passus sub Póntio Piláto, crucifíxus, mórtuus, et sepúltus: descéndit ad ínferos; tértia die resurréxit a mórtuis; ascéndit ad cælos; sedet ad déxteram Dei Patris omnipoténtis: inde ventúrus est judicáre vivos et mórtuos. Credo in Spíritum Sanctum, sanctam Ecclésiam cathólicam,
Sanctórum communiónem, remissiónem peccatórum, carnis resurrectiónem, vitam ætérnam. Amen.

Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation: But deliver us from evil. Amen.
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
I believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth. And in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried: he descended into hell; the third day he arose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven; sitteth at the right hand of God the Father almighty: from thence he shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost, the holy catholic Church, the communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.
℣. O Lord, +︎ open thou my lips.
℟. And my mouth shall declare thy praise.
℣. O God, ✠ come to my assistance;
℟. O Lord, make haste to help me.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.

Quem terra, pontus, ǽthera
Colunt, adórant, prædicant,
Trinam regéntem máchinam,
Claustrum Maríæ bájulat.
Cui luna, sol, et ómnia
Desérviunt per témpora,
Perfúsa cæli grátia,
Gestant puéllæ víscera.
Beáta Mater múnere,
Cujus supérnus ártifex
Mundum pugíllo cóntinens,
Ventris sub arca clausus est.
Beáta cæli núntio,
Fœcúnda sancto Spíritu,
Desiderátus géntibus,
Cujus per alvum fusus est.
Glória tibi, Dómine,
Qui natus es de Vírgine,
Cum Patre, et Sancto Spíritu,
In sempitérna sǽcula.

Hymn {from the Common or Feast}
The God whom earth, and sea, and sky
Adore, and laud, and magnify,
Who o'er their threefold fabric reigns,
The Virgin's spotless womb contains.
The God, whose will by moon and sun
And all things in due course is done,
Is borne upon a maiden's breast,
By fullest heavenly grace possest,
How blest that mother, in whose shrine
The great artificer divine,
Whose hand contains the earth and sky,
Vouchsafed, as in his ark, to lie.
Blest, in the message Gabriel brought;
Blest, by the work the Spirit wrought;
From whom the great desire of earth
Took human flesh and human birth.
All honour, laud, and glory be,
O Jesu, Virgin-born to thee;
All glory, as is ever meet,
To Father and to Paraclete.
Amen.

Job 31:1-6
1 Pépigi fœdus cum óculis meis, ut ne cogitárem quidem de vírgine.
2 Quam enim partem habéret in me Deus désuper, et hereditátem Omnípotens de excélsis?
3 Numquid non perdítio est iníquo, et alienátio operántibus injustítiam?
4 Nonne ipse consíderat vias meas, et cunctos gressus meos dinúmerat?

6 Appéndat me in statéra justa, et sciat Deus simplicitátem meam.
℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.

Lesson from the book of Job
Job 31:1-6
1 I made a covenant with my eyes, that I would not so much as think upon a virgin.
2 For what part should God from above have in me, and what inheritance the Almighty from on high?
3 Is not destruction to the wicked, and aversion to them that work iniquity?
4 Doth not he consider my ways, and number all my steps?
5 If I have walked in vanity, and my foot hath made haste to deceit:
6 Let him weigh me in a just balance, and let God know my simplicity.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. O that Thou wouldest hide me in the grave; that Thou wouldest keep me secret, until thy wrath be past, even thine, O Lord, Thou That alone art God;
* That Thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me!
℣. Are thy days as the days of man, that Thou inquirest after mine iniquity, and there is none that can deliver out of thine hand.
℟. That Thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me!

7 Si declinávit gressus meus de via, et si secútum est óculos meos cor meum, et si mánibus meis adhǽsit mácula,
8 Seram, et álius cómedat, et progénies mea eradicétur.
9 Si decéptum est cor meum super mulíere, et si ad óstium amíci mei insidiátus sum,
10 Scortum altérius sit uxor mea, et super illam incurvéntur álii.
11 Hoc enim nefas est et iníquitas máxima;
12 Ignis est usque ad perditiónem dévorans et ómnia eradícans genímina.
℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
℟. Utinam appenderéntur peccáta mea, quibus iram mérui,

Job 31:7-12
7 If my step hath turned out of the way, and if my heart hath followed my eyes, and if a spot hath cleaved to my hands:
8 Then let me sow and let another eat: and let my offspring be rooted out.
9 If my heart hath been deceived upon a woman, and if I have laid wait at my friend's door:
10 Let my wife be the harlot of another, and let other men lie with her.
11 For this is a heinous crime, and a most grievous iniquity.
12 It is a fire that devoureth even to destruction, and rooteth up all things that spring.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. O that my sins, whereby I have deserved wrath;
* And the calamity whereunder I suffer, were laid in the balances together.
℣. For now it would appear heavier than the sand of the sea, therefore also my words are full of sorrow.
℟. And the calamity, whereunder I suffer, were laid in the balances together.

15 Numquid non in útero fecit me, qui et illum operátus est? et formávit me in vulva unus?
16 Si negávi, quod volébant, paupéribus et óculos víduæ exspectáre feci;
17 Si comédi buccéllam meam solus, et non comédit pupíllus ex ea

Job 31:13-18
13 If I have despised to abide judgment with my manservant, or my maidservant, when they had any controversy against me:
14 For what shall I do when God shall rise to judge? and when he shall examine, what shall I answer him?
15 Did not he that made me in the womb make him also: and did not one and the same form me in the womb?
16 If I have denied to the poor what they desired, and have made the eyes of the widow wait:
17 If I have eaten my morsel alone, and the fatherless hath not eaten thereof:
18 (For from my infancy mercy grew up with me: and it came out with me from my mother's womb)
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. Why do ye argue against the words of truth? Do ye imagine words to reprove me and strive to confound one that is your friend?
* Nevertheless, finish that ye have in mind.
℣. Judge that which is just, and ye shall find no iniquity in my tongue.
℟. Nevertheless, finish that ye have in mind.

Sermo sancti Bernardi Abbatis.
Sermo in cap. 12. Apocalypsis, ante medium.
Novum fecit Dominus super terram, ut mulier circumdaret virum, nec alium quam Christum, de quo dicitur: Ecce vir, Oriens nomen ejus. Novum quoque fecit in cælo, ut mulier sole appareret amicta. Denique et coronavit eum, et vicissim ab eo meruit coronari. Egredimini filiæ Sion, et videte regem Salomonem in diademate, quo coronavit eum mater sua. Verum hoc alias. Interim sane ingredimini magis, et videte Reginam in diademate, quo coronavit eam filius suus. In capite, inquit, ejus corona stellarum duodecim.
℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
℟. Natívitas gloriósæ Vírginis Maríæ ex semine Abrahæ, ortæ de tribu Juda, clara ex stirpe David;

From the Sermons of St. Bernard, Abbot of Clairvaux,
on Apoc. xii. I.
The Lord hath created a new thing in the earth, a woman shall compass a man. Jer. xxxi. 22. And this man is no other than Christ, of Whom it is said Behold the Man Whose name is The Dayspring Zech. vi. 12. In heaven also hath the Lord created a new thing, a woman clothed with the sun. She also hath crowned Him and hath earned from Him a crown in return. Go forth, O ye daughters of Zion, and behold King Solomon with the crown wherewith his mother crowned him. Cant. iii. ii. And again go forth now, and behold the Queen with the crown wherewith her Son crowned her. And upon her head, saith St. John, a crown of twelve stars.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. This day was born the glorious Virgin Mary, a child of the seed of Abraham, a daughter of the tribe of Judah, a Princess of the lineage of David.
* This is she whose famous life still sheddeth lustre upon all the Churches.

Dignum plane stellis coronari caput, quod et ipsis longe clarius micans, ornet eas potius quam ornetur ab eis. Quidni coronent sidera, quam sol vestit? Sicut dies verni, ait, circumdabant eam flores rosarum et lilia convallium. Nimirum læva sponsi sub capite ejus, et jam dextera illius amplexatur eam. Quis illas æstimet gemmas? Quis stellas nominet, quibus Mariæ regium diadema compactum est?
℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
℟. Cum jucunditáte Nativitátem beátæ Maríæ celebrémus,

What is an head worthy to be crowned with stars whose own glory is greater than theirs, and rather giveth than receiveth lustre from them. Why should not she have stars for her crown, who hath the sun for her clothing? And about her it was as the flower of roses in the spring of the year, and lilies of the valleys. Ecclus. 1. 8. The left hand of her Bridegroom is under her head, and his right hand doth embrace her. Cant. ii. 6. Who shall appraise these starry jewels whereof is made the Queenly crown of Mary?
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. Let us keep with rejoicing the Birthday of the Blessed Mary,
* That she may pray for us to our Lord Jesus Christ.

Quid ergo sidereum micat in generatione Mariæ? Plane quod ex regibus orta, quod ex semine Abrahæ, quod generosa ex stirpe David. Si id parum videtur, adde quod generationi illi ob singulare privilegium sanctitatis divinitus noscitur esse concessa, quod longe ante eisdem patribus cælitus repromissa, quod mysticis præfigurata miraculis, quod oraculis prænuntiata propheticis. Hanc enim sacerdotalis virga dum sine radice fioruit: hanc Gedeonis vellus, dum in medio siccæ areæ maduit: hanc in Ezechielis visione Orientalis porta, quæ nulli umquam patuit, præsignabat.
℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
℟. Natívitas tua, Dei Génitrix Virgo, gáudium annuntiávit univérso mundo;
* Ex te enim ortus est sol justítiæ, Christus Deus noster: * Qui, solvens maledictiónem, dedit benedictiónem; et confúndens mortem, donávit nobis vitam sempitérnam.

What starry splendour flasheth in the birth of Mary? Manifestly, she was a daughter of Kings, a child of the seed of Abraham, a Princess of the lineage of David. But whereas this is but too little, add that she is known to have been granted by God to that race, on account of the singular privilege of holiness which the same possesseth, to have been promised from heaven long before her fathers were born, to have been foreshadowed by mysterious wonders, and foretold by the utterances of Prophets. She was the rootless rod of Aaron the Priest, which yet budded, and brought forth buds, and bloomed blossoms, and yielded almonds. Num. xvii. 8. She was the fleece of Gideon, which was put in the floor, and whereon only there was dew when it was dry upon all the earth beside. Judges vi. 37, 38. She was the gate which Ezekiel saw, which looked toward the East and was shut, and the Lord said unto him: This gate shall be shut, it shall not be opened, and no man shall enter in by it. Ezek. xliv. 1, 2.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. Thy Birth, O Virgin Mother of God, was a message of joy to the whole world;
* For out of thee rose the Sun of righteousness, even Christ our God, Who hath taken away the curse and brought a blessing, confounded death, and given unto us everlasting life.
℣. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the Fruit of thy womb.
℟. For out of thee rose the Sun of righteousness, even Christ our God.
℣. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
℟. Who hath taken away the curse and brought a blessing, confounded death, and given unto us everlasting life.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum.
Matt 1:1-17
Liber generationis Jesu Christi filii David, filii Abraham. Abraham genuit Isaac. Isaac autem genuit Jacob. Et réliqua.
Homilia sancti Hilarii Epíscopi.
Comment. in Matth. can. 1.
Gressus quem Matthæus in ordine regiæ successionis ediderat, et quem Lucas per sacerdotalem ordinem dinumerat, uterque agnationem in Domino utriusque tribus significat, et rectæ generationis gradum ponit: quia sacerdotalis et regiæ tribus societas, per David ex conjugio inita, jam a Salathiel in Zorobabel confirmatur ex genere. Atque ita, dum Matthæus paternam originem, quæ ex Juda proficiscebatur, recenset; Lucas vero acceptum per Nathan ex tribu Levi genus edocet: suis uterque partibus Domino nostro Jesu Christo, qui est æternus et Rex et Sacerdos, étiam in carnali ortu utriusque generis gloriam probaverunt.
℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
℟. Beátam me dicent omnes generatiónes,
* Quia fecit mihi Dóminus magna qui potens est, et sanctum nomen ejus.
℣. Et misericórdia ejus a progénie in progénies timéntibus eum.
℟. Quia fecit mihi Dóminus magna qui potens est, et sanctum nomen ejus.

From the Holy Gospel according to Matthew
Matt 1:1-17
The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the Son of David, the son of Abraham. Abraham begat Isaac, and Isaac begat Jacob. And so on.
Homily by St. Hilary, Bishop of Poitiers.
Comment, on Matth. i.)
By the generation which Matthew noteth in the Kingly, and Luke in the Priestly descent of our Lord, both mean to show His relationship with each race, and both reach it in the clear line of the pedigree which they are tracing, for that connection between the Kingly and Priestly houses which was begun by the marriage of David was fully accomplished in the link between Salathiel and Zorobabel. And so while Matthew recordeth the line from father to son coming down from Judah, and Luke teacheth the descent from the tribe of Levi through Nathan, both prove that by His forefathers our Lord Jesus, Who is already a King and a Priest from everlasting to everlasting, hath also the right to these dignities by earthly inheritance.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. All generations shall call me blessed.
* For He that is mighty, even the Lord, hath done to me great things; and Holy is His Name.
℣. And his mercy is on them that fear Him, from generation to generation.
℟. He that is mighty, even the Lord, hath done to me great things; and Holy is His Name.

℣. Jube, domne, benedícere.
Benedictio. Cujus festum cólimus, ipsa Virgo vírginum intercédat pro nobis ad Dóminum. Amen.
Lectio 8
Quod vero Joseph potius quam Mariæ nativitas recensetur, nihil refert: eadem enim est totius tribus atque una cognatio. Exemplum autem étiam Matthæus et Lucas dederunt, patres invicem appellantes, non tam genere, quam gente: quia ab una tribu cœpta, sub unius successionis et originis familia continetur. Cum enim filius David atque Abrahæ sit ostendendus, ita Matthæus cœpit: Liber generationis Jesu Christi filii David, filii Abraham.
℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
℟. Felix namque es, sacra Virgo María, et omni laude digníssima:
* Quia ex te ortus est sol justítiæ, Christus, Deus noster.
℣. Ora pro pópulo, intérveni pro clero, intercéde pro devóto femíneo sexu: séntiant omnes tuum juvámen, quicúmque célebrant tuam sanctam Visitatiónem.
℟. Quia ex te ortus est sol justítiæ.
℣. Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.
℟. Christus, Deus noster.

℣. Grant, Lord, a blessing.
Benediction. She whose feast-day we are keeping, Mary, blessed Maid of Maidens, be our Advocate with God. Amen.
Reading 8
That it is the pedigree of Joseph and not of Mary which is given mattereth nothing, seeing that they were both of the same tribe and of the same family. Both Matthew and Luke afford instances of giving the title of father and son to persons who were only fore-father and descendant, the line being treated as one where the descent is in the same blood. Thus when Matthew will show that the Lord was the Son of David and Abraham, he saith The Book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the Son of David, the son of Abraham.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. O Holy Virgin Mary, happy indeed art thou, and right worthy of all praise
* For out of thee rose the Sun of righteousness, even Christ our God.
℣. Pray for the people, plead for the clergy, make intercession for all women vowed to God. Let all that are making this holy memorial of thy Visitation feel the might of thine assistance.
℟. For out of thee rose the Sun of righteousness.
℣. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
℟. Even Christ our God.

Commemoratio for the holy Martyrs Protus and Hyacinth.
Protus and Hyacinth were brethren, eunuchs of the blessed Virgin Eugenia, and were baptized along with her by Bishop Helenus. They gave themselves to the study of God's Word, and dwelt for a while in wonderful lowliness and holiness of life in a monastery in Egypt. However, they afterwards followed the holy Virgin Eugenia to Rome, in the reign of the Emperor Gallienus, and were arrested in that city for professing the Christian faith. By no means could they be brought to leave the Christian religion and to worship the gods, and they were therefore severely scourged and beheaded, upon the 11th day of September.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
Te Deum
We praise thee, O God, * we acknowledge thee to be the Lord.
All the earth doth worship thee, * the Father everlasting.
To thee all Angels cry aloud, * the Heavens, and all the Powers therein.
To thee Cherubim and Seraphim * continually do cry.
bow head Holy, Holy, Holy * Lord God of Sabaoth;
Heaven and earth are full * of the Majesty of thy glory.
The glorious company of the Apostles * praise thee.
The goodly fellowship of the Prophets * praise thee.
The noble army of Martyrs * praise thee.
The holy Church throughout all the world * doth acknowledge thee;
The Father, * of an infinite Majesty.
Thine honourable, true, * and only Son;
Also the Holy Ghost, * the Comforter.
Thou art the King of Glory, * O Christ.
Thou art the everlasting * Son of the Father.
During the following verse all make a profound bow: When thou tookest upon thee to deliver man, * thou didst not abhor the Virgin's womb.
When thou hadst overcome the sharpness of death, * thou didst open the Kingdom of Heaven to all believers.
Thou sittest at the right hand of God, * in the glory of the Father.
We believe that thou shalt come * to be our Judge.
Kneel for the following verse
We therefore pray thee, help thy servants, * whom thou hast redeemed with thy precious Blood.
Make them to be numbered with thy Saints, * in glory everlasting.
O Lord, save thy people, * and bless thine heritage.
Govern them, * and lift them up for ever.
Day by day * we magnify thee;
During the following verse, by local custom, all make a profound bow. And we worship thy Name * ever, world without end.
Vouchsafe, O Lord, to keep us * this day without sin.
O Lord, have mercy upon us, * have mercy upon us.
O Lord, let thy mercy lighten upon us, * as our trust is in thee.
O Lord, in thee have I trusted, * let me never be confounded.

O glorious lady! throned on high
Above the star-illumined sky;
Thereto ordained, thy bosom lent
To thy Creator nourishment.

The bliss once lost through hapless Eve;
And heaven to mortals open lies
Now thou art portal of the skies.
Thou art the door of heaven's high King,
Light's gateway fair and glistering;
Life through a Virgin is restored;
Ye ransomed nations, praise the Lord!
All honour, laud, and glory be,
O Jesu, Virgin-born, to thee;
All glory, as is ever meet,
To Father and to Paraclete.
Amen.

Hymnus {Doxology: NatT}
Jam lucis orto sídere,
Deum precémur súpplices,
Ut in diúrnis áctibus
Nos servet a nocéntibus.
Linguam refrénans témperet,
Ne litis horror ínsonet:
Visum fovéndo cóntegat,
Ne vanitátes háuriat.
Sint pura cordis íntima,
Absístat et vecórdia;
Carnis terat supérbiam
Potus cibíque párcitas.
Ut, cum dies abscésserit,
Noctémque sors redúxerit,
Mundi per abstinéntiam
Ipsi canámus glóriam.
Glória tibi, Dómine,
Qui natus es de Vírgine,
Cum Patre, et Sancto Spíritu,
In sempitérna sǽcula.

Hymn {Doxology: NatT}
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 honor, praise and glory be,
O Jesu, Virgin-Born, to thee;
All glory, as is ever meet,
To Father, and to Paraclete.
Amen

118:2 Blessed are they that search his testimonies: * that seek him with their whole heart.
118:3 For they that work iniquity, * have not walked in his ways.
118:4 Thou hast commanded * thy commandments to be kept most diligently.
118:5 O! that my ways may be directed * to keep thy justifications.
118:6 Then shall I not be confounded, * when I shall look into all thy commandments.
118:7 I will praise thee with uprightness of heart, * when I shall have learned the judgments of thy justice.
118:8 I will keep thy justifications: * O! do not thou utterly forsake me.
118:9 (Béth) By what doth a young man correct his way? * By observing thy words.
118:10 With my whole heart have I sought after thee: * let me not stray from thy commandments.
118:11 Thy words have I hidden in my heart, * that I may not sin against thee.
118:12 Blessed art thou, O Lord: * teach me thy justifications.
118:13 With my lips * I have pronounced all the judgments of thy mouth.
118:14 I have been delighted in the way of thy testimonies, * as in all riches.
118:15 I will meditate on thy commandments: * and I will consider thy ways.
118:16 I will think of thy justifications: * I will not forget thy words.
℣. 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.

Martyrologium (anticip.)
September 12th 2019, the 13th day of the Moon, is commemorated the Holy Name of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the which Commemoration the Supreme Pontiff Innocent XI ordered to be made in thanksgiving for the famous victory gained over the Turks at Vienna, in Austria, under the protection of the same Blessed Virgin, (upon the aforesaid day, in the year 1683.)
Upon the (same) 12th day of September, were born into the better life:
At Alexandria, the holy martyrs Hieronides, Leontius, Serapion, Selesius, Valerian, and Straton, who, under the Emperor Maximin, were drowned in the sea for confessing Christ's Name.
In Bithynia, the holy martyr Bishop Autonomus. He fled thither from Italy to escape the persecution under the Emperor Diocletian, and when he had turned very many to the faith the raging Gentiles slew him at the Altar while he was celebrating the Holy Mysteries, whereby he himself became a sacrifice of Christ.
At Merus, in Phrygia, the holy martyrs Macedonius, Theodulus, and Tatian. The President Almachius, under the Emperor Julian the Apostate, after putting them to other torments, caused them to be stretched upon red-hot iron gratings, and thus with gladness they finished their testimony.
At Iconium, in Lycaonia, the holy martyr Curonotus, Bishop (of that see,) who was beheaded under the President Perennius, and so received the palm of martyrdom.
At Pavia, holy Juventius, Bishop (of that city,) of whom mention is made upon the 8th day of February. He was sent thither along with holy Syrus by the blessed Hermagoras, a disciple of the holy Evangelist Mark, and they both there preached the gospel of Christ, and shone forth with great graces and wonders, so that by the works of God they lighted up even the cities hard by, and fell asleep at last in the honour of their Bishophood, in glory and in peace.
At Lyon, (in the sixth century,) deceased the holy (Confessor) Sacerdos, Bishop (of that see.)
At Verona, holy Silvinus, Bishop (of that see.)
At Anderlecht, adjacent to the city of Brussels, in the Brabant (in the year 1012,) the holy Confessor Guy (the Palmer.)
℣. And elsewhere many other holy martyrs, confessors, and holy virgins.
℟. Thanks be to God.

Psalm 118(81-96) [1]
118:81 (Caph) My soul hath fainted after thy salvation: * and in thy word I have very much hoped.
118:82 My eyes have failed for thy word, * saying: When wilt thou comfort me?
118:83 For I am become like a bottle in the frost: * I have not forgotten thy justifications.
118:84 How many are the days of thy servant: * when wilt thou execute judgment on them that persecute me?

Hymnus {Doxology: NatT}
Rerum, Deus, tenax vigor,
Immótus in te pérmanens,
Lucis diúrnæ témpora
Succéssibus detérminans:
Largíre clarum véspere,
Quo vita nusquam décidat,
Sed prǽmium mortis sacræ
Perénnis instet glória.
Glória tibi, Dómine,
Qui natus es de Vírgine,
Cum Patre, et Sancto Spíritu,
In sempitérna sǽcula.
Amen.

Hymn {Doxology: NatT}
O strength and stay upholding all creation,
Who ever dost thyself unmoved abide,
Yet day by day the light in due gradation
From hour to hour through all its changes guide:
Grant to life’s day a calm unclouded ending,
An eve untouched by shadows of decay,
The brightness of a holy death-bed blending
With dawning glories of th’ eternal day.
All honor, praise and glory be,
O Jesu, Virgin-Born, to thee;
All glory, as is ever meet,
To Father, and to Paraclete.
Amen

118:157 Many are they that persecute me, and afflict me; * but I have not declined from thy testimonies.
118:158 I beheld the transgressors, and I pined away; * because they kept not thy word.

℟. Thanks be to God.
Hymn
The first verse of the following hymn is said genuflecting.
Ave, star of ocean,
Child divine who barest,
Mother, ever-Virgin,
Heaven's portal fairest.
Taking that sweet Ave
Erst by Gabriel spoken,
Eva's name reversing,
Be of peace the token.
Break the sinners' fetters,
Light to blind restoring,
All our ills dispelling,
Every boon imploring.
Show thyself a mother
In thy supplication;
He will hear who chose thee
At his incarnation.
Maid all maids excelling,
Passing meek and lowly,
Win for sinners pardon,
Make us chaste and holy.
As we onward journey
Aid our weak endeavour,
Till we gaze on Jesus
And rejoice forever.

Three in One confessing,
Give we equal glory
Equal praise and blessing.
Amen.

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 nightly fears and fantasies;
Tread under foot our ghostly foe,
That no pollution we may know.
All honor, praise and glory be,
O Jesu, Virgin-Born, to thee;
All glory, as is ever meet,
To Father, and to Paraclete.
Amen

Hail holy Queen, Mother of Mercy,
our life, our sweetness, and our hope.
To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve.
To thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping
In this valley of tears.
Turn then, most gracious Advocate,
thine eyes of mercy toward us.
And after this our exile show unto us
the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.

℟. That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

O almighty, everlasting God, who by the cooperation of the Holy Spirit, didst prepare the body and soul of Mary, glorious Virgin and Mother, to become a worthy dwelling for Thy Son; grant that we who rejoice in her commemoration may, by her gracious intercession, be delivered from present evils and from everlasting death. Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.

Ave María, grátia plena; Dóminus tecum: benedícta tu in muliéribus, et benedíctus fructus ventris tui Jesus. Sancta María, Mater Dei, ora pro nobis peccatóribus, nunc et in hora mortis nostræ. Amen.
Credo in Deum, Patrem omnipoténtem, Creatórem cæli et terræ. Et in Jesum Christum, Fílium ejus únicum, Dóminum nostrum: qui concéptus est de Spíritu Sancto, natus ex María Vírgine,
passus sub Póntio Piláto, crucifíxus, mórtuus, et sepúltus: descéndit ad ínferos; tértia die resurréxit a mórtuis; ascéndit ad cælos; sedet ad déxteram Dei Patris omnipoténtis: inde ventúrus est judicáre vivos et mórtuos. Credo in Spíritum Sanctum, sanctam Ecclésiam cathólicam,
Sanctórum communiónem, remissiónem peccatórum, carnis resurrectiónem, vitam ætérnam. Amen.

Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation: But deliver us from evil. Amen.
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
I believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth. And in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried: he descended into hell; the third day he arose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven; sitteth at the right hand of God the Father almighty: from thence he shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost, the holy catholic Church, the communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.
