndi semper quidquid perfectius esse intellígeret. Multa cæléstis sapiéntiæ documénta conscripsit, quibus fidelium mentes ad supernæ pátriæ desidérium maxime excitántur.

Strengthened in the graces of an angel, the wideness of her love embraced in its tender care the salvation of other souls as well as of her own. To this end, under the blessing of God, and the approbation of Pius IV., she set, first before women and then before men, the observance of the stern Rule of the Old Carmelites. The blessing of the Almighty and merciful Lord did indeed rest most evidently upon this design. This penniless virgin, helped by no man, and in the teeth of many that were great in this world, was enabled to build two-and-thirty houses. The darkness of unbelievers and misbelievers drew from her unceasing tears, and she willingly gave up her own body to God to be tortured, to soften the fury of His indignation against them. His own love so blazed in her heart that she attained to see an Angel run her through with a fiery spear, and Christ Himself take her by the hand, and to hear Him say Henceforth thou shalt love Mine honour as a wife indeed. At His inspiration she took the extremely difficult vow to do always that which should seem to her to be most perfect. She wrote much, full of heavenly wisdom, whereby the minds of the faithful are enkindled to long for the Fatherland above.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity;
* Therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness.

Cum autem assidua ederet exempla virtútum, tam anxio castigándi corporis desidério æstuabat, ut, quamvis secus suadérent morbi quibus afflictabátur, corpus ciliciis, catenis, urticárum manípulis aliisque asperrimis flagellis sæpe cruciaret, et aliquándo inter spinas volutaret, sic Deum álloqui sólita: Dómine, aut pati aut mori; se semper miserrima morte pereuntem existimans, quámdiu a cælésti ætérnæ vitæ fonte abesset. Prophetíæ dono excelluit, eamque divinis charismátibus tam liberáliter locupletábat Dóminus, ut sæpius exclámans péterent beneficiis in se divinis modum imponi, nec tam céleri oblivióne culpárum suárum memóriam aboleri.

Earnest as were the examples of graces which she had shown, and grievous as was the state of her body, afflicted by disease, she still burnt with the desire of tormenting it. She tortured it with sackcloth, chains of spikes, handfuls of nettles, and heavy scourging. She rolled herself sometimes among thorns, and was used to cry to God "Lord! to suffer or to die." As long as she remained exiled from the heavenly Fountain of eternal life, her life was to her a lingering death. She was eminent for the gift of prophecy, and God did indeed so pour forth His bounties upon her, that she often cried to Him in entreaty not to bless her so as to make her forget her sins. It was worn out rather by the fever of her love than by the wasting of disease that she sank upon her deathbed at Alba. She foretold the day of her own death, received the Sacraments of the Church, and exhorted her disciples to peace, love, and strictness in observing the Rule, and then her soul, like a pure dove, winged its flight to rest with God, on the 15th day of October in the year 1582, being then 67 years of age. At her death she had a vision of Christ Jesus surrounded by Angels. A dead tree hard by the cell instantly broke into foliage. Her body is untouched by corruption even unto this day, and lieth in a sort of perfumed oil, regarded with godly reverence. She was famous for miracles both before and after her death, and was numbered by Gregory XV. among the Saints.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. After her shall virgins be brought unto the King, her fellows
* They shall be brought unto thee with gladness and rejoicing.

38:4 My heart grew hot within me: * and in my meditation a fire shall flame out.
38:5 I spoke with my tongue: * O Lord, make me know my end.
38:5 And what is the number of my days: * that I may know what is wanting to me.

38:6 And indeed all things are vanity: * every man living.
38:7 Surely man passeth as an image: * yea, and he is disquieted in vain.

38:8 And now what is my hope? Is it not the Lord? * And my substance is with thee.
38:9 Deliver thou me from all my iniquities: * thou hast made me a reproach to the fool.
38:10 I was dumb, and I opened not my mouth, because thou hast done it: * remove thy scourges from me.
38:12 The strength of thy hand hath made me faint in rebukes: * thou hast corrected man for iniquity.
38:12 And thou hast made his soul to waste away like a spider: * surely in vain is any man disquieted.
38:13 Hear my prayer, O Lord, and my supplication: * give ear to my tears.
38:13 Be not silent: for I am a stranger with thee, * and a sojourner as all my fathers were.
38:14 O forgive me, that I may be refreshed, before I go hence, * and be no more.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum
Matt 25:1-13
In illo témpore: Dixit Jesus discípulis suis parábolam hanc: Símile erit regnum cælórum decem virgínibus, quæ, accipiéntes lámpades suas, exiérunt óbviam sponso et sponsæ. Et réliqua.
Homilía sancti Gregórii Papæ
Homilía 12 in Evangelia
Sæpe vos, fratres caríssimi, admóneo prava ópera fúgere, mundi hujus inquinaménta devitáre, sed hodiérna sancti Evangélii lectióne compéllor dícere, ut, et bona, quæ ágitis, cum magna cautéla teneátis; ne per hoc, quod a vobis rectum géritur, favor aut grátia humána requirátur; ne appetítus laudis subrépat, et, quod foris osténditur, intus a mercéde vacuétur. Ecce enim Redemptóris voce decem vírgines, et omnes dicúntur vírgines, et tamen intra beatitúdinis jánuam non omnes sunt recéptæ; quia eárum quædam, dum de virginitáte sua glóriam foris éxpetunt, in vasis suis óleum habére noluérunt.
℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.

From the Holy Gospel according to St. Matthew
Matt 25:1
At that time, Jesus said to His disciples: The Kingdom of heaven shall be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the Bridegroom and the Bride. And so on.
Homily by Pope St. Gregory the Great
12th on the Gospels
Dearly beloved brethren oftentimes do I warn you to fly corrupt conversation, and to keep yourselves unspotted from the world. But the portion which is this day read from the Holy Gospel doth oblige me to say that even to these good things which ye do, ye must needs take all careful heed. Look ye well to it, that, when ye work righteousness, ye do it not as seeking the praise and admiration of men, for if the lust of praise do once creep in, that which seemeth so fair without, loseth its reward within. Behold how the Redeemer speaketh of these ten virgins. He calleth them all virgins, yet entered not all of them into the door of blessedness, for there were some of them who sought outwardly the honour of virginity, but would take no oil within their vessels with their lamps.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. This is one of those wise virgins, whom the Lord found watching, for when she took her lamp, she took oil with her.
* And when the Lord came, she went in with him to the marriage.
℣. At midnight there was a cry made: Behold, the Bridegroom cometh, go ye out to meet him.
℟. And when the Lord came, she went in with him to the marriage.

Sed prius quæréndum nobis est quid sit regnum cælórum, aut cur decem virgínibus comparétur, quæ étiam vírgines prudéntes et fátuæ dicántur.

Sed sciéndum nobis est quod sæpe in sacro elóquio regnum cælórum præséntis témporis Ecclésia dícitur.

First of all, it is for us to ask What is the kingdom of Heaven? And wherefore shall the same be likened unto ten virgins, whereof, albeit five were wise, yet five were foolish For if the kingdom of heaven be such that there shall in no wise enter into it anything that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie, Apoc. xxi. 27, how can it be like unto five virgins which were foolish? But we must know that, in the word of God, the kingdom of heaven doth oftentimes signify the Church as she now is, touching the which the Lord saith in another place " The Son of Man shall send forth His Angels, and they shall gather out of His kingdom all things that offend." Matth. xiii. 41. In that kingdom of Blessedness, wherein peace shall have her perfect reign, there shall be nothing found that offendeth for the angels to gather out.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. At midnight there was a cry made:

In quinque autem córporis sénsibus unusquísque subsístit; geminátus autem quinárius denárium pérficit.

In qua quia mali cum bonis et réprobi cum eléctis admíxti sunt, recte símilis virgínibus prudéntibus et fátuis esse perhibétur.

Reading 9
The body of every man doth consist of five senses, and five being doubled, is ten. Forasmuch, therefore, as the whole body of the faithful doth consist of two sexes, the Holy Church is likened unto ten virgins. And forasmuch as in the Church the good are for the present mingled with the bad, and the reprobate with the elect, it is rightly said that, of the ten virgins, five are wise and five are foolish. There are many who have self-control, which do keep themselves from lusting after things outward, whose hope beareth them to things inward, who chastise the flesh, who long with intense home-sickness for their Fatherland which is in heaven, who seek an eternal reward, and who will not to receive for their labours the praise of men. These are they who reckon their glory, not in the mouths of men, but in the testimony of their own conscience. And many there be likewise who afflict the body by self-control, and yet who seek for their self-control applause from men.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.

Psalm 134 [5]
134:1 Praise ye the name of the Lord: * O you his servants, praise the Lord:
134:2 You that stand in the house of the Lord, * in the courts of the house of our God.
134:3 Praise ye the Lord, for the Lord is good: * sing ye to his name, for it is sweet.
134:4 For the Lord hath chosen Jacob unto himself: * Israel for his own possession.
134:5 For I have known that the Lord is great, * and our God is above all gods.
134:6 Whatsoever the Lord pleased he hath done, in heaven, in earth, * in the sea, and in all the deeps.
134:7 He bringeth up clouds from the end of the earth: * he hath made lightnings for the rain.
134:8 He bringeth forth winds out of his stores: * He slew the firstborn of Egypt from man even unto beast.
134:9 He sent forth signs and wonders in the midst of thee, O Egypt: * upon Pharao, and upon all his servants.
134:10 He smote many nations, * and slew mighty kings:
134:11 Sehon king of the Amorrhites, and Og king of Basan, * and all the kingdoms of Chanaan.
134:12 And gave their land for an inheritance, * for an inheritance to his people Israel.
134:13 Thy name, O Lord, is for ever: * thy memorial, O Lord, unto all generations.
134:14 For the Lord will judge his people, * and will be entreated in favour of his servants.
134:15 The idols of the Gentiles are silver and gold, * the works of men’s hands.
134:16 They have a mouth, but they speak not: * they have eyes, but they see not.
134:17 They have ears, but they hear not: * neither is there any breath in their mouths.
134:18 Let them that make them be like to them: * and every one that trusteth in them.
134:19 Bless the Lord, O house of Israel: * bless the Lord, O house of Aaron.
134:20 Bless the Lord, O house of Levi: * you that fear the Lord, bless the Lord.

Hymn
Now in the sun's new dawning ray,
Lowly of heart, our God we pray
That he from harm may keep us free
In all the deeds this day shall see.
May fear of him our tongues restrain,
Lest strife unguarded speech should stain:
His favouring care our guardian be,
Lest our eyes feed on vanity.
May every heart be pure from sin
And folly find no place therein:
Scant need of food, excess denied,
Wear down in us the body's pride.
That when the light of day is gone,
And night in course shall follow on.
We, free from cares the world affords,
May chant the praise that is our Lord's.
All laud to God the Father be,
All praise, Eternal Son, to thee:
All glory, as is ever meet,
To God the holy Paraclete.
Amen.

Martyrologium {anticip.}
October 16th 2019, the 18th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:
In Africa, two hundred and seventy holy martyrs, all crowned alike.
There also the holy martyrs Martinian and Saturian, and two of their brethren. They were slaves of a certain Vandal, and were brought to believe in Christ by the holy Virgin Maxima, who was their fellow-slave.
In the persecution under the Arian king, Genseric, on account of their steadfastness in the Catholic faith, they were first beaten to the very bone with knotty cudgels, but for as much as they were so treated of a long while, and were always found sound and well the next day, they were banished. In their banishment they turned many barbarians to believe in Christ, and obtained from the Roman Pontiff a priest and other ministers to baptize them wherefore at last they were dragged to death through thorny places in the woods, being fastened by the feet behind chariots. Maxima overcame in many contendings,

Thou leav'st thy father's home
To bring mankind to Jesus
Or gain sweet martyrdom.
But milder death awaits thee,
And fonder pains are thine,
God's blessed angel wounds thee
With fire of love divine.
Sweet virgin, love's pure victim,
So fire our souls with love,
And lead thy trusting people
Safe to the realms above.
Give glory to the Father,
The Spirit and the Son,
One Trinity, one Godhead,
While endless ages run.

Ant. Thou, O Lord,
Psalm 11 [1]
11:2 Save me, O Lord, for there is now no saint: * truths are decayed from among the children of men.
11:3 They have spoken vain things every one to his neighbour: * with deceitful lips, and with a double heart have they spoken.
11:4 May the Lord destroy all deceitful lips, * and the tongue that speaketh proud things.
11:5 Who have said: We will magnify our tongue; our lips are our own; * who is Lord over us?
11:6 By reason of the misery of the needy, and the groans of the poor, * now will I arise, saith the Lord.
11:6 I will set him in safety; * I will deal confidently in his regard.
11:7 The words of the Lord are pure words: * as silver tried by the fire, purged from the earth, refined seven times.
11:8 Thou, O Lord, wilt preserve us: and keep us * from this generation for ever.
11:9 The wicked walk round about: * according to thy highness, thou hast multiplied the children of men.
℣. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
℟. As it was in the beginning, is now, * and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Psalm 15 [3]
15:1 Preserve me, O Lord, for I have put my trust in thee. * I have said to the Lord, thou art my God, for thou hast no need of my goods.
15:3 To the saints, who are in his land, * he hath made wonderful all my desires in them.
15:4 Their infirmities were multiplied: * afterwards they made haste.
15:4 I will not gather together their meetings for blood offerings: * nor will I be mindful of their names by my lips.

15:6 The lines are fallen unto me in goodly places: * for my inheritance is goodly to me.

15:10 Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; * nor wilt thou give thy holy one to see corruption.
15:11 Thou hast made known to me the ways of life, thou shalt fill me with joy with thy countenance: * at thy right hand are delights even to the end.
℣. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.

Hymnus
Te lucis ante términum,
Rerum Creátor, póscimus,
Ut pro tua cleméntia
Sis præsul et custódia.
Procul recédant sómnia,
Et nóctium phantásmata;
Hostémque nóstrum cómprime,
Ne polluántur córpora.
Præsta, Pater piíssime,
Patríque compar Únice,
Cum Spíritu Paráclito
Regnans per omne sǽculum.
Amen.

Hymn
Before the ending of the day,
Creator of the world, we pray
That with thy wonted favor thou
Wouldst be our guard and keeper now.
From all ill dreams defend our eyes,
From nightly fears and fantasies;
Tread under foot our ghostly foe,
That no pollution we may know.
O Father, that we ask be done,
Through Jesus Christ, thine only Son;
Who, with the Holy Ghost and thee,
Doth live and reign eternally.
Amen.
