Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam

From the Holy Gospel according to Luke

Luc 10:23-37

Luke 10:23-37

In illo témpore: Dixit Iesus discípulis suis: Beáti óculi qui vident quæ vos vidétis; dico enim vobis quod multi prophétæ et reges voluérunt vidére quæ vos vidétis, et non vidérunt. Et réliqua.

At that time, Jesus said unto His disciples: Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see. For I tell you that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them. And so on.

Homilía sancti Bedæ Venerábilis Presbýteri

Homily by the Venerable Bede, Priest at Jarrow.

Liber 3, cap. 43 in Lucæ 10

Bk. iii. ch. 43 on Luke x.

Non óculi scribárum et pharisæórum, qui corpus tantum Dómini vidére; sed illi beáti óculi, qui eius possunt cognóscere sacraménta, de quibus dícitur: Et revelásti ea párvulis. Beáti óculi parvulórum, quibus et se et Patrem Fílius reveláre dignátur. Abraham exsultávit ut vidéret diem Christi; et vidit, et gavísus est. Isaías quoque, et Michǽas, et multi álii prophétæ vidérunt glóriam Dómini, qui et proptérea Vidéntes sunt appelláti; sed hi omnes, a longe aspiciéntes et salutántes, per spéculum et in ænígmate vidérunt.

Blessed were the eyes not of Scribes and Pharisees, which saw but the Body of the Lord, but those eyes, eyes blessed indeed, which were able to see those things whereof it is written “Thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes.” Blessed are the eyes of those little ones unto whom it seemeth good in the eyes of the Son to reveal Himself and the Father also. Abraham rejoiced to see the day of Christ and he saw it, and was glad. John viii. 56. Isaiah, and Micah, and many among the Prophets, saw the glory of the Lord, wherefore also they be called Seers, but all they beheld it and hailed it afar off, seeing but as through a glass, darkly. 1 Cor. xiii. 12.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

Job 1:13-16

13 Cum autem quadam die fílii et fíliæ eius coméderent et bíberent vinum in domo fratris sui primogéniti,

13 Now upon a certain day when his sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in the house of their eldest brother,

14 Núntius venit ad Iob, qui díceret: Boves arábant et ásinæ pascebántur iuxta eos,

14 There came a messenger to Job, and said: The oxen were ploughing, and the asses feeding beside them,

15 Et irruérunt Sabǽi tulerúntque ómnia et púeros percussérunt gládio, et evási ego solus ut nuntiárem tibi.

15 And the Sabeans rushed in, and took all away, and slew the servants with the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell thee.

16 Cumque adhuc ille loquerétur, venit alter et dixit: Ignis Dei cécidit e cælo, et tactas oves puerósque consúmpsit, et effúgi ego solus ut nuntiárem tibi.

16 And while he was yet speaking, another came, and said: The fire of God fell from heaven, and striking the sheep and the servants, hath consumed them, and I alone have escaped to tell thee.

17 And while he also was yet speaking, there came another, and said: The Chaldeans made three troops, and have fallen upon the camels, and taken them, moreover they have slain the servants with the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell thee.

18 Adhuc loquebátur ille, et ecce álius intrávit, et dixit: Fíliis tuis et filiábus vescéntibus et bibéntibus vinum in domo fratris sui primogéniti,

18 He was yet speaking, and behold another came in, and said: thy sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in the house of their elder brother:

19 Repénte ventus véhemens írruit a regióne desérti, et concússit quátuor ángulos domus, quæ córruens oppréssit líberos tuos, et mórtui sunt, et effúgi ego solus ut nuntiárem tibi.

20 Then Job rose up, and rent his garments, and having shaven his head fell down upon the ground and worshipped,

21 Et dixit: Nudus egréssus sum de útero matris meæ et nudus revértar illuc. Dóminus dedit, Dóminus ábstulit; sicut Dómino plácuit, ita factum est: sit nomen Dómini benedíctum.

21 And said: Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away: as it hath pleased the Lord so is it done: blessed be the name of the Lord.

Stéphanus, Hungarórum rex, in Hungáriam Christi fidem et régium nomen invéxit. Régia coróna a Románo Pontífice impetráta, eiúsque iussu rex inúnctus, regnum Sedi apostólicæ óbtulit. Vária pietátis domicília Romæ, Ierosólymis, Constantinópoli constítuit: in Hungária archiepiscopátum Strigoniénsem et episcopátus decem admirábili religióne et munificéntia fundávit. Exímia in páuperes caritáte et assíduo orándi stúdio enítuit. Dei Genetrícem quam ardentíssime venerabátur, amplíssimo in eius honórem constrúcto templo, Hungáriæ patrónam instítuit; ab eádem vicíssim Vírgine recéptus in cælum ipso suæ Assumptiónis die, quem Húngari e sancti Regis institúto Magnæ Dóminæ diem appéllant. Eius tamen festum ex constitutióne Innocéntii Papæ undécimi hac die potíssimum recólitur, quæ Budæ munitíssima arx, sancti Regis ope, ab exércitu christiáno strénue recuperáta fuit.

Stephen, King of Hungary, brought the faith of Christ and the title of kingdom to his country. He obtained his royal crown from the Pope, and, when he had been anointed King at the Pope's command, he offered his kingdom to the Apostolic See. He founded various religious houses at Rome, at Jerusalem, and at Constantinople. In Hungary, with wonderful devotion and generosity, he established the archiepiscopal See of Esztergom and ten other bishoprics. He was famous for his great love of the poor and his constancy in prayer. He ardently venerated the Mother of God, declaring her the Patroness of Hungary and building a very large church in her honour. In turn, he was received into heaven by the Virgin on the Feast of her Assumption, which in Hungary, by edict of the Holy King, was called the Day of the Great Lady. By decree of Pope Innocent XI, however, the Feast of this saintly King is kept on the day on which, with his help, the Christian army, in a hard-fought engagement, recovered the strongly fortified citadel of Buda.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

Tértio Nonas Septémbris Luna quinta Anno Dómini 2030

On the morrow is commemorated at Rome the holy Virgin Serapia. Under the Emperor Hadrian she was given over to two young rakes, but they could not deflower her. Neither could she afterwards be burnt with torches, wherefore, by the command of the judge Berillus, she was cudgelled and then beheaded with the sword. She suffered upon the 29th day of July, and was buried by blessed Sabina in her own sepulchre hard by the threshing-floor of Vindician. But the memory of her martyrdom is kept the most chiefly upon the 3rd day of September, when the stone coffin of Sabina and of herself was there set in order and adorned, and the place of prayer was meetly dedicated.

Iob 2:1-5

Job 2:1-5

1 Factum est autem, cum quadam die veníssent fílii Dei et starent coram Dómino, venísset quoque Satan inter eos et staret in conspéctu eius,

1 And it came to pass, when on a certain day the sons of God came, and stood before the Lord, and Satan came among them, and stood in his sight,

2 Ut díceret Dóminus ad Satan: Unde venis? Qui respóndens ait: Circuívi terram et perambulávi eam.

2 That the Lord said to Satan: Whence comest thou? And he answered and said: I have gone round about the earth, and walked through it.

3 Et dixit Dóminus ad Satan: Numquid considerásti servum meum Iob, quod non sit ei símilis in terra, vir simplex et rectus ac timens Deum et recédens a malo et adhuc rétinens innocéntiam? Tu autem commovísti me advérsus eum, ut afflígerem eum frustra.

3 And the Lord said to Satan: Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a man simple, and upright, and fearing God, and avoiding evil, and still keeping his innocence. But thou hast moved me against him, that I should afflict him without cause.

4 Cui respóndens Satan ait: Pellem pro pelle, et cuncta, quæ habet homo, dabit pro ánima sua.

4 And Satan answered, and said: Skin for skin, and all that a man hath he will give for his life:

5 Alióqui mitte manum tuam, et tange os eius et carnem; et tunc vidébis quod in fáciem benedícat tibi.

5 But put forth thy hand, and touch his bone and his flesh, and then thou shalt see that he will bless thee to thy face.

℟. My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust. My skin is dry and drawn together.

* Meménto mei, Dómine, quóniam ventus est vita mea.

* Remember me, O Lord, for my life is wind.

℣. Dies mei velócius transiérunt quam a texénte tela succíditur, et consúmpti sunt absque ulla spe.

℣. My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, and are spent without hope.

℟. Meménto mei, Dómine, quóniam ventus est vita mea.

Iob 2:6-10

Job 2:6-10

6 Dixit ergo Dóminus ad Satan: Ecce in manu tua est, verúmtamen ánimam illíus serva.

6 And the Lord said to Satan: Behold he is in thy hand, but yet save his life.

7 Egréssus ígitur Satan a fácie Dómini percússit Iob úlcere péssimo a planta pedis usque ad vérticem eius;

7 So Satan went forth from the presence of the Lord, and struck Job with a very grievous ulcer, from the sole of the foot even to the top of his head:

8 Qui testa sániem radébat sedens in sterquilínio.

8 And he took a potsherd and scraped the corrupt matter, sitting on a dunghill.

9 Dixit autem illi uxor sua: Adhuc tu pérmanes in simplicitáte tua? Bénedic Deo et mórere.

9 And his wife said to him: Dost thou still continue in thy simplicity? Bless God and die.

10 Qui ait ad illam: Quasi una de stultis muliéribus locúta es: si bona suscépimus de manu Dei, mala quare non suscipiámus? In ómnibus his non peccávit Iob lábiis suis.

10 And he said to her: Thou hast; spoken like one of the foolish women: if we have received good things at the hand of God, why should we not receive evil? In all these things Job did not sin with his lips.

Iob 2:11-13

Job 2:11-13

11 Igitur audiéntes tres amíci Iob omne malum quod accidísset ei, venérunt sínguli de loco suo, Eliphaz Themanítes et Baldad Suhítes et Sophar Naamathítes. Condíxerant enim ut páriter veniéntes visitárent eum et consolaréntur.

11 Now when Job's three friends heard all the evil that had befallen him, they came every one from his own place, Alphas the Themanite, and Baldad the Suhite, and Sophar the Naamathite. For they had made an appointment to come together and visit him, and comfort him.

12 Cumque elevássent procul óculos suos, non cognovérunt eum et exclamántes ploravérunt, scissísque véstibus, sparsérunt púlverem super caput suum in cælum.

12 And when they had lifted up their eyes afar off, they knew him not, and crying out they wept, and rending their garments they sprinkled dust upon their heads towards heaven.

13 Et sedérunt cum eo in terra septem diébus et septem nóctibus, et nemo loquebátur ei verbum; vidébant enim dolórem esse veheméntem.

13 And they sat with him on the ground seven days and seven nights, and no man spoke to him a word: for they saw that his grief was very great.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

Pius Papa décimus, cui nomen ántea Ioséphus Sarto, in Venetórum pago, quem Riése vocant, natus est. Inter Seminárii Patavíni alúmnos adscríptus ac sacerdótio auctus, in óppido Tómbolo primum qua vicárius cooperátor, dein Salatiáni qua párochus, et Tarvísii qua canónicus et Cúriæ episcopális cancellárius, simúlque tanta excélluit, ut eum Leo décimus tértius ecclésiæ Mantuánæ præfécerit. Boni pastóris nullam partem déserens, iuventúti in sortem Dómini vocátæ rite instituéndæ máxime adlaborávit; divíni cultus decórem et piárum consociatiónum increménta promóvit; páuperum inópiæ effúsa caritáte prospéxit. Tot suffragántibus méritis, inter purpurátos Patres adléctus et Venetiárum Patriárcha creátus est. Post Leónis décimi tértii óbitum, cum Patrum Cardinálium suffrágia in eum coaléscerent, frustra relúctans, Summum Pontificátum ut crucem suscépit. In Petri cáthedra constitútus, nihil de prístina vitæ ratióne remísit. Humilitáte præsértim, simplicitáte ac paupertáte refúlsit. Ecclésiam fírmiter rexit et præclaríssimis ornávit institútis. Fídei vigilantíssimus custos, modernísmum, ómnium hǽresum summam, damnávit ac protrívit; ecclesiásticæ libertátis vindex acérrimus, iis qui eam labefactáre conabántur, fórtiter óbstitit; sólidæ cleri institutióni provídit; leges Ecclésiæ in unum corpus redégit; cultum erga Eucharístiam et crebriórem eiúsdem usum máxime provéxit. Labóribus fractus ac mæróre conféctus ob bellum Europǽum tunc exórtum, die vicésima mensis augústi anni millésimi nongentésimi décimi quarti, ad cæléstem pátriam evolávit. Eum Pius duodécimus in Sanctórum númerum rétulit.

Pope Pius X, whose name previously was Joseph Sarto, was born in the village of Riese in the Venetian province. He enrolled among the students in the seminary of Padua and, when he had been ordained priest, was first curate in the town of Tombolo, then pastor at Salzano, then canon and chancellor of the bishop's curia at Treviso. He was so outstanding in holiness that Leo XIII made him bishop of the Church of Mantua. Lacking in nothing that maketh a good pastor, he laboured particularly to teach young men called to the priesthood; he fostered the beauty of divine worship and the growth of devout associations; he saw to the needs of the poor with generous charity. Because of his great merits, he was made a cardinal and created Patriarch of Venice. After the death of Pope Leo XIII he took up the supreme pontificate as a cross, having refused it in vain. Placed upon the chair of Peter, he gave up nothing of his former way of life. He shone especially in humility, simplicity and poverty. He ruled the Church firmly and adorned it with brilliant teachings. As a most vigilant guardian of the Faith, he condemned and suppressed Modernism, the sum of all heresies; as a most zealous defender of the freedom of the Church, he boldly resisted those who strove to bring about her downfall; he provided for the sound education of clerics, brought the laws of the Church together into one body; and greatly fostered the cult and more frequent reception of the Eucharist. Worn out with his labours and overcome with grief at the European war which had just begun, he went to his heavenly home on August 20th in the year 1914. Pope Pius XII numbered him among the Saints.

Psalm 51 [2]

51:3 Quid gloriáris in malítia, * qui potens es in iniquitáte?

51:3 Why dost thou glory in malice, * thou that art mighty in iniquity?

51:4 Tota die iniustítiam cogitávit lingua tua: * sicut novácula acúta fecísti dolum.

51:4 All the day long thy tongue hath devised injustice: * as a sharp razor, thou hast wrought deceit.

51:5 Dilexísti malítiam super benignitátem: * iniquitátem magis quam loqui æquitátem.

51:5 Thou hast loved malice more than goodness: * and iniquity rather than to speak righteousness.

51:6 Dilexísti ómnia verba præcipitatiónis, * lingua dolósa.

51:6 Thou hast loved all the words of ruin, * O deceitful tongue.

51:7 Proptérea Deus déstruet te in finem, * evéllet te, et emigrábit te de tabernáculo tuo: et radícem tuam de terra vivéntium.

51:7 Therefore will God destroy thee for ever: * he will pluck thee out, and remove thee from thy dwelling place: and thy root out of the land of the living.

51:8 The just shall see and fear, and shall laugh at him, and say: * Behold the man that made not God his helper:

51:9 Sed sperávit in multitúdine divitiárum suárum: * et præváluit in vanitáte sua.

51:9 But trusted in the abundance of his riches: * and prevailed in his vanity.

51:10 Ego autem, sicut olíva fructífera in domo Dei, * sperávi in misericórdia Dei in ætérnum: et in sǽculum sǽculi.

52:4 All have gone aside, they are become unprofitable together, * there is none that doth good, no not one.

52:5 Nonne scient omnes qui operántur iniquitátem, * qui dévorant plebem meam ut cibum panis?

52:5 Shall not all the workers of iniquity know, * who eat up my people as they eat bread?

52:6 Deum non invocavérunt: * illic trepidavérunt timóre, ubi non erat timor.

52:6 They have not called upon God: * there have they trembled for fear, where there was no fear.

52:6 Quóniam Deus dissipávit ossa eórum qui homínibus placent: * confúsi sunt, quóniam Deus sprevit eos.

52:6 For God hath scattered the bones of them that please men: * they have been confounded, because God hath despised them.

52:7 Quis dabit ex Sion salutáre Israël? * cum convérterit Deus captivitátem plebis suæ, exsultábit Iacob, et lætábitur Israël.

Afterwards, under Nerva-Trajan, he was sent, along with other servants of God, to Cutilia, where there is a pool of stinking sulphurous waters, and where the judge Aurelian ordered him to be hung up with his head downwards this torment he suffered for the space of three days, for Christ's name's sake, and then departed in triumph, gloriously crowned to be ever with the Lord. The Christians carried off his hody, and buried it honourably at Amiternum.

Romæ, in suburbáno, beáti Victoríni, Epíscopi et Mártyris; qui, sanctitáte et miráculis clarus, sacerdótium Amiternínæ urbis, totíus pópuli electióne, adéptus est. Póstmodum, sub Nerva Traiáno, apud Cutílias, ubi puténtes et sulphúreæ emánant aquæ, cum áliis Dei servis, relegátus, ab Aureliáno Iúdice iussus est suspéndi cápite deórsum; idque cum per tríduum pro nómine Christi passus fuísset, tandem, glorióse coronátus, victor migrávit ad Dóminum. Eius corpus rapuérunt Christiáni, et honorífica sepultúra Amitérni, in Vestínis, condidérunt.

Job 4:1-6

1 Respóndens autem Eliphaz Themanítes, dixit:

1 Then Eliphaz the Themanite answered, and said:

2 Si cœpérimus loqui tibi, fórsitan moléste accípies; sed concéptum sermónem tenére quis póterit?

2 If we begin to speak to thee, perhaps thou wilt take it ill, but who can withhold the words he hath conceived?

3 Ecce docuísti multos et manus lassas roborásti,

3 Behold thou hast taught many, and thou hast strengthened the weary hands:

4 Vacillántes confirmavérunt sermónes tui et génua treméntia confortásti.

4 Thy words have confirmed them that were staggering, and thou hast strengthened the trembling knees:

5 Nunc autem venit super te plaga, et defecísti; tétigit te, et conturbátus es.

5 But now the scourge is come upon thee, and thou faintest: it hath touched thee, and thou art troubled.

6 Ubi est timor tuus, fortitúdo tua, patiéntia tua et perféctio viárum tuárum?

8 On the contrary I have seen those who work iniquity, and sow sorrows, and reap them,

9 Flante Deo perísse et spíritu iræ eius esse consúmptos.

10 Rugítus leónis et vox leǽnæ et dentes catulórum leónum contríti sunt;

Job 4:12-18

12 Porro ad me dictum est verbum abscónditum, et quasi furtíve suscépit auris mea venas susúrri eius.

13 In horróre visiónis noctúrnæ, quando solet sopor occupáre hómines,

13 In the horror of a vision by night, when deep sleep is wont to hold men,

14 Pavor ténuit me et tremor, et ómnia ossa mea pertérrita sunt,

15 Et cum spíritus, me præsénte, transíret, inhorruérunt pili carnis meæ.

15 And when a spirit passed before me, the hair of my flesh stood up.

16 Stetit quidam, cuius non agnoscébam vultum, imágo coram óculis meis, et vocem quasi auræ lenis audívi:

16 There stood one whose countenance I knew not, an image before my eyes, and I heard the voice as it were of a gentle wind:

17 Numquid homo Dei comparatióne iustificábitur? aut Factóre suo púrior erit vir?

17 Shall man be justified in comparison of God, or shall a man be more pure than his maker?

18 Ecce qui sérviunt ei, non sunt stábiles, et in Angelis suis réperit pravitátem.

Lauréntius, ex illústri Iustinianórum família Venétiis natus, miro affligéndi córporis stúdio ab adolescéntia cláruit, et, mundi illécebris paratísque a matre núptiis spretis, in congregatiónem canonicórum sancti Geórgii in Alga recéptus est. Ab Eugénio quarto pátriæ epíscopus renuntiátus, consuéta vivéndi forma nihil ádmodum immutáta, páuperum necessitátes subleváre, étiam ære se aliéno gravans, nunquam déstitit, divínæ fidens providéntiæ, quæ inopinátis subsídiis illi semper ádfuit. Plura vírginum monastéria excitávit, vel ad perfectióris vitæ normas compósuit. Christiánæ humilitátis exémplar exímium, ecclesiásticæ disciplínæ ac móribus reformándis maximópere stúduit, dignus, qui a summis Pontifícibus glória prǽsulum vocarétur, et primus Venetiárum patriárcha, e Gradénsi civitáte transláto título, renuntiarétur. Lacrimárum, prophetíæ, et curatiónum dono insígnis, libros étiam cælésti doctrína ac pietáte conspícuos, grammáticæ pene rudis, conscrípsit. Obdormívit in Dómino die octáva ianuárii. Eius vero festum hac die recólitur, qua vir Dei ad episcopálem cáthedram evéctus est.

Born at Venice of the illustrious family of the Giustiniani, from his youth Lawrence was disinguished for his wonderful zeal in chastising his body. He scorned the pleasures of the world and the marriage his mother had arranged for him, and was received among the Canons of St. George's-in-Alga. He was appointed Bishop of his own city by Eugene IV and changed nothing in his way of life; he never ceased relieving the needs of the poor, even borrowing money to do so, trusting in divine Providence, which always gave him aid in an unexpected way. He founded many monasteries of nuns or established them in a more perfect way of life. He was an outstanding example of Christian humility and was particularly zealous for the reform of ecclesiastical discipline and habits. He deserved the title given him by the Popes, the Glory of the Episcopate, and was named first Patriarch of Venice, the title having been transferred from the city of Grado. Famous for the gift of tears, of prophecy, and of healing, he also wrote books outstanding for heavenly teaching and devotion, though he had little training in composition. He fell asleep in the Lord on the 8th of January, but his Feast is celebrated on the day on which the man of God was raised to the episcopal chair.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

72:12 Ecce, ipsi peccatóres, et abundántes in sǽculo, * obtinuérunt divítias.

72:24 Tenuísti manum déxteram meam: et in voluntáte tua deduxísti me, * et cum glória suscepísti me.

72:24 Thou hast held me by my right hand; and by thy will thou hast conducted me, * and with thy glory thou hast received me.

72:25 Quid enim mihi est in cælo? * et a te quid vólui super terram?

72:25 For what have I in heaven? * and besides thee what do I desire upon earth?

72:26 Defécit caro mea, et cor meum: * Deus cordis mei, et pars mea Deus in ætérnum.

72:26 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.

72:27 Quia ecce, qui elóngant se a te, períbunt: * perdidísti omnes, qui fornicántur abs te.

72:27 For behold they that go far from thee shall perish: * thou hast destroyed all them that are disloyal to thee.

De libro Iob

Lesson from the book of Job

Iob 7:1-4

Job 7:1-4

1 Milítia est vita hóminis super terram, et sicut dies mercenárii, dies eius.

1 The life of man upon earth is a warfare, and his days are like the days of a hireling.

2 Sicut servus desíderat umbram, et sicut mercenárius præstolátur finem óperis sui,

2 As a servant longeth for the shade, as the hireling looketh for the end of his work;

3 Sic et ego hábui menses vácuos et noctes laboriósas enumerávi mihi.

3 So I also have had empty months, and have numbered to myself wearisome nights.

4 Si dormíero, dicam: Quando consúrgam? Et rursum exspectábo vésperam, et replébor dolóribus usque ad ténebras.

4 If I lie down to sleep, I shall say: When shall I arise? and again I shall look for the evening, and shall be filled with sorrows even till darkness.

* Et constítuas mihi tempus, in quo recordéris mei?

* That Thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me!

℣. Numquid sicut dies hóminis dies tui, ut quæras iniquitátem meam; cum sit nemo, qui de manu tua possit erúere.

Job 7:5-8

5 Indúta est caro mea putrédine, et sórdibus púlveris cutis mea áruit et contrácta est.

5 My flesh is clothed with rottenness and the filth of dust, my skin is withered and drawn together.

6 Dies mei velócius transiérunt quam a texénte tela succíditur, et consúmpti sunt absque ulla spe.

6 My days have passed more swiftly than the web is cut by the weaver, and are consumed without any hope.

7 Meménto quia ventus est vita mea, et non revertétur óculus meus ut vídeat bona.

7 Remember that my life is but wind, and my eyes shall not return to see good things.

9 Sicut consúmitur nubes, et pertránsit, sic qui descénderit ad ínferos non ascéndet;

10 Nec revertétur ultra in domum suam, neque cognóscet eum ámplius locus eius.

10 Nor shall he return any more into his house, neither shall his place know him any more.

11 Quaprópter et ego non parcam ori meo; loquar in tribulatióne spíritus mei, confabulábor cum amaritúdine ánimæ meæ.

11 Wherefore I will not spare my month, I will speak in the affliction of my spirit: I will talk with the bitterness of my soul.

Ex Epístola sancti Leónis Papæ ad Pulchériam Augústam

From the epistle of Pope St. Leo to Pulcheria Augusta

Epist. 13, ante medium

Epistle 13 in the first half

Sacraméntum reconcilatiónis nostræ, ante témpora ætérna dispósitum, nullæ implébant figúræ; quia nondum supervénerat Spíritus Sanctus in Vírginem nec virtus Altíssimi obumbráverat ei, ut, et intra intemeráta víscera, ædificánte sibi Sapiéntia domum, Verbum caro fíeret, et, forma Dei ac forma servi in unam conveniénte persónam, Creátor témporum nascerétur in témpore, et, per quem facta sunt ómnia, ipse inter ómnia gignerétur. Nisi enim novus homo, factus in similitúdinem carnis peccáti, nostram suscíperet vetustátem, et, consubstantiális Patri, consubstantiális esse dignarétur et matri, naturámque sibi nostram solus a peccáto liber uníret; sub iugo diáboli generáliter tenerétur humána captívas.

And the fulfillment of the mystery of our atonement, which was ordained from all eternity, was not assisted by any figures because the Holy Spirit had not yet come upon the Virgin, and the power of the Most High had not over-shadowed her: so that Wisdom building herself a house within her undefiled body, the Word became flesh; and the form of God and the form of a slave coming together into one person, the Creator of times was born in time; and He Himself through whom all things were made, was brought forth in the midst of all things. For if the New Man had not been made in the likeness of sinful flesh, and taken on Him our old nature, and being consubstantial with the Father, had deigned to be consubstantial with His mother also, and being alone free from sin, had united our nature to Him the whole human race would be held in bondage beneath the Devil's yoke.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam

From the Holy Gospel according to Luke

Luc 17:11-19

Luke 17:11-19

In illo témpore: Dum iret Iesus in Ierúsalem, transíbat per médiam Samaríam et Galilǽam. Et cum ingrederétur quoddam castéllum, occurrérunt ei decem viri leprósi. Et réliqua.

It came to pass, as Jesus went to Jerusalem, that He passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. And, as He entered into a certain village, there met Him ten men that were lepers. And so on.

Homilía sancti Augustíni Epíscopi

Homily by St. Augustine, Bishop of Hippo

Lib. 2 quæst. Evang. cap. 40

Bk. ii, Gospel Questions, ch. 40

De decem leprósis, quos Dóminus ita mundávit, cum ait: Ite, osténdite vos sacerdótibus; quæri potest, cur eos ad sacerdótes míserit, ut cum irent, mundaréntur. Nullum enim eórum, quibus hæc corporália benefícia prǽstitit, invenítur misísse ad sacerdótes, nisi leprósos. Nam et illum a lepra mundáverat, cui dixit: Vade, osténde te sacerdótibus, et offer pro te sacrifícium, quod præcépit Móyses, in testimónium illis. Quæréndum ígitur est, quid ipsa lepra signíficet: non enim sanáti, sed mundáti dicúntur, qui ea caruérunt. Colóris quippe vítium est, non valetúdinis, aut integritátis sénsuum atque membrórum.

The ten lepers “lifted up their voices and said: Jesus, Master, have mercy on us. And when He saw them, He said unto them: Go, show yourselves unto the Priests. And it came to pass that, as they went, they were cleansed.” Question: why did the Lord send them unto the Priests, that, as they went, they might be cleansed? Lepers were the only class among those upon whose bodies He worked mercy, whom we find that He sent unto the Priests. It is written in another place that He said to a leper whom He had cleansed: “Go, and show thyself to the Priest, and offer for thy cleansing according as Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them” Luke v. 14, Lev. xiv. seq. We ask then, of what leprosy was a type, whereof they that were ridded were called, not “healed,” but “cleansed.” It is a disease which doth first appear in the skin, but destroyeth not immediately the strength, nor the use of feeling and the limbs.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℟. Deo grátias.

38:12 And thou hast made his soul to waste away like a spider: * surely in vain is any man disquieted.

Nicoláus, Tolentínas a diutúrno illíus civitátis domicílio appellátus, in óppido sancti Angeli in Picéno natus est piis paréntibus, qui illum ex voto, sancti Nicolái intercessióne, a Deo impetrárunt. Puer, multárum virtútum, abstinéntiæ in primis, spécimen dedit. Clericáli milítiæ dein adscríptus et canónicus factus, cum quodam die concionatórem órdinis Eremitárum sancti Augustíni de mundi contémptu dicéntem audísset, eo sermóne inflammátus, statim eúndem órdinem est ingréssus; in quo tam exáctam religiósæ vitæ ratiónem cóluit, ut ieiúnio, rudi vestítu, verbéribus et áspera caténa corpus domáret, atque ómnibus áliis virtútibus prælucéret. Orándi assíduum stúdium, quamvis sátanæ insídiis várie vexátus et flagéllis intérdum cæsus, non intermittébat. Sex ante óbitum ménsibus, síngulis nóctibus angélicum concéntum audívit, et tandem, óbitus die prænuntiáto, obdormívit in Dómino. Miráculis in vita et post mortem clarus, ab Eugénio quarto in Sanctórum númerum relátus est.

Nicholas, called of Tolentino because he lived for a long time in that city, was born in the town of Sant'Angelo in Ancona of devout parents who obtained him from God by prayer and the intercession of St. Nicholas. The boy gave evidence of many virtues, especially of abstinence. He was enrolled in the ranks of the clergy and was made a canon. One day he heard a preacher of the Order of Hermits of St. Augustine preaching on the contempt of the world, and, fired by this sermon, he at once entered the same Order. Here he carried out the rule of the religious life so strictly that by fasting, rough clothing, scourging and chains he conquered his body and was outstanding in all other virtues. He never slackened in his constant zeal for prayer, even though he was tormented in various ways by the wiles of the devil, who sometimes even dealt him blows. Each night for six months before his death, he heard angelic melodies; and at length, having foretold the day of his death, he fell asleep in the Lord. He was famous for miracles both before and after his death, and was enrolled among the Saints by Eugene IV.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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?

2 For what part should God from above have in me, and what inheritance the Almighty from on high?

3 Numquid non perdítio est iníquo, et alienátio operántibus iniustítiam?

4 Nonne ipse consíderat vias meas, et cunctos gressus meos dinúmerat?

4 Doth not he consider my ways, and number all my steps?

5 Si ambulávi in vanitáte, et festinávit in dolo pes meus,

℣. Numquid sicut dies hóminis dies tui, ut quæras iniquitátem meam; cum sit nemo, qui de manu tua possit erúere.

Venerábile Vírginis Maríæ nomen, quod interpretátum maris stella dícitur, Matri Vírgini valde conveniénter aptátur. Ipsa namque aptíssime síderi comparátur, quia, sicut sine sui corruptióne sidus suum emíttit rádium, sic absque sui læsióne Virgo parturívit Fílium. Nec síderi rádius suam mínuit claritátem, nec Vírgini Fílius suam integritátem. Ipsa est ígitur nóbilis illa stella ex Iacob orta, super hoc mare magnum et spatiósum necessário subleváta, micans méritis, illústrans exémplis. O quisquis te intéllegis in huius sǽculi proflúvio magis inter procéllas et tempestátes fluctuáre, quam per terram ambuláre, ne avértas óculos a fulgóre huius síderis. Maríam cógita, Maríam ínvoca, ut sic in temetípso experiáris, quam mérito dictum sit: Et nomen Vírginis María. - Quod quidem dulcíssimum nomen, iamprídem in quibúsdam christiáni orbis pártibus speciáli ritu cultum, Innocéntius undécimus Románus Póntifex, ob insígnem victóriam de immaníssimo Turcárum tyránno, cervícibus pópuli christiáni insultánte, Viénnæ in Austria partam, et in perénne tanti benefícii monuméntum, in Ecclésia universáli síngulis annis celebrári præcépit.

The honoured name of the Virgin Mary, which is said to mean Star of the Sea, is most fitting for the Virgin Mother. She may well be compared to a star; for, as a star beameth forth its rays without any diminution of its own lustre, so too the Virgin gave birth to a Son with no loss to her virginity. The departing rays do not lessen the star's brightness, nor Mary's Son her ínviolate maidenhood. She is, therefore, that noble star risen from Jacob and raised by nature above this great and wide sea. She shineth with merits, she enlighteneth with her example. Ye, all ye that are cast about upon sea of temporalities in storms and tempests more than ye walk on solid land, turn ye not your eyes away from the brightness of this star. Think of Mary, call on Mary, so that ye may experience for yourself how fittingly it was said, And the Virgin's name was Mary. - Pope Innocent XI ordered the Feast of this most holy name, which had already been honoured with a special rite in some parts of the Christian world, to be celebrated each year by the universal Church as a perpetual memorial of the great blessing of that signal victory won at Vienna in Austria over the cruel Turkish tyrant who had been grinding down the Christian people.

72:18 But indeed for deceits thou hast put it to them: * when they were lifted up, thou hast cast them down.

72:19 Quómodo facti sunt in desolatiónem, súbito defecérunt: * periérunt propter iniquitátem suam.

72:19 How are they brought to desolation? they have suddenly ceased to be: * they have perished by reason of their iniquity.

72:20 Velut sómnium surgéntium, Dómine, * in civitáte tua imáginem ipsórum ad níhilum rédiges.

72:20 As the dream of them that awake, O Lord; * so in thy city thou shalt bring their image to nothing.

72:21 Quia inflammátum est cor meum, et renes mei commutáti sunt: * et ego ad níhilum redáctus sum, et nescívi.

72:21 For my heart hath been inflamed, and my reins have been changed: * and I am brought to nothing, and I knew not.

72:23 Ut iuméntum factus sum apud te: * et ego semper tecum.

72:23 I am become as a beast before thee: * and I am always with thee.

72:24 Tenuísti manum déxteram meam: et in voluntáte tua deduxísti me, * et cum glória suscepísti me.

72:24 Thou hast held me by my right hand; and by thy will thou hast conducted me, * and with thy glory thou hast received me.

72:25 Quid enim mihi est in cælo? * et a te quid vólui super terram?

72:25 For what have I in heaven? * and besides thee what do I desire upon earth?

72:26 Defécit caro mea, et cor meum: * Deus cordis mei, et pars mea Deus in ætérnum.

72:26 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.

72:27 Quia ecce, qui elóngant se a te, períbunt: * perdidísti omnes, qui fornicántur abs te.

72:27 For behold they that go far from thee shall perish: * thou hast destroyed all them that are disloyal to thee.

72:28 Mihi autem adhærére Deo bonum est: * pónere in Dómino Deo spem meam:

72:28 But it is good for me to adhere to my God, * to put my hope in the Lord God:

72:28 Ut annúntiem omnes prædicatiónes tuas, * in portis fíliæ Sion.

72:28 That I may declare all thy praises, * in the gates of the daughter of Sion.

77:18 Et tentavérunt Deum in córdibus suis, * ut péterent escas animábus suis.

77:18 And they tempted God in their hearts, * by asking meat for their desires.

77:19 Et male locúti sunt de Deo: * dixérunt: Numquid póterit Deus paráre mensam in desérto?

77:19 And they spoke ill of God: * they said: Can God furnish a table in the wilderness?

77:20 Quóniam percússit petram, et fluxérunt aquæ: * et torréntes inundavérunt.

77:20 Because he struck the rock, and the waters gushed out, * and the streams overflowed.

77:20 Numquid et panem póterit dare, * aut paráre mensam pópulo suo?

77:20 Can he also give bread, * or provide a table for his people?

77:21 Ídeo audívit Dóminus, et dístulit: * et ignis accénsus est in Iacob, et ira ascéndit in Israël.

77:38 Ipse autem est miséricors, et propítius fiet peccátis eórum: * et non dispérdet eos.

77:38 Et abundávit ut avérteret iram suam: * et non accéndit omnem iram suam:

77:38 And many a time did he turn away his anger: * and did not kindle all his wrath.

77:39 Et recordátus est quia caro sunt: * spíritus vadens et non rédiens.

77:39 And he remembered that they are flesh: * a wind that goeth and returneth not.

77:40 Quóties exacerbavérunt eum in desérto, * in iram concitavérunt eum in inaquóso?

78:1 O God, the heathens are come into thy inheritance, they have defiled thy holy temple: * they have made Jerusalem as a place to keep fruit.

78:3 They have poured out their blood as water, round about Jerusalem, * and there was none to bury them.

Num 21:6-9

Num 21:6-9

6 Ad quorum plagas et mortes plurimórum

6 The serpents bit them and killed many of them.

7 Venérunt ad Móysen atque dixérunt: Peccávimus, quia locúti sumus contra Dóminum et te: ora ut tollat a nobis serpéntes. Oravítque Móyses pro pópulo.

7 Upon which they came to Moses, and said: We have sinned, because we have spoken against the Lord and thee: pray that he may take away these serpents from us. And Moses prayed for the people.

8 Et locútus est Dóminus ad eum: Fac serpéntem ǽneum et pone eum pro signo: qui percússus aspéxerit eum, vivet.

8 And the Lord said to him: Make a brazen serpent, and set it up for a sign: whosoever being struck shall look on it, shall live.

9 Fecit ergo Móyses serpéntem ǽneum et pósuit eum pro signo; quem cum percússi aspícerent, sanabántur.

9 Moses therefore made a brazen serpent, and set it up for a sign: which when they that were bitten looked upon, they were healed.

Chósroas, Persárum rex, extrémis Phocæ impérii tempóribus, Ægýpto et Africa occupáta ac Ierosólyma capta multísque ibi cæsis Christianórum míllibus, Christi Dómini Crucem, quam Hélena in monte Calváriæ collocárat, in Pérsidem ábstulit. Itaque Heraclíus, qui Phocæ succésserat, multis belli incómmodis et calamitátibus afféctus, pacem petébat; quam a Chósroa, victóriis insolénte, ne iníquis quidem conditiónibus impetráre póterat. Quare in summo discrímine se assíduis ieiúniis et oratiónibus exércens, opem a Deo veheménter implorábat; cuius mónitu exércitu comparáto, signa cum hoste cóntulit, ac tres duces Chósroæ cum tribus exercítibus superávit.

Chosroes of Persia, having, in the last days of the reign of the Emperor Phocas, overrun Egypt and Africa, in 614, took Jerusalem, where he slaughtered thousands of Christians and carried off to Persia the Cross of the Lord, which Helen had put upon Mount Calvary. Heraclius, the successor of Phocas, moved by the thought of the hardships and horrid outrages of war, sought for peace, but Chosroes, drunken with conquest, would not allow of it even upon unfair terms. Heraclius therefore, being set in this uttermost strait, earnestly sought help from God by constant fasting and prayer, and through His good inspiration gathered an army, joined battle with the enemy, and prevailed against three of Chosroes' chief captains, and three armies.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

Quibus cládibus fractus Chósroas, in fuga, qua traícere Tigrim parábat, Medársen fílium sócium regni desígnat. Sed eam contuméliam cum Síroës, Chósroæ maior natu fílius, ferret atróciter, patri simul et fratri necem machinátur; quam paulo post utríque ex fuga retrácto áttulit, regnúmque ab Heraclío impetrávit quibúsdam accéptis conditiónibus, quarum ea prima fuit, ut Crucem Christi Dómini restitúeret. Ergo Crux, quatuórdecim annis postquam vénerat in potestátem Persárum, recépta est. Quam rédiens Ierosólymam Heraclíus solémni celebritáte suis húmeris rétulit in eum montem, quo eam Salvátor túlerat.

Chosroes was broken by these defeats, and when in his flight, in 628, he was about crossing the Tigris, he proclaimed his son Medarses partner in his kingdom. Chosroes' eldest son Siroes took this slight to heart, and formed a plot to murder his father and brother, which plot he brought to effect soon after they had come home. Then he got the kingdom from Heraclius upon certain terms, whereof the first was that he should give back the Cross of the Lord Christ. The Cross therefore was received back after that it had been fourteen years in the power of the Persians, and in 629 Heraclius came to Jerusalem and bore it with solemn pomp unto the Mount whereunto the Saviour had borne it.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

Quod factum illústri miráculo commendátum est. Nam Heraclíus, ut erat auro et gemmis ornátus, insístere coáctus est in porta, quæ ad Calváriæ montem ducébat. Quo enim magis prógredi conabátur, eo magis retinéri videbátur. Cumque ea re et ipse Heraclíus et réliqui omnes obstupéscerent; Zacharías, Ierosolymórum antístes, Vide, inquit, imperátor, ne isto triumpháli ornátu, in Cruce ferénda parum Iesu Christi paupertátem et humilitátem imitére. Tum Heraclíus, abiécto amplíssimo vestítu detractísque cálceis ac plebéio amíctu indútus, réliquum viæ fácile confécit, et in eódem Calváriæ loco Crucem státuit, unde fúerat a Persis asportáta. Itaque Exaltatiónis sanctæ Crucis solémnitas, quæ hac die quotánnis celebrabátur, illústrior habéri cœpit ob eius rei memóriam, quod ibídem fúerit repósita ab Heraclío, ubi Salvatóri primum fúerat constitúta.

This event was marked by a famous miracle. Heraclius, who was adorned with gold and jewels, stayed perforce at the gateway which leadeth unto Mount Calvary, and the harder he strove to go forward, the harder he seemed to be held back, whereat both himself and all they that stood by were sore amazed. Then spake Zacharias, Patriarch of Jerusalem, saying: See, O Emperor, that it be not that in carrying the Cross attired in the guise of a Conqueror thou showest too little of the poverty and lowliness of Jesus Christ. Then Heraclius cast away his princely raiment and took off his shoes from his feet, and in the garb of a countryman easily finished his journey, and set up the Cross once more in the same place upon Calvary whence the Persians had carried it away. That the Cross had been put by Heraclius in the same place wherein it had first been planted by the Saviour caused the yearly Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross to become the more famous thenceforward.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Ioánnem

From the Holy Gospel according to John

Ioannes 12:31-36

John 12:31-36

In illo témpore: Dixit Iesus turbis Iudæórum: Nunc iudícium est mundi, nunc princeps huius mundi eiciétur foras. Et réliqua.

At that time, Jesus said unto the multitudes of the Jews: Now is the judgment of this world, now shall the prince of this world be cast out. And so on.

Homilía sancti Leónis Papæ

Homily by Pope St. Leo the Great.

Sermo 8 de Passione Domini, post medium

8th on the Lord's Passion.

Exaltáto, dilectíssimi, per Crucem Christo, non illa tantum spécies aspéctui mentis occúrrat, quæ fuit in óculis impiórum, quibus per Móysen dictum est: Et erit pendens vita tua ante óculos tuos, et timébis die ac nocte, et non credes vitæ tuæ. Isti enim nihil in crucifíxo Dómino præter fácinus suum cogitáre potuérunt, habéntes timórem, non quo fides vera iustificátur, sed quo consciéntia iníqua torquétur. Noster vero intelléctus, quem spíritus veritátis illúminat, glóriam Crucis, cælo terráque radiántem, puro ac líbero corde suscípiat; et interióre ácie vídeat, quale sit quod Dóminus, cum de passiónis suæ loquerétur instántia, dixit: Nunc iudícium mundi est, nunc princeps huius mundi eiciétur foras. Et ego, si exaltátus fúero a terra, ómnia traham ad meípsum.

Dearly beloved brethren, when we gaze upon Christ lifted up upon the Cross, the eyes of our mind see more than that which appeared before the wicked, unto whom it was said through Moses: And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee, and thou shalt fear day and night, and shalt have none assurance of thy life. Deut. xxviii 66. They saw in the crucified Lord nothing but the work of their own wickedness, and they feared greatly, Matth. xxvii. 54, not with that faith which giveth earnest of life by justification, but with that whereby the evil conscience is tortured. But our understanding is enlightened by the Spirit of truth, and with pure and open hearts we see the glory of the Cross shining over heaven and earth, and discern by inward glance what the Lord meant when His Passion was nigh at hand, and He said: Now is the judgment of this world, now shall the prince of this world be cast out. And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all things unto Me.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Dulce lignum, dulces clavos, dulce pondus sustínuit:

℟. Sweetest wood and sweetest iron, Sweetest weight is hung on thee

* Quæ sola digna fuit portáre prétium huius sǽculi.

* Thou alone wast counted worthy this world's ransom to uphold.

℣. Hoc signum Crucis erit in cælo cum Dóminus ad iudicándum vénerit.

℣. The sign of the Cross shall be in heaven when the Lord cometh to judgment.

℟. Quæ sola digna fuit portáre prétium huius sǽculi.

℟. Thou alone wast counted worthy this world's ransom to uphold.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

O admirábilis poténtia Crucis! o ineffábilis glória Passiónis, in qua et tribúnal Dómini, et iudícium mundi, et potéstas est Crucifíxi! Traxísti enim, Dómine, ómnia ad te, et cum expandísses tota die manus tuas ad pópulum non credéntem et contradicéntem, tibi, confiténdæ maiestátis tuæ sensum totus mundus accépit. Traxísti, Dómine, ómnia ad te, cum in exsecratiónem Iudáici scéleris, unam protulérunt ómnia eleménta senténtiam; cum, obscurátis lumináribus cæli et convérso in noctem die, terra quoque mótibus quaterétur insólitis, univérsaque creatúra impiórum úsui se negáret. Traxísti, Dómine, ómnia ad te, quóniam, scisso templi velo, Sancta sanctórum ab indígnis pontifícibus recessérunt; ut figúra in veritátem, prophetía in manifestatiónem, et lex in Evangélium verterétur.

How wonderful is the power of the Cross! O how unutterable is the glory of the Passion, wherein standeth the Lord's judgment-seat, and the judgment of this world, and the might of the Crucified! Lord! Thou hast drawn all things unto thee! Thou didst spread out thine Hands all the day unto an unbelieving and gainsaying people, Isa. lxv. 2, but the world hath felt and owned thy Majesty! Lord! Thou hast drawn all things unto thee! All the elements gave one wild cry of horror at the iniquity of the Jews the lights of the firmament were darkened, day turned into night, earth quaked with strange tremblings, and all God's work refused to serve the guilty. Lord! Thou hast drawn all things unto thee! The veil of the Temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom, the Holy of Holies denied itself as a Sanctuary for the ministration of unworthy Priests, that the shadow might be changed for the substance, prophecy for realization, and the Law for the Gospel.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Sicut Móyses exaltávit serpéntem in desérto, ita exaltári opórtet Fílium hóminis:

℟. As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up

* Ut omnis qui credit in ipsum, non péreat, sed hábeat vitam ætérnam.

* That whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

℣. Non misit Deus Fílium suum in mundum ut iúdicet mundum, sed ut salvétur mundus per ipsum.

℣. God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

℟. Ut omnis qui credit in ipsum, non péreat, sed hábeat vitam ætérnam.

℟. That whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Traxísti, Dómine, ómnia ad te, ut, quod in uno Iudǽæ templo obumbrátis significatiónibus tegebátur, pleno apertóque sacraménto universárum ubíque natiónum devótio celebráret. Nunc étenim et ordo clárior levitárum, et dígnitas ámplior seniórum, et sacrátior est únctio sacerdótum: quia Crux tua ómnium fons benedictiónum, ómnium est causa gratiárum; per quam credéntibus datur virtus de infirmitáte, glória de oppróbrio, vita de morte. Nunc étiam, carnálium sacrificiórum varietáte cessánte, omnes differéntias hostiárum una córporis et sánguinis tui implet oblátio: quóniam tu es verus Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccáta mundi; et ita in te univérsa pérficis mystéria, ut sicut unum est pro omni víctima sacrifícium, ita unum de omni gente sit regnum.

Lord! Thou hast drawn all things unto thee! That which was veiled under types and shadows in the one Jewish Temple, is hailed by the love of all peoples in full and open worship. There is now a higher order of Levites, a more honourable rank of elders, a Priesthood with an holier anointing. thy Cross is a well of blessings for all, and a cause of thanksgiving for all. Thereby for them that believe in thee, weakness is turned into strength, shame into glory, and death into life. The changing ordinance of diverse carnal sacrifices is gone; the one oblation of thy Body and Blood fulfilleth them all. For Thou art the Very Paschal Lamb, Which takest away the sins of the world, and art in thyself all offerings finished. And even as Thou art the One Sacrifice Which taketh the place of all sacrifices, so may thy kingdom be one kingdom established over all peoples.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

5 Moreover when all went to the golden calves which Jeroboam king of Israel had made, he alone fled the company of all,

6 Sed pergébat in Ierúsalem ad templum Dómini et ibi adorábat Dóminum Deum Israël, ómnia primitíva sua et décimas suas fidéliter ófferens;

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum

From the Holy Gospel according to Matthew

Matt 6:24-33

Matt 6:24-33

In illo témpore: Dixit Iesus discípulis suis: Nemo potest duóbus dóminis servíre. Et réliqua.

At that time, Jesus said unto His disciples: No man can serve two masters. And so on.

Homilía sancti Augustíni Epíscopi

Homily by St. Augustine, Bishop of Hippo.

Lib. 2 de Sermone Dómini in monte, cap. 14

Bk. ii. on the Lord's Sermon on the Mount, ch. xiv.

Nemo potest duóbus dóminis servíre. Ad hanc ipsam intentiónem referéndum est quod consequénter expónit, dicens: Aut enim unum ódio habébit, et álterum díliget; aut álterum patiétur, et álterum contémnet. Quæ verba diligénter consideránda sunt: nam, qui sint duo dómini, deínceps osténdit, cum dicit: Non potéstis Deo servíre, et mammónæ. Mammóna apud Hebrǽos divítiæ appellári dicúntur. Cóngruit et Púnicum nomen; nam lucrum Púnice mammon dícitur.

“No man can serve two masters,” and this is further explained “for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other.” These words we ought carefully to weigh, for the Lord showeth straightway who be the two masters whom we have choice of: “Ye cannot serve God and Mammon.” Mammon is a term which the Hebrews are said to use for riches. It is also a Carthaginian word for the Punic for “gain” is “mammon.”

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

Sextodécimo Kaléndas Octóbris Luna duodevicésima Anno Dómini 2030

On the morrow we keep the feast of the holy martyrs Cornelius, Pope of Rome, and Cyprian, Bishop of Carthage, of whose birth into the better life mention hath been made upon the 14th day of this present month of September.

September 16th 2030, the 18th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:

Sanctórum Mártyrum Cornélii Pape, et Cypriáni, Carthaginénsis Epíscopi, quorum memória décimo octávo Kaléndas Octóbris recólitur.

Chalcedóne natális sanctæ Euphémiæ, Vírginis et Mártyris; quæ, sub Diocletiáno Imperatóre et Prisco Procónsule, torménta, cárceres, vérbera, arguménta rotárum, ignes, póndera lápidum, béstias, plagas virgárum, serras acútas, sartágines ignítas pro Christo superávit. Sed, rursus in theátrum ad béstias ducta, ibi, cum orásset ad Dóminum ut iam spíritum suum suscíperet, una ex iis morsum sancto córpori infigénte, céteris pedes eius lambéntibus, immaculátum spíritum Deo réddidit.

At Chalcedon, the holy Virgin and martyr Euphemia. Under the Emperor Diocletian and the Proconsul Priscus, she overcame for Christ's sake torture, imprisonment, stripes, wheels, fire, stones, beasts, rods, sharp saws, and hot metal. When she was again cast to the beasts in the theatre, she prayed the Lord to take her spirit to Himself, and then one of them bit her sacred body, while the rest licked her feet, and she resigned her soul without spot to God.

Romæ sanctórum Mártyrum Lúciæ, nóbilis matrónæ, et Geminiáni; quos ambos Diocletiánus Imperátor, pœnis gravíssimis afflíctos diúque tortos, tandem, post laudábilem martýrii victóriam, gládio animadvérti præcépit.

At Rome, the holy martyrs Lucy, a noble matron, and Geminian, whom the Emperor Diocletian, after they had suffered grievously and long been tormented, and had thus gained a noble victory by martyrdom, commanded to be slain with the sword.

Natális sancti Martíni Primi, Papæ et Mártyris, qui, cum Sérgium ac Paulum et Pyrrhum hæréticos, Romæ coácta Sýnodo, condemnásset, ídeo, iussu Constántis, Imperatóris hærétici, per fraudem captus et Constantinópolim perdúctus, in Chersonésum relegátus est, ibíque, ob cathólicam fidem ærúmnis conféctus, vitam finívit, multísque miráculis cláruit. Eius corpus, póstea Romam translátum, in Ecclésia sanctórum Silvéstri et Martíni cónditum fuit. Ipsíus tamen festívitas prídie Idus Novémbris celebrátur.

Likewise at Rome, upon the Flaminian Way, the holy martyrs Abundius the Priest and Abundantius the Deacon, whom the Emperor Diocletian commanded to be beheaded at the tenth milestone from the city, along with the eminent Marcian, and John, the son of Marcian, whom they had raised from the dead.

Romæ item natális sanctæ Cæcíliæ, Vírginis et Mártyris, quæ sponsum suum Valeriánum et fratrem eius Tibúrtium ad credéndum in Christum perdúxit, et ad martýrium incitávit. Hanc Almáchius, Urbis Præféctus, post eórum martýrium tenéri, atque illústri passióne, post ignem superátum, fecit gládio consummári, témpore Marci Aurélii Sevéri Alexándri Imperatóris. Eius vero festum recólitur décimo Kaléndas Decémbris.

At Heraclea, in Thrace, the holy martyr Sebastiana, who was led to believe in Christ by the blessed Apostle Paul. Under the Emperor Domitian and the President Sergius she was diversely tried and at last slain with the sword.

Heracléæ, in Thrácia, sanctæ Sebastiánæ Mártyris, quæ a beáto Paulo Apóstolo ad Christi fidem est perdúcta; atque, sub Domitiáno Imperatóre et Sérgio Prǽside, váriis modis tentáta, gládio tandem cæsa est.

At Cordova, (in the ninth century,) the holy martyrs Rogellus and ServusDei, who had their hands and feet cut off and were at last beheaded.

Romæ, via Flamínia, sanctórum Mártyrum Abúndii Presbýteri, et Abundántii Diáconi, quos Diocletiánus Imperátor, una cum illústri viro Marciáno et eius fílio Ioánne, quem illi a mórtuis suscitáverant, gládio feríri iussit, décimo ab Urbe lápide.

In Scotland, the holy Confessor Ninian, Bishop (of Galloway, whose feast we keep upon the 25th day of this present month of September.)

Córdubæ, in Hispánia, sanctórum Mártyrum Rogélli et Servidéi, qui, mánibus pedibúsque abscíssis, ad últimum decolláti sunt.

In England, (in the tenth century,) the holy Virgin Edith, daughter of Edgar, King of the English, who was dedicated to God from a child in the Monastery (of the Order of St. Benedict, at Wilton,) and knew not the world, rather then forsook it.

Apud Cándidam Casam, in Scótia, sancti Niniáni, Epíscopi et Confessóris.

℣. And elsewhere many other holy martyrs, confessors, and holy virgins.

In Anglia sanctæ Edíthæ Vírginis, Regis Anglórum Edgári fíliæ, quæ, in monastério a tenéris annis Deo dicáta, sǽculum hoc ignorávit pótius quam relíquit.

℟. Thanks be to God.

3 Cumque abiísset, revérsus nuntiávit ei unum ex fíliis Israël iugulátum iacére in platéa. Statímque exsíliens de accúbitu suo relínquens prándium, ieiúnus pervénit ad corpus,

3 And when he had gone, returning he told him, that one of the children of Israel lay slain in the street. And he forthwith leaped up from his place at the table, and left his dinner, and came fasting to the body:

4 Tollénsque illud portávit ad domum suam occúlte, ut, dum sol occubuísset, caute sepelíret eum.

4 And taking it up carried it privately to his house, that after the sun was down, he might bury him cautiously.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Peto, Dómine, ut de vínculo impropérii huius absólvas me, aut certe désuper terram erípias me:

℟. I entreat thee, O Lord, that thou wouldest loose me from this reproach, or that thou wouldest take me away from the earth:

* Ne reminiscáris delícta mea vel paréntum meórum, neque vindíctam sumas de peccátis meis: quia éruis sustinéntes te, Dómine.

* Remember not mine offences nor the offences of my forefathers, neither take thou vengeance of my sins; for thou, O Lord, art a Redeemer unto all that hope in thee.

℣. Omnia enim iudícia tua iusta sunt, et omnes viæ tuæ misericórdia et véritas: et nunc, Dómine, meménto mei.

℣. For all thy judgements are just, and all thy ways are mercy and truth; and now, O Lord, remember me.

℟. Ne reminiscáris delícta mea vel paréntum meórum, neque vindíctam sumas de peccátis meis: quia éruis sustinéntes te, Dómine.

Tob 2:8-12

Tob 2:8-12

8 Arguébant autem eum omnes próximi eius dicéntes: Iam huius rei causa intérfici iussus es et vix effugísti mortis impérium; et íterum sépelis mórtuos?

8 Now all his neighbours blamed him, saying: Once already commandment was given for thee to be slain because of this matter, and thou didst scarce escape the sentence of death, and dost thou again bury the dead?

9 Sed Tobías plus timens Deum quam regem, rapiébat córpora occisórum et occultábat in domo sua et médiis nóctibus sepeliébat ea.

9 But Tobias fearing God more than the king, carried off the bodies of them that were slain, and hid them in his house, and at midnight buried them.

10 Cóntigit autem ut quadam die fatigátus a sepultúra, véniens in domum suam iactásset se iuxta paríetem et obdormísset,

10 Now it happened one day, that being wearied with burying, he came to his house, and cast himself down by the wall and slept,

11 Et ex nido hirúndinum dormiénti illi cálida stércora incíderent super óculos eius fierétque cæcus.

11 And as he was sleeping, hot dung out of a swallow's nest fell upon his eyes, and he was made blind.

12 Hanc autem tentatiónem ídeo permísit Dóminus eveníre illi, ut pósteris darétur exémplum patiéntiæ eius, sicut et sancti Iob.

12 Now this trial the Lord therefore permitted to happen to him, that an example might be given to posterity of his patience, as also of holy Job.

Tob 2:13-18

Tob 2:13-18

13 Nam, cum ab infántia sua semper Deum timúerit et mandáta eius custodíerit, non est contristátus contra Deum quod plaga cæcitátis evénerit ei;

13 For whereas he had always feared God from his infancy, and kept his commandments, he repined not against God because the evil of blindness had befallen him,

14 Sed immóbilis in Dei timóre permánsit agens grátias Deo ómnibus diébus vitæ suæ.

14 But continued immoveable in the fear of God, giving thanks to God all the days of his life.

15 Nam sicut beáto Iob insultábant reges, ita isti paréntes et cognáti eius irridébant vitam eius, dicéntes:

15 For as the kings insulted over holy Job: so his relations and kinsmen mocked at his life, saying:

16 Ubi est spes tua, pro qua eleemósynas et sepultúras faciébas?

16 Where is thy hope, for which thou gavest alms, and buriedst the dead?

17 Tobías vero increpábat eos, dicens: Nolíte ita loqui;

17 But Tobias rebuked them, saying: Speak not so:

18 Quóniam fílii sanctórum sumus, et vitam illam exspectámus, quam Deus datúrus est his qui fidem suam nunquam mutant ab eo.

18 For we are the children of the saints, and look for that life which God will give to those that never change their faith from him.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℣. Be mindful of Him, and beware lest ever thou transgress His commandments.

Cornélius Románus, Gallo et Volusiáno imperatóribus pontificátum gerens, Novatiáni schísmati fórtiter réstitit, plúraque de lapsis magna caritáte conscrípsit; ad quem octo sancti Cypriáni exstant epístolæ. In exsílio, ad Centum cellas, ærúmnis conféctus, martyr óbiit. Cypriánus Afer, primum glorióse rhetóricam dócuit; exínde, suadénte presbýtero Cæcílio a quo et cognoméntum sortítus est, Christiánus factus, omnem substántiam suam paupéribus erogávit, ac post non multum témporis eléctus in presbýterum, étiam epíscopus Carthaginiénsis constitútus est. Et ipse in schísmate Nováti plura pérferens, damna Ecclésiæ illáta reparáre omni ope conátus est. Huius vero ingénii supérfluum est índicem téxere, cum sole clarióra sint eius ópera. Passus est sub Valeriáno et Galliéno princípibus, persecutióne octáva.

Cornelius, a Roman, was Pope under the Emperors Gallus and Volusianus. He strongly resisted the heresy of Novatian, wrote many things with great charity concerning those who had fallen away; and we possess eight letters addressed to him by St. Cyprian. In exile at Civitavecchia, worn out with hardships, he died a martyr. Cyprian, an African, was first a famous teacher of Rhetoric; then, at the persuasion of the priest Cecilius, from whom he took his surname, he became a Christian and gave all his substance away to the poor. After a short time he was made priest and then appointed Bishop of Carthage. He also wrote much against the schism of Novatian and tried in every way to repair the injuries suffered by the Church. It would be needless to give an account of his wisdom, for his works outshine the sun. He suffered in the eighth persecution under the Emperors Valerian and Gallienus.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

Won bright trophies of good, glad be the voice ye raise,

Victórum genus óptimum.

While these heroes of Christ ye sing!

Hi sunt, quos fátue mundus abhórruit;

They, while yet in the world were by the world abhorred;

Hunc fructu vácuum, flóribus áridum

Felt how fading the joys, fleeting the wealth it stored;

Contempsére tui nóminis ásseclæ

Spurned all pleasure for thee, and at thy call, O Lord,

Iesu, Rex bone cǽlitum.

Came forth strong in thy name, as King.

Hi pro te fúrias, atque minas truces

Lord, how bravely they bore fury and pain for thee!

Calcárunt hóminum, sǽvaque vérbera:

Scourge, rod, sword, and the rack strongly endured; but free

His cessit lácerans fórtiter úngula,

Sang out, bold in thy love, longing on high to be;

Nec carpsit penetrália.

Earth's might never their souls could bend.

Cædúntur gládiis more bidéntium:

While they, shedding their blood, victims for Jesus fell,

Non murmur résonat, non quærimónia;

No sound out of their lips came of their throes to tell;

Sed corde impávido mens bene cónscia

Bowed low, patient and meek, loving the Lord so well,

Consérvat patiéntiam.

Turned they still to the Christ, their friend.

Quæ vox, quæ póterit lingua retéxere,

What joys, bright with the blood shed for thy love they share,

Quæ tu Martýribus múnera prǽparas?

Those brave martyrs of thine crowned with thy laurels rare;

Rubri nam flúido sánguine fúlgidis

Man's tongue never can tell, never can half declare,

Cingunt témpora láureis.

How pure now is their bliss above!

Te, summa o Déitas, únaque póscimus;

Yet we, Father on high, God of eternal might,

Ut culpas ábigas, nóxia súbtrahas,

Lift weak voices in prayer asking for peace and light;

Des pacem fámulis; ut tibi glóriam,

Cleanse thou out of our hearts every stain and blight,

Annórum in sériem, canant.

So our songs may be songs of love.

37:12 Amíci mei, et próximi mei * advérsum me appropinquavérunt, et stetérunt.

37:12 My friends and my neighbours * have drawn near, and stood against me.

37:12 Et qui iuxta me erant, de longe stetérunt: * et vim faciébant qui quærébant ánimam meam.

37:12 And they that were near me stood afar off: * and they that sought my soul used violence.

37:13 Et qui inquirébant mala mihi, locúti sunt vanitátes: * et dolos tota die meditabántur.

37:13 And they that sought evils to me spoke vain things, * and studied deceits all the day long.

37:14 Ego autem tamquam surdus non audiébam: * et sicut mutus non apériens os suum.

37:14 But I, as a deaf man, heard not: * and as a dumb man not opening his mouth.

37:15 Et factus sum sicut homo non áudiens: * et non habens in ore suo redargutiónes.

37:15 And I became as a man that heareth not: * and that hath no reproofs in his mouth.

37:16 Quóniam in te, Dómine, sperávi: * tu exáudies me, Dómine, Deus meus.

37:16 For in thee, O Lord, have I hoped: * thou wilt hear me, O Lord my God.

37:17 Quia dixi: Nequándo supergáudeant mihi inimíci mei: * et dum commovéntur pedes mei, super me magna locúti sunt.

37:17 For I said: Lest at any time my enemies rejoice over me: * and whilst my feet are moved, they speak great things against me.

37:18 Quóniam ego in flagélla parátus sum: * et dolor meus in conspéctu meo semper.

37:18 For I am ready for scourges: * and my sorrow is continually before me.

37:19 Quóniam iniquitátem meam annuntiábo: * et cogitábo pro peccáto meo.

37:19 For I will declare my iniquity: * and I will think for my sin.

37:20 Inimíci autem mei vivunt, et confirmáti sunt super me: * et multiplicáti sunt qui odérunt me iníque.

37:20 But my enemies live, and are stronger than I: * and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.

37:21 Qui retríbuunt mala pro bonis, detrahébant mihi: * quóniam sequébar bonitátem.

37:21 They that render evil for good, have detracted me, * because I followed goodness.

37:22 Ne derelínquas me, Dómine, Deus meus: * ne discésseris a me.

37:22 Forsake me not, O Lord my God: * do not thou depart from me.

37:23 Inténde in adiutórium meum, * Dómine, Deus, salútis meæ.

Psalm 38 [9]

38:2 Dixi: Custódiam vias meas: * ut non delínquam in lingua mea.

38:5 And what is the number of my days: * that I may know what is wanting to me.

38:6 Ecce mensurábiles posuísti dies meos: * et substántia mea tamquam níhilum ante te.

38:6 Behold thou hast made my days measurable: * and my substance is as nothing before thee.

38:6 Verúmtamen univérsa vánitas, * omnis homo vivens.

38:6 And indeed all things are vanity: * every man living.

38:7 Verúmtamen in imágine pertránsit homo: * sed et frustra conturbátur.

38:7 Surely man passeth as an image: * yea, and he is disquieted in vain.

38:7 Thesaurízat: * et ignórat cui congregábit ea.

38:7 He storeth up: * and he knoweth not for whom he shall gather these things.

38:8 Et nunc quæ est exspectátio mea? Nonne Dóminus? * Et substántia mea apud te est.

38:8 And now what is my hope? Is it not the Lord? * And my substance is with thee.

38:9 Ab ómnibus iniquitátibus meis érue me: * oppróbrium insipiénti dedísti me.

38:9 Deliver thou me from all my iniquities: * thou hast made me a reproach to the fool.

38:10 Obmútui, et non apérui os meum, quóniam tu fecísti: * ámove a me plagas tuas.

38:10 I was dumb, and I opened not my mouth, because thou hast done it: * remove thy scourges from me.

38:12 A fortitúdine manus tuæ ego deféci in increpatiónibus: * propter iniquitátem corripuísti hóminem.

38:12 The strength of thy hand hath made me faint in rebukes: * thou hast corrected man for iniquity.

38:12 Et tabéscere fecísti sicut aráneam ánimam eius: * verúmtamen vane conturbátur omnis homo.

38:12 And thou hast made his soul to waste away like a spider: * surely in vain is any man disquieted.

38:13 Exáudi oratiónem meam, Dómine, et deprecatiónem meam: * áuribus pércipe lácrimas meas.

38:13 Hear my prayer, O Lord, and my supplication: * give ear to my tears.

38:13 Ne síleas: quóniam ádvena ego sum apud te, et peregrínus, * sicut omnes patres mei.

19 Anna vero uxor eius ibat ad opus textrínum cotídie, et de labóre mánuum suárum victum, quem cónsequi póterat, deferébat.

21 And when her husband heard it bleating, he said: Take heed, lest perhaps it be stolen: restore ye it to its owners, for it is not lawful for us either to eat or to touch any thing that cometh by theft.

4 For we have not obeyed thy commandments, therefore are we delivered to spoil and to captivity, and death, and are made a fable, and a reproach to all nations, amongst which thou hast scattered us.

5 Et nunc, Dómine, magna iudícia tua, quia non égimus secúndum præcépta tua et non ambulávimus sincériter coram te.

5 And now, O Lord, great are thy judgments, because we have not done according to thy precepts, and have not walked sincerely before thee:

6 Et nunc, Dómine, secúndum voluntátem tuam fac mecum, et prǽcipe in pace récipi spíritum meum; éxpedit enim mihi mori magis quam vívere.

13:2 Quóniam tu flagéllas, et salvas: dedúcis ad ínferos, et redúcis: * et non est qui effúgiat manum tuam.

49:16 But to the sinner God hath said: * Why dost thou declare my justices, and take my covenant in thy mouth?

49:17 Tu vero odísti disciplínam: * et proiecísti sermónes meos retrórsum:

49:17 Seeing thou hast hated discipline: * and hast cast my words behind thee.

49:18 Si vidébas furem, currébas cum eo: * et cum adúlteris portiónem tuam ponébas.

49:18 If thou didst see a thief thou didst run with him: * and with adulterers thou hast been a partaker.

49:19 Os tuum abundávit malítia: * et lingua tua concinnábat dolos.

49:19 Thy mouth hath abounded with evil, * and thy tongue framed deceits.

49:20 Sedens advérsus fratrem tuum loquebáris, et advérsus fílium matris tuæ ponébas scándalum: * hæc fecísti, et tácui.

49:20 Sitting thou didst speak against thy brother, and didst lay a scandal against thy mother’s son: * these things hast thou done, and I was silent.

49:21 Existimásti, iníque, quod ero tui símilis: * árguam te, et státuam contra fáciem tuam.

49:21 Thou thoughtest unjustly that I should be like to thee: * but I will reprove thee, and set before thy face.

49:22 Intellégite hæc, qui obliviscímini Deum: * nequándo rápiat, et non sit qui erípiat.

49:22 Understand these things, you that forget God; * lest he snatch you away, and there be none to deliver you.

49:23 Sacrifícium laudis honorificábit me: * et illic iter, quo osténdam illi salutáre Dei.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Marcum

Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to Mark

Marc 9:16-28

Mark 9:16-28

In illo témpore: Respóndens unus de turba dixit ad Iesum: Magíster, áttuli fílium meum ad te habéntem spíritum mutum. Et réliqua.

At that time, one of the multitude answered and said unto Jesus: Master, I have brought unto thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit. And so on.

Homilía sancti Bedæ Venerábilis Presbýteri

Homily by the Venerable Bede, Priest at Jarrow.

Liber 3, cap. 38 in Marcum 9

Bk. III, ch. 38, on Mark IX

Dæmoníacum hunc, quem descéndens de monte Dóminus sanávit, Marcus quidem surdum mutúmque, Matthǽus vero lunáticum fuísse commémorat. Signíficat autem eos, de quibus scriptum est: Stultus ut luna mutátur. Qui nunquam in eódem statu permanéntes, nunc ad illa vítia mutáti, crescunt atque decréscunt. Qui muti sunt, non confiténdo fidem; surdi, nec ipsum aliquátenus veritátis audiéndo sermónem. Spumant autem, cum stultítia tabéscunt; stultórum namque et languéntium atque hébetum est, spumas salivárum ex ore dimíttere. Strident déntibus, cum iracúndiæ furóre flamméscunt: aréscunt, cum ótio torpénte languéscunt, et nulla virtútis indústria confortáti enérviter vivunt.

Concerning this possessed person whom the Lord healed, after that He was come down from the mount, Mark saith that he was deaf and dumb, and Matthew xvii. 15 that he was lunatic. He was a figure of them of whom it is said: A fool changeth as the moon, Ecclus. xxvii. 12. These are they who continue never in one stay, but change now to one sin, and now to another, waxing and waning dumb, in that they confess not the faith deaf, in that they have no ears for the word of truth. They foam at the mouth also, and pine away with folly. For it is the way with idiots, and swooners, and stupified, to foam their spittle out at their mouths. They gnash their teeth when they are inflamed with the heat of passion. They wither up in the paralysis of sloth and live nerveless lives unbraced by any strong exercise.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Tribulatiónes civitátum audívimus, quas passæ sunt, et defécimus: timor et hebetúdo mentis cécidit super nos et super líberos nostros: ipsi montes nolunt recípere fugam nostram:

℟. We have heard of the tribulation of those cities, which they have suffered, and we have fainted. Fear and confusion of mind are fallen upon us. Even the mountains will not give us a refuge.

* Dómine, miserére.

* Lord, have mercy.

℣. Peccávimus cum pátribus nostris, iniúste égimus, iniquitátem fécimus.

℣. We have sinned like our forefathers, we have done unjustly, and wrought iniquity.

℟. Dómine, miserére.

℟. Lord, have mercy.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

℣. Grant, Lord, a blessing.

Benedictio. Divínum auxílium máneat semper nobíscum.

Benediction. God's most mighty strength alway be His people's staff and stay.

Quod autem ait: Et dixi discípulis tuis ut eícerent illum, et non potuérunt; laténter Apóstolos accúsat, cum impossibílitas curándi, intérdum non ad imbecillitátem curántium, sed ad eórum, qui curándi sunt, fidem referátur, dicénte Dómino: Fiat tibi secúndum fidem tuam. Qui respóndens eis, dixit: O generátio incrédula, quámdiu apud vos ero? quámdiu vos pátiar? Non quod tǽdio superátus sit mansuétus ac mitis, qui non apéruit sicut agnus coram tondénte os suum, nec in verba furóris erúpit; sed quo in similitúdinem médici, si ægrótum vídeat contra sua præcépta se gérere, dicat: Usquequo accédam ad domum tuam? quoúsque artis meæ perdam indústriam, me áliud iubénte, et te áliud perpetránte?

The father saith: And I spake to thy disciples, that they should cast him out, and they could not. Here he maketh a sort of accusation against the Apostles. But that cures cannot be wrought is sometimes owing, not to the powerlessness of them that would heal, but to the want of faith in them that are to be healed as saith the Lord: According to your faith be it unto you. Matth. ix. 29. He answereth him, and saith: O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you The meek and lowly One, Who, as a lamb before his shearers, is dumb, so opened not His Mouth, was not wearied out of patience, nor did He break out into words of passion, but He spake as a physician might speak, who saw that the sick man did contrary to his commands. Wherefore should I come unto thine house? How long am I to throw away the exercise of my skill, while I order one thing and thou dost another?

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Omni témpore bénedic Deum, et pete ab eo ut vias tuas dírigat,

℟. In all seasons bless God, and ask of Him to order thy goings;

* Et in omni témpore consília tua in ipso permáneant.

* And in all seasons let thy counsels be steadfastly in Him.

℣. Inquíre ut fácias quæ plácita sunt illi in veritáte, et in tota virtúte tua.

℣. Seek faithfully and with all thy strength to do such things as please Him.

℟. Et in omni témpore consília tua in ipso permáneant.

Et dixit illis: Hoc genus in nullo potest exíre, nisi in oratióne et ieiúnio. Dum docet Apóstolos quómodo dæmon nequíssimus débeat expélli, omnes instítuit ad vitam; ut scílicet novérimus, gravíssima quæque vel immundórum spirítuum, vel hóminum tentaménta ieiúniis et oratiónibus esse superánda: iram quoque Dómini, cum in ultiónem nostrórum scélerum fúerit accénsa, hoc remédio singulári posse placári. Ieiúnium autem generále est, non solum ab escis, sed et a cunctis illécebris abstinére carnálibus, immo ab ómnibus vitiórum continére se passiónibus. Sic et orátio generális non in verbis solum est, quibus divínam cleméntiam invocámus, verum étiam in ómnibus, quæ in obséquium nostri Conditóris fídei devotióne gérimus.

And He said unto them: This kind can come forth by nothing but by prayer and fasting. While He teacheth the Apostles how the very worst kind of devil must be driven out, He giveth unto all of us an instruction unto life, that we may know that the most grievous trials, either from unclean spirits, or from men, are to be overcome by fasting and prayer. The wrath of the Lord also, when it is kindled to take vengeance of our sins, can be turned away by this remedy only. To fast, in a general sense, is not only to abstain from meats, but to restrain oneself from all the enticements of the flesh, and from all evil passions. So also, to pray, is not only to call in words for the mercy of God, but also, in all things which we do, in earnestness of faith to worship our Maker.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Memor esto, fili, quóniam páuperem vitam gérimus:

* Habébis multa bona, si timúeris Deum.

52:1 The fool said in his heart: * There is no God.

52:2 Corrúpti sunt, et abominábiles facti sunt in iniquitátibus: * non est qui fáciat bonum.

52:2 They are corrupted, and become abominable in iniquities: * there is none that doth good.

52:3 Deus de cælo prospéxit super fílios hóminum: * ut vídeat si est intéllegens, aut requírens Deum.

52:3 God looked down from heaven on the children of men: * to see if there were any that did understand, or did seek God.

52:4 Omnes declinavérunt, simul inútiles facti sunt: * non est qui fáciat bonum, non est usque ad unum.

52:4 All have gone aside, they are become unprofitable together, * there is none that doth good, no not one.

52:5 Nonne scient omnes qui operántur iniquitátem, * qui dévorant plebem meam ut cibum panis?

52:5 Shall not all the workers of iniquity know, * who eat up my people as they eat bread?

52:6 Deum non invocavérunt: * illic trepidavérunt timóre, ubi non erat timor.

52:6 They have not called upon God: * there have they trembled for fear, where there was no fear.

52:6 Quóniam Deus dissipávit ossa eórum qui homínibus placent: * confúsi sunt, quóniam Deus sprevit eos.

52:6 For God hath scattered the bones of them that please men: * they have been confounded, because God hath despised them.

De libro Tobíæ

Lesson from the book of Tobias

Tob 12:1-4

Tob 12:1-4

1 Vocávit ad se Tobías fílium suum, dixítque ei: Quid póssumus dare viro isti sancto, qui venit tecum?

1 Then Tobias called to him his son, and said to him: What can we give to this holy man, that is come with thee?

2 Respóndens Tobías dixit patri suo: Pater, quam mercédem dábimus ei? aut quid dignum póterit esse benefíciis eius?

2 Tobias answering, said to his father: Father, what wages shall we give him? or what can be worthy of his benefits?

3 Me duxit et redúxit sanum, pecúniam a Gabélo ipse recépit, uxórem ipse me habére fecit et dæmónium ab ea ipse compéscuit, gáudium paréntibus eius fecit, meípsum a devoratióne piscis erípuit, te quoque vidére fecit lumen cæli, et bonis ómnibus per eum repléti sumus. Quid illi ad hæc potérimus dignum dare?

3 He conducted me and brought me safe again, he received the money of Gabelus, he caused me to have my wife, and he chased from her the evil spirit, he gave joy to her parents, myself he delivered from being devoured by the fish, thee also he hath made to see the light of heaven, and we are filled with all good things through him. What can we give him sufficient for these things?

4 Sed peto te, pater mi, ut roges eum, si forte dignábitur medietátem de ómnibus quæ alláta sunt, sibi assúmere.

4 But I beseech thee, my father, to desire him, that he would vouchsafe to accept one half of all things that have been brought.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Peto, Dómine, ut de vínculo impropérii huius absólvas me, aut certe désuper terram erípias me:

℟. I entreat thee, O Lord, that thou wouldest loose me from this reproach, or that thou wouldest take me away from the earth:

* Ne reminiscáris delícta mea vel paréntum meórum, neque vindíctam sumas de peccátis meis: quia éruis sustinéntes te, Dómine.

* Remember not mine offences nor the offences of my forefathers, neither take thou vengeance of my sins; for thou, O Lord, art a Redeemer unto all that hope in thee.

℣. Omnia enim iudícia tua iusta sunt, et omnes viæ tuæ misericórdia et véritas: et nunc, Dómine, meménto mei.

℣. For all thy judgements are just, and all thy ways are mercy and truth; and now, O Lord, remember me.

℟. Ne reminiscáris delícta mea vel paréntum meórum, neque vindíctam sumas de peccátis meis: quia éruis sustinéntes te, Dómine.

℟. Remember not mine offences nor the offences of my forefathers, neither take thou vengeance of my sins; for thou, O Lord, art a Redeemer unto all that hope in thee.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

Tob 12:5-10

Tob 12:5-10

5 Et vocántes eum, pater scílicet et fílius, tulérunt eum in partem; et rogáre cœpérunt ut dignarétur dimídiam partem ómnium quæ attúlerant, accéptam habére.

5 So the father and the son, calling him, took him aside: and began to desire him that he would vouchsafe to accept of half of all things that they had brought.

6 Tunc dixit eis occúlte: Benedícite Deum cæli et coram ómnibus vivéntibus confitémini ei, quia fecit vobíscum misericórdiam suam.

6 Then he said to them secretly: Bless ye the God of heaven, give glory to him in the sight of all that live, because he hath shewn his mercy to you.

7 Etenim sacraméntum regis abscóndere bonum est, ópera autem Dei reveláre et confitéri honoríficum est.

7 For it is good to hide the secret of a king: but honourable to reveal and confess the works of God.

8 Bona est orátio cum ieiúnio, et eleemósyna magis quam thesáuros auri recóndere;

8 Prayer is good with fasting and alms more than to lay up treasures of gold:

9 Quóniam eleemósyna a morte líberat, et ipsa est quæ purgat peccáta, et facit inveníre misericórdiam et vitam ætérnam.

9 For alms delivereth from death, and the same is that which purgeth away sins, and maketh to find mercy and life everlasting.

10 Qui autem fáciunt peccátum et iniquitátem hostes sunt ánimæ suæ.

10 But they that commit sin and iniquity, are enemies to their own soul.

Tob 12:11-17

Tob 12:11-17

11 Manifésto ergo vobis veritátem et non abscóndam a vobis occúltum sermónem.

11 I discover then the truth unto you, and I will not hide the secret from you.

12 Quando orábas cum lácrimis, et sepeliébas mórtuos, et derelinquébas prándium tuum, et mórtuos abscondébas per diem in domo tua, et nocte sepeliébas eos, ego óbtuli oratiónem tuam Dómino.

12 When thou didst pray with tears, and didst bury the dead, and didst leave thy dinner, and hide the dead by day in thy house, and bury them by night, I offered thy prayer to the Lord.

13 Et quia accéptus eras Deo, necésse fuit ut tentátio probáret te.

13 And because thou wast acceptable to God, it was necessary that temptation should prove thee.

14 Et nunc misit me Dóminus ut curárem te et Saram uxórem fílii tui a dæmónio liberárem;

14 And now the Lord hath sent me to heal thee, and to deliver Sara thy son's wife from the devil.

15 Ego enim sum Ráphaël Angelus, unus ex septem qui astámus ante Dóminum.

15 For I am the angel Raphael, one of the seven, who stand before the Lord.

16 Cumque hæc audíssent, turbáti sunt et treméntes cecidérunt super terram in fáciem suam.

16 And when they had heard these things, they were troubled, and being seized with fear they fell upon the ground on their face.

17 Dixítque eis Angelus: Pax vobis, nolíte timére.

17 And the angel said to them: Peace be to you, fear not.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Memor esto, fili, quóniam páuperem vitam gérimus:

℟. My son, remember that we have but a frail life.

* Habébis multa bona, si timúeris Deum.

* If thou fear God thou shalt have great goods.

℣. In mente habéto eum, et cave nequándo prætermíttas præcépta eius.

℣. Be mindful of Him, and beware lest ever thou transgress His commandments.

℟. Habébis multa bona, si timúeris Deum.

℟. If thou fear God thou shalt have great goods.

Ianuárius, Benevénti epíscopus, Diocletiáno et Maximiáno in Christiános sæviéntibus, a Timótheo Campániæ prǽside ob christiánæ fídei professiónem frustra igne et equúleo tentátus est. Mox vinctus una cum Festo eius diácono et Desidério lectóre, ante rhedam prǽsidis Putéolos pertráhitur, et póstero die cum sóciis, quibus adiécti sunt Sósius Misénas, Próculus Puteolánus diáconus, Eutyches et Acútius láici, béstiis obícitur. Verum, cum hæ innóxiæ illis fuíssent, et hóminum míllia fere quinque Christi fidem suscepíssent, actus in rábiem præses, sanctum Epíscopum cum sóciis gládio pércuti iussit. Horum córpora Christiáni sepeliénda curavérunt. Ianuárii corpus primo Benevéntum, inde ad monastérium montis Vírginis, postrémo in maióri ecclésia Neápolis cónditum, multis miráculis cláruit. Eius sanguis, qui in ampúlla vítrea asservátur, cum in conspéctu cápitis eiúsdem Mártyris pónitur, admirándum in modum colliquefíeri et ebullíre ad hæc usque témpora cérnitur.

Januarius was Bishop of Benevento when Diocletian and Maximian were fiercely persecuting the Christians. For his profession of the Christian faith, he was submitted in vain to the tortures of fire and of the rack by Timotheus, Governor of Campania. Soon after, with Festus his deacon and Desiderius, a lector, he was dragged in chains ahead of the Governor's chariot to Pozzuoli. The next day, he and his companions were thrown to the beasts, together with the deacons Sosius of Misenum and Proculus of Pozzuoli and the laymen Eutyches and Acutius. But when the beasts left them unharmed and nearly five thousand persons received faith in Christ, the Governor was enraged and commanded the holy Bishop and his companions to be beheaded. The Christians attended to their burial. The body of Januarius was first placed at Benevento, then in the monastery of Monte Vergine, and finally in the principal church of Naples, and is famous for many miracles. His blood is kept in a glass vial and, even in our days, when it is placed in sight of the head of the holy Martyr, it is used to melt and bubble in a very strange way.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

72:11 And they said: How doth God know? * and is there knowledge in the most High?

72:12 Ecce, ipsi peccatóres, et abundántes in sǽculo, * obtinuérunt divítias.

72:18 But indeed for deceits thou hast put it to them: * when they were lifted up, thou hast cast them down.

72:19 Quómodo facti sunt in desolatiónem, súbito defecérunt: * periérunt propter iniquitátem suam.

72:19 How are they brought to desolation? they have suddenly ceased to be: * they have perished by reason of their iniquity.

72:20 As the dream of them that awake, O Lord; * so in thy city thou shalt bring their image to nothing.

72:21 Quia inflammátum est cor meum, et renes mei commutáti sunt: * et ego ad níhilum redáctus sum, et nescívi.

72:21 For my heart hath been inflamed, and my reins have been changed: * and I am brought to nothing, and I knew not.

72:23 Ut iuméntum factus sum apud te: * et ego semper tecum.

72:24 Tenuísti manum déxteram meam: et in voluntáte tua deduxísti me, * et cum glória suscepísti me.

72:24 Thou hast held me by my right hand; and by thy will thou hast conducted me, * and with thy glory thou hast received me.

72:25 Quid enim mihi est in cælo? * et a te quid vólui super terram?

72:25 For what have I in heaven? * and besides thee what do I desire upon earth?

72:26 Defécit caro mea, et cor meum: * Deus cordis mei, et pars mea Deus in ætérnum.

72:26 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.

72:27 For behold they that go far from thee shall perish: * thou hast destroyed all them that are disloyal to thee.

Psalmus 78 [7]

Psalm 78 [7]

78:1 Deus, venérunt gentes in hereditátem tuam, polluérunt templum sanctum tuum: * posuérunt Ierúsalem in pomórum custódiam.

78:1 O God, the heathens are come into thy inheritance, they have defiled thy holy temple: * they have made Jerusalem as a place to keep fruit.

78:2 Posuérunt morticína servórum tuórum, escas volatílibus cæli: * carnes sanctórum tuórum béstiis terræ.

78:2 They have given the dead bodies of thy servants to be meat for the fowls of the air: * the flesh of thy saints for the beasts of the earth.

78:3 They have poured out their blood as water, round about Jerusalem, * and there was none to bury them.

78:4 Facti sumus oppróbrium vicínis nostris: * subsannátio et illúsio his, qui in circúitu nostro sunt.

78:4 We are become a reproach to our neighbours: * a scorn and derision to them that are round about us.

78:5 Úsquequo, Dómine, irascéris in finem: * accendétur velut ignis zelus tuus?

78:5 How long, O Lord, wilt thou be angry for ever: * shall thy zeal be kindled like a fire?

78:6 Effúnde iram tuam in gentes, quæ te non novérunt: * et in regna quæ nomen tuum non invocavérunt:

78:6 Pour out thy wrath upon the nations that have not known thee: * and upon the kingdoms that have not called upon thy name.

78:7 Quia comedérunt Iacob: * et locum eius desolavérunt.

78:7 Because they have devoured Jacob; * and have laid waste his place.

78:8 Ne memíneris iniquitátum nostrárum antiquárum, cito antícipent nos misericórdiæ tuæ: * quia páuperes facti sumus nimis.

78:9 Help us, O God, our saviour: and for the glory of thy name, O Lord, deliver us: * and forgive us our sins for thy name’s sake:

78:10 Lest they should say among the Gentiles: Where is their God? * And let him be made known among the nations before our eyes,

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam

Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to Luke

Luc 7:36-50

Luke 7:36-50

In illo témpore: Rogábat Iesum quidam de pharisǽis, ut manducáret cum illo. Et ingréssus domum pharisǽi discúbuit. Et réliqua.

At that time, one of the Pharisees desired that Jesus would eat with him. And He went into the Pharisee's house, and sat down to meat. And so on.

Homilía sancti Gregórii Papæ

Homily by Pope St. Gregory the Great.

Homilia 33 in Evangelia, post initium

33rd on the Gospels.

Quem pharisǽus de falsa iustítia præsúmens, nisi Iudáicum pópulum; quem peccátrix múlier ad vestígia Dómini véniens et plorans, nisi convérsam gentilitátem desígnat? Quæ cum alabástro venit, unguéntum fudit, retro secus pedes Dómini stetit, lácrimis pedes rigávit, capíllis tersit, eosdémque quos infundébat et tergébat pedes osculári non désiit. Nos ergo, nos illa múlier expréssit, si toto corde ad Dóminum post peccáta redeámus, si eius pœniténtiæ luctus imitémur. Quid namque unguénto, nisi bonæ odor opiniónis exprímitur? Unde et Paulus dicit: Christi bonus odor sumus Deo in omni loco.

Of what is the Pharisee that was exalted by self-righteousness a type, but of the Jewish people? And of what the woman which was a sinner and came and wept at the Lord's feet, but of the conversion of the Gentiles? She brought an alabaster box of ointment, and stood at His feet behind Him weeping, and began to wash His Feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed His Feet, and anointed them with the ointment. Of us, therefore, even of us, was that woman a type, if after our sins we turn unto the Lord with all our heart, and imitate the example of her repentant grief. And of what is the ointment a type, but of the sweet savour of a good reputation? Whence also Paul saith: In every place we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ. 2 Cor. ii. 15.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Sufficiébat nobis paupértas nostra, ut divítiæ computaréntur: numquam fuísset pecúnia ipsa, pro qua misísti fílium nostrum,

℟. Our poverty was enough for us, that it might have been accounted riches. O that the money had never been, for which thou hast sent away our son,

* Báculum senectútis nostræ!

* The staff of our old age.

℣. Heu me, fili mi, ut quid te mísimus peregrinári, lumen oculórum nostrórum?

℣. Alas, my son, wherefore have we sent thee wandering, even thee, the light of our eyes?

℟. Báculum senectútis nostræ!

℟. The staff of our old age.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

Reading 2

Si ergo recta ópera ágimus, quibus opiniónis bonæ odóre Ecclésiam respergámus, quid in Dómini córpore, nisi unguéntum fúndimus? Sed secus pedes Iesu múlier stetit: contra pedes enim dómini stétimus, cum in peccátis pósiti eius itinéribus renitebámur. Sed si ad veram pœniténtiam post peccáta convértimur, iam retro secus pedes stamus; quia eius vestígia séquimur, quem impugnabámus. Lácrimis múlier pedes eius rigat: quod nos quoque veráciter ágimus, si quibúslibet últimis membris Dómini per compassiónis afféctum inclinámur, si sanctis eius in tribulatióne compátimur, si eórum tristítiam, nostram putámus.

If therefore we do good works, whereby we gain for the Church the savour of good reputation, what do we but pour ointment upon the body of the Lord? But the woman stood at the Feet of Jesus, behind Him we stood opposite to the Feet of the Lord, what time we were in sin, and went contrary unto His ways. But when we turn again, and truly repent us of our sins, we stand behind His Feet, for we follow His footsteps against Whom we once contended. The woman washed His Feet with her tears and we do in very deed the same when we show the tenderness of sympathy to any of His humbler members, when we feel with His Saints in their tribulations, when we make their woes our own.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

Capíllis ergo pedes Dómini térgimus, quando sanctis eius, quibus ex caritáte compátimur, étiam ex his quæ nobis supérfluunt, miserémur: quátenus sic mens per compassiónem dóleat, ut étiam larga manus afféctum dolóris osténdat. Rigat namque lácrimis Redemptóris pedes, sed capíllis suis non tergit, qui utcúmque proximórum dolóri compátitur, sed tamen eis ex his, quæ sibi supérfluunt, non miserétur. Plorat, et non tergit, qui verba quidem dolóris tríbuit, sed non ministrándo quæ desunt, vim dolóris mínime abscíndit. Osculátur múlier pedes, quos tergit: quod nos quoque plene ágimus, si studióse dilígimus, quos ex largitáte continémus: ne gravis nobis sit necéssitas próximi; ne ipsa nobis eius indigéntia, quæ sustentátur, fiat onerósa: et cum manus necessária tríbuit, ánimus a dilectióne torpéscat.

She wipes the Lord's Feet with our hair when we give charity, even out of such things as we have ourselves no need of, to His holy ones, with whom we feel in their trials, in as far as our heart so sympathizeth, that the bounty of our hand showeth the truth of our compassion. He washeth the Feet of the Redeemer, but wipeth them not with his hair, who feeleth for the sufferings of his neighbours, but nevertheless, relieveth them not, even out of such things as he himself hath no need for. He weepeth, but wipeth not, who offereth words of tenderness, but sootheth not sorrow by giving such things as be lacking. The woman kissed the Feet and we do fully the same, if we warmly love those whom out of bounty we support, so that the neediness of our neighbour is not grievous unto us, nor the penury which we relieve a weariness to us, nor, when the hand is giving what is needful, the heart is untouched by compassion.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

Matthǽus, qui et Levi, Apóstolus et Evangelísta, Caphárnai cum ad telónium sedéret, a Christo vocátus, statim secútus est ipsum; quem étiam cum réliquis discípulis convívio excépit. Post Christi resurrectiónem, ántequam in provínciam proficiscerétur, quæ ei ad prædicándum obtígerat, primus in Iudǽa, propter eos qui ex circumcisióne credíderant, Evangélium Iesu Christi Hebráice scripsit. Mox in Æthiópiam proféctus, Evangélium prædicávit, ac prædicatiónem multis miráculis confirmávit.

It came to pass one day at Capernaum, that Christ went forth, and saw a publican, named Levi, sitting at the receipt of custom; and He said unto him: Follow Me. And he left all, rose up, and followed Him. And Levi made Him a great feast in his own house. This Levi is the Apostle and Evangelist Matthew. After that Christ was risen again from the dead, and while he was yet in Judea, before he set forth for that land which had fallen to the lot of his preaching, he wrote the Gospel of Jesus Christ in the Hebrew tongue, for the sake of them of the circumcision who had believed. His was the first written of the four Gospels. Thereafter he went to Ethiopia, and there preached the Gospel, confirming his preaching with many miracles.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

Illo ígitur in primis miráculo, quo regis fíliam a mórtuis excitávit, regem patrem et uxórem eius cum univérsa província ad Christi fidem convértit. Rege mórtuo, Hírtacus, eius succéssor, cum Iphigeníam, régiam fíliam, vellet sibi dari in matrimónium; Matthǽum, cuius ópera illa virginitátem Deo vóverat et in sancto propósito perseverábat, ad altáre mystérium celebrántem iussit occídi. Qui undécimo caléndas octóbris munus apostólicum martýrii glória cumulávit. Cuius corpus Salérnum translátum, ac póstmodum in ecclésia eius nómine dedicáta, Gregório séptimo summo Pontífice, cónditum, ibídem magno hóminum concúrsu ac pietáte cólitur.

Of his miracles, the most notable was that he raised the King's daughter from the dead, and thereby brought to believe in Christ the King her father, his wife, and all that region. After that the King was dead, Hirtacus, who came after him, was fain to take his daughter Iphigenia to wife, but by the exhortation of Matthew she had made vow of her maidenhood to God, and stood firm to that holy resolution, for which cause Hirtacus commanded to slay the Apostle at the Altar while he was performing the mystery. He crowned the dignity of the Apostleship with the glory of martyrdom upon the 21 st day of September. His body had been brought to Salerno, where it was afterwards buried in a Church dedicated in his name during the papacy of Gregory VII, and there it is held in great worship and sought to by great gatherings of people.

De Expositióne sancti Gregórii Papæ super Ezechiélem Prophétam

From the Exposition of the Book of the Prophet Ezekiel by Pope St. Gregory the Great.

Homilia 3, Lib. 1

Hom. 3, Bk. I

Sancta quátuor animália, quæ prophetíæ spíritu futúra prævidéntur, subtíli narratióne describúntur, cum dícitur: Quátuor fácies uni, et quátuor pennæ uni. Quid per fáciem, nisi notítia; et quid per pennas, nisi volátus exprímitur? Per fáciem quippe unusquísque cognóscitur: per pennas vero in altum ávium córpora sublevántur. Fácies ítaque ad fidem pértinet, penna ad contemplatiónem. Per fidem namque ab omnipoténti Deo cognóscimur, sicut ipse de suis óvibus dicit: Ego sum pastor bonus, et cognósco oves meas, et cognóscunt me meæ. Qui rursus ait: Ego scio quos elégerim. Per contemplatiónem vero, qua super nosmetípsos tóllimur, quasi in áëra levámur.

The Prophet writeth very minutely touching the four holy living creatures, whom he saw in the spirit as being to come. He saith: “Every one had four faces, and every one had four wings.” What signifieth the face save likeness whereby we are known? or wings, save the power to fly since it is by the face that man is known from man, and by their wings that the birds' bodies are carried up into the air. So the face pertaineth to certitude, and the wings to contemplation. With certitude we are known of God Almighty, Who saith: “I am the Good Shepherd, and know My sheep, and am known of Mine.” John x. 14. And again: “I know whom I have chosen.” xiii. 18. And by contemplation, whereby we rise above ourselves, we as it were fly heavenwards.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Isti sunt triumphatóres et amíci Dei, qui contemnéntes iussa príncipum, meruérunt prǽmia ætérna:

℟. These are they which have conquered, and are become the friends of God, who recked not of the commandments of princes, and earned the everlasting reward.

* Modo coronántur, et accípiunt palmam.

* And now have they crowns on their heads, and palms in their hands.

℣. Isti sunt qui venérunt ex magna tribulatióne, et lavérunt stolas suas in sánguine Agni.

℣. These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes in the blood of the Lamb.

℟. Modo coronántur, et accípiunt palmam.

℟. And now have they crowns on their heads, and palms in their hands.

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

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

℟. Modo coronántur, et accípiunt palmam.

℟. And now have they crowns on their heads, and palms in their hands.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum

From the Holy Gospel according to Matthew

Matt 9:9-13

Matt 9:1-13

In illo témpore: Vidit Iesus hóminem sedéntem in telónio, Matthǽum nómine, et ait illi: Séquere me. Et réliqua.

At that time, Jesus saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom; and He saith unto him Follow Me. And so on.

Homilía sancti Hierónymi Presbýteri

Homily by St. Jerome, Priest at Bethlehem.

Liber 1 Comment. in Matth. cap. 9

Bk. i. Comment, on Matth. ix.

Céteri Evangelístæ, propter verecúndiam et honórem Matthǽi, noluérunt eum nómine appelláre vulgáto, sed dixérunt, Levi; dúplici quippe vocábulo fuit. Ipse autem Matthǽus (secúndum illud quod dícitur a Salomóne: Iustus accusátor est sui in princípio sermónis; et in álio loco: Dic tu peccáta tua, ut iustificéris) Matthǽum se et publicanum nóminat, ut osténdat legéntibus nullum debére salútem desperáre, si ad melióra convérsus sit, cum ipse de publicáno in Apóstolum sit repénte mutátus.

The other Evangelists, out of tenderness towards the reputation and honour of Matthew, have abstained from speaking of him as a publican by his ordinary name, and have called him Levi. Both names were his. But Matthew himself, according to what Solomon saith: The just man is the first to accuse himself, Prov. xviii. 17, and again, in another place: Declare thou thy sins that thou mayest be justified, doth plainly call himself Matthew the publican, to show unto his readers that none need be hopeless of salvation if he will but strive to do better, since he himself had been all of a sudden changed from a publican into an Apostle.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Isti sunt qui vivéntes in carne, plantavérunt Ecclésiam sánguine suo:

℟. These are they who while yet they lived in the flesh, planted the Church in their own blood;

* Cálicem Dómini bibérunt, et amíci Dei facti sunt.

* They drank of the Lord's cup, and became the friends of God.

℣. In omnem terram exívit sonus eórum, et in fines orbis terræ verba eórum.

℣. Their sound is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.

℟. Cálicem Dómini bibérunt, et amíci Dei facti sunt.

℟. They drank of the Lord's cup, and became the friends of God.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

℣. Grant, Lord, a blessing.

Benedictio. Cuius festum cólimus, ipse intercédat pro nobis ad Dóminum.

Benediction. He whose feast-day we are keeping, be our Advocate with God.

℟. Amen.

℟. Amen.

Arguit in hoc loco Porphýrius, et Iuliánus Augústus, vel imperítiam histórici mentiéntis, vel stultítiam eórum qui statim secúti sint Salvatórem, quasi irrationabíliter quémlibet vocántem hóminem sint secúti; cum tantæ virtútes tántaque signa præcésserint, quæ Apóstolos, ántequam créderent, vidísse non dubium est. Certe fulgor ipse et maiéstas Divinitátis occúltæ, quæ étiam in humána fácie relucébat, ex primo ad se vidéntes tráhere póterat aspéctu. Si enim in magnéte lápide et súccinis hæc esse vis dícitur, ut ánulos et stípulam et festúcas sibi cópulent; quanto magis Dóminus ómnium creaturárum ad se tráhere póterat, quos vocábat?

Porphyry and the Emperor Julian (the Apostate) will have it that the account of this call of Matthew is either a stupid blunder on the part of a lying writer, or else that it showeth what fools they were who followed the Saviour, to go senselessly after any one who called them. But there can be no doubt that before the Apostles believed they had considered the great signs and works of power which had gone before. Moreover, the glory and majesty of the hidden God, which shone somewhat through the Face of the Man Christ Jesus, were enough to draw them which gazed thereon, even at first sight. For if there be in a stone a magnetic power which can make rings and straws and rods come and cleave thereunto, how much more must not the Lord of all creatures have been able to draw unto Himself them whom He called?

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Isti sunt viri sancti, quos elégit Dóminus in caritáte non ficta, et dedit illis glóriam sempitérnam:

℟. These men are saints, whom the Lord hath chosen in love unfeigned, and hath given them glory everlasting. These are they

* Quorum doctrína fulget Ecclésia, ut sole luna.

* By the light of whose teaching the Church is glorified, even as the moon is glorified by the light of the sun.

℣. Sancti per fidem vicérunt regna: operáti sunt iustítiam.

℣. The saints through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness.

℟. Quorum doctrína fulget Ecclésia, ut sole luna.

℟. By the light of whose teaching the Church is glorified, even as the moon is glorified by the light of the sun.

Et factum est, discumbénte eo in domo, ecce multi publicáni et peccatóres veniéntes discumbébant cum Iesu. Vidébant publicanum, a peccátis ad melióra convérsum, locum invenísse pœniténtiæ; et ob id étiam ipsi non despérant salútem. Neque vero in pristínis vítiis permanéntes véniunt ad Iesum, ut pharisǽi et scribæ múrmurant, sed pœniténtiam agéntes, ut sequens Dómini sermo signíficat, dicens: Misericórdiam volo, et non sacrifícium; non enim veni vocáre iustos, sed peccatóres. Ibat autem Dóminus ad convívia peccatórum, ut occasiónem habéret docéndi, et spirituáles invitatóribus suis præbéret cibos.

And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with Him. They saw how that a publican who had turned to better things had found a place of repentance, and therefore they also hoped for salvation. It was not, as the Scribes and Pharisees complained, sinners clinging to their sinfulness who came to Jesus, but sinners repenting, as indeed appeareth from the next words of the Lord, where He saith: I will have mercy and not sacrifice; for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. The Lord went to eat with sinners to the end that He might have occasion to teach, and to break spiritual bread unto them which bade Him.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

108:29 Let them that detract me be clothed with shame: * and let them be covered with their confusion as with a double cloak.

2 Of stones squared and hewed: he made the walls thereof seventy cubits broad, and thirty cubits high, and the towers thereof he made a hundred cubits high. But on the square of them, each side was extended the space of twenty feet.

3 Per quadrum vero eárum latus utrúmque vicenórum pedum spátio tendebátur; posuítque portas eius in altitúdinem túrrium;

3 And he made the gates thereof according to the height of the towers:

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam

From the Holy Gospel according to Luke

Luc 7:11-16

Luke 7:11-16

In illo témpore: Ibat Iesus in civitátem, quæ vocátur Naim; et ibant cum eo discípuli eius, et turba copiósa. Et réliqua.

At that time: Jesus went into a city called Nain and His disciples went with Him, and much people. And so on.

Homilía sancti Augustíni Epíscopi

Homily by St. Augustine, Bishop of Hippo

Sermo 44 de verbis Domini, circa initium

44th Discourse on the Words of the Lord

De iúvene illo resuscitáto gavísa est mater vídua; de homínibus in spíritu cotídie suscitátis gaudet mater Ecclésia. Ille quidem mórtuus erat córpore; illi autem mente. Illíus mors visíbilis visibíliter plangebátur; illórum mors invisíbilis nec quærebátur, nec videbátur. Quæsívit ille, qui nóverat mórtuos. Ille solus nóverat mórtuos, qui póterat fácere vivos. Nisi enim ad mórtuos suscitándos venísset, Apóstolus non díceret: Surge, qui dormis, et exsúrge a mórtuis, et illuminábit te Christus.

That her son was called again to life was the joy of that widowed mother; that souls of men are every day called to life is the joy of our Mother the Church. He was dead in body they have been dead in mind. His death was outward, and was outwardly bewailed; their inward. Death hath been neither mourned for nor seen. But He hath sought for them, Who hath seen that they are dead, and He only hath seen that they are dead, Who hath been able to make them alive. If He had not come to raise the dead, the Apostle had not said: “Awake, thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.” Eph. v. 14.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

1 Fílii Israël, qui habitábant in terra Iuda, timuérunt valde a fácie Holoférnis;

1 Then the children of Israel, who dwelt in the land of Juda, hearing these things, were exceedingly afraid of him.

2 Tremor et horror invásit sensus eórum, ne hoc fáceret Ierúsalem et templo Dómini, quod fécerat céteris civitátibus et templis eárum.

2 Dread and horror seized upon their minds, lest he should do the same to Jerusalem and to the temple of the Lord, that he had done to other cities and their temples.

3 Et misérunt in omnem Samaríam per circúitum usque Iéricho et præoccupavérunt omnes vértices móntium

3 And they sent into all Samaria round about, as far as Jericho, and seized upon all the tops of the mountains:

4 Et muris circumdedérunt vicos suos et congregavérunt fruménta in præparatiónem pugnæ.

4 And they compassed their towns with walls, and gathered together corn for provision for war.

Jdt 4:5-8

5 Sacérdos étiam Elíachim scripsit ad univérsos qui erant contra Esdrelon, quæ est contra fáciem campi magni iuxta Dóthain, et univérsos per quos viæ tránsitus esse póterat,

5 And Eliachim the priest wrote to all that were over against Esdrelon, which faceth the great plain near Dothain, and to all by whom there might be a passage of way, that they should take possession of the ascents of the mountains, by which there might be any way to Jerusalem, and should keep watch where the way was narrow between the mountains.

6 Ut obtinérent ascénsus móntium, per quos via esse póterat ad Ierúsalem, et illic custodírent ubi angústum iter esse póterat inter montes.

6 And the children of Israel did as the priest of the Lord Eliachim had appointed them,

7 Et fecérunt fílii Israël secúndum quod constitúerat eis sacérdos Dómini Elíachim.

7 And all the people cried to the Lord with great earnestness, and they humbled their souls in fastings, and prayers, both they and their wives.

8 Et clamávit omnis pópulus ad Dóminum instántia magna, et humiliavérunt ánimas suas in ieiúniis et oratiónibus, ipsi et mulíeres eórum.

8 And the priests put on haircloths, and they caused the little children to lie prostrate before the temple of the Lord, and the altar of the Lord they covered with haircloth.

Jdt 4:9-12

9 Et induérunt se sacerdótes cilíciis, et infántes prostravérunt contra fáciem templi Dómini, et altáre Dómini operuérunt cilício;

9 And they cried to the Lord the God of Israel with one accord, that their children might not be made a prey, and their wives carried off, and their cities destroyed, and their holy things profaned, and that they might not be made a reproach to the Gentiles.

10 Et clamavérunt ad Dóminum Deum Israël unanímiter, ne daréntur in prædam infántes eórum, et uxóres eórum in divisiónem, et civitátes eórum in extermínium, et sancta eórum in pollutiónem, et fíerent oppróbrium géntibus.

10 Then Eliachim the high priest of the Lord went about all Israel and spoke to them,

11 Tunc Elíachim sacérdos Dómini magnus circuívit omnem Israël allocutúsque est eos,

11 Saying: Know ye that the Lord will hear your prayers, if you continue with perseverance in fastings and prayers in the sight of the Lord.

12 Dicens: Scitóte quóniam exáudiet Dóminus preces vestras, si manéntes permanséritis in ieiúniis et oratiónibus in conspéctu Dómini.

12 Remember Moses the servant of the Lord, who overcame Amalec that trusted in his own strength, and in his power, and in his army, and in his shields, and in his chariots, and in his horsemen, not by fighting with the sword, but by holy prayers:

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

Linus Póntifex, Volatérris in Etrúria natus, primus post Petrum gubernávit Ecclésiam. Cuius tanta fides et sánctitas fuit, ut non solum dǽmones eíceret, sed étiam mórtuos revocáret ad vitam. Scripsit res gestas beáti Petri, et ea máxime quæ ab illo acta sunt contra Simónem magum. Sancívit ne qua múlier, nisi veláto cápite, in ecclésiam introíret. Huic Pontífici caput amputátum est ob constántiam fídei, iussu Saturníni ímpii et ingratíssimi consuláris, cuius fíliam a dǽmonum vexatióne liberáverat. Sepúltus est in Vaticáno prope sepúlcrum Príncipis Apostolórum, nono caléndas octóbris. Sedit annos úndecim, menses duos, dies vigínti tres, creátis, bis mense decémbri, epíscopis quíndecim, presbýteris decem et octo.

Pope Linus was by birth a native of Velletri in Tuscany, and was the immediate successor of Peter in the government of the Church. His faith and holiness were such that he not only cast out devils, but also raised the dead. He wrote the acts of Blessed Peter, and especially the history of his strife with Simon Magus. He forbade women to enter the Church without having a veil upon their heads. His own head was cut off, on account of his firmness in confessing Christ, by command of the godless Consul Saturninus, an unthankful wretch whose own daughter he had delivered from being tormented by a devil. He was buried upon the Vatican Mount, hard by the grave of the Prince of the Apostles, upon the 23rd day of September. He sat as Pope eleven years, two months, and twenty-three days. He held two December ordinations, wherein he made fifteen Bishops, and eighteen Priests.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

10 Et factum est, in quarto die Holoférnes fecit cenam servis suis et dixit ad Vágao eunúchum suum: Vade, et suáde Hebrǽam illam ut sponte conséntiat habitáre mecum.

10 And it came to pass on the fourth day, that Holofernes made a supper for his servants, and said to Vagao his eunuch: go, and persuade that Hebrew woman, to consent of her own accord to dwell with me.

11 Fœdum est enim apud Assýrios, si fémina irrídeat virum agéndo ut immúnis ab eo tránseat.

11 For it is looked upon as shameful among the Assyrians, if a woman mock a man, by doing so as to pass free from him.

12 Tunc introívit Vágao ad Iudith et dixit: Non vereátur bona puélla introíre ad dóminum meum, ut honorificétur ante fáciem eius, ut mandúcet cum eo et bibat vinum in iucunditáte.

12 Then Vagao went in to Judith, and said: Let not my good maid be afraid to go in to my lord, that she may be honoured before his face, that she may eat with him and drink wine and be merry.

13 Cui Iudith respóndit: Quæ ego sum, ut contradícam dómino meo?

13 And Judith answered him: Who am I, that I should gainsay my lord?

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

4 But Holofernes lay on his bed, fast asleep, being exceedingly drunk.

5 Dixítque Iudith puéllæ suæ ut staret foris ante cubículum, et observáret.

5 And Judith spoke to her maid to stand without before the chamber, and to watch:

6 Stetítque Iudith ante lectum orans cum lácrimis et labiórum motu in siléntio,

6 And Judith stood before the bed praying with tears, and the motion of her lips in silence,

7 Dicens: Confírma me, Dómine Deus Israël, et réspice in hac hora ad ópera mánuum meárum, ut, sicut promisísti, Ierúsalem civitátem tuam érigas, et hoc quod credens per te posse fíeri cogitávi, perfíciam.

7 Saying: Strengthen me, O Lord God of Israel, and in this hour look on the works of my hands, that as thou hast promised, thou mayst raise up Jerusalem thy city: and that I may bring to pass that which I have purposed, having a belief that it might be done by thee.

78:1 O God, the heathens are come into thy inheritance, they have defiled thy holy temple: * they have made Jerusalem as a place to keep fruit.

1 And when all the army heard that Holofernes was beheaded, courage and counsel fled from them, and being seized with trembling and fear they thought only to save themselves by flight:

2 Ita ut nullus loquerétur cum próximo suo, sed inclináto cápite, relíctis ómnibus, evádere festinábant Hebrǽos, quos armátos super se veníre audiébant, fugiéntes per vias campórum et sémitas cóllium.

2 So that no one spoke to his neighbor, but hanging down the head, leaving all things behind, they made haste to escape from the Hebrews, who, as they heard, were coming armed upon them, and fled by the ways of the fields, and the paths of the hills.

3 Vidéntes ítaque fílii Israël fugiéntes, secúti sunt illos, descenderúntque clangéntes tubis et ululántes post ipsos.

3 So the children of Israel seeing them fleeing, followed after them. And they went down sounding with trumpets and shouting after them.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Nos álium Deum nescímus præter Dóminum, in quo sperámus:

℟. We know no strange God before the Lord. In Him we trust.

* Qui non déspicit nos, nec ámovet salútem suam a génere nostro.

* He despiseth us not, neither putteth He away His salvation from our nation.

℣. Indulgéntiam ipsíus fusis lácrimis postulémus, et humiliémus illi ánimas nostras.

℣. His mercy let us seek with tears, and humble our souls before Him.

5 Misit ítaque Ozías núntios per omnes civitátes et regiónes Israël.

5 And Ozias sent messengers through all the cities and countries of Israel.

6 Omnis ítaque regio omnísque urbs eléctam iuventútem armátam misit post eos; et persecúti sunt eos in ore gládii, quoúsque pervenírent ad extremitátem fínium suórum.

6 And every country, and every city, sent their chosen young men armed after them, and they pursued them with the edge of the sword until they came to the extremities of their confines.

7 Réliqui autem qui erant in Bethúlia, ingréssi sunt castra Assyriórum, et prædam, quam fugiéntes Assýrii relíquerant, abstulérunt, et onustáti sunt valde.

10 Quæ cum exísset ad illum, benedixérunt eam omnes una voce, dicéntes: Tu glória Ierúsalem, tu lætítia Israël, tu honorificéntia pópuli nostri.

10 And when she was come out to him, they all blessed her with one voice, saying: Thou art the glory of Jerusalem, thou art the joy of Israel, thou art the honour of our people:

11 Quia fecísti viríliter, et confortátum est cor tuum, eo quod castitátem amáveris et, post virum tuum, álterum nescíeris, ídeo et manus Dómini confortávit te, et ídeo eris benedícta in ætérnum.

11 For thou hast done manfully, and thy heart has been strengthened, because thou hast loved chastity, and after thy husband hast not known any other: therefore also the hand of the Lord hath strengthened thee, and therefore thou shalt be blessed for ever.

Cosmas et Damiánus, fratres Arabes, in Ægéa urbe nati, nóbiles médici, imperatóribus Diocletiáno et Maximiáno, non magis medicínæ sciéntia quam Christi virtúte, morbis étiam insanabílibus medebántur. Quorum religiónem cum Lýsias præféctus cognovísset, addúci eos ad se iubet, ac de vivéndi institúto et de fídei professióne interrogátos, cum se et Christiános esse, et christiánam fidem esse ad salútem necessáriam, líbere prædicárent, deos venerári ímperat; et, si id recúsent, minátur cruciátus et necem acerbíssimam. Verum, ut se frustra hæc illis propónere intéllegit: Colligáte, inquit, manus et pedes istórum, eósque exquisítis torquéte supplíciis. Quibus iussa exsequéntibus, nihilóminus Cosmas et Damiánus in senténtia persistébant. Quare, ut erant vincti, in profúndum mare iaciúntur. Unde cum salvi ac solúti essent egréssi, mágicis ártibus præféctus factum assígnans, in cárcerem tradit, ac postrídie edúctos in ardéntem rogum ínici iubet; ubi, cum ab ipsis flamma refúgeret, várie et crudéliter tortos secúri pércuti vóluit. Itaque, in Iesu Christi confessióne, martýrii palmam accepérunt.

Cosmas and Damian, who were eminent physicians in the time of the Emperors Diocletian and Maximian, were brothers, and Arabs by race, but born in the city of Aegea in Cilicia. Not more by their knowledge of medicine than by the power of Christ they healed diseases which had been hopeless for others. When the Prefect Lysias learnt to what faith they belonged, he commanded them to be brought before him, and questioned them as to their way of life, and the confession of their religion; and then, forasmuch as they freely owned themselves Christians and the Christian faith needful to salvation, he commanded them to worship the gods, under threats of torments and a most cruel death. But when he found that it was but in vain to lay such things before them, he said: Bind their hands and feet together, and put them to the sharpest of the question. And he was obeyed, but nevertheless Cosmas and Damian abode still of the same mind. Therefore they were cast into the depth of the sea, bound as they were, but they came forth again, whole and unbound. The Prefect, therefore, who would have it that it came to pass so by force of art magic, cast them into prison. On the morrow he haled them forth again, and bade cast them upon a great fire, but the flame turned away from them. He was pleased then to have them tormented in diverse and cruel sorts, and lastly, smitten with the axe. Thus did they bear witness for Christ Jesus even until they grasped the palm of their testimony.

Wencesláus, Bohémiæ dux, Wratisláo patre Christiáno, Drahomíra matre gentíli natus, ab ávia Ludmílla fémina sanctíssima pie educátus, omni virtútum génere insígnis, summo stúdio virginitátem per omnem vitam servávit illibátam. Mater, per nefáriam Ludmíllæ necem regni administratiónem assecúta, ímpie cum iunióre fílio Bolesláo vivens, concitávit in se prócerum indignatiónem; quare, ímpii regíminis pertǽsi, utriúsque excússo iugo, Wencesláum in urbe Pragénsi regem salutárunt. Qui regnum pietáte magis quam império gubernávit, in egénis et afflíctis sublevándis solers et assíduus. Summa religióne sacerdótes venerátus, suis ipse mánibus tríticum serébat et vinum exprimébat, in Missæ sacrifício adhibénda. Cum vero ab imperatóre régiis insígnibus decorátus fuísset, ab ímpio fratre, matris suásu, orans in ecclésia interféctus est. Sanguis eius per paríetes aspérsus adhuc conspícitur.

Wenceslas, Duke of Bohemia, was the son of Wratislas, who was a Christian, and Drahomira, a pagan, and was brought up in a devout way by his grandmother, Ludmilla, a most holy woman. He was famed for all kinds of virtue and took great care to keep his virginity intact throughout his life. The brutal murder of his grandmother, Ludmilla, left his mother secure in the administration of the kingdom. The irreligious life of Drahomira and her younger son, Boleslas, aroused the indignation of the nobles. Weary of this godless rule, they threw off the yoke of Drahomira and Boleslas and hailed Wenceslas as ruler in the city of Prague. He ruled the kingdom more by love than by power, and was careful and constant in relieving the needy and the afflicted. He honoured Priests with the highest veneration, and with his own hands sowed the wheat and pressed the wine to be used for the Sacrifice of the Mass. When he had been decorated by the Emperor with royal insígnia, his wicked brother, at the instigation of his mother, killed him while he was praying in a church. His blood may still be seen sprinkled upon the walls.

Sermo sancti Gregórii Papæ

From the Sermons of Pope St. Gregory the Great

Homil. 34 in Evang. ante medium

34th on the Gospels

Novem Angelórum órdines dícimus, quia vidélicet esse, testánte sacro elóquio, scimus: Angelos, Archángelos, Virtútes, Potestátes, Principátus, Dominatiónes, Thronos, Chérubim atque Séraphim. Esse namque Angelos et Archángelos pene omnes sacri elóquii páginæ testántur. Chérubim vero atque Séraphim sæpe, ut notum est, libri prophetárum loquúntur. Quátuor quoque órdinum nómina Paulus Apóstolus ad Ephésios enúmerat, dicens: Supra omnem Principátum, et Potestátem, et Virtútem, et Dominatiónem. Qui rursus ad Colossénses scribens, ait: Sive Throni, sive Potestátes, sive Principátus, sive Dominatiónes. Dum ergo illis quátuor, quæ ad Ephésios dixit, coniungúntur Throni, quinque sunt órdines; quibus dum Angeli et Archángeli, Chérubim atque Séraphim adiúncta sunt, procul dúbio novem esse Angelórum órdines inveniúntur.

We say that there are nine Orders of Angels, for, by the witness of the holy Word, we know that there be Angels, Archangels, Mights, Powers, Principalities, Dominions, Thrones, Cherubim, and Seraphim. Nearly every page of the holy Word witnesseth that there be Angels and Archangels. The books of the Prophets, as is well known, do oftentimes make mention of Cherubim and Seraphim. Paul, writing to the Ephesians, i. 21, counteth up the names of four Orders, where he saith: “The Father of glory raised (Christ) from the dead, and set Him at His own right hand in the heavenly places, far above all Principality, and Power, and Might, and Dominion, (and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come.)” And the same, again, writing to the Colossians, i. 16, saith: “By (the Son) were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be Thrones, or Dominions, or Principalities, or Powers; (all things were created by Him and for Him.)” If, then, we add the Thrones to the four Orders of which he spake unto the Ephesians, we have five Orders; and when we add unto them the Angels and the Archangels, the Cherubim and the Seraphim, we find that the Orders of Angels are beyond all doubt nine.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Hic est Míchaël Archángelus, princeps milítiæ Angelórum,

℟. This is Michael, who to battle leads the armies of the skies

* Cuius honor præstat benefícia populórum, et orátio perdúcit ad regna cælórum.

* Whosoever on him calleth blessed within his wardship lies. His a prayer whose voice availing aids from earth toward heaven to rise.

℣. Archángelus Míchaël præpósitus paradísi, quem honoríficant Angelórum cives.

℣. The Archangel Michael is the Vice-Roy of Paradise, and the Angels that are the dwellers therein, do hold him in worship.

℟. Cuius honor præstat benefícia populórum, et orátio perdúcit ad regna cælórum.

℟. Whosoever on him calleth blessed within his wardship lies. His a prayer whose voice availing aids from earth toward heaven to rise.

Sciéndum vero quod Angelórum vocábulum nomen est offícii, non natúræ. Nam sancti illi cæléstis pátriæ Spíritus, semper quidem sunt Spíritus, sed semper vocári Angeli nequáquam possunt; quia tunc solum sunt Angeli, cum per eos áliqua nuntiántur. Unde et per Psalmístam dícitur: Qui facit Angelos suos spíritus; ac si paténter dicat: Qui eos, quos semper habet Spíritus, étiam, cum volúerit, Angelos facit. Hi autem qui mínima núntiant, Angeli; qui vero summa annúntiant, Archángeli vocántur. Hinc est enim quod ad Maríam Vírginem non quílibet Angelus, sed Gábriel Archángelus míttitur. Ad hoc quippe ministérium, summum Angelum veníre dignum fúerat, qui summum ómnium nuntiábat. Qui idcírco étiam privátis nomínibus censéntur, ut signétur per vocábula, étiam in operatióne quid váleant. Míchaël namque, Quis ut Deus? Gábriel autem, Fortitúdo Dei; Ráphaël vero dícitur Medicína Dei.

But we must know that the word Angel is the designation, not of a nature, but of an office. Those holy spirits in the heavenly fatherland are always spirits, but they may no wise be always called Angels, (which is, being interpreted, messengers,) for they are Angels only when they are sent as Messengers. Hence also it is said by the Psalmist: ciii. 5, Who makest spirits thine Angels! As if it were: Of them who are always with Him as spirits, He doth somewhiles make use as Messengers. They who go on the lesser messages are called Angels they who go on the greater Archangels. Hence it is that unto the Virgin Mary was sent no common Angel, but the Archangel Gabriel. For the delivery of this, the highest message, it was meet that there should be sent the highest Angel. Their individual names also are so given as to signify the kind of ministry wherein each is powerful. Michael signifieth: Who-is-like-unto-God? Gabriel, the Strength-of-God, and Raphael, the Medicine-of-God.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Venit Míchaël Archángelus cum multitúdine Angelórum, cui trádidit Deus ánimas Sanctórum,

℟. Where Angels lead the spirits of the blessed dead the glad procession moves with Michael at its head

* Ut perdúcat eas in paradísum exsultatiónis.

* To lead them into the garden of Eden.

℣. Emítte, Dómine, Spíritum sanctum tuum de cælis, spíritum sapiéntiæ et intelléctus.

℣. Lord, send thy Holy Spirit from heaven the Spirit of wisdom and understanding.

℟. Ut perdúcat eas in paradísum exsultatiónis.

℟. To lead them into the garden of Eden.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

℣. Grant, Lord, a blessing.

Benedictio. Ignem sui amóris accéndat Deus in córdibus nostris.

Et quóties miræ virtútis áliquid ágitur, Míchaël mitti perhibétur; ut ex ipso actu et nómine detur intéllegi quia nullus potest fácere, quod fácere prǽvalet Deus. Unde et ille antíquus hostis, qui Deo esse per supérbiam símilis concupívit, dicens: In cælum conscéndam, super astra cæli exaltábo sólium meum, símilis ero Altíssimo; dum in fine mundi in sua virtúte relinquétur extrémo supplício periméndus, cum Michaéle Archángelo præliatúrus esse perhibétur, sicut per Ioánnem dícitur: Factum est prǽlium cum Michaéle Archángelo. Ad Maríam quoque Gábriel míttitur, qui Dei Fortitúdo nominátur; illum quippe nuntiáre veniébat, qui ad debellándas aéreas potestátes húmilis apparére dignátus est. Ráphaël quoque interpretátur, ut díximus, Medicína Dei; quia vidélicet, dum Tobíæ óculos quasi per offícium curatiónis tétigit, cæcitátis eius ténebras tersit.

As often as anything very mighty is to be done, we see that Michael is sent, that by that very thing, and by his name, we may remember that none is able to do as God doeth. Hence that old enemy whose pride hath puffed him up to be fain to be like unto God, even he who said, I will ascend unto heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God. I will be like the Most High, Isa. xiv. 13, 14, this old enemy, when at the end of the world he is about to perish in the last death, having no strength but his own, is shown unto us a-fighting with Michael the Archangel, even as saith John, Apoc. xii. 7: There was war in heaven Michael and his Angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels. Unto Mary is sent Gabriel, whose name is interpreted the Strength of God, for he came to herald the appearing of Him Who was content to appear lowly that He might fight down the powers of the air. Raphael, also, as we have said, signifieth the Medicine-of-God, and it is the name of him who touched as a physician the eyes of Tobias, and cleared away his blindness.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. In témpore illo consúrget Míchaël, qui stat pro fíliis vestris:

℟. At that time shall Michael stand up, which standeth for your children.

* Et véniet tempus, quale non fuit, ex quo gentes esse cœpérunt, usque ad illud.

* And there shall be a time, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time.

℣. In témpore illo salvábitur pópulus tuus omnis, qui invéntus fúerit scriptus in libro vitæ.

℣. At that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the Book of Life.

℟. Et véniet tempus, quale non fuit, ex quo gentes esse cœpérunt, usque ad illud.

℟. And there shall be a time, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time.

102:13 Quómodo miserétur pater filiórum, misértus est Dóminus timéntibus se: * quóniam ipse cognóvit figméntum nostrum.

102:13 As a father hath compassion on his children, so hath the Lord compassion on them that fear him: * for he knoweth our frame.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum

From the Holy Gospel according to Matthew

Matt 18:1-10

Matt 18:1-10

In illo témpore: Accessérunt discípuli ad Iesum, dicéntes: Quis, putas, maior est in regno cælórum? Et réliqua.

At that time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying: Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? And so on.

Homilía sancti Hierónymi Presbýteri

Homily by St. Jerome, Priest (at Bethlehem)

Lib. 3 Comm. in cap. 18 Matth.

Bk. iii Comm. on Matth. xviii

Post invéntum statérem, post tribúta réddita, quid sibi vult Apostolórum repentína interrogátio, Quis, putas, maior est in regno cælórum? Quia víderant pro Petro et Dómino idem tribútum rédditum, ex æqualitáte prétii arbitráti sunt Petrum ómnibus Apóstolis esse prælátum, qui in redditióne tribúti Dómino fúerat comparátus; ídeo intérrogant quis maior sit in regno cælórum. Vidénsque Iesus cogitatiónes eórum, et causas erróris intéllegens, vult desidérium glóriæ, humilitátis contentióne, sanáre.

After the finding of the piece of money in the fish's mouth, after the payment of the tribute, what meaneth this sudden question of the Apostles? Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? They had seen that the same tribute-money was paid for Peter as for the Lord, and from this equality of reckoning they gathered that Peter was Prince of all the Apostles, seeing that he had been appraised at the same price as his Master. Therefore they ask, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? And Jesus, seeing their thoughts, and understanding wherefore they erred, is fain to take away the desire of glory by the love of lowliness.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. In conspéctu géntium nolíte timére; vos enim in córdibus vestris adoráte et timéte Dóminum;

℟. Be not ye afraid before the Gentiles, but in your hearts, worship ye the Lord, and fear Him

* Angelus enim eius vobíscum est.

* For His Angel is with you.

℣. Stetit Angelus iuxta aram templi, habens thuríbulum áureum in manu sua.

℣. An Angel stood at the Altar of the Temple, having a golden censer in his hand.

℟. Angelus enim eius vobíscum est.

℟. For His Angel is with you.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

℣. Grant, Lord, a blessing.

Benedictio. Quorum festum cólimus, ipsi intercédant pro nobis ad Dóminum.

Benediction. They whose feast-day we are keeping, be our Advocates with God.

℟. Amen.

℟. Amen.

Si autem manus tua vel pes tuus scandalízat te, abscínde eum et próice abs te. Necésse est quidem veníre scándala; væ tamen ei est hómini, qui, quod necésse est ut fiat in mundo, vítio suo facit ut per se fiat. Igitur omnis truncátur afféctus et univérsa propínquitas amputátur, ne per occasiónem pietátis unusquísque credéntium scándalis páteat. Si, inquit, ita est quis tibi coniúnctus, ut manus, pes, óculus; et est útilis atque sollícitus, et acútus ad perspiciéndum, scándalum autem tibi facit, et propter dissonántiam morum te pértrahit in gehénnam: mélius est ut et propinquitáte eius et emoluméntis carnálibus cáreas, ne, dum vis lucri fácere cognátos et necessários, causam hábeas ruinárum.

Therefore, if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast them from thee for it must needs be that offences come, but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh! because by his sin he maketh, and maketh to be his own work, that which must needs be in the world. Away, then, with every affection and every kinship, lest thy love should throw a stumbling-block before a single believer. Be there any, saith He, who is as near to thee as thine hand, thy foot, or thine eye, useful, careful, far-seeing, but who layeth a stumbling-block before thee, and whose diverse way of life may draw thee to hell it is better for thee to lose such an one and thy worldly happiness with him, than to live surrounded by them that are near and needful to thee, and to pile up unto thyself damnation.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Míchaël Archángelus venit in adiutórium pópulo Dei,

℟. The Archangel Michael came to help God's people.

* Stetit in auxílium pro animábus iustis.

Dico vobis quia Angeli eórum in cælis semper vident fáciem Patris mei. Supra díxerat, per manum et pedem et óculum, omnes propinquitátes et necessitúdines, quæ scándalum fácere póterant, amputándas; austeritátem, ítaque senténtiæ subiécto præcépto témperat, dicens: Vidéte ne contemnátis unum ex pusíllis istis. Sic, inquit, præcípio severitátem, ut commiscéri cleméntiam dóceam. Quia Angeli eórum in cælis vident semper fáciem Patris. Magna dígnitas animárum, ut unaquǽque hábeat ab ortu nativitátis, in custódiam sui, Angelum delegátum. Unde légimus in Apocalýpsi Ioánnis: Angelo Ephesi, et reliquárum ecclesiárum, scribe hæc. Apóstolus quoque prǽcipit velári cápita, in ecclésiis, feminárum propter Angelos.

I say unto you that in heaven their angels do always behold the face of My Father. Above, He had said that every tie of kinship or of convenience which might become a stumbling-block, albeit close and needful as hand, or foot, or eye, was to be cut off, but here He softeneth the hardness of that precept: Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones. Hardness, saith He, I command not save as teaching tenderness withal; in heaven their Angels do always behold the face of My Father. Oh, how great is the dignity of souls, whereof every one hath from its birth an Angel appointed to guard it! Hence, we read in the Revelation of John unto the Angel of the Church of Ephesus, (and so of the others,) write, ii. I And the Apostle (Paul) also saith: The woman (that is, in the Church) ought to have a covering on her head, because of the Angels. i Cor. xi. 10.

Esth 2:8-11

8 Cumque percrebuísset regis impérium, et iuxta mandátum illíus multæ pulchræ vírgines adduceréntur Susan et Egéo traderéntur eunúcho; Esther quoque inter céteras puéllas ei trádita est, ut servarétur in número feminárum.

8 And when the king's ordinance was noised abroad, and according to his commandment many beautiful virgins were brought to Susan, and were delivered to Egeus the eunuch: Esther also among the rest of the maidens was delivered to him to be kept in the number of the women.

9 Quæ plácuit ei et invénit grátiam in conspéctu illíus. Et præcépit eunúcho ut acceleráret mundum mulíebrem et tráderet ei partes suas et septem puéllas speciosíssimas de domo regis, et tam ipsam quam pedíssequas eius ornáret atque excóleret.

9 And she pleased him, and found favour in his sight. And he commanded the eunuch to hasten the women's ornaments, and to deliver to her her part, and seven of the most beautiful maidens of the king's house, and to adorn and deck out both her and her waiting maids.

10 Quæ nóluit indicáre ei pópulum et pátriam suam; Mardochǽus enim præcéperat ei, ut de hac re omníno reticéret.

10 And she would not tell him her people nor her country. For Mardochai had charged her to say nothing at all of that:

11 Qui deambulábat cotídie ante vestíbulum domus, in qua eléctæ vírgines servabántur, curam agens salútis Esther.

11 And he walked every day before the court of the house, in which the chosen virgins werre kept, having a care for Esther's welfare, and desiring to know what would befall her.

Esth 2:15-17

Esth 2:15-17

15 Evolúto autem témpore per órdinem, instábat dies quo Esther fília Abíhail fratris Mardochǽi, quam sibi adoptáverat in fíliam, debéret intráre ad regem. Quæ non quæsívit mulíebrem cultum, sed quæcúmque vóluit Egéus eunúchus custos vírginum, hæc ei ad ornátum dedit; erat enim formósa valde et incredíbili pulchritúdine: ómnium óculis gratiósa et amábilis videbátur.

15 And as the time came orderly about, the day was at hand, when Esther, the daughter of Abihail the brother of Mardochai, whom he had adopted for his daughter, was to go in to the king. But she sought not women's ornaments, but whatsoever Egeus the eunuch the keeper of the virgins had a mind, he gave her to adorn her. For she was exceeding fair, and her incredible beauty made her appear agreeable and amiable in the eyes of all.

16 Ducta est ítaque ad cubículum regis Assuéri mense décimo, qui vocátur Tebeth, séptimo anno regni eius.

16 So she was brought to the chamber of king Assuerus the tenth month, which is called Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign.

17 Et adamávit eam rex plus quam omnes mulíeres, habuítque grátiam et misericórdiam coram eo super omnes mulíeres: et pósuit diadéma regni in cápite eius fecítque eam regnáre in loco Vasthi.

17 And the king loved her more than all the women, and she had favour and kindness before him above all the women, and he set the royal crown on her head, and made her queen instead of Vasthi.

Hierónymus, Stridóne in Dalmátia natus, Romæ adoléscens est baptizátus, et liberálibus disciplínis a Donáto et áliis viris doctíssimis erudítus. Religiónis causa, totam lustrávit Palæstínam. Deínde secéssit in vastam Sýriæ solitúdinem, ubi quadriénnium in lectióne divinórum librórum cælestísque beatitúdinis contemplatióne consúmpsit. Présbyter a Paulíno epíscopo Antiochíæ factus et in Palæstínam revérsus, Béthlehem ad Christi Dómini præsépe cæléstem quamdam vitæ ratiónem instítuit, et diáboli insídias piis labóribus ac perpétua lectióne et scriptióne superávit. Tamquam ad oráculum, úndique ad ipsum divínæ Scriptúræ quæstiónes explicándæ referebántur. Illum Dámasus Románus Póntifex et sanctus Augustínus de locis Scriptúræ difficíllimis sæpe consuluérunt propter eius singulárem doctrínam et linguæ non solum Latínæ et Græcæ, sed Hebráicæ étiam et Chaldáicæ intellegéntiam. Vetus Testaméntum ex Hebrǽo convértit; novum, iussu Dámasi, Græcæ fídei rédditum, magna étiam ex parte explicávit. In summa senectúte migrávit in cælum. Eius corpus, ad Béthlehem sepúltum, póstea Romam delátum, in basílica sanctæ Maríæ maióris cónditum fuit.

Jerome, born at Stridon in Dalmatia, was baptized at Rome as a young man and studied the liberal arts with Donatus and other very learned men. In the service of religion, he travelled all over Palestine. Then he retired to the vast Syrian desert, where he spent four years in reading sacred Scripture and in the contemplation of the blessedness of heaven. Ordained priest by Paulinus, Bishop of Antioch, he went back to Palestine. There, near the crib of the Lord Christ in Bethlehem, he led a life patterned after that of heaven itself. He conquered the wiles of the devil with works of devotion and continual reading and writing. Questions on Holy Scripture were referred for explanation to him as to an oracle, being sent to him from all over the world. Pope Damasus and St. Augustine often consulted him on difficult passages in Scripture because of his singular learning and his knowledge not only of Latin and Greek but also of Hebrew and Chaldaic. He translated the Old Testament from the Hebrew; and by command of Pope Damasus, he revised the translation of the New Testament to make it faithful to the Greek text and explained a great part of it. In extreme old age, he made the journey to heaven. His body was buried at Bethlehem and later taken to Rome and buried in the Basilica of St. Mary Major.
