Hymn {from the Common or Feast}
Th' eternal gifts of Christ the King,
The Apostles' glory, let us sing;
And all with hearts of gladness raise
Due hymns of thankful love and praise.
For they the Church's princes are,
Triumphant leaders in the war,
The heavenly King's own warrior band,
True lights to lighten every land.
Theirs was the steadfast faith of saints,
The hope that never yields nor faints,
The love of Christ in perfect glow,
That lay the prince of this world low.
In them the Father's glory shone,
In them the Spirit's will was done,
The Son himself exults in them;
Joy fills the new Jerusalem.
Praise to the Father, with the Son,
And Holy Spirit, Three in One;
As ever was in ages past,
And so shall be while ages last.
Amen.

Ex libro sancti Hierónymi Presbýteri de Scriptóribus Ecclesiásticis
Cap. 7
Lucas médicus Antiochénsis ut eius scripta índicant, Græci sermónis non ignárus, fuit sectátor Apóstoli Pauli, et omnis peregrinatiónis eius comes. Scripsit Evangélium, de quo idem Paulus: Mísimus, inquit, cum illo fratrem, cuius laus est in Evangélio per omnes ecclésias. Et ad Colossénses: Salútat vos Lucas, médicus caríssimus. Et ad Timótheum: Lucas est mecum solus.

From the Book on Ecclesiastical Writers, written by St. Jerome, Priest at Bethlehem.
Cap. 7
Luke was a physician of Antioch, who, as appeareth from his writings, knew the Greek language. He was a follower of the Apostle Paul, and his fellow traveller in all his wanderings. He wrote a Gospel, whereof the same Paul saith We have sent with him the brother, whose praise is in the Gospel throughout all the Churches 2 Cor. viii. 18. Of him, he writeth unto the Colossians, iv. 14: Luke, the beloved physician, greeteth you. And again, unto Timothy, II. iv. 11: Only Luke is with me.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. I saw men standing together, clad in shining raiment, and the Angel of the Lord spoke unto me, saying:
* These men are holy, for they are the friends of God.
℣. I saw a strong Angel of God fly into the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice:

Ex quo intellégimus in eádem urbe librum esse compósitum. Igitur períodos Pauli et Theclæ, et totam baptizáti Leónis fábulam, inter apócryphas scriptúras computámus.

He also published another excellent book entitled The Acts of the Apostles, wherein the history is brought down to Paul's two years sojourn at Rome, that is to say, until the fourth year of Nero, from which we gather that it was at Rome that the said book was composed. The silence of Luke is one of the reasons why we reckon among Apocryphal books The Acts of Paul and Thecla, and the whole story about the baptism of Leo. For why should the fellow traveller of the Apostle, who knew other things, be ignorant only of this?
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. Blessed are ye when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for My sake;
* Rejoice, and be exceeding glad, for great is your reward in heaven.

At the same time there is against these documents the statement of Tertullian, almost a contemporary writer, that the Apostle John convicted a certain Priest in Asia, who was a great admirer of the Apostle Paul, of having written them, and that the said Priest owned that he had been induced to compose them through his admiration for Paul, and that he was deposed in consequence. There are some persons who suspect that when Paul in his Epistles useth the phrase: "According to my Gospel" Rom. ii. 16, Tim. ii. 8, he meaneth the Gospel written by Luke.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.

However, Luke learned his Gospel not from the Apostle Paul only, who had not companied with the Lord in the flesh, but also from other Apostles, as himself declareth at the beginning of his work, where he saith: “They delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses and ministers of the word.” i. 2. According to what he had heard, therefore, did he write his Gospel. As to the Acts of the Apostles, he composed them from his own personal knowledge. He was never married. He lived eighty-four years. He is buried at Constantinople, whither his bones were brought from Achaia in the twentieth year of Constantine, together with the relics of the Apostle Andrew.

℣. Grant, Lord, a blessing.
Benediction. May He that is the Angels' King to that high realm His people bring. Amen.
Reading 12
Therefore, to preachers saith Isaiah: "Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight an highway for our God." xl. 3. And again the Psalmist saith: "Spread a path before him that rideth upon the West." lxvii. 4. The Lord rideth upon the West above that from which in death He veiled His glory, hath He royally exalted that glory that excelleth, even the glory of His rising again. He rideth upon the West, Who, being risen again from the dead, is throned high above the death to which He bowed. Before Him, therefore, That rideth upon the West, we spread a path, when we set forth His glory before the eyes of your mind, to the end that He Himself may come after, and Himself enlighten the same your minds by His presence and His love.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. There are no speeches nor languages, where their voices are not heard.
* Their sound has gone forth into all the earth: and their words to the ends of the world.
℣. Your friends O Lord are made exceedingly honourable: their principality is exceedingly strengthened.
℟. Their sound has gone forth into all the earth: and their words to the ends of the world.
℣. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
℟. Their sound has gone forth into all the earth: and their words to the ends of the world.

Sequéntia +︎ sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam
Luc 10:1-9
℟. Glória tibi, Dómine.
In illo témpore: Designávit Dóminus et álios septuagínta duos: et misit illos binos ante faciem suam in omnem civitátem et locum, quo erat ipse ventúrus. Et dicebat illis: Messis quidem multa, operárii autem pauci. Rogáte ergo Dóminum messis, ut mittat operários in messem suam. Ite: ecce, ego mitto vos sicut agnos inter lupos. Nolite portáre sácculum neque peram neque calceaménta; et néminem per viam salutavéritis. In quamcúmque domum intravéritis, primum dícite: Pax huic dómui: et si ibi fúerit fílius pacis, requiéscet super illum pax vestra: sin autem, ad vos revertétur. In eádem autem domo manéte, edentes et bibéntes quæ apud illos sunt: dignus est enim operárius mercéde sua. Nolíte transíre de domo in domum. Et in quamcúmque civitátem intravéritis, et suscéperint vos, manducáte quæ apponúntur vobis: et curáte infírmos, qui in illa sunt, et dícite illis: Appropinquávit in vos regnum Dei.
℟. Amen
Te decet laus, ✠ te decet hymnus: tibi glória Deo Patri, et Fílio, cum Spíritu Sancto in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

Continuation +︎ of the Holy Gospel according to Luke
Luke 10:1-9
℟. Glory be to you, O Lord.
At that time, the Lord appointed seventy-two others, and sent them forth two by two before Him into every town and place where He Himself was about to come. And He said to them, The harvest indeed is great, but the laborers are few. Pray therefore the Lord of the harvest to send forth laborers into His harvest. Go. Behold, I send you forth as lambs in the midst of wolves. Carry neither purse, nor wallet, nor sandals, and greet no one on the way. Whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace to this house!’ And if a son of peace be there, your peace will rest upon him; but if not, it will return to you. And remain in the same house, eating and drinking what they have; for the laborer deserves his wages. Do not go from house to house. And whatever town you enter, and they receive you, eat what is set before you, and cure the sick who are there, and say to them, ‘The kingdom of God is at hand for you.’
℟. Amen
Thou art worthy of praise, thou art worthy of hymns, to Thee be glory: to God the Father and the Son with the Holy Ghost, world without end. Amen.
