3 Reg 18:21-22

1 Kgs 18:21-22

21 Accédens autem Elías ad omnem pópulum ait: Usquequo claudicátis in duas partes? Si Dóminus est Deus, sequímini eum; si autem Baal, sequímini illum. Et non respóndit ei pópulus verbum.

21 And Elias coming to all the people, said: How long do you halt between two sides? if the Lord be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people did not answer him a word.

22 Et ait rursus Elías ad pópulum: Ego remánsi prophéta Dómini solus, prophétæ autem Baal quadringénti et quinquagínta viri sunt.

22 And Elias said again to the people: I only remain a prophet of the Lord: but the prophets of Baal are four hundred and fifty men.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. My sins are many, yea, they are more in number than the sands of the sea; I am not worthy to look up toward heaven because of the multitude of my iniquities; for I have provoked thee to anger;

* Et malum coram te feci.

* And done evil in thy sight.

℣. Quóniam iniquitátem meam ego cognósco: et delíctum meum contra me est semper, quia tibi soli peccávi.

23 Dentur nobis duo boves; et illi éligant sibi bovem unum, et in frusta cædéntes ponant super ligna, ignem autem non suppónant; et ego fáciam bovem álterum et impónam super ligna, ignem autem non suppónam.

23 Let two bullocks be given us, and let them choose one bullock for themselves, and cut it in pieces and lay it upon wood, but put no fire under: and I will dress the other bullock, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under it.

24 Invocáte nómina deórum vestrórum, et ego invocábo nomen Dómini mei; et Deus, qui exaudíerit per ignem, ipse sit Deus. Respóndens omnis pópulus ait: Optima proposítio.

24 Call ye on the names of your gods, and I will call on the name of my Lord: and the God that shall answer by fire, let him be God. And all the people answering said: A very good proposal.

1 Kgs 18:25-27

25 Dixit ergo Elías prophétis Baal: Elígite vobis bovem unum et fácite primi, quia vos plures estis, et invocáte nómina deórum vestrórum, ignémque non supponátis.

25 Then Elias said to the prophets of Baal: Choose you one bullock and dress it first, because you are many: and call on the names of your gods, but put no fire under.

26 Qui, cum tulíssent bovem quem déderat eis, fecérunt, et invocábant nomen Baal de mane usque ad merídiem, dicéntes: Baal, exáudi nos. Et non erat vox, nec qui respondéret. Transiliebántque altáre quod fécerant.

26 And they took the bullock which he gave them, and dressed it: and they called on the name of Baal from morning even till noon, saying: O Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered: and they leaped over the altar that they had made.

27 Cumque esset iam merídies, illudébat illis Elías, dicens: Clamáte voce maióre.

27 And when it was now noon, Elias jested at them, saying: Cry with a louder voice: for he is a God, and perhaps he is talking, or is in an inn, or on a journey, or perhaps he is asleep, and must be awaked.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

Alfónsus María de Ligório, Neápoli nobílibus paréntibus natus, vix ut adolévit, ægrótis in públicis nosocomíis inservíre ac iugi in templis oratióni vacáre in delíciis habébat. Patri obtémperans, causárum patrocínia suscépit; fori tamen perícula expértus, eiúsmodi vitæ institútum ultro dimísit. Avíta primogenitúra abdicáta, et sacerdótio initiátus, tanto zelo írruit in vítia, ut ingéntes perditórum hóminum conversiónes perágeret. Páuperum præsértim et ruricolárum miserátus, congregatiónem Presbyterórum sanctíssimi Redemptóris ad eórum evangelizatiónem instítuit. Ne autem a propósito umquam divérteret, perpétuo se voto obstrínxit nullam témporis iactúram faciéndi. Domínicæ passiónis et sacræ Eucharístiæ contemplátor assíduus, atque Dei Genetrícis cultor exímius, non semel cæléstis eius protectiónis signis est recreátus. Multa édidit sacra eruditióne ac pietáte reférta, quibus ánimas Christo lucrifácere stúduit. Ab ecclesiásticis dignitátibus sibi oblátis constantíssime abhórruit; apostólica tamen auctoritáte coáctus, sanctæ Agathæ Gothórum ecclésiam gubernándam suscépit. Liberális in páuperes, ómnibus ómnia factus, sanctimoniáles ad perfectiórem vivéndi formam redégit. Episcopátu ob graves habitualésque morbos dimísso, ad suos revértitur. Tandem nonagenárius, innocéntia vitæ et pœniténtia fulgens, anno millésimo septingentésimo octogésimo séptimo placidíssime exspirávit. Eum Pius Papa nonus Ecclésiæ universális Doctórem declarávit, et Pius duodécimus ómnium confessariórum ac moralistárum cæléstem apud Deum Patrónum constítuit.

Born at Naples of noble parents, Alphonsus Mary Liguori as very young man took delight in caring for the sick in the public hospitals and in devoting his spare time to prayer in churches. In obedience to his father he became a lawyer; but when he had experienced the dangers of this kind of career, he abandoned the profession. He renounced his right of inheritance as oldest son and became a priest, attacking vice with such zeal that he obtained the conversions of a great number of sinners. He took special pity on the poor and those living in rural districts and founded the Congregation of Priests of the Most Holy Redeemer to preach the Gospel to them. Lest anything should turn him from his determination, he bound himself by a perpetual vow never to waste any time. Constant in contemplating the Passion of the Lord and the holy Eucharist, he was outstanding in his devotion to the holy Mother of God, being more than once refreshed by signs of her heavenly protection. He wrote many books of religious instruction and of devotion by which he strove to gain souls for Christ. He consistently refused the ecclesiastical honours offered to him, but was compelled by the Holy See to accept the Bishopric of the Church of Santa Agata dei Goti, where he was generous to the poor and made himself all things to all men. He also brought nuns back to a more perfect form of life. Serious chronic illnessses led him to resign the episcopal office and return to his disciples. Finally, at the age of ninety years, radiant with innocence of life and penance, he died a most peaceful death in the year 1787. Pope Pius IX declared him a Doctor of the universal Church, and Pius XII established him as the heavenly patron before God of all confessors and moral theologians.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam

From the Holy Gospel according to Luke

Luc 19:41-47

Luke 19:41-17

In illo témpore: Cum appropinquáret Iesus Ierúsalem, videns civitátem flevit super illam dicens: Quia si cognovísses et tu, et quidem in hac die tua, quæ ad pacem tibi! Nunc autem abscóndita sunt ab óculis tuis. Et réliqua.

At that time: When Jesus was come near to Jerusalem, He beheld the city, and wept over it, saying: If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes. And so on.

Homilía sancti Gregórii Papæ

Homily by Pope St. Gregory the Great.

Homilia 39 in Evangelia

39 on the Gospels.

Quod a flente Dómino illa Ierosolymórum subvérsio descríbitur, quæ a Vespasiáno et Tito Románis princípibus facta est, nullus qui históriam eversiónis eiúsdem legit, ignórat. Románi étenim príncipes denuntiántur, cum dícitur: Quia vénient dies in te, et circúmdabunt te inimíci tui vallo. Hoc quoque quod ádditur: Non relínquent in te lápidem super lápidem: étiam iam ipsa eiúsdem civitátis transmigrátio testátur; quia dum nunc in eo loco constrúcta est, ubi extra portam fúerat Dóminus crucifíxus, prior illa Ierúsalem, ut dícitur, fúnditus est evérsa.

No man that hath read the history of the destruction of Jerusalem by the Roman Princes Vespasian and Titus, can be ignorant that it was of that destruction that the Lord spoke when He wept over the ruin of the city. It is these Princes that are pointed at where it is said “For the days shall come upon thee that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee.” The truth of what followeth: “They shall not leave in thee one stone upon another” is even now fulfilled in the change of site of the city, which hath been re-built round about that place without the gates, where the Lord was crucified, while the ancient city hath been, as I am told, rooted up from the very foundations.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

He fell asleep in peace, [in the year 1221,] upon the sixth day of this present month of August. But his feast is kept upon this day by command of Pope Paul IV.

7 Ne sis sápiens apud temetípsum, time Deum et recéde a malo;

Domínicus, Calarógæ in Hispánia ex nóbili Gusmanórum família natus, et Paléntiæ liberálibus disciplínis et theología erudítus, prius Oxoménsis ecclésiæ canónicus factus, dein órdinis Prædicatórum auctor fuit. Eius ingénium et virtus máxime enituérunt in converténdis hæréticis, qui Tolosátes pervértere conabántur. Romam véniens, ab Innocéntio tértio Pontífice máximo sui órdinis approbatiónem confirmationémque pétiit, quam ab eius successóre Honório tértio impetrávit. Cum vero eius ópera innumerábiles hómines religiósam ac piam vitam institúerent, Bonóniæ, anno ducentésimo vigésimo primo supra millésimum, alúmnis caritátem, humilitátem et paupertátem tamquam certum patrimónium relínquens, in illis verbis: Subveníte, Sancti Dei, occúrrite, Angeli, obdormívit in Dómino, octávo idus augústi. Eum Gregórius Papa nonus in Sanctórum númerum rétulit.

Born at Calaruega in Spain of the noble family of Guzman, Dominic studied the liberal arts and theology at Palencia. At first he was made a canon of the church of Osma; later he became the founder of the Order of Preachers. His genius and virtue were most conspicuous in the conversion of the heretics who were trying to pervert the people of Toulouse. He went to Rome and asked Pope Innocent III to approve and confirm his Order, and obtained this approval from his successor Honorius III. After seeing his efforts bring innumerable men to a religious and holy life, he bequeathed charity, humility and poverty as a solid heritage to his disciples, and fell asleep in the Lord at Bologna on the 6th day of August, 1221, while these words were being said: Come ye to help him, O ye Saints of God! run ye to meet him, O ye Angels! Pope Gregory IX enrolled him among the Saints.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

Prov 5:1-6

1 Fili mi, atténde ad sapiéntiam meam, et prudéntiæ meæ inclína aurem tuam,

1 My son, attend to my wisdom, and incline thy ear to my prudence.

2 Ut custódias cogitatiónes, et disciplínam lábia tua consérvent. Ne atténdas falláciæ mulíeris;

4 Novíssima autem illíus amára quasi absýnthium et acúta quasi gládius biceps;

4 But her end is bitter as wormwood, and sharp as a two-edged sword.

5 Pedes eius descéndunt in mortem, et ad ínferos gressus illíus pénetrant;

5 Her feet go down into death, and her steps go in as far as hell.

6 Per sémitam vitæ non ámbulant, vagi sunt gressus eius et investigábiles.

6 They walk not by the path of life, her steps are wandering, and unaccountable.

21 The Lord beholdeth the ways of man, and considereth all his steps.

22 Iniquitátes suæ cápiunt ímpium, et fúnibus peccatórum suórum constríngitur;

Libério summo Pontífice, Ioánnes patrícius Románus et uxor pari nobilitáte, cum líberos non suscepíssent, suam hereditátem sanctíssimæ Vírgini Dei Matri vovérunt. Quorum preces et vota beáta Virgo benígne áudiens, miráculo comprobávit. Nonis ígitur Augústi, quo témpore in Urbe máximi calóres esse solent, noctu nix partem collis Exquilíni contéxit. Qua nocte Dei mater separátim Ioánnem et cóniugem in somnis admónuit, ut in eo loco ecclésiam ædificárent. Quod Ioánnes ad Libérium Pontíficem détulit, qui idem per sómnium sibi contigísse affirmávit. Quare ad collem venit nive coopértum, et in eo locum ecclésiæ designávit, quæ Ioánnis et uxóris pecúnia exstrúcta est, póstea a Xysto tértio restitúta. Váriis nomínibus appelláta, ut vocábuli étiam excelléntia significarétur, ecclésia sanctæ Maríæ maióris dicta est.

When Liberius was Pope, a Roman patrician named John, and his wife, also of noble birth, having no children to inherit their goods, vowed their inheritance to the most holy Virgin Mother of God. The Blessed Virgin heard their prayers and approved their vow by a miracle. On the 5th of August, which is that time when the heat of summer waxeth greatest in the City, a part of the Esquiline Hill was covered by night with snow. And on that same night, the Mother of God told John and his wife separately in dreams that they should build a church on that place. When John told this to Pope Liberius, he said that he had had the same dream. The Pope therefore went to the snow-covered hill and there marked out a site. The church was built with the money given by John and his wife, and was later restored by Sixtus III. It hath been given various names; but, so that its title may indicate its excellence, it is called the Church of St. Mary Major.

Upon the same day, were born into the better life:

In monte Thabor Transfigurátio Dómini nostri Iesu Christi.

Likewise the holy martyrs Felicissimus and Agapitus, deacons of the aforesaid blessed Xystus, and his subdeacons Januarius, Magnus, Vincent, and Stephen, who were all beheaded along with him, and were buried in the cemetery of Pretextatus. Along with them suffered also the blessed Quartus, as is written by holy Cyprian.

Hi omnes, una cum eódem Pontífice páriter decolláti sunt, atque in Prætextáti cœmetério sepúlti. Passus est étiam cum eis beátus Quartus, ut scribit sanctus Cypriánus.

At Bologna, the birthday of St. Dominic, confessor and founder of the Order of Friars Preachers. He was a man of great renown for holiness and learning. Until death he preserved without stain his virginity, and by the singular grace of his merits raised three dead men to life. By his preaching he curbed heresies, and established many persons in a religious and godly manner of life. He died on this day, but his festival, by an ordinance of Pope Paul IV, is celebrated on August 4.

Bonóniæ natális sancti Domínici Confessóris, qui Ordinis Fratrum Prædicatórum Fundátor éxstitit. Hic vir, sanctitáte et doctrína claríssimus, virginitátem perpétuo illibátam custodívit, et, ob singulárem meritórum grátiam, tres mórtuos suscitávit; cumque prædicatióne sua compressísset hǽreses, ac plúrimos ad religiósam et piam vitam instituísset, in pace quiévit. Eius autem festívitas prídie Nonas mensis huius celebrátur, ex constitutióne Pauli Papæ Quarti.

At Alcala, in Spain, [in the year 304,] the holy brethren Justus and Pastor, both martyrs. They were boys learning at school when they threw away their slates, and ran of their own wish to be martyred. The President Dacian ordered them to be taken and cudgelled, and when they continued to call on each other to stand firm he had them led outside the city, where the executioner cut their throats.

Complúti, in Hispánia, sanctórum Mártyrum Iusti et Pastóris fratrum, qui, cum adhuc púeri lítteris imbueréntur, sponte ad martýrium, proiéctis in schola tábulis, cucurrérunt; et mox, a Daciáno Prǽside tenéri iussi et fústibus cædi, ambo, cum se mútuis exhortatiónibus constantíssime corroborárent, extra civitátem perdúcti sunt, et ibi a carnífice iuguláti.

Sermo sancti Leónis Papæ

From the Sermons of Pope St. Leo (the Great)

Sermo de Transfiguratione, ante medium

On the Transfiguration

Aperit Dóminus coram eléctis téstibus glóriam suam, et commúnem illam cum céteris córporis formam tanto splendóre claríficat, ut et fácies eius solis fulgóri símilis, et vestítus candóri nívium esset æquális. In qua transfiguratióne illud quidem principáliter agebátur, ut de córdibus discipulórum crucis scándalum tollerétur; nec conturbáret eórum fidem voluntáriæ humílitas passiónis, quibus reveláta esset abscónditæ excelléntia dignitátis. Sed non minóre providéntia spes sanctæ Ecclésiæ fundabátur, ut totum Christi corpus agnósceret quali esset commutatióne donándum, ut eius sibi honóris consórtium membra promítterent, qui in cápite præfulsísset.

The Lord taketh chosen witnesses, and in their presence, revealeth His glory. That form of body which He had in common with other men, He so transfigured with light, that His Face did shine as the sun, and His raiment became exceeding white as snow. Of this metamorphosis the chief work was to remove from the hearts of the disciples the stumbling at the Cross. Before their eyes was unveiled the splendour of His hidden majesty, that the lowliness of His freely-chosen suffering might not confound their faith. But none the less was there here laid by the Providence of God a solid foundation for the hope of the Holy Church, whereby the whole body of Christ should know with what a change it is yet to be honoured. The members of that body whose Head hath already been transfigured in light may promise themselves a share in His glory.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Inebriáti sunt ab ubertáte domus tuæ:

℟. They were abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house, and

* Et torrénte voluptátis tuæ potásti eos.

* Thou madest them drink of the river of thy pleasures.

℣. Quóniam apud te est fons vitæ, et in lúmine tuo vidébimus lumen.

℣. For with thee is the fountain of life, and in thy light shall we see light.

℟. Et torrénte voluptátis tuæ potásti eos.

℟. And Thou madest them drink of the river of thy pleasures.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

℣. Grant, Lord, a blessing.

Benedictio. Christus perpétuæ det nobis gáudia vitæ.

Benediction. May Christ to all His people give, for ever in His sight to live.

℟. Amen.

Confirmándis vero Apóstolis et ad omnem sciéntiam provehéndis, ália quoque in illo miráculo accéssit instrúctio. Móyses enim et Elías, lex scílicet et prophétæ apparuérunt cum Dómino loquéntes; ut veríssime in illa quinque virórum præséntia complerétur quod dictum est: in duóbus vel tribus téstibus stat omne verbum. Quid hoc stabílius, quid fírmius verbo, in cuius prædicatióne véteris et novi Testaménti cóncinit tuba, et cum evangélica doctrína, antiquárum protestatiónum instruménta concúrrunt? Astipulántur enim sibi ínvicem utriúsque Fœ́deris páginæ; et, quem sub velámine mysteriórum præcedéntia signa promíserant, maniféstum atque perspícuum præséntis glóriæ splendor osténdit.

For the strengthening the Apostles and bringing them forward into all knowledge, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias that is, the Law and the Prophets talking with Him. Before five witnesses did His glorification take place, as though to fulfill that which is written: At the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the matter be established. Deut. xix. 15. What can be more certain, what can be better attested than this matter, which is proclaimed by the trumpets of both the Old and the New Testaments, and concerning which the witness of ancient testimony uniteth with the teaching of the Gospel? The pages of either Covenant strengthen one another, and the brightness of open glory maketh manifest and distinct Him Whom the former prophecies had promised under the veil of mysteries.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Præcéptor, bonum est nos hic esse:

℟. Master, it is good for us to be here.

* Faciámus hic tria tabernácula; tibi unum, Móysi unum et Elíæ unum.

* Let us make here three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.

℣. Non enim sciébat quid díceret.

℣. For he wist not what to say.

℟. Faciámus hic tria tabernácula; tibi unum, Móysi unum et Elíæ unum.

His ergo sacramentórum revelatiónibus Petrus Apóstolus incitátus, mundána spernens et terréna fastídiens, in æternórum desidérium quodam mentis rapiebátur excéssu; et, gáudio totíus visiónis implétus, ibi cum Iesu optábat habitáre, ubi manifésta eius glória lætabátur. Unde et ait: Dómine, bonum est nos hic esse: si vis, faciámus hic tria tabernácula; tibi unum, Móysi unum et Elíæ unum. Sed huic suggestióni Dóminus non respóndit, signíficans, non quidem ímprobum, sed inordinátum esse quod cúperet; cum salvári mundus, nisi Christi morte, non posset, et exémplo Dómini in hoc vocarétur credéntium fides, ut licet non oportéret de beatitúdinis promissiónibus dubitári, intellegerémus tamen inter tentatiónes huius vitæ prius nobis tolerántiam postulándam esse, quam glóriam.

The unveiling of such mysteries roused the mind of the Apostle Peter to an outburst of longing for the things eternal, which despised and disdained the things worldly and earthly overflowing with gladness at the vision, he yearned to dwell with Jesus there, where the revelation of His glory had rejoiced him. And so he said Master, it is good for us to be here if Thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias. To this proposal the Lord answered nothing, this signifying, that what Peter wished was not wrong, but out of place, since the world could not be saved but by the death of Christ. And the Lord's example was to call the faith of believers to this, that albeit we are behoven to have no doubts concerning the promise of eternal blessedness, yet we are to understand that, amid the trials of this life, we are to seek for endurance before glory.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Si ministrátio mortis, lítteris deformáta in lapídibus, fuit in glória, ita ut non possent inténdere fílii Israël in fáciem Móysi propter glóriam vultus eius, quæ evacuátur:

℟. If the ministration of death, written and engraven on stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not steadfastly behold the face of Moses, for the glory of his countenance which is done away:

* Multo magis ministrátio spíritus, quæ manet, erit in glória.

* How shall not the ministration of the Spirit, which abideth, be rather glorious?

℣. Amplióris enim glóriæ Christus præ Móyse dignus est hábitus, quanto ampliórem honórem habet domo, qui fabricávit eam.

℣. For Christ was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who hath builded the house hath more honour than the house.

℟. Multo magis ministrátio spíritus, quæ manet, erit in glória.

℟. How shall not the ministration of the Spirit, which abideth, be rather glorious?

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

88:11 Thou hast humbled the proud one, as one that is slain: * with the arm of thy strength thou hast scattered thy enemies.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum

From the Holy Gospel according to Matthew

Matt 17:1-9

Matt 17:1-9

In illo témpore: Assúmpsit Iesus Petrum, et Iacóbum, et Ioánnem fratrem eius, et duxit illos in montem excélsum seórsum: et transfigurátus est ante eos. Et réliqua.

At that time: Jesus took Peter, and James, and John his brother, and brought them up into an high mountain apart, and was transfigured before them. And so on.

Homilía sancti Ioánnis Chrysóstomi

Homily by St. John Chrysostom (Patriarch of Constantinople)

Homilia 57 in Matth., in init.

57th on Matthew

Quóniam multa de perículis, multa de passióne sua, multa de morte et de cæde discipulórum locútus est Dóminus, et áspera complúra atque árdua eis iniúnxit; et illa quidem in præsénti vita, et iam imminébant; bona vero in spe et exspectatióne erant: ut puta, quia servárent ánimam suam, si pérderent eam; quia in glória Patris sui ventúrus sit, et prǽmia redditúrus: ut visu étiam certióres fáceret, et osténderet quidnam sit illa glória, cum qua ventúrus est, quantum cápere póterant in hac præsénti vita, illis osténdit eámque détegit, ne aut sua aut Dómini morte dóleant, et máxime Petrus.

Since the Lord had spoken much concerning dangers, much concerning His Own sufferings, much concerning death, and the killing of His disciples, and had laid upon them many hard and grievous things, and since all these were in this present life, and already hanging over them, whereas the good things were matter for hope and waiting as, for example, that whosoever should lose his life for His sake should find it, for that the Son of Man should come in the glory of His Father, and reward every man according to his works. Matth. xvi. 25, 27. Therefore, to assure them by their own eyes, and show them what the glory is wherein He will come, He manifested and unveiled it to them, as far as in this life they were able to grasp it, lest they and especially Peter should grieve over their own deaths, or the death of their Lord.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Vocávit nos Deus vocatióne sua sancta, secúndum grátiam suam, quæ manifestáta est nunc;

℟. God hath called us with an holy calling, according to His own grace, which is now made manifest;

* Per illuminatiónem Salvatóris nostri Iesu Christi.

* By the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ.

℣. Qui destrúxit mortem, illuminávit autem vitam in incorruptiónem.

℣. Who hath abolished death, and brought life and immortality to light.

℟. Per illuminatiónem Salvatóris nostri Iesu Christi.

℟. By the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ.

℣. 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.

℟. Amen.

℟. Amen.

Et vide quid agit, cum de regno et de gehénna disserúerit. Nam in eo quod dixit: Qui ínvenit ánimam suam, perdet eam; et quicúmque perdet eam grátia mei, invéniet ipsam; et in eo quod ait: Reddet unicuíque secúndum ópera sua; et regnum et gehénnam designávit. Cum ígitur de utrísque disserúerit, regnum quidem ut óculis cernátur, concédit, gehénnam autem mínime; quóniam rudióribus atque ineptióribus illud necessárium fuísset, sed, cum illi probi essent ac perspicáces, satis fuit eos a melióribus confirmári. Hoc étiam multo magis ipsum decébat. Non tamen omníno illud prætermísit, sed et aliquándo atrocitátem gehénnæ quasi ante óculos propónit, véluti cum Lázari imáginem descrípsit, et eius méminit qui denários centum repétiit.

Behold what He doth, when He treateth of heaven and hell. Where He saith Whosoever will save his life shall lose it, and whosoever will lose his life for My sake shall find it. And again He shall reward every man according to his works in these words He pointeth at heaven and hell. But although He speaketh concerning both, He giveth a glimpse of heaven only and not of hell. To see hell would have profited the brutish and stupid, but His disciples were upright and clear-sighted, and therefore for them it was enough to be strengthened by the better things. This was what suited Him the best. Yet He left not the other altogether undone. Sometimes He set the horrors of hell, as it were, before the eyes, as for instance in the parable of the rich man and Lazarus, and that of him who was fain to wring the hundred pence from his fellow-servant.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Deus, qui fecit de ténebris lumen splendéscere, illúxit in córdibus nostris

℟. God, Who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts,

* Ad illuminatiónem sciéntiæ claritátis Dei, in fácie Iesu Christi.

* To give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God, in the Face of Jesus Christ.

℣. Exórtum est in ténebris lumen rectis corde, miséricors et miserátor, et iustus.

℣. Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness he is gracious and full of compassion, and righteous.

℟. Ad illuminatiónem sciéntiæ claritátis Dei, in fácie Iesu Christi.

℟. To give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God, in the Face of Jesus Christ.

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

Tu vero Matthǽi philosophíam consídera, qui non celávit nómina eórum qui præpósiti fúerant. Quod et Ioánnes sǽpius facit, cum exímias Petri laudes veríssime ac diligentíssime descríbat. Nullum enim in hoc Apostolórum consórtio livor aut inánis glória locum habébat. Primos ígitur Apostolórum seórsum assúmpsit. Quam ob rem eos solos accépit? Quia excellentióres céteris vidélicet erant. Cur autem non íllico, sed post sex dies hoc fecit? Ne céteri scílicet discípuli seu hómines moveréntur; qua de re nec eos nominávit, quos acceptúrus erat.

But mark well Matthew's good will, in not concealing the names of those who were preferred. John also likewise often recordeth the special praises of Peter with great truthfulness and care. For in this companionship of the Apostles, there was no envy, nor did vainglory find place. It was therefore the leaders of the Apostles whom Christ took apart from the others. And wherefore did he take these only? Because there were evidently superior to the rest. And why did he not do this straightway, and not until after six days? Evidently to spare the natural feelings of the other disciples; and for the same reason Christ did not for six days announce who were to go up.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

At Naples, in Campania, [in the year 1547,] the holy Confessor Gaetan of Tiene, Founder of the Clerks Regular, who with wonderful confidence in God enjoined upon them the first way of living of the Apostles. He was famous for miracles, and Clement X. enrolled his name among those of the Saints.

Póstea, Epíscopus factus, indómitas Morinórum et Nerviórum gentes divíni prædicatióne verbi ad Christi fidem perdúxit, et demum Conféssor in pace quiévit.

At Rouen, [about the year 407,] holy Vitricius, Bishop [of that see.] He was a soldier who threw away his belt for Christ's sake under the same Emperor Julian. He was put to many torments by his Tribune, and condemned to death, but the executioner who had been sent to behead him was struck blind, and he got his bonds loosed, and escaped.

Prov 10:1-5

Prov 10:1-5

1 Fílius sápiens lætíficat patrem, fílius vero stultus mæstítia est matris suæ.

1 A wise son maketh the father glad: but a foolish son is the sorrow of his mother.

2 Nihil próderunt thesáuri impietátis, iustítia vero liberábit a morte.

2 Treasures of wickedness shall profit nothing: but justice shall deliver from death.

3 Non afflíget Dóminus fame ánimam iusti, et insídias impiórum subvértet.

3 The Lord will not afflict the soul of the just with famine, and he will disappoint the deceitful practices of the wicked.

4 The slothful hand hath wrought poverty: but the hand of the industrious getteth riches. He that trusteth to lies feedeth the winds: and the same runneth after birds that fly away.

5 Qui cóngregat in messe, fílius sápiens est; qui autem stertit æstáte, fílius confusiónis.

5 He that gathered in the harvest is a wise son: but he that snorteth in the summer, is the son of confusion.

Caietánus, nóbili Thienǽa gente Vicéntiæ ortus, statim a matre Deíparæ Vírgini oblátus est. Patávii iuris utriúsque láuream adéptus, Romam proféctus est, ubi inter prælátos, a Iúlio secúndo collocátus et sacerdótio initiátus est. Nosocomíis próprio ære fundátis, étiam morbo pestilénti laborántibus suis ipse mánibus inserviébat. Proximórum salúti assídue incumbébat, dictus proptérea Venátor animárum. Collápsam ecclesiasticórum disciplínam ad formam apostólicæ vitæ instauráre desíderans, órdinem Clericórum regulárium instítuit, qui, abdicáta rerum ómnium terrenárum cura, nec réditus possidérent nec vitæ subsídia a fidélibus péterent, sed solis eleemósynis sponte oblátis víverent. Itaque, approbánte Cleménte séptimo, ad aram máximam basílicæ Vaticánæ una cum Ioánne Petro Caráfa, epíscopo Theatíno, qui póstea Paulus quartus Póntifex máximus fuit, et áliis duóbus exímiæ pietátis viris, vota solémnia emísit. Divíni cultus stúdium, nitórem domus Dei, sacrórum rítuum observántiam et sanctíssimæ Eucharístiæ frequentiórem usum máxime promóvit. Plenus méritis, Neápoli migrávit in cælum, ibíque corpus eius in ecclésia sancti Pauli magna religióne cólitur.

Cajetan was born at Vicenza of the noble family of Tiene, and was at once dedicated by his mother to the Virgin Mother of God. He won his degree in civil and canon law at Padua and went to Rome, where he was appointed a prelate by Julius II and later ordained to the priesthood. He founded hospitals with his own money, and with his own hands served the sick, even those stricken with contagious diseases. He worked so zealously for the salvation of others that he came to be called Hunter of souls. The discipline of the clergy had fallen to a low state; with the aim of restoring it after the pattern of the apostolic life, Cajetan founded the Order of Clerks Regular. They were to give up all involvement in worldly affairs; they were not to possess any revenues or to beg for their subsistence from the faithful, but to live only on alms spontaneously offered. And so, with the approval of Clement VII, Cajetan took solemn vows at the High Altar of the Vatican Basilica, together with John Peter Carafa, Bishop of Chieti and afterwards Paul IV, and two other men of outstandingly holy lives. He was a great advancer of care in the worship of God, of splendour in the house of God, of exactness in the holy ceremonies, and of the frequent reception of the most holy Eucharist. Full of merits, he went to his heavenly reward at Naples, and there his body is highly venerated in the Church of St. Paul.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

72:7 Their iniquity hath come forth, as it were from fatness: * they have passed into the affection of the heart.

72:8 Cogitavérunt, et locúti sunt nequítiam: * iniquitátem in excélso locúti sunt.

72:8 They have thought and spoken wickedness: * they have spoken iniquity on high.

72:11 Et dixérunt: Quómodo scit Deus, * et si est sciéntia in excélso?

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.

72:12 Behold these are sinners; and yet abounding in the world * they have obtained riches.

72:13 Et dixi: Ergo sine causa iustificávi cor meum, * et lavi inter innocéntes manus meas:

72:13 And I said: Then have I in vain justified my heart, * and washed my hands among the innocent.

72:14 Et fui flagellátus tota die, * et castigátio mea in matutínis.

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:

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 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.

Ioánnes María Vianney, in pago Dardilly Diœcésis Lugdunénsis, piis rurículis ortus, plura dedit sanctitátis indícia. Cum octénnis oves custodíret, puérulos ad imáginem Deíparæ genufléxos, Rosárium verbo et exémplo edocére solébat, et agris coléndis addíctus, de cæléstibus meditabátur. Páuperum amantíssimus, eos omnímodo adiuváre in delíciis hábuit. Ut erat tardióris ingénii, divína ope imploráta, ac theologíæ cursu operóse confécto, dignus hábitus est qui sacris initiarétur. Párochus renuntiátus, omníno squaléntis ac desértæ parœ́ciæ fáciem florentíssime renovávit. In consciéntiis iudicándis ac moderándis cotídie assíduus, atrocíssimas Sátanæ vexatiónes patiénter tolerávit. Pia Missiónum exercítia in ámplius centum parœ́ciis instítuit. Cum autem humíllime de se sentíret, sancto fidélium desidério, in suam parœ́ciam illum viséndi grátia étiam ex díssitis provínciis accurréntium, se subdúcere conabátur. Labóribus pótius quam sénio conféctus prænuntiáto suæ mortis die, in Dómino quiévit, die quarta augústi anno millésimo octingentésimo quinquagésimo nono, annos natus tres ac septuagínta. Quem tot clarum miráculis Pius décimus inter Beátos, Pius undécimus inter Sanctos cǽlites anno sacro adscrípsit, anno vero quinquagésimo sacerdótii sui ómnium parochórum cæléstem Patrónum constítuit.

John Mary Vianney was born of devout farming-people in the village of Dardilly in the diocese of Lyons, and gave many indications of his future sanctity. As an eight-year-old boy, keeping sheep, he would lead the other children to kneel before the image of the Mother of God, teaching them the Rosary by word and example; and he loved to work in the fields and meditate on divine things. He was a great lover of the poor and took delight in helping them in every way. He was slow to learn; but, after imploring God's help and working hard to complete his course in theology, he was judged fit to be ordained. Receiving an appointment as pastor, he made spiritual flowers bloom again in a parish that had been nothing but a dried-up wasteland. Busy every day hearing confessions and giving spiritual counsel, he bore patiently the most horrible attacks of Satan. He established the practice of making missions in more than an hundred parishes. The faithful came flocking to his parish, even from distant places, in a holy desire to see him; but he did not share their high opinion of him at all, and more than once he tried to slip away. Worn out by his labours rather than by old age, he rested in the Lord at the age of seventy-three on the day he had foretold, the 4th of August, 1859. Famous for many miracles, he was enrolled among the Blessed by Pius X and among the Saints by Pius XI who, on the fiftieth anniversary of his own priesthood, appointed him the heavenly patron of all parish priests.

Quinto Idus Augústi Luna vicésima Anno Dómini 2031

The morrow is the eve of the holy martyr Lawrence.

August 9th 2031, the 20th day of the Moon, we keep in England the feast of the holy Oswald, King of the Northumbrians, whose acts are written by the Venerable Priest Bede, and of whom mention is made upon the 5th day of this same month.

Vigília sancti Lauréntii Mártyris.

Upon the same 9th day of August, were born into the better life:

Romæ sancti Románi, mílitis et Mártyris; qui, confessióne beáti Lauréntii compúnctus, pétiit ab eo baptizári, et, mox exhíbitus ac fústibus cæsus, ad últimum decollátus est.

In Túscia natális sanctórum Mártyrum Secundiáni, Marcelliáni et Veriáni; qui, témpore Décii, a Promóto Consulári primum cæsi sunt, deínde in equúleo suspénsi, et abrási úngulis, atque igne latéribus appósito assáti, ac tandem triumphálem martýrii palmam, cápite cæsi, meruérunt.

At Rome, [in the year 258,] the holy soldier Romanus, who was so wrought upon by the confession of the blessed Lawrence that he sought baptism at his hands, and was presently arraigned, beaten with clubs, and then beheaded.

Verónæ sanctórum Mártyrum Firmi et Rústici, qui, témpore Maximiáni Imperatóris, sub Anolíno Iúdice, cum sacrificáre idólis renúerent et constánter in Christi fide persísterent, ambo iussi sunt, post ália superáta supplícia, fústibus cædi et cápite amputári.

In Tuscany, [in the year 261,] the holy martyrs Secundian, Marcellian, and Verian. In the time of the Emperor Decius the Consular Promotus caused them first to be hided, then hung upon the rack, scarified with hooks, and burnt in the sides, thereafter they were beheaded, and so gained the palm of victory through martyrdom.

In Africa commemorátio plurimórum sanctórum Mártyrum, qui, in persecutióne Valeriáni, hortánte eos ad constántiam sancto Numídico, in ignem coniécti, martýrii palmam adépti sunt. Ipse autem Numídicus, licet cum áliis in rogum iniéctus et lapídibus óbrutus fuísset, a fília tamen, effóssus et semivívus repértus, curátus est; ac póstea, ob eius virtútem, in Ecclésiæ Carthaginénsis Presbýterum a beáto Cypriáno méruit cooptári.

At Verona, the holy martyrs Firmus and Rusticus, in the time of the Emperor Maximian.

Constantinópoli sanctórum Mártyrum Iuliáni, Marciáni et aliórum octo; qui, ob Salvatóris imáginem, quam in porta ǽnea constitúerant, omnes, ímpii Leónis Imperatóris iussu, post multa torménta, gládio necáti sunt.

In Africa, [in the third century,] many holy martyrs, who at the exhortation of holy Numidicus gained the palm of martyrdom in the persecution under the Emperor Valerian by being cast into the fire. Numidicus himself was thrown upon the burning fire along with the others, and then covered with stones but when his daughter dug him out there was still some life left in him, he was healed, and afterwards by his worthy life obtained from blessed Cyprian admission as a Priest to the Church at Carthage.

Cataláuni, in Gállia, sancti Domitiáni, Epíscopi et Confessóris.

At Constantinople, [in the year 730,] the holy martyrs Julian, Marcian, and eight others, who were long tortured, and then slain with the sword by command of the wicked Emperor Leo, on account of the image of the Saviour which they had set up in the Brazen Gate.

℣. Et álibi aliórum plurimórum sanctórum Mártyrum et Confessórum, atque sanctárum Vírginum.

Prov 16:5-9

5 Inítium viæ bonæ fácere iustítiam, accépta est autem apud Deum magis quam immoláre hóstias.

5 The beginning of a good way is to do justice; and this is more acceptable with God, than to offer sacrifices.

6 Misericórdia et veritáte redímitur iníquitas, et in timóre Dómini declinátur a malo.

6 By mercy and truth iniquity is redeemed: and by the fear of the Lord men depart from evil.

De Expositióne sancti Gregórii Papæ in libros Regum

From the Commentary of Pope St. Gregory on the books of Kings

In 1 Reg. 1

On I Kings I

Fuit vir unus de Ramáthaim Sophim, de monte Ephraim. Potest, huius montis nómine, beatíssima semper Virgo María, Dei Génetrix, designári. Mons quippe fuit, quæ omnem eléctæ creatúræ altitúdinem, electiónis suæ dignitáte, transcéndit. An non mons sublímis María, quæ, ut ad conceptiónem ætérni Verbi pertíngeret, meritórum vérticem, supra omnes Angelórum choros, usque ad sólium Deitátis eréxit? Huius enim montis præcellentíssimam dignitátem Isaías vatícinans, ait: Erit in novíssimis diébus præparátus mons domus Dómini in vértice móntium. Mons quippe in vértice móntium fuit, quia altitúdo Maríæ supra omnes Sanctos refúlsit.

“There was a man of Ramathaim-Sophim, of mount Ephraim.” The name of this mountain can be taken to designate the Most Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God. She is a mountain in as much as, among chosen creatures, the dignity of her calling was above that of any others. Surely Mary was the highest of mountains, was she not, when she heaped up merits beyond all the choirs of Angels, to the very throne of God, that she might be worthy to conceive the eternal Word? It was this mountain whose supreme dignity Isaias was prophesying when he said: “In days to come, the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established as the highest mountain.” Mary was indeed the highest mountain, since her summit gleamed above those of all the Saints.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

87:2 Lord, the God of my salvation: * I have cried in the day, and in the night before thee.

87:3 Intret in conspéctu tuo orátio mea: * inclína aurem tuam ad precem meam:

87:3 Let my prayer come in before thee: * incline thy ear to my petition.

87:4 Quia repléta est malis ánima mea: * et vita mea inférno appropinquávit.

87:4 For my soul is filled with evils: * and my life hath drawn nigh to hell.

87:5 Æstimátus sum cum descendéntibus in lacum: * factus sum sicut homo sine adiutório, inter mórtuos liber.

87:5 I am counted among them that go down to the pit: * I am become as a man without help, free among the dead.

87:6 Sicut vulneráti dormiéntes in sepúlcris, quorum non es memor ámplius: * et ipsi de manu tua repúlsi sunt.

87:6 Like the slain sleeping in the sepulchres, whom thou rememberest no more: * and they are cast off from thy hand.

87:7 Posuérunt me in lacu inferióri: * in tenebrósis, et in umbra mortis.

87:7 They have laid me in the lower pit: * in the dark places, and in the shadow of death.

87:8 Super me confirmátus est furor tuus: * et omnes fluctus tuos induxísti super me.

87:8 Thy wrath is strong over me: * and all thy waves thou hast brought in upon me.

87:9 Longe fecísti notos meos a me: * posuérunt me abominatiónem sibi.

87:9 Thou hast put away my acquaintance far from me: * they have set me an abomination to themselves.

87:9 Tráditus sum, et non egrediébar: * óculi mei languérunt præ inópia.

87:9 I was delivered up, and came not forth: * my eyes languished through poverty.

87:10 Clamávi ad te, Dómine, tota die: * expándi ad te manus meas.

87:10 All the day I cried to thee, O Lord: * I stretched out my hands to thee.

87:11 Numquid mórtuis fácies mirabília: * aut médici suscitábunt, et confitebúntur tibi?

87:11 Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? * or shall physicians raise to life, and give praise to thee?

87:12 Numquid narrábit áliquis in sepúlcro misericórdiam tuam, * et veritátem tuam in perditióne?

87:12 Shall any one in the sepulchre declare thy mercy: * and thy truth in destruction?

87:13 Numquid cognoscéntur in ténebris mirabília tua, * et iustítia tua in terra obliviónis?

87:13 Shall thy wonders be known in the dark; * and thy justice in the land of forgetfulness?

87:14 Et ego ad te, Dómine, clamávi: * et mane orátio mea prævéniet te.

87:14 But I, O Lord, have cried to thee: * and in the morning my prayer shall prevent thee.

87:15 Ut quid, Dómine, repéllis oratiónem meam: * avértis fáciem tuam a me?

87:15 Lord, why castest thou off my prayer: * why turnest thou away thy face from me?

87:16 Pauper sum ego, et in labóribus a iuventúte mea: * exaltátus autem, humiliátus sum et conturbátus.

87:16 I am poor, and in labours from my youth: * and being exalted have been humbled and troubled.

87:17 In me transiérunt iræ tuæ: * et terróres tui conturbavérunt me.

87:17 Thy wrath hath come upon me: * and thy terrors have troubled me.

87:18 Circumdedérunt me sicut aqua tota die: * circumdedérunt me simul.

87:18 They have come round about me like water all the day: * they have compassed me about together.

Eccl 1:8-11

Eccl 1:8-11

8 Cunctæ res diffíciles: non potest eas homo explicáre sermóne. Non saturátur óculus visu, nec auris audítu implétur.

8 All things are hard: man cannot explain them by word. The eye is not filled with seeing, neither is the ear filled with hearing.

9 Quid est quod fuit? Ipsum quod futúrum est. Quid est quod factum est? Ipsum quod faciéndum est.

9 What is it that hath been? the same thing that shall be. What is it that hath been done? the same that shall be done.

10 Nihil sub sole novum, nec valet quisquam dícere: Ecce hoc recens est; iam enim præcéssit in sǽculis quæ fuérunt ante nos.

10 Nothing under the sun is new, neither is any man able to say: Behold this is new: for it hath already gone before in the ages that were before us.

11 Non est priórum memória; sed nec eórum quidem quæ póstea futúra sunt, erit recordátio apud eos qui futúri sunt in novíssimo.

11 There is no remembrance of former things: nor indeed of those things which hereafter are to come, shall there be any remembrance with them that shall be in the latter end.

12 I Ecclesiastes was king over Israel in Jerusalem,

13 Et propósui in ánimo meo quǽrere et investigáre sapiénter de ómnibus quæ fiunt sub sole. Hanc occupatiónem péssimam dedit Deus fíliis hóminum, ut occuparéntur in ea.

13 And I proposed in my mind to seek and search out wisely concerning all things that are done under the sun. This painful occupation hath God given to the children of men, to be exercised therein.

14 Vidi cuncta quæ fiunt sub sole, et ecce univérsa vánitas et afflíctio spíritus.

14 I have seen all things that are done under the sun, and behold all is vanity, and vexation of spirit.

15 Pervérsi diffícile corrigúntur, et stultórum infinítus est númerus.

15 The perverse are hard to be corrected, and the number of fools is infinite.

16 Locútus sum in corde meo dicens: Ecce magnus efféctus sum et præcéssi omnes sapiéntia qui fuérunt ante me in Ierúsalem; et mens mea contempláta est multa sapiénter, et dídici.

16 I have spoken in my heart, saying: Behold I am become great, and have gone beyond all in wisdom, that were before me in Jerusalem: and my mind hath contemplated many things wisely, and I have learned.

17 Dedíque cor meum ut scirem prudéntiam atque doctrínam, errorésque et stultítiam.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam

From the Holy Gospel according to Luke

Luc 18:9-14

Luke 18:9-14

In illo témpore: Dixit Iesus ad quosdam, qui in se confidébant tamquam iusti et aspernabántur céteros, parábolam istam: Duo hómines ascendérunt in templum ut orárent: unus pharisǽus, et alter publicánus. Et réliqua.

At that time: Jesus spoke this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: Two men went up into the Temple to pray, the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican. And so on.

Homilía sancti Augustíni Epíscopi

Homily by St. Augustine, Bishop of Hippo

Sermo 36 de Verbis Domini, circa medium

Serm 36 of the Word of the Lord

Díceret saltem pharisǽus: Non sum sicut multi hómines. Quid est, céteri hómines, nisi omnes præter ipsum? Ego, inquit, iustus sum, céteri peccatóres. Non sum sicut céteri hómines, iniústi, raptóres, adúlteri. Et ecce tibi ex vicíno publicáno maióris tumóris occásio: Sicut, inquit, publicánus iste. Ego, inquit, solus sum: iste de céteris est. Non sum, inquit, talis, qualis iste, per iustítias meas, quibus iníquus non sum.

The Pharisee might at least have said: “I am not as many men are.” But what meaneth “other men”? All other men except himself. “I,” said he, “am righteous; others are sinners.” “I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers,” and then he took occasion, from the neighborhood of the publican, to plume himself “or even,” quoth he, “as this publican.” “I am alone,” he thought, “that publican” is one of the others. Mine own righteousness maketh the gulf between me and the wicked, such as he is.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

Tértio Idus Augústi Luna vicésima secúnda Anno Dómini 2031

August 11th 2031, the 22nd day of the Moon, were born into the better life:

Romæ, inter duas Lauros, natális sancti Tiburtii Mártyris, qui, sub Iúdice Fabiáno, in persecutióne Diocletiáni, cum Christum, nudis plantis super carbónes ardéntes ingréssus, maióri confiterétur constántia, duci in tértium ab Urbe milliárium atque ibídem gládio animadvérti iubétur.

At Rome, [in the year 286,] between the two Laurel trees, the holy martyr Tiburtius. In the persecution under the Emperor Diocletian the judge Fabian caused him to walk with bare feet upon burning coals, and as he confessed Christ all the more firmly, commanded him to be led to the third mile-stone outside the city, and there beheaded.

Item Romæ sanctæ Susánnæ Vírginis, quæ, cum ex nóbili prosápia esset orta et beáti Caii Pontíficis neptis, martýrii palmam, témpore Diocletiáni, cápitis obtruncatióne proméruit.

Likewise at Rome, [in the year 295,] the holy Virgin Susanna, a damsel of noble birth, a niece to blessed Pope Caius. She was beheaded in the time of the Emperor Diocletian, and so gained the palm of martyrdom.

Assísii, in Umbria, natális sanctæ Claræ Vírginis, primæ plantæ Páuperum Dominárum Ordinis Minórum; quam, vita et miráculis célebrem, Alexánder Papa Quartus in númerum sanctárum Vírginum rétulit. Ipsíus tamen festum sequénti die celebrátur.

1 Dixi ego in corde meo: Vadam et áffluam delíciis et fruar bonis; et vidi quod hoc quoque esset vánitas.

3 I thought in my heart, to withdraw my flesh from wine, that I might turn my mind to wisdom, and might avoid folly, till I might see what was profitable for the children of men: and what they ought to do under the sun, all the days of their life.

8 I heaped together for myself silver and gold, and the wealth of kings, and provinces: I made me singing men, and singing women, and the delights of the sons of men, cups and vessels to serve to pour out wine:

10 Et ómnia, quæ desideravérunt óculi mei, non negávi eis, nec prohíbui cor meum, quin omni voluptáte fruerétur et oblectáret se in his quæ præparáveram; et hanc ratus sum partem meam si úterer labóre meo.

10 And whatsoever my eyes desired, I refused them not: and I withheld not my heart from enjoying every pleasure, and delighting itself in the things which I had prepared: and esteemed this my portion, to make use of my own labour.

11 Cumque me convertíssem ad univérsa ópera, quæ fécerant manus meæ, et ad labóres in quibus frustra sudáveram, vidi in ómnibus vanitátem et afflictiónem ánimi, et nihil permanére sub sole.

11 And when I turned myself to all the works which my hands had wrought, and to the labours wherein I had laboured in vain, I saw in all things vanity, and vexation of mind, and that nothing was lasting under the sun.

Sanctæ Claræ Vírginis, primæ plantæ Páuperum Dominárum Ordinis Minórum; quæ ad ætérnas Agni núptias evocáta est prídie huius diéi.

At Assisi, in Umbria, [in the year 1253], the holy Virgin Clare, the first of the women of the Order of Friars Minors [who are called Poor Clares.] Her life and miracles were famous, and Pope Alexander IV enrolled her name among those of the holy virgins.

Eódem die sanctórum Mártyrum Porcárii, Abbátis monastérii Lirinénsis, et Sociórum eius quingentórum Monachórum; qui pro fide cathólica, a bárbaris cæsi, martýrio coronáti sunt.

At Catania, in Sicily, in the persecution under the Emperors Diocletian and Maximian, the holy Deacon Euplius. He was long put to the torture for confessing the Lord, and at length beheaded, and so received the crown of martyrdom.

Cátanæ, in Sicília, natális sancti Eúpli Diáconi, sub Diocletiáno et Maximiáno Augústis; qui, cum diutíssime pro confessióne Dómini tortus esset, tandem martýrii palmam, gládio cædénte, percépit.

At Augsburg, [in the fourth century,] the holy Hilaria, the mother of the blessed martyr Afra. She was watching at her grave when she was taken by persecutors, and for Christ's faith's sake committed to the fire, along with her handmaidens Digna, Euprepia, and Eunomia.

Augústæ Vindelicórum sanctæ Hiláriæ, quæ, cum esset beátæ Afræ Mártyris mater et ad sepúlcrum illíus excubáret, ibídem, pro fide Christi, a persecutóribus igni trádita est cum Digna, Euprépia et Eunómia, ancíllis suis. Passi sunt étiam eódem die, in præfáta urbe, Quiríacus, Lárgio, Crescentiánus, Nímmia et Iuliána, cum áliis vigínti.

At Civita Castellana, in Tuscany, [under Galerius Maximianus,] the holy martyr Gracilian and the Virgin Felicissima. Because they confessed the faith, their mouths were first bruised with stones, and then they were smitten with the sword, and so received that palm of martyrdom which they had desired.

Medioláni deposítio sancti Eusébii, Epíscopi et Confessóris.

On the same day, [about the year 730,] the holy martyrs Porcarius, Abbot of the monastery of Lerins, and five hundred monks, crowned with martyrdom, slain by the barbarians for the Catholic faith's sake.

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

Clara nóbilis virgo, Assísii nata in Umbria, sanctum Francíscum concívem suum imitáta, cuncta sua bona in eleemósynas et páuperum subsídia distríbuit. De sǽculi strépitu fúgiens, in campéstrem declinávit ecclésiam, ibíque ab eódem beáto Francísco recépta tonsúra consanguíneis ipsam redúcere conántibus fórtiter réstitit. Deínde ad ecclésiam sancti Damiáni per eúndem addúcta, sacrárum sorórum collégium instítuit, quarum régimen, nímia sancti Francísci devícta importunitáte recépit. Suum monastérium sollícite ac prudénter annis quadragínta duóbus mirabíliter gubernávit. Saracénos monastérium invádere conántes, cum sanctíssimum Sacraméntum deférri iussísset, humíllime orans, pénitus fugávit. Evolávit in cælum prídie idus augústi, et ab Alexándro Papa quarto inter sanctas Vírgines est reláta.

Clare was a virgin of noble birth, born at Assisi in Umbria. Imitating St. Francis, her fellow-citizen, she gave all her goods in alms to aid the poor. Fleeing from the noise of the world, she went to a country chapel and there received the tonsure from St. Francis, strongly resisting her kindred who were trying to bring her back. Then he led her to the church of St. Damian, where she founded an Order of nuns, the government of which she undertook, yielding to the repeated requests of St. Francis. She governed her monastery with care and prudence for forty-two years. When the Saracens tried to invade it, she commanded that the Blessed Sacrament be brought and prayed most humbly, and they at once took to flight. She went to heaven on the 12th day of August, and was enrolled among the holy Virgins by Pope Alexander IV.

Idibus Augústi Luna vicésima quarta Anno Dómini 2031

August 13th 2031, the 24th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:

Romæ beáti Hippólyti Mártyris, qui pro confessiónis glória, sub Valeriáno Imperatóre, post ália torménta, ligátis pédibus ad colla indomitórum equórum, per carduétum et tríbulos crudéliter tractus est, ac, toto córpore laceráto, emísit spíritum. Passi sunt étiam eódem die beáta Concórdia, eius nutrix, quæ ante ipsum, plumbátis cæsa, migrávit ad Dóminum; et álii decem et novem de domo sua, qui extra portam Tiburtínam decolláti sunt, et, una cum ipso, in agro Veráno sepúlti.

At Rome, [in the year 258,] the blessed martyr Hippolytus. Such was the glory of his confession, under the Emperor Valerian, that after other torments his feet were tied to the necks of unbroken horses, and he was thus cruelly dragged through thistles and thorns until his whole body was torn and he gave up the ghost.

Apud Forum Syllæ natális sancti Cassiáni Mártyris, qui cum adoráre idóla noluísset, ídeo, vocátis a persecutóre púeris, quibus exósus docéndo factus fúerat, data est eis facúltas eum periméndi; quorum quanto infírmior erat manus, tanto graviórem martýrii pœnam, diláta morte, faciébat.

Upon the same day there suffered his nurse, the blessed Concordia, who was beaten to death with scourges loaded with lead, and passed away.

Tudérti, in Umbria, sancti Cassiáni, Epíscopi et Mártyris, sub Diocletiáno Imperatóre.

At Imola, [in the fourth century,] the holy martyr Cassian. When he refused to worship idols the persecutors called for the boys to whom he had become hateful while teaching them, and gave them permission to kill him, and the weaker their hands were the greater were his sufferings through the delay of death.

Burgis, in Hispánia, sanctárum Centóllæ et Hélenæ Mártyrum.

At Todi, [in Umbria,] under the Emperor Diocletian, the holy martyr Cassian, Bishop [of that see.]

Constantinópoli sancti Máximi Abbátis, doctrína et cathólicæ veritátis zelo insígnis; qui, cum advérsus Monothelítas strénue decertáret, ab hærético Imperatóre Constánte, præcísis mánibus ac lingua, in Chersonésum relegátus est, ibíque, glória confessiónis clarus, spíritum Deo réddidit. Tunc étiam duo Anastásii, qui eius erant discípuli, aliíque plures divérsa torménta et dura exsília sunt expérti.

At Burgos, in Spain, the holy martyrs Centolla and Helen.

Fritesláriæ, in Germánia, sancti Wigbérti, Presbýteri et Confessóris.

At Constantinople, [in the year 662,] the holy monk Maximus, famous for his teaching and zeal for Catholic truth. He vigorously contended against the Monothelites, and the heretical Emperor Constans cut away his hands and tongue, and banished him to the Crimea, where he gave up the ghost. At the same time the two Anastasii, his disciples, and many others, suffered diverse torments and were sent into hard banishments.

Romæ natális sancti Ioánnis Berchmans, scholástici e Societáte Iesu et Confessóris, vitæ innocéntia et religiósæ disciplínæ custódia præclári; cui Leo Décimus tértius, Póntifex Máximus, cǽlitum Sanctórum honóres decrévit.

In Germany, [in the year 747,] the holy Confessor Wigbert the Priest.

Pictávis, in Gállia, sanctæ Radegúndis Regínæ, cuius vita miráculis et virtútibus cláruit.

At Poitiers, [in the year 587,] the holy Queen Radegundis, whose life was famous for miracles and graces.

℣. Et álibi aliórum plurimórum sanctórum Mártyrum et Confessórum, atque sanctárum Vírginum.

At Rome, [in the year 1621,] holy John Berchmans, a scholastic of the Society of Jesus, illustrious for the innocency of his life and his observance of the discipline of his Institute, to whom the supreme Pontiff Leo XIII decreed the honours paid to the Saints in heaven.

℟. Deo grátias.

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

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.

De libro Ecclesiástæ

Lesson from the book of Ecclesiastes

Eccl 4:1-4

Eccl 4:1-4

1 Verti me ad ália, et vidi calúmnias, quæ sub sole gerúntur, et lácrimas innocéntium, et néminem consolatórem, nec posse resístere eórum violéntiæ cunctórum auxílio destitútos.

1 I turned myself to other things, and I saw the oppressions that are done under the sun, and the tears of the innocent, and they had no comforter; and they were not able to resist their violence, being destitute of help from any.

2 Et laudávi magis mórtuos quam vivéntes;

2 And I praised the dead rather than the living:

3 Et feliciórem utróque iudicávi qui necdum natus est nec vidit mala quæ sub sole fiunt.

3 And I judged him happier than them both, that is not yet born, nor hath seen the evils that are done under the sun.

4 Rursum contemplátus sum omnes labóres hóminum, et indústrias animadvérti patére invídiæ próximi; et in hoc ergo vánitas et cura supérflua est.

4 Again I considered all the labours of men, and I remarked that their industries are exposed to the envy of their neighhour: so in this also there is vanity, and fruitless care.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Dómine, Pater et Deus vitæ meæ, ne derelínquas me in cogitátu malígno: extolléntiam oculórum meórum ne déderis mihi, et desidérium malígnum avérte a me, Dómine; aufer a me concupiscéntiam,

℟. O Lord, Father and God of my life, leave me not to evil counsels; give me not a proud look, but turn away from me an haughty mind, O Lord turn away from me concupiscence,

* Et ánimo irreverénti et infruníto ne tradas me, Dómine.

* And give me not over unto an impudent and froward mind, O Lord!

℣. Ne derelínquas me, Dómine, ne accréscant ignorántiæ meæ, nec multiplicéntur delícta mea.

℣. Leave me not, O Lord, lest mine ignorance increase, and my sins abound.

℟. Et ánimo irreverénti et infruníto ne tradas me, Dómine.

℟. And give me not over unto an impudent and froward mind, O Lord.

Eccl 4:5-8

Eccl 4:5-8

5 Stultus cómplicat manus suas et cómedit carnes suas, dicens:

5 The fool foldeth his hands together, and eateth his own flesh, saying:

6 Mélior est pugíllus cum réquie, quam plena útraque manus cum labóre et afflictióne ánimi.

6 Better is a handful with rest, than both hands full with labour, and vexation of mind.

7 Consíderans, réperi et áliam vanitátem sub sole.

7 Considering I found also another vanity under the sun:

8 Unus est, et secúndum non habet, non fílium, non fratrem, et tamen laboráre non cessat, nec satiántur óculi eius divítiis, nec recógitat, dicens: Cui labóro, et fraudo ánimam meam bonis? In hoc quoque vánitas est et afflíctio péssima.

8 There is but one, and he hath not a second, no child, no brother, and yet he ceaseth not to labour, neither are his eyes satisfied with riches, neither doth he reflect, saying: For whom do I labour, and defraud my soul of good things? in this also is vanity, and a grievous vexation.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Magna enim sunt iudícia tua, Dómine, et inenarrabília verba tua:

℟. Great are thy judgments, O Lord, and thy words cannot be expressed.

* Magnificásti pópulum tuum et honorásti.

* Thou didst make thy people mighty and honourable.

℣. Transtulísti illos per Mare Rubrum et transvexísti eos per aquam nímiam.

℣. Thou broughtest them through the Red Sea, and leddest them through much water.

℟. Magnificásti pópulum tuum et honorásti.

Eccl 4:9-13

Eccl 4:9-13

9 Mélius est ergo duos esse simul quam unum; habent enim emoluméntum societátis suæ.

9 It is better therefore that two should be together, than one: for they have the advantage of their society:

10 Si unus cecíderit, ab áltero fulciétur. Væ soli, quia, cum cecíderit, non habet sublevántem se.

10 If one fall he shall be supported by the other: woe to him that is alone, for when he falleth, he hath none to lift him up.

11 Et si dormíerint duo, fovebúntur mútuo: unus quómodo calefíet?

11 And if two lie together, they shall warm one another: how shall one alone be warmed?

12 Et, si quíspiam prævalúerit contra unum, duo resístunt ei; funículus triplex diffícile rúmpitur.

12 And if a man prevail against one, two shall withstand him: a threefold cord is not easily broken.

13 Mélior est puer pauper et sápiens, rege sene et stulto, qui nescit prævidére in pósterum.

13 Better is a child that is poor and wise, than a king that is old and foolish, who knoweth not to foresee for hereafter.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Quæ sunt in corde hóminum, óculi tui vident, Dómine, et in libro tuo ómnia scribéntur:

℟. Lord, thine eyes behold all that is in the heart of man, and in thy book are they all written.

* Homo videt in fácie, Deus autem in corde.

* Man looketh on the outward appearance, but God looketh on the heart.

℣. Omnia enim corda scrutátur, et univérsas méntium cogitatiónes intéllegit.

℣. For He searcheth all hearts, and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam

The Lesson is taken from the Holy Gospel according to Luke

Luc 11:27-28

Luke 11:27-28

In illo témpore: Loquénte Iesu ad turbas, extóllens vocem quædam múlier de turba dixit illi: Beátus venter qui te portávit. Et réliqua.

At that time: It came to pass as Jesus spoke, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice, and said unto him: Blessed is the womb that bore thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked. And so on, and that which followeth.

Homilía sancti Ioánnis Chrysóstomi

Homily by St. John Chrysostom

In Ioann. c. 2 Homilia 20, circa finem

Homily 20 on John ch. 2, toward the end

Cum audíeris mulíerem illam dicéntem: Beátus venter qui te portávit, et úbera quæ tu suxísti; deínde Dóminum respondéntem: Quinímmo beáti qui áudiunt verbum Dei et custódiunt illud; ea senténtia dictum exístima, non quod Matrem neglégeret, sed nihil ei utilitátis matris nomen allatúrum osténderet, nisi bonitáte et fide præstáret. Quod si Maríæ nihil, sine virtúte, matérna cáritas erat profutúra; longe minus nobis patris, fratris, matris, fílii bónitas, nisi áliquid nostrum afferámus.

When you give ear to the saying of that woman: Blessed is the womb that bare thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked: and to the Lord's reply: Yea, rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God and keep it: think not that he made this observation as slighting his Mother, but as wishing to shew that it would profit her nothing to be called his Mother, unless she excelled in goodness and faith. Now, if a mother's love would avail Mary nothing without virtue, much less will it avail us to be a good father, brother, mother, or son, unless we are good in ourselves.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. In princípio Deus ántequam terram fáceret, priúsquam abýssos constitúeret, priúsquam prodúceret fontes aquárum,

℟. God possessed me in the beginning, before He made the earth, before He created the depths, before He caused the fountains of water to spring.

* Antequam montes collocaréntur, ante omnes colles generávit me Dóminus.

* Before the mountains were settled, before there were any hills, did the Lord beget me.

℣. Quando præparábat cælos, áderam, cum eo cuncta compónens.

℣. When He prepared the heavens, I was there with Him, ordering all things.

℟. Antequam montes collocaréntur, ante omnes colles generávit me Dóminus.

℟. Before the mountains were settled, before there were any hills, did the Lord beget me.

In nullo namque álio, nisi in solis sui ipsíus virtútibus, post divínam grátiam, de salúte cuípiam sperándum est. Nam, si id profutúrum erat per se Maríæ, profuísset étiam Iudǽis, quorum consanguíneus Christus secúndum carnem; profuísset civitáti, in qua natus est; profuísset frátribus. Atqui, dum fratres rerum suárum curam habuérunt, nihil eis propinquitátis nomen prófuit, sed cum réliquo mundo damnáti erant.

For indeed, salvation for anyone, apart from the divine grace, is to be hoped for in nothing else but his own virtues. For if her kinship in itself could have profited Mary, it would also have profited the Jews, for Christ was their kinsman according to the flesh; it would have profited the city in which he was born; it would have profited his brethren. Yet as long as his brethren cared only for their own interests, their relationship to Christ profited them nothing, but they were condemned with the rest of the world.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. I alone compassed the circuit of heaven, and walked on the waves of the sea. In every nation and in every people, I held the first place.

* Superbórum et sublímium colla própria virtúte calcávi.

* In the greatness of my strength have I trodden under my feet the necks of such as be haughty and proud.

℣. Ego in altíssimis hábito, et thronus meus in colúmna nubis.

Tunc autem admiratióni esse cœpérunt, quando própria claruérunt virtúte. Pátria vero nihil inde consecúta cécidit, et incéndio absúmpta est; concíves mísere interémpti periére; consanguínei secúndum carnem nil ad salútem lucráti sunt, deficiénte virtútis patrocínio. Verum Apóstoli ante omnes claríssimi evasérunt, cum se ad veram et expeténdam eius familiaritátem consuetudinémque per obediéntiam contulérunt. Hinc intellégimus, fide semper nobis opus esse, et vita quæ virtútibus lúceat: hæc dumtáxat salvos nos fácere póterit.

Then only did they begin to be worthy of admiration, when they shone by their own virtue. His native land, indeed, having gained nothing from its own connection with him, fell and was burnt by fire; his fellow-citizens were put to death and perished miserably; his kindred according to the flesh gained nothing towards their salvation; insofar as all these lacked the protection of virtue. But of them all, the Apostles became the most renowned, since by obedience they joined themselves to him in a right and desirable friendship and companionship. From this we learn, that we always have need of faith, and a life shining with virtues; since this alone will have power to save us.

50:4 Ámplius lava me ab iniquitáte mea: * et a peccáto meo munda me.

50:4 Wash me yet more from my iniquity, * and cleanse me from my sin.

50:5 Quóniam iniquitátem meam ego cognósco: * et peccátum meum contra me est semper.

50:5 For I know my iniquity, * and my sin is always before me.

50:6 Tibi soli peccávi, et malum coram te feci: * ut iustificéris in sermónibus tuis, et vincas cum iudicáris.

50:6 To thee only have I sinned, and have done evil before thee: * that thou mayst be justified in thy words, and mayst overcome when thou art judged.

50:7 Ecce enim, in iniquitátibus concéptus sum: * et in peccátis concépit me mater mea.

50:7 For behold I was conceived in iniquities; * and in sins did my mother conceive me.

50:8 Ecce enim, veritátem dilexísti: * incérta et occúlta sapiéntiæ tuæ manifestásti mihi.

50:8 For behold thou hast loved truth: * the uncertain and hidden things of thy wisdom thou hast made manifest to me.

50:18 For if thou hadst desired sacrifice, I would indeed have given it: * with burnt offerings thou wilt not be delighted.

50:19 Sacrifícium Deo spíritus contribulátus: * cor contrítum, et humiliátum, Deus, non despícies.

50:19 A sacrifice to God is an afflicted spirit: * a contrite and humbled heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.

50:20 Benígne fac, Dómine, in bona voluntáte tua Sion: * ut ædificéntur muri Ierúsalem.

50:20 Deal favourably, O Lord, in thy good will with Sion; * that the walls of Jerusalem may be built up.

50:21 Tunc acceptábis sacrifícium iustítiæ, oblatiónes, et holocáusta: * tunc impónent super altáre tuum vítulos.

72:11 Et dixérunt: Quómodo scit Deus, * et si est sciéntia in excélso?

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.

72:12 Behold these are sinners; and yet abounding in the world * they have obtained riches.

72:13 Et dixi: Ergo sine causa iustificávi cor meum, * et lavi inter innocéntes manus meas:

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.

72:24 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.

9 Vocavítque Dóminus Deus Adam, et dixit ei: Ubi es?

9 And the Lord God called Adam, and said to him: Where art thou?

10 Qui ait: Vocem tuam audívi in paradiso; et tímui eo quod nudus essem, et abscóndi me.

10 And he said: I heard thy voice in paradise; and I was afraid, because I was naked, and I hid myself.

11 Cui dixit: Quis enim indicávit tibi quod nudus esses, nisi quod ex ligno de quo præcéperam tibi ne coméderes, comedísti?

11 And he said to him: And who hath told thee that thou wast naked, but that thou hast eaten of the tree whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldst not eat?

12 Dixítque Adam: Múlier quam dedísti mihi sóciam, dedit mihi de ligno, et comédi.

12 And Adam said: The woman, whom thou gavest me to be my companion, gave me of the tree, and I did eat.

13 Et dixit Dóminus Deus ad mulíerem: Quare hoc fecísti? Quæ respóndit: Serpens decépit me, et comédi.

13 And the Lord God said to the woman: Why hast thou done this? And she answered: The serpent deceived me, and I did eat.

14 Et ait Dóminus Deus ad serpéntem: Quia fecísti hoc, maledíctus es inter ómnia animántia et béstias terræ; super pectus tuum gradiéris, et terram cómedes cunctis diébus vitæ tuæ.

14 And the Lord God said to the serpent: Because thou hast done this thing, thou art cursed among all cattle, and beasts of the earth: upon thy breast shalt thou go, and earth shalt thou eat all the days of thy life.

15 Inimicítias ponam inter te et mulíerem, et semen tuum et semen illíus; ipsa cónteret caput tuum, et tu insidiáberis calcáneo eius.

15 I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head, and thou shalt lie in wait for her heel.

* Et sicut dies verni circúmdabant eam flores rosárum et lília convállium.

21 Quóniam quidem per hóminem mors, et per hóminem resurréctio mortuórum.

24 Afterwards the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God and the Father, when he shall have brought to nought all principality, and power, and virtue.

Hódie Eden novi Adam paradísum súscipit animátum, in quo solúta est condemnátio, in quo plantátum est lignum vitæ, in quo opérta fuit nostra núditas.

This day the holy and animated Ark of the living God, which had held within it its own Maker, is borne to rest in that Temple of the Lord, which is not made with hands. David, whence it sprang, leapeth before it, and in company with him the Angels dance, the Archangels sing aloud, the Virtues ascribe glory, the Princedoms shout for joy, the Powers make merry, the Lordships rejoice, the Thrones keep holiday, the Cherubim utter praise, and the Seraphim proclaim its glory. This day the Eden of the new Adam receiveth the living garden of delight, wherein the condemnation was annulled, wherein the Tree of Life was planted, wherein our nakedness was covered.

Hódie Virgo immaculáta, quæ nullis terrénis inquináta est afféctibus, sed cæléstibus educáta cogitatiónibus, non in terram revérsa est; sed, cum esset animátum cælum, in cæléstibus tabernáculis collocátur. Ex qua enim ómnibus vera vita manávit, quómodo illa mortem gustáret? Sed cedit legi latæ ab eo quem génuit; et, ut fília véteris Adam, véterem senténtiam súbiit (nam et eius Fílius, qui est vita ipsa, eam non recusávit); ut autem Dei vivéntis Mater, ad illum ipsum digne assúmitur.

This day the stainless maiden, who had been defiled by no earthly lust, but ennobled by heavenly desires, returned not to dust, but, being herself a living heaven, took her place among the heavenly mansions. From her true life had flowed for all men, and how should she taste of death? But she yielded obedience to the law established by Him to Whom she had given birth, and, as the daughter of the old Adam, underwent the old sentence, which even her Son, Who is the very Life Itself, had not refused; but, as the Mother of the living God, she was worthily taken by Him unto Himself.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

Ex Actis Pii Papæ duodécimi

From the Acts of Pope Pius XII

Quóniam vero univérsa Ecclésia fidem in corpóream beátæ Maríæ Vírginis Assumptiónem per sæculórum decúrsum manifestávit, et totíus orbis Epíscopi prope unánimi consensióne petiérunt ut hæc véritas, quæ Sacris Lítteris innítitur, Christifidélium ánimis pénitus est ínsita, ceterísque revelátis veritátibus plane cónsona, tamquam divínæ et cathólicæ fídei dogma definirétur, Pius duodécimus Póntifex Máximus, totíus Ecclésiæ votis ánnuens, státuit hoc Beátæ Maríæ Vírginis privilégium solémniter renuntiáre. Itaque die prima Novémbris anni máximi Iubilǽi millésimi nongentésimi quinquagésimi, Romæ, in foro ad sancti Petri Basílicam paténte, plurimórum Sanctæ Románæ Ecclésiæ Cardinálium atque Episcopórum ex díssitis étiam regiónibus astánte cœtu, coram ingénti Christifidélium multitúdine, univérso cathólico orbe plaudénte, corpóream Beátæ Maríæ Vírginis Assumptiónem in cælum infallíbili oráculo in hæc verba proclamávit: Postquam súpplices étiam atque étiam ad Deum admóvimus preces, ac Veritátis Spíritus lumen invocávimus, ad Omnipoténtis Dei glóriam, qui peculiárem benevoléntiam suam Maríæ Vírgini dilargítus est, ad sui Fílii honórem, immortális sæculórum Regis ac peccáti mortísque victóris, ad eiúsdem augústæ Matris augéndam glóriam et ad totíus Ecclésiæ gáudium exsultationémque, auctoritáte Dómini Nostri Iesu Christi, Beatórum Apostolórum Petri et Pauli ac Nostra pronuntiámus, declarámus et definímus revelátum dogma esse: Immaculátam Deíparam semper Vírginem Maríam, expléto terréstris vitæ cursu, fuísse córpore et ánima ad cæléstem glóriam assúmptam.

Since indeed the universal Church hath at all times and throughout the ages manifested faith in the bodily Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and since the Bishops of the whole world by an almost unanimous agreement have petitioned that this truth, which is enshrined in Sacred Scripture and deeply rooted in the souls of Christ's faithful, and is also truly in accord with other revealed truths, should be defined as a dogma of the divine and Catholic Faith, Pope Pius XII, acceding to the requests of the whole Church, decreed that this privilege of the Blessed Virgin Mary be solemnly proclaimed, and thus, on the first day of November of the year of the Great Jubilee, nineteen hundred and fifty, at Rome, in the open square before the Basilica of St. Peter, surrounded by a throng of many Cardinals and Bishops of the Holy Roman Church who had come from distant parts of the earth, and before a great multitude of the faithful, with the whole Catholic world rejoicing, proclaimed in these words and with infallible statement the bodily Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary into heaven: Wherefore, having offered to God continual prayers of supplication, and having invoked the light of the Spirit of Truth, to the glory of Almighty God who hath enriched the Virgin Mary with his special favour; in honour of his Son, the immortal King of ages and victor over sin and death; for the increase of the glory of the same august Mother, and for the joy and exultation of the whole Church, by the authority of Our Lord Jesus Christ, of the holy Apostles Peter and Paul, and by our own authority, we pronounce, declare and define it to be a divinely revealed dogma that: The Immaculate Mother of God, Mary ever Virgin, was, at the end of her earthly life, assumed body and soul into heavenly glory.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Beáta es, Virgo María, quæ Dóminum portásti, Creatórem mundi:

℟. Blessed art thou, O Virgin Mary, who hast carried the Lord, the Maker of the world.

* Genuísti qui te fecit, et in ætérnum pérmanes Virgo.

* Thou hast borne Him Who created thee, and thou abidest a virgin for ever.

℣. Ave, María, grátia plena; Dóminus tecum.

℣. Hail, Mary, full of grace. the Lord is with thee.

Homilía sancti Petri Canísii Presbýteri

A Homily by St. Peter Canisius, the Priest

De Maria Deipara Virgine, lib. 5, c. 6

De Maria Deipara Virgine, lib. 5, c. 6

Férias Deíparæ sacras, ut frequénter, ita reverénter perágit Ecclésia, certo intéllegens, Deo gratum, et christifidélibus dignum, hoc esse offícium, quo inter beátos et beátas omnes beatíssima Dómini et Dei nostri mater, certis anni tempóribus ac públicis cæremóniis sæpenúmero celebrátur. Inter has autem férias, quæ tot sǽculis religióse háctenus observántur, festum Assumptiónis máximum reputátur, locúmque príncipem tenet. Nec dies quidem ullus Maríæ lǽtior feliciórque cóntigit, si novam et ánimæ et córporis felicitátem eo die illi collátam rite contemplémur: ideóque si ántea unquam, tunc vel máxime spíritus et ánima et corpus eius in Deum vivum mirabíliter exsultávit, ípsaque summo iure dícere pótuit: Respéxit humilitátem ancíllæ suæ: Ecce enim ex hoc beátam me dicent omnes generatiónes: quia fecit mihi magna qui potens est.

The Church frequently and reverently keepeth feastdays dedicated to the Mother of God, realizing that it is a work pleasing to God and worthy of the faithful if many feasts, with fixed dates and public ceremonies, are celebrated in honour of the most blessed of all the blessed in heaven, the Mother of our Lord and God. Among all these feasts which have been celebrated so devotedly for so many years, even unto the present day, the Feast of the Assumption is considered the greatest and holdeth chief place. Indeed there was no happier or more joyful day for Mary, if we duly consider the happiness of both body and soul granted to her on that day. Then especially, as never before, her spirit, soul and body rejoiced wondrously in the living God and she could rightfully say: He hath regarded the lowliness of his handmaiden; for behold, all generations shall call me blessed; for he that is mighty hath magnified me.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Diffúsa est grátia in lábiis tuis:

℟. Grace is poured into thy lips

* Proptérea benedíxit te Deus in ætérnum.

* Therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.

℣. Myrrha, et gutta, et cásia a vestiméntis tuis, a dómibus ebúrneis, ex quibus delectavérunt te fíliæ regum in honóre tuo.

℣. thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of the ivory palaces whereby kings' daughters among thy honourable women have made thee glad.

℟. Proptérea benedíxit te Deus in ætérnum.

℟. Therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

Quare nos étiam, qui te Filiúmque tuum amámus, o ter beáta et vere augústa Mater, non póssumus huic præcláræ et incomparábili felicitáti tuæ non ex ánimo gratulári, quandóquidem quæcúmque a Dómino tibi et de te dicta sunt, tam pulchro éxitu concludúntur, ac omni ex parte tandem perficiúntur. Beáta quæ non modo credidísti, sed fídei étiam omnísque virtútis fructum et finem hódie consecúta es, et eius quem tantópere amásti atque desiderásti, iucundíssimo conspéctu nunc demum pérfrui meruísti.

O thrice blessed and truly august Mother, it is for this reason that we who love thee and thy Son cannot refrain from congratulating thee with all sincerity upon thine admirable and incomparable happiness, especially since everything that hath been said to thee and about thee by the Lord, is brought to a conclusion by thy beautiful passing away from this life, and in every wise hath been perfectly fulfilled. Blessed art thou who hast not only believed but hast this day attained unto the end of faith and the fruit of all virtue, and now at last hast merited to enjoy the most pleasing sight of him whom thou didst love and desire so greatly. Thyself a guest, thou didst receive Emmanuel who as a guest did enter into thee, as into a mighty fortress in this world; and today, thou in turn art received by him into his royal mansion, and magnificently welcomed with the highest honour, as befitteth one found worthy to be the Mother of such a Solomon.

O blessed day which sent so precious a gift from the desert of this world, and carried it to the holy and eternal city, so that universal and unheard of joy no less than admiration welled up in all the blessed in heaven. O blessed day, that fulfilled the long and ardent yearning of the gentle spouse, so that she might find what she had sought, that she might receive what she asked; that what she awaited she might possess securely, resting safely at last in that perfect vision and inward joy of the eternal and all-great Goodness. O blessed day which raised up and so highly exalted this most humble handmaiden of the Lord that she might become the most glorious Queen of Heaven and the mistress of the world. Indeed she could not have risen to more sublime heights since she had been elevated to the very Throne of the heavenly kingdom, and thus was established in glory next after Christ. O blessed and truly honourable is this day which constituted and confirmed for us a Queen and Mother who is at once powerful and merciful in the kingdom of God, that we might have her, who ever remaineth the Mother of the Judge, as a Mother of mercy protecting us and interceding for us with Christ, unceasingly watching over the work of our salvation.

Sermo sancti Epiphánii Epíscopi

From the Sermons of St. Epiphanius, Bishop (of Pavia)

Orat. de Laud. Virg. sub init.

Discourse on the Praises of the Virgin

De radíce Iesse ortus est rex David, et de tribu regis David sancta Virgo: sancta, inquam, et sanctórum virórum fília, cuius paréntes fuérunt Ióachim et Anna; qui quidem in vita sua Deo placuérunt, atque étiam fructum eiúsmodi germinavérunt, sanctam Vírginem Maríam, templum simul et matrem Dei. Ióachim porro, Anna et María, hi tres Trinitáti palam sacrifícium laudis offerébant. Ióachim enim interpretátur Præparátio Dómini, eo quod ex illo præparátum sit templum Dómini, nempe Virgo. Anna rursus simíliter Grátia interpretátur, proptérea quod Ióachim et Anna grátiam accepérunt, ut accedéntibus précibus, talem fructum germinárent, sanctam Vírginem adépti; Ióachim síquidem precabátur in monte, et Anna in horto suo.

From the Root of Jesse sprang King David, and from the stock of King David, the Holy Virgin. Holy I call her, and the daughter of holy men. Her father and mother were Joachim and Anne, who pleased God in their lives, and brought forth an offspring well pleasing to Him, even the Holy Virgin Mary, at once the Temple and the Mother of God. These three, Joachim, Anne, and Mary, clearly offered up unto the Trinity a sacrifice of praise. For the name Joachim being interpreted, signifieth “the preparation of the Lord”, and out of him was prepared the Temple of the Lord, namely, the Virgin. The name Anne signifieth grace, and she and Joachim did indeed receive a grace when, in answer to their prayers, they generated such an offspring, compassing the Holy Virgin. Joachim prayed upon the mountain and Anne in her garden.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Honéstum fecit illum Dóminus, et custodívit eum ab inimícis, et a seductóribus tutávit illum:

℟. The Lord made him honourable, and defended him from his enemies, and kept him safe from those that lay in wait for him;

* Et dedit illi claritátem ætérnam.

* And gave him perpetual glory.

℣. Iustum dedúxit Dóminus per vias rectas, et osténdit illi regnum Dei.

℣. He went down with him into the pit, and left him not in bonds.

℟. Et dedit illi claritátem ætérnam.

℟. And gave him perpetual glory.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

℣. Grant, Lord, a blessing.

Sermo sancti Ioánnis Damascéni

From the Sermons of St. John of Damascus

Oratio 1 de Virg. Mariæ Nativit., circa principium

1st on the Birth of the Blessed Virgin Mary

Quóniam futúrum erat ut Dei Génetrix et Virgo ex Anna orirétur, natúra grátiæ fœtum antevértere mínime ausa est; verum tantísper exspectávit, dum grátia fructum suum produxísset. Síquidem oportébat eam primogénitam in lucem edi, quæ rerum ómnium conditárum Primogénitum, in quo ómnia coagmentáta sunt, paritúra erat. O par beátum Ióachim et Anna! vobis omnis creatúra obstrícta est. Per vos enim donum, ómnium donórum præstantíssimum, Creatóri óbtulit, nempe castam matrem, quæ sola Creatóre digna erat.

Since it was to be that the Virgin Mother of God should be born of Anne, nature dared not to produce any other child before this child of grace, but humbly waited until grace should have produced her's. It behoved that she should come into the world as a first-born, who was to bear the First-born of every creature, even Him by Whom all things were made. O blessed couple, Joachim and Anne unto you is all creation laid under debt, since through you creation hath offered to the Creator this noblest of gifts, namely, that chaste mother, who alone was worthy of the Creator.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Amávit eum Dóminus, et ornávit eum: stolam glóriæ índuit eum,

℟. The Lord loved him and beautified him; He clothed him with a robe of glory,

* Et ad portas paradísi coronávit eum.

* And crowned him at the gates of Paradise.

℣. Índuit eum Dóminus lorícam fídei, et ornávit eum.

℣. The Lord hath put on him the breast-plate of faith, and hath adorned him.

℟. Et ad portas paradísi coronávit eum.

℟. And crowned him at the gates of Paradise.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

Exsúlta, Ióachim, quóniam ex fília tua Fílius natus est nobis; et vocátur nomen eius magni consílii, hoc est, salútis totíus mundi Angelus. Pudóre afficiátur Nestórius, ac manum ori impónat. Puer hic Deus est. Quonam ígitur modo ea Dei Génetrix non sit, quæ péperit? Si quis sanctam Dei Genetrícem non confitétur, a Deitáte remótus est. Mea non est hæc orátio, quamquam alióqui mea; hanc enim diviníssimam hereditátem a theólogo patre Gregório accépi. O beátum par Ióachim et Anna! Ac profécto ex ventris vestri fructu immaculáti agnoscímini, quemádmodum Christus quodam loco dixit: Ex frúctibus eórum cognoscétis eos. Ut Deo gratum erat ac dignum ea quæ a vobis orta est, vitæ vestræ ratiónes instituístis. Caste enim ac sancte múnere vestro functi, virginitátis thesáurum produxístis.

Rejoice, O Joachim, from whose daughter a Child hath unto us been born, and His name is called The Angel of the Great Counsel, that is, of the salvation of the whole world. Let Nestorius be ashamed, and put his hand upon his mouth. Her Child is God. How then can His Mother be other than Mother of God? Whosoever acknowledgeth not the Holy Mother of God is far from God. This saying is not mine, although it is mine in all other senses than that of authority. I have received it as a most godly legacy from Father Gregory the Divine. O blessed couple, Joachim and Anne. Christ saith in a certain place: By their fruits ye shall know them Matth. iii. 20 and ye are known by the fruit of your chaste loins. That that which should be born of you might be worthy and well-pleasing in the sight of God, ye ordered your own lives by rule. In the chaste and holy exercise of your natural gift, ye produced the treasure of virginity.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Iste homo perfécit ómnia quæ locútus est ei Deus, et dixit ad eum: Ingrédere in réquiem meam:

* Quia te vidi iustum coram me ex ómnibus géntibus.

* For thee have I seen righteous before Me among all people.

℣. Iste est, qui contémpsit vitam mundi, et pervénit ad cæléstia regna.

℣. This is he which loved not his life in this world, and is come unto an everlasting kingdom.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthǽum

From the Holy Gospel according to Matthew

Matt 1:1-16

Matt 1:1-16

Liber generatiónis Iesu Christi, fílii David, fílii Abraham. Abraham génuit Isaac, Isaac autem génuit Iacob. Et réliqua.

The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham. Abraham begat Isaac, and Isaac begat Jacob. And so on.

Homilía sancti Ioánnis Damascéni

Homily by St. John of Damascus

Lib. 4 de Fide orthodoxa, cap. 15 de Domini genealogia et sanctae Dei Genetricis

Bk. iv on the Orthodox Faith

Quod Ioseph ex davídica tribu oríginem dúxerit, sanctíssimi Evangelístæ Matthǽus et Lucas líquido demonstrárunt. Verum, hoc inter eos discríminis est, quod Matthǽus ex Davíde per Salomónem Ioséphum dedúcit; Lucas autem per Nathan. At vero sanctæ Vírginis ortum utérque siléntio prætériit. Quocírca scire óperæ prétium est, nec apud Hebrǽos nec apud Scriptúram sacram hoc in more pósitum fuísse, ut mulíerum genus recenserétur. Verum, hoc demum lege cautum erat ne tribus ulla uxóres ex áltera tribu accérseret. Ac proínde Ioseph, qui ex tribu davídica ortum trahébat iustitiámque colébat (hanc enim laudem ei tríbuit divínum Evangélium), sanctam Vírginem haudquáquam præter legis præscríptum despondísset, nisi ex eódem sceptro genus duxísset. Ob idque satis hábuit Evangelísta demonstrásse, unde Ioseph ortum tráxerit.

That Joseph sprang from the lineage of David, the most holy Evangelists Matthew and Luke have clearly shown. There is this difference between them, that Matthew traceth the pedigree from David through Solomon, and Luke through Nathan. But both of them pass in silence over the descent of the Holy Virgin. In explanation of this we shall find on investigation that among the Jews, and in the Holy Scriptures, it hath never been in use to chronicle the pedigrees of women. But the Law containeth a warning against the tribes intermarrying one with another. Joseph was of the same tribe as David, namely, Judah, and since he was a just man (this is the praise which the Gospel of God giveth him,) he would not have espoused the Holy Virgin, unless she had been of the same race, as such an union would not have been in accordance with the commandment of the law. For this reason the Evangelist held it enough to have shown the descent of Joseph.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Iste est qui ante Deum magnas virtútes operátus est, et de omni corde suo laudávit Dóminum:

℟. This is he which wrought great wonders before God, and praised the Lord with all his heart.

* Ipse intercédat pro peccátis ómnium populórum.

* May he pray for all people, that their sins may be forgiven unto them.

℣. Ecce homo sine queréla, verus Dei cultor, ábstinens se ab omni ópere malo, et pérmanens in innocéntia sua.

℣. Behold a man without blame, a worshipper of God in truth, keeping himself clean from every evil work, and abiding still in his innocency.

℟. Ipse intercédat pro peccátis ómnium populórum.

℟. May he pray for all people, that their sins may be forgiven unto them.

Igitur ex stirpe Nathan, fílii David, Levi génuit Melchi et Panthérem. Panther autem génuit Barpanthérem (namque ita vocabátur). Barpánther rursus génuit Ióachim. Ióachim dénique génuit sanctam Dei Genetrícem. Rursus, ex stirpe Salomónis, fílii David, Mathan ex uxóre sua génuit Iacob. Mórtuo autem Mathan, Melchi ex tribu Nathan, fílius Levi ac frater Panthéris, uxórem ipsíus Mathan, quæ étiam Iacóbi mater erat, matrimónio sibi copulávit, atque ex ea génuit Heli. Ita uteríni fratres erant Iacob et Heli; ille nimírum ex tribu Salomónis, hic ex tribu Nathan oriúndus.

Therefore, from the stock of Nathan the son of David, Levi begat Melchi and Panther and Panther begat Bar-Panther (for so was he called) and Bar-Panther begat Joachim and Joachim begat the Holy Mother of God. Again, from the stock of Solomon the son of David, Mathan of his wife begat Jacob. And after Mathan was dead, Melchi, of the family of Nathan, son to Levi and brother to Panther, took to him in marriage her that had been the wife of Mathan, and was mother of Jacob, and begat of her Heli. So that Jacob and Heli were half-brothers, sons of the same mother, but one of the stock of Solomon and the other of the stock of Nathan.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

Porro Heli, qui ex tribu Nathan erat, nullis líberis suscéptis, e vita migrávit; eáque de causa Iacob ipsíus frater, qui ex tribu Salomónis flúxerat, ipsíus uxórem accépit, fratríque suo semen excitávit ac Ioséphum progénuit. Ioseph ítaque natúra quidem fílius Iacob erat, a Salomóne oriúndus; legis autem ratióne patrem habébat Heli, ex Nathan oriúndum. Quæ cum ita sint, Ióachim lectíssimam illam ac summis láudibus dignam mulíerem Annam matrimónio sibi copulávit. Verum, quemádmodum prisca illa Anna, cum sterilitátis morbo laboráret, per oratiónem ac promissiónem, Samuélem procreávit; eódem modo hæc étiam, per obsecratiónem et promissiónem, Dei Genetrícem a Deo accépit, ut ne hic quoque cuíquam ex illústribus matrónis céderet. Itaque grátia (nam hoc sonat Annæ vocábulum) Dóminam parit (id enim Maríæ nómine significátur). Vere étenim rerum ómnium conditárum Dómina facta est, cum Creatóris Mater éxstitit.

Then Heli, who was the descendant of Nathan, died, having had no children. Whereupon, Jacob, who was the descendant of Solomon, took to himself the widow of his half-brother Heli, to raise up seed unto his brother, and begat of her Joseph. So Joseph was by nature the son of Jacob the descendant of Solomon, but in the eye of the Law he had for his father Heli the descendant of Nathan. Things being thus, Joachim took to wife that most eminent and praiseworthy woman, Anne. And even as the patient Hannah, being stricken with barrenness, by prayer and promise became the mother of Samuel, so likewise this woman also through prayer and promise received from God the Mother of God, that in fruitfulness she might not be behind any of the famous matrons. And thus grace (for such is the signification of the name of Anne) is mother of the Lady (for such is the signification of the name of Mary.) And indeed she became the Lady of every creature, since she hath been mother of the Creator.

Then the king commanded to beat in their heads with the handles of oars, and so they finished the lovely course of their fight, and were crowned by the Lord.

1 Dilígite iustítiam, qui iudicátis terram, sentíte de Dómino in bonitáte et in simplicitáte cordis quǽrite illum;

3 Pervérsæ enim cogitatiónes séparant a Deo, probáta autem virtus córripit insipiéntes;

4 Quóniam in malévolam ánimam non introíbit sapiéntia, nec habitábit in córpore súbdito peccátis.

Wis 1:5-8

5 Spíritus enim sanctus disciplínæ effúgiet fictum et áuferet se a cogitatiónibus quæ sunt sine intelléctu et corripiétur a superveniénte iniquitáte.

5 For the Holy Spirit of discipline will flee from the deceitful, and will withdraw himself from thoughts that are without understanding, and he shall not abide when iniquity cometh in.

6 Benígnus est enim spíritus sapiéntiæ et non liberábit malédicum a lábiis suis; quóniam renum illíus testis est Deus et cordis illíus scrutátor est verus, et linguæ eius audítor:

6 For the spirit of wisdom is benevolent, and will not acquit the evil speaker from his lips: for God is witness of his reins, and he is a true searcher of his heart, and a hearer of his tongue.

7 Quóniam spíritus Dómini replévit orbem terrárum, et hoc quod cóntinet ómnia, sciéntiam habet vocis.

7 For the spirit of the Lord hath filled the whole world: and that, which containeth all things, hath knowledge of the voice.

9 In cogitatiónibus enim ímpii interrogátio erit, sermónum autem illíus audítio ad Deum véniet ad correptiónem iniquitátum illíus;

9 For inquisition shall be made into the thoughts of the ungodly: and the hearing of his words shall come to God, to the chastising of his iniquities.

10 Quóniam auris zeli audit ómnia, et tumúltus murmuratiónum non abscondétur.

10 For the ear of jealousy heareth all things, and the tumult of murmuring shall not be hid.

11 Custodíte ergo vos a murmuratióne, quæ nihil prodest, et a detractióne párcite linguæ, quóniam sermo obscúrus in vácuum non ibit, os autem quod mentítur occídit ánimam.

11 Keep yourselves therefore from murmuring, which profiteth nothing, and refrain your tongue from detraction, for an obscure speech shall not go for nought: and the mouth that belieth, killeth the soul.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Marcum

From the Holy Gospel according to Mark

Marc 7:31-37

Mark 7:31-37

In illo témpore: Exiens Iesus de fínibus Tyri venit per Sidónem ad mare Galilǽæ inter médios fines Decapóleos. Et réliqua.

At that time: Jesus, departing from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon, came unto the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the coasts of Decapolis. And so on.

Homilía sancti Gregórii Papæ

Homily by Pope St. Gregory the Great

Homilia 10, liber 1 in Ezech., ante medium

Hom. x. Bk. i. on Ezekiel

Quid est quod creátor ómnium Deus, cum surdum et mutum sanáre voluísset, in aures illíus suos dígitos misit, et éxspuens linguam eius tétigit? Quid per dígitos Redemptóris, nisi dona Sancti Spíritus designántur? Unde cum in álio loco eiecísset dæmónium, dixit: Si in dígito Dei eício dæmónia, profécto pervénit in vos regnum Dei. Qua de re per Evangelístam álium dixísse descríbitur: Si ego in Spíritu Dei eício dǽmones, ígitur pervénit in vos regnum Dei. Ex quo utróque loco collígitur, quia dígitus Spíritus vocátur. Dígitos ergo in aurículas míttere, est per dona Spíritus Sancti mentem surdi ad obediéndum aperíre.

What signifieth it that when God, the Maker of all, would heal a deaf and dumb man, “He put His Fingers into his ears, and He spit, and touched his tongue.” What is figured by the Fingers of the Redeemer but the gifts of the Holy Ghost? Hence it is written in another place Luke xi. 20 that after He had cast out an evil spirit, He said: “If I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you.” Which words are thus given by another Evangelist Matth. xii. 28: “If I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you.” By setting these two passages together we see that the Spirit is called the Finger. For our Lord, then, to put His Fingers into the deaf man's ears was by the gift of the Holy Spirit to enlighten his dark mind unto obedience.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

1 Iustórum autem ánimæ in manu Dei sunt, et non tanget illos torméntum mortis.

2 Visi sunt óculis insipiéntium mori, et æstimáta est afflíctio éxitus illórum,

Wis 3:7-11

7 Fulgébunt iusti et tamquam scintíllæ in arundinéto discúrrent;

8 Iudicábunt natiónes et dominabúntur pópulis, et regnábit Dóminus illórum in perpétuum.

9 They that trust in him, shall understand the truth: and they that are faithful in love shall rest in him: for grace and peace is to his elect.

34:16 They were separated, and repented not: they tempted me, they scoffed at me with scorn: * they gnashed upon me with their teeth.

34:17 Dómine, quando respícies? * restítue ánimam meam a malignitáte eórum, a leónibus únicam meam.

De libro Sapiéntiæ

Lesson from the book of Wisdom

Sap 6:1-5

Wis 6:1-5

1 Mélior est sapiéntia quam vires, et vir prudens quam fortis.

1 Wisdom is better than strength, and a wise man is better than a strong man.

2 Audíte ergo, reges, et intellégite; díscite, iúdices fínium terræ;

2 Hear therefore, ye kings, and understand: learn, ye that are judges of the ends of the earth.

3 Præbéte aures, vos qui continétis multitúdines et placétis vobis in turbis natiónum;

3 Give ear, you that rule the people, and that please yourselves in multitudes of nations:

4 Quóniam data est a Dómino potéstas vobis, et virtus ab Altíssimo, qui interrogábit ópera vestra et cogitatiónes scrutábitur;

4 For power is given you by the Lord, and strength by the most High, who will examine your works, and search out your thoughts:

5 Quóniam, cum essétis minístri regni illíus, non recte iudicástis nec custodístis legem iustítiæ neque secúndum voluntátem Dei ambulástis.

5 Because being ministers of his kingdom, you have not judged rightly, nor kept the law of justice, nor walked according to the will of God.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

* Ut addátur grátia cápiti tuo.

* For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thine head.

℣. Atténde, fili mi, sapiéntiam meam et ad elóquium meum inclína aurem tuam.

℣. My son, attend unto my wisdom, and incline thine ear unto my sayings.

℟. Ut addátur grátia cápiti tuo.

℟. For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thine head.

Sap 6:6-9

Wis 6:6-9

6 Horrénde et cito apparébit vobis, quóniam iudícium duríssimum his qui præsunt fiet.

6 Horribly and speedily will he appear to you: for a most severe judgment shall be for them that bear rule.

7 Exíguo enim concéditur misericórdia; poténtes autem poténter torménta patiéntur;

7 For to him that is little, mercy is granted: but the mighty shall be mightily tormented.

8 Non enim súbtrahet persónam cuiúsquam Deus nec verébitur magnitúdinem cuiúsquam; quóniam pusíllum et magnum ipse fecit, et æquáliter cura est illi de ómnibus;

8 For God will not except any man's person, neither will he stand in awe of any man's greatness: for he made the little and the great, and he hath equally care of all.

9 Fortióribus autem fórtior instat cruciátio.

9 But a greater punishment is ready for the more mighty.

Sap 6:10-13

Wis 6:10-13

10 Ad vos ergo, reges, sunt hi sermónes mei, ut discátis sapiéntiam et non excidátis.

10 To you, therefore, O kings, are these my words, that you may learn wisdom, and not fall from it.

11 Qui enim custodíerint iusta iuste, iustificabúntur; et, qui didícerint ista, invénient quid respóndeant.

11 For they that have kept just things justly, shall be justified: and they that have learned these things, shall find what to answer.

12 Concupíscite ergo sermónes meos, dilígite illos et habébitis disciplínam.

12 Covet ye therefore my words, and love them, and you shall have instruction.

13 Clara est, et quæ numquam marcéscit, sapiéntia: et fácile vidétur ab his qui díligunt eam, et invenítur ab his qui quærunt illam.

13 Wisdom is glorious, and never fadeth away, and is easily seen by them that love her, and is found by them that seek her.

Ioánnes, anno millésimo sexcentésimo primo, in pago vulgo Ri, Sagiénsis diœcésis, ex piis honestísque paréntibus ortus est. Adhuc puer, iam Angelórum pane reféctus, perpétuam castitátem vovit. In scholis, ubi laudabíliter stúdia perégit, mira pietáte enítuit. Beátam Vírginem summópere diléxit, et exímia erga próximum caritáte exársit. Berulliáni Oratórii Congregatióni nomen dedit et sacerdótio Parísiis auctus est. Domus Oratoriánæ Cadómi Rector factus, ab eádem, licet ægre, discéssit, ut ad Ecclésiæ ministérium iúvenes idóneos institúeret. Quare quinque sibi adscítis sóciis, Congregatiónem Presbyterórum fundávit, cui Sanctíssima Iesu et Maríæ nómina dedit, et Cadómi primum Seminárium apéruit, quod póstea plura subsecúta sunt. Ut peccatríces mulíeres ad vitam christiánam revocáret, Dóminæ Nostræ a Caritáte Institútum fundávit: cuius nobilíssimæ árboris ramus est Congregátio Andegavénsis a Bono Pastóre Societátem ab admirábili Corde Matris Dei, et ália caritátis ópera adiécit. Singulári erga Sanctíssima Iesu et Maríæ Corda flagrans amóre, de litúrgico eis cultu præstándo non sine áliquo divíno afflátu primus cogitávit. Missionárius Apostólicus plúrimos pagos et urbes evangelizávit. Tot labóribus fractus, morti próximus, die décima nona augústi anno millésimo sexcentésimo octogésimo plácide expirávit. Quem Pius Papa décimus miráculis clarum, inter Beátos, Pius vero undécimus, anno sacro, die Pentecóstes, inter Sanctos rétulit, eiúsque Offícium ac Missam ad univérsam Ecclésiam exténdit.

John was born in 1601 of good, devout parents at the village of Ri in the diocese of Seez. While yet a boy, when he was refreshed with the Bread of Angels, he vowed perpetual virginity. In the schools, where he pursued his studies in a praiseworthy way, he shone for his wonderful piety. He loved the Blessed Virgin above all, and burned with great charity for his neighbour. Having joined the Berullian Congregation of the Oratory, he was ordained priest at Paris. He was made rector of the house of the Oratory at Caen, but left it, though sadly, to educate suitable young men for the ministry of the Church. To this end, with five companions, he founded the congregation of priests to which he gave the most holy Names of Jesus and Mary, and opened the first seminary at Caen, which was followed later by many others. In order to call sinful women back to a Christian life, he founded the Order of Our Lady of Charity. Of this noble tree, the Congregation of the Good Shepherd of Angers is a branch. He also founded the Society of the Admirable Heart of the Mother of God and other charitable institutions. Burning with a singular love for the most sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary, he was the first to think, not without some inspiration from God, of offering them a liturgical cult. As an Apostolic Missionary, he preached the Gospel to many villages and towns. Worn out with his great labours, he died peacefully on the 19th of August, 1680. Famous for many miracles, he was numbered among the Blessed by Pope Pius X, and among the Saints by Pope Pius XI on the day of Pentecost in the holy year, and his Office and Mass were extended to the universal Church.

In the country of Langres, [in the year 1153,] holy Bernard, the first Abbot of Clairvaux, glorious for his life, his teaching, and his miracles, whom the Supreme Pontiff Pius VIII declared and confirmed a Doctor of the Universal Church.

Romæ deposítio sancti Pii décimi, Papæ et Confessóris, fídei integritáte et ecclesiásticæ libertátis propugnatóris invícti, religionísque zelo insígnis, cuius festum tértio Nonas Septémbris recólitur.

In Judea, [in the year 1043 before Christ,] the holy Prophet Samuel, whose sacred bones, as writeth blessed Jerome, were carried to Constantinople by the Emperor Arcadius, and laid near the Hebdomon.

Apud montem Senárium, in Etrúria, natális sancti Manétii Confessóris, e septem Fundatóribus Ordinis Servórum beátæ Maríæ Vírginis; qui, eídem hymnos dicens, expiravit. Ipsíus autem ac Sociórum festum prídie Idus Februárii celebrátur.

On the same day, [in the fourth century,] the holy Senator Lucius. He was turned to the faith of Christ by seeing the constancy with which Theodore, Bishop of Cyrene, underwent martyrdom, and drew the President Dignian to the same belief; they went together to Cyprus, and when he saw other Christians there being crowned for confessing the Lord, he thrust himself forward and gained the same crown of martyrdom by being beheaded.

In Iudǽa sancti Samuélis Prophetæ, cuius sancta ossa (ut beátus Hierónymus scribit) Arcádius Augústus Constantinópolim tránstulit, et prope Séptimum collocávit.

In Thrace, thirty-seven holy martyrs, who under the President Apellian, for Christ's faith's sake, had their hands and feet cut off, and were cast into a furnace of fire. Likewise the holy martyrs Severus and Memnon the centurion, who finished their testimony by the same kind of death, and departed to heaven as conquerors.

50:18 For if thou hadst desired sacrifice, I would indeed have given it: * with burnt offerings thou wilt not be delighted.

50:19 Sacrifícium Deo spíritus contribulátus: * cor contrítum, et humiliátum, Deus, non despícies.

50:19 A sacrifice to God is an afflicted spirit: * a contrite and humbled heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.

Wis 7:1-6

1 Sum quidem et ego mortális homo, símilis ómnibus, et ex génere terréni illíus, qui prior factus est, et in ventre matris figurátus sum caro,

1 I myself also am a mortal man, like all others, and of the race of him, that was first made of the earth, and in the womb of my mother I was fashioned to be flesh.

2 Decem ménsium témpore coagulátus sum in sánguine: ex sémine hóminis et delectaménto somni conveniénte;

2 In the time of ten months I was compacted in blood, of the seed of man, and the pleasure of sleep concurring.

3 Et ego natus accépi commúnem áërem et in simíliter factam décidi terram et primam vocem símilem ómnibus emísi plorans;

3 And being born I drew in the common air, and fell upon the earth, that is made alike, and the first voice which I uttered was crying, as all others do.

4 In involuméntis nutrítus sum, et curis magnis.

4 I was nursed in swaddling clothes, and with great cares.

5 Nemo enim ex régibus áliud hábuit nativitátis inítium:

5 For none of the kings had any other beginning of birth.

℟. O Lord, Father and God of my life, leave me not to evil counsels; give me not a proud look, but turn away from me an haughty mind, O Lord turn away from me concupiscence,

* Et ánimo irreverénti et infruníto ne tradas me, Dómine.

Sap 7:7-10

Wis 7:7-10

7 Propter hoc optávi, et datus est mihi sensus; et invocávi, et venit in me spíritus sapiéntiæ;

7 Wherefore I wished, and understanding was given me: and I called upon God, and the spirit of wisdom came upon me:

8 Et præpósui illam regnis et sédibus, et divítias nihil esse duxi in comparatióne illíus.

8 And I preferred her before kingdoms and thrones, and esteemed riches nothing in comparison of her.

9 Nec comparávi illi lápidem pretiósum, quóniam omne aurum in comparatióne illíus aréna est exígua, et tamquam lutum æstimábitur argéntum in conspéctu illíus.

9 Neither did I compare unto her any precious stone: for all gold in comparison of her, is as a little sand, and silver in respect to her shall be counted as clay.

10 Super salútem et spéciem diléxi illam et propósui pro luce habére illam, quóniam inexstinguíbile est lumen illíus.

10 I loved her above health and beauty, and chose to have her instead of light: for her light cannot be put out.

Sap 7:11-14

Wis 7:11-14

11 Venérunt autem mihi ómnia bona páriter cum illa, et innumerábilis honéstas per manus illíus;

11 Now all good things came to me together with her, and innumerable riches through her hands,

12 Et lætátus sum in ómnibus, quóniam antecedébat me ista sapiéntia, et ignorábam quóniam horum ómnium mater est.

12 And I rejoiced in all these: for this wisdom went before me, and I knew not that she was the mother of them all.

13 Quam sine fictióne dídici et sine invídia commúnico et honestátem illíus non abscóndo.

13 Which I have learned without guile, and communicate without envy, and her riches I hide not.

14 Infinítus enim thesáurus est homínibus; quo qui usi sunt, partícipes facti sunt amicítiæ Dei, propter disciplínæ dona commendáti.

14 For she is an infinite treasure to men! which they that use, become the friends of God, being commended for the gift of discipline.

Bernárdus, Fontánis in Burgúndia honésto loco natus, usque a puerítia castitátem diligentíssime cóluit. Ætáte duórum et vigínti annórum, monastérium Cisterciénse, unde huius nóminis ordo incépit, ingréssus, fratres quoque suos aliósque multos addúxit ad eándem religiónem suscipiéndam. In vigíliis et oratiónibus mirífice se exercébat. Elucébat in eo humílitas, misericórdia, benígnitas, prudéntia, et assíduum cæléstia meditándi stúdium. Factus abbas Claravallénsis, multis in locis ædificávit monastéria, ubi præclára eius institútio ac disciplína diu víguit. Multa prætérea scripsit, in quibus appáret, eum doctrína pótius divínitus trádita quam labóre comparáta instrúctum fuísse. Exorátus a magnis princípibus de eórum componéndis controvérsiis et de ecclesiásticis rebus constituéndis, sǽpius in Itáliam venit. Innocéntium secúndum Pontíficem máximum in confutándo schísmate Petri Leónis egrégie adiúvit. Tres et sexagínta annos natus, óptime de Ecclésia méritus, obdormívit in Dómino.

Born of a good family at Fontaines in Burgundy, Bernard carefully cherished his chastity from his very boyhood. At the age of twenty-two he entered the monastery of Citeaux, from which the Cistercian Order taketh its name, and brought with him his brothers and many others to undertake the same religious life. He applied himself to vigils and prayer in a wonderful way. The virtues of humility, mercy, kindness, prudence shone out in him, together with constant zeal for meditating on divine things. He was made Abbot of Clairvaux and built monasteries in many places where his principles and discipline flourished for a long time. He also wrote many works in which it is clear that he had been instructed by teaching given him from heaven rather than by his own labour. Because he was implored by great princes to settle their disputes and to arrange the affairs of the Church, he went often to Italy, and was of great assistance to Pope Innocent II in confuting the schism of Peter de Leone. At the age of sixty-three, he fell asleep in the Lord, having earned great honour from the Church.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

De libro Sapiéntiæ

Lesson from the book of Wisdom

Sap 9:13-19

Wis 9:13-19

13 Quis hóminum póterit scire consílium Dei? aut quis póterit cogitáre quid velit Deus?

13 For who among men is he that can know the counsel of God? or who can think what the will of God is?

14 Cogitatiónes enim mortálium tímidæ, et incértæ providéntiæ nostræ;

14 For the thoughts of mortal men are fearful, and our counsels uncertain.

15 Corpus enim quod corrúmpitur ággravat ánimam, et terréna inhabitátio déprimit sensum multa cogitántem.

15 For the corruptible body is a load upon the soul, and the earthly habitation presseth down the mind that museth upon many things.

16 Et diffícile æstimámus quæ in terra sunt, et quæ in prospéctu sunt invenímus cum labóre; quæ autem in cælis sunt quis investigábit?

16 And hardly do we guess aright at things that are upon earth: and with labour do we find the things that are before us. But the things that are in heaven, who shall search out?

17 Sensum autem tuum quis sciet, nisi tu déderis sapiéntiam, et míseris Spíritum Sanctum tuum de altíssimis,

17 And who shall know thy thought, except thou give wisdom, and send thy Holy Spirit from above:

18 Et sic corréctæ sint sémitæ eórum qui sunt in terris, et quæ tibi placent didícerint hómines?

18 And so the ways of them that are upon earth may be corrected, and men may learn the things that please thee?

19 Nam per sapiéntiam sanáti sunt quicúmque placuérunt tibi, Dómine, a princípio.

19 For by wisdom they were healed, whosoever have pleased thee, O Lord, from the beginning.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. In princípio Deus ántequam terram fáceret, priúsquam abýssos constitúeret, priúsquam prodúceret fontes aquárum,

℟. God possessed me in the beginning, before He made the earth, before He created the depths, before He caused the fountains of water to spring.

* Antequam montes collocaréntur, ante omnes colles generávit me Dóminus.

* Before the mountains were settled, before there were any hills, did the Lord beget me.

℣. Quando præparábat cælos, áderam, cum eo cuncta compónens.

℣. When He prepared the heavens, I was there with Him, ordering all things.

℟. Antequam montes collocaréntur, ante omnes colles generávit me Dóminus.

℟. Before the mountains were settled, before there were any hills, did the Lord beget me.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

℣. Grant, Lord, a blessing.

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

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

℟. Amen.

℟. Amen.

1 Hæc illum, qui primus formátus est a Deo pater orbis terrárum, cum solus esset creátus, custodívit

1 She preserved him, that was first formed by God the father of the world, when he was created alone,

2 Et edúxit illum a delícto suo, et dedit illi virtútem continéndi ómnia.

2 And she brought him out of his sin, and gave him power to govern all things.

3 Ab hac ut recéssit iniústus in ira sua, per iram homicídii fratérni depériit.

3 But when the unjust went away from her in his anger, he perished by the fury wherewith he murdered his brother.

4 Propter quem, cum aqua deléret terram, sanávit íterum sapiéntia per contemptíbile lignum iustum gubérnans.

4 For whose cause, when water destroyed the earth, wisdom healed it again, directing the course of the just by contemptible wood.

5 Hæc, et in consénsu nequítiæ cum se natiónes contulíssent, scivit iustum et conservávit sine queréla Deo, et in fílii misericórdia fortem custodívit.

5 Moreover when the nations had conspired together to consent to wickedness, she knew the just, and preserved him without blame to God, and kept him strong against the compassion for his son.

Sap 10:6-9

Wis 10:6-9

6 Hæc iustum a pereúntibus ímpiis liberávit fugiéntem, descendénte igne in Pentápolim,

6 She delivered the just man who fled from the wicked that were perishing, when the fire came down upon Pentapolis:

7 Quibus in testimónium nequítiæ fumigabúnda constat desérta terra, et incérto témpore fructus habéntes árbores, et incredíbilis ánimæ memória stans figméntum salis.

7 Whose land for a testimony of their wickedness is desolate, and smoketh to this day, and the trees bear fruits that ripen not, and a standing pillar of salt is a monument of an incredulous soul.

8 Sapiéntiam enim prætereúntes, non tantum in hoc lapsi sunt ut ignorárent bona, sed et insipiéntiæ suæ reliquérunt homínibus memóriam, ut in his quæ peccavérunt nec latére potuíssent.

8 For regarding not wisdom, they did not only slip in this, that they were ignorant of good things, but they left also unto men a memorial of their folly, so that in the things in which they sinned, they could not so much as lie hid.

9 Sapiéntia autem hos qui se obsérvant a dolóribus liberávit.

9 But wisdom hath delivered from sorrow them that attend upon her.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

* Ut sciam, quid accéptum sit coram te omni témpore.

* That I may know at all times what is pleasing unto thee.

℣. Da mihi, Dómine, sédium tuárum assistrícem sapiéntiam.

℣. Give me wisdom, O Lord, that sitteth by thy throne.

℟. Ut sciam quid accéptum sit coram te omni témpore.

Ioánna Francísca Frémiot de Chantal, Divióne in Burgúndia claríssimis orta natálibus, adhuc puélla, matre orbáta, Deíparæ Vírginis, tutélæ se commendávit. Baróni de Chantal núptui a patre trádita, mulíerem fortem appríme réferens, ómnibus ómnia facta est. Viro in venatióne interémpto, continéntiæ voto se obstrínxit et sui victrix, occisóris fílium e sacro fonte suscípere non dubitávit. Ne autem a propósito castimóniæ observándæ in pósterum dimoverétur, voto innováto, sanctíssimum Iesu Christi nomen candénti ferro suo péctori inscúlpsit. A sancto Francísco Salésio, quo spíritus moderatóre usa fuit, divínam voluntátem edócta, sacri institúti Visitatiónis sanctæ Maríæ fundaménta iecit, quod longe latéque diffúdit. Cum dénique voto se obstrinxísset efficiéndi semper quod perféctius esse intellégeret, méritis reférta, Molínis migrávit ad Dóminum, anno millésimo sexcentésimo quadragésimo primo, die décima tértia decémbris, et a Cleménte décimo tértio albo Sanctórum adiécta est.

Born of noble parents at Dijon in Burgundy, Jane Frances Frémiot de Chantal lost her mother while she was still a girl, and commended herself to the care of the Virgin Mother of God. Her father gave her in marriage to the Baron de Chantal, and she shewed herself to be a valiant woman above all others, making herself all things to all persons. When her husband was killed while hunting, she made a vow of continence, and she so mastered herself that she did not hesitate to act as godmother to the son of the man who killed her husband. Lest later on she should be moved from her determination to observe chastity, she renewed her vow and inscribed the most holy Name of Jesus on her breast with a hot iron. With St. Francis de Sales as her spiritual director, who taught her the divine will, she laid the foundations of the religious Institute of the Visitation of Holy Mary, which she spread far and wide. Finally she bound herself by a vow always to do what she understood to be most perfect. Full of merits, she went to the Lord on the 13th day of December, 1641, at Moulins, and was enrolled among the Saints by Clement XIII.

72:11 Et dixérunt: Quómodo scit Deus, * et si est sciéntia in excélso?

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.

72:12 Behold these are sinners; and yet abounding in the world * they have obtained riches.

72:13 Et dixi: Ergo sine causa iustificávi cor meum, * et lavi inter innocéntes manus meas:

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.

72:23 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:

Sermo sancti Bernardíni Senénsis

From a Sermon by St. Bernardine of Siena

Ex sermone 9 de visitatione

From sermon 9 on the Visitation

Quis mortálium, nisi divíno tutus oráculo, de vera Dei et hóminis Genetríce quidquam módicum, sive grande præsúmat incircumcísis, immo pollútis lábiis nomináre, quam Pater ante sǽcula Deus perpétuam prædestinávit in Vírginem, digníssimam Fílius elégit in Matrem, Spíritus Sanctus omnis grátiæ domicílium præparávit? Quibus verbis ego homúnculus sensus altíssimos virgínei Cordis, sanctíssimo ore prolátos, éfferam, quibus non súfficit lingua ómnium Angelórum? Dóminus enim ait: Bonus homo de bono thesáuro cordis profert bona; quod verbum potest étiam esse thesáurus. Quis inter puros hómines mélior homo potest excogitári, quam illa, quæ méruit éffici Mater Dei, quæ novem ménsibus in corde et in útero suo ipsum Deum hospitáta est? Quis thesáurus mélior, quam ipse divínus amor quo fornáceum cor Vírginis ardens erat?

What man, unless secure in a divine oracle, may presume to speak with impure, indeed with polluted lips, anything little or great about the true Parent of God and of man, whom the Father before all ages predestined a perpetual Virgin, whom the Son chose as his most worthy Mother, whom the Holy Ghost prepared as the dwelling place of every grace? With what words shall I, a lowly man, give expression to the highest sentiments of the virginal Heart uttered by the holiest mouth, for which the tongues of all the Angels do not suffice? For the Lord saith: A good man bringeth forth good things from the good treasure of his heart; and this word can also be a treasure. Among pure mortals who can be conceived of as better than she who was worthy to be the Mother of God, who for nine months had as a guest in her heart and in her womb God himself? What better treasure than the divine love itself, which was burning in the Heart of the Virgin as in a furnace?

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Sicut cedrus exaltáta sum in Líbano, et sicut cypréssus in monte Sion: quasi myrrha elécta,

℟. I was exalted like a cedar in Lebanon, and as a cypress-tree upon Mount Zion. Like the best myrrh

* Dedi suavitátem odóris.

* I yielded a pleasant odour.

℣. Et sicut cinnamómum et bálsamum aromatízans.

℣. Like cinnamon and sweet balsam.

℟. Dedi suavitátem odóris.

℟. I yielded a pleasant odour.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

℣. Grant, Lord, a blessing.

Benedictio. Christus perpétuæ det nobis gáudia vitæ.

Benediction. May Christ to all His people give, for ever in His sight to live.

℟. Amen.

De hoc ígitur Corde quasi de fornáce divíni ardóris Virgo beáta prótulit verba bona, id est, verba ardentíssimæ caritátis. Sicut enim a vase summo et óptimo vino pleno, non potest exíre nisi óptimum vinum; aut sicut a fornáce summi ardóris non egréditur nisi incéndium fervens; sic quippe a Christi Matre exíre non pótuit verbum, nisi summi summéque divíni amóris atque ardóris. Sapiéntis quoque dóminæ et matrónæ est pauca verba, sólida tamen atque sententiósa habére; proínde septem vícibus quasi septem verba tantum miræ senténtiæ et virtútis a Christi benedictíssima Matre legúntur dicta, ut mýstice ostendátur ipsam fuísse plenam grátia septifórmi. Cum Angelo bis tantúmmodo est locúta. Cum Elísabeth bis étiam. Cum Fílio étiam bis, semel in templo, secúndo in núptiis. Cum minístris semel. Et in his ómnibus semper valde parum locúta est; excépto quod in laude Dei et gratiárum actióne se ámplius dilatávit, scílicet, quum ait: Magníficat ánima mea Dóminum. Ubi non cum hómine, sed cum Deo locúta fuit. Hæc septem verba secúndum septem amóris procéssus et actus sub miro gradu et órdine sunt proláta; quasi sint septem flammæ fornácei Cordis eius.

And so, from this Heart as from a furnace of divine ardor the Blessed Virgin brought forth good words, that is, words of the most ardent charity. For as from a vessel full of the richest and best wine only good wine can be poured; or as from a furnace of intense heat only a burning fire is emítted; so indeed from the Mother of Christ no word can go forth except of the greatest and most intense divine love and ardor. It is also the mark of a wise woman and matron to speak few words, but words that are effective and full of meaning; and so seven times, as it were, seven words of such wonderful meaning and virtue are read as having been uttered by the Most Blessed Mother of Christ, that mystically it may be shown she was full of the sevenfold grace. To the Angel twice only did she speak; to Elizabeth also twice; with her Son likewise twice, once in the temple, and a second time at the marriage feast; and once to the attendants. And on all those occasions she always said very little; with this one exception that she spake at length in the praise of God and in thanksgiving, namely, when she said: My soul doth magnify the Lord. But here she did not speak with man, but with God. Those seven words were spoken in a wonderful degree and order according to the seven courses and acts of love; as if they were seven flames from the furnace of her Heart.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Quæ est ista quæ procéssit sicut sol, et formósa tamquam Ierúsalem?

℟. Who is this that cometh up like the sun? This, comely as Jerusalem?

* Vidérunt eam fíliæ Sion, et beátam dixérunt, et regínæ laudavérunt eam.

* The daughters of Zion saw her, and called her blessed: the queens also, and they praised her.

℣. Et sicut dies verni circúmdabant eam flores rosárum et lília convállium.

℣. And about her it was as the flower of roses in the spring of the year, and lilies of the valleys.

℟. Vidérunt eam fíliæ Sion, et beátam dixérunt, et regínæ laudavérunt eam.

℟. The daughters of Zion saw her, and called her blessed the queens also, and they praised her.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

℣. Grant, Lord, a blessing.

Benedictio. Ignem sui amóris accéndat Deus in córdibus nostris.

Benediction. May the Spirit's fire Divine in our hearts enkindled shine.

Cultum litúrgicum, quo Cordi Immaculáto Vírginis Maríæ débitus tribúitur honor, cuíque plures viri sancti ac mulíeres viam parárunt, ipsa Apostólica Sedes primum approbávit ineúnte sǽculo undevicésimo, cum Pius Papa séptimus festum Puríssimi Cordis Maríæ Vírginis instítuit, ab ómnibus diœcésibus et religiósis famíliis, quæ id petiíssent, pie sanctéque agéndum: quod póstmodum Pius Papa nonus Offício ac Missa própria auxit. Ardens autem stúdium atque optátum, iam sǽculo décimo séptimo exórtum et in dies invaléscens, ut nempe eiúsmodi festum, maióri solemnitáte donátum, totíus Ecclésiæ commúne efficerétur, Summus Póntifex Pius duodécimus benígne excípiens anno millésimo nongentésimo quadragésimo secúndo, bello atrocíssimo per orbem fere totum ingravescénte, infínitas populórum ærúmnas míserans, pro sua in Matrem cæléstem pietáte ac fidúcia genus hóminum univérsum illíus Cordi benigníssimo obsecratióne solémni eníxe commendávit, atque in honórem eiúsdem Immaculáti Cordis festum cum Offício et Missa própriis in perpétuum ubíque celebrándum indíxit.

The liturgical worship, through which due honor is given to the Immaculate Heart of the Virgin Mary, and for which many holy men and women have prepared the way, the Apostolic See itself first approved in the beginning of the nineteenth century, when Pope Pius VII instituted the feast of the Most Pure Heart of the Virgin Mary, to be piously and reverently celebrated by all the dioceses and religious families who had asked for it. Afterwards Pope Pius IX added an Office and a proper Mass to it. But an ardent desire and longing, which had arisen in the seventeenth century, grew day by day, that namely, the same Feast, given greater solemnity, might be spread to the entire Church. In 1942, Pope Pius XII, graciously acceding to this wish, and during the terrible war then ravaging almost the entire world, pitying the infinite hardships of men, and because of his devotion and confidence in our heavenly Mother, in solemn supplication earnestly entrusted the entire human race to her most generous Heart, and in honor of the same Immaculate Heart he ordered a Feast to be kept forever with its proper Office and Mass.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

* And when the daughters of Zion saw her, they cried out that she was most blessed, saying thy name is as ointment poured forth.

℣. Astitit regína a dextris tuis in vestítu deauráto, circúmdata varietáte.

℣. Upon thy right hand did stand the Queen in a vesture of gold wrought about with diverse colours.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Ioánnem

From the Holy Gospel according to John

Ioannes 19:25-27

John 19:25-27

In illo témpore: Stabant iuxta crucem Iesu Mater eius, et soror Matris eius María Cléophæ, et María Magdaléne. Et réliqua.

In that time: There stood by the cross of Jesus, his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalen. And so on.

Homilía sancti Robérti Bellarmíno Epíscopi

A Homily by St. Robert Bellarmine, Bishop

De septem verbis Christi in Cruce, cap. 12

On the Seven Words of Christ on the Cross cap. 12

Onus et iugum impósitum a Dómino sancto Ioánni, ut Vírginis Matris curam géreret, vere fuit iugum suáve et onus leve. Quis enim non libentíssime cohabitáret Matri illi, quæ Verbum incarnátum in útero novem ménsibus portávit, et illi totos trigínta annos devotíssime dulcissiméque cohabitávit? Quis non invídeat dilécto Dómini, qui in abséntia Fílii Dei præséntiam obtínuit Matris Dei? Sed, nisi fallor, póssumus et nos a benignitáte Verbi nostri causa incarnáti et ex dilectióne nímia nostri causa crucifíxi, précibus impetráre, ut dicat et nobis: Ecce Mater tua; et Matri suæ de nobis dicat: Ecce fílius tuus.

The burden and yoke which our Lord imposed on St. John, that he take care of his Virgin Mother, was indeed a sweet yoke and a light burden. Who indeed would not esteem it a happiness to dwell under the same roof with her, who for nine months had borne in her womb the Incarnate Word, and for thirty years had enjoyed the sweetest and happiest communication of sentiments with him? Who doth not envy the chosen disciple of our Lord, who in the absence of the Son of God, was given the presence of the Mother of God? yet, if I am not mistaken, we can obtain by our prayers that our most kind Lord, who became man for our sakes and was crucified for love of us, should say to us: Behold thy Mother; and should say to his Mother for each one of us: Behold thy son.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Felix namque es, sacra Virgo María, et omni laude digníssima:

℟. O Holy Virgin Mary, happy indeed art thou, and right worthy of all praise

* Quia ex te ortus est sol iustítiæ, Christus, Deus noster.

* For out of thee rose the Sun of righteousness, even Christ our God.

℣. Ora pro pópulo, intérveni pro clero, intercéde pro devóto femíneo sexu: séntiant omnes tuum iuvámen, quicúmque célebrant tuam sanctam festivitátem.

℣. Pray for the people, plead for the clergy, make intercession for all women vowed to God. May all that are keeping this thine holy Feast day feel the might of thine assistance.

℟. Quia ex te ortus est sol iustítiæ, Christus, Deus noster.

℟. For out of thee rose the Sun of righteousness, even Christ our God.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.

℣. Grant, Lord, a blessing.

Benedictio. Cuius festum cólimus, ipsa Virgo vírginum intercédat pro nobis ad Dóminum.

Benediction. She whose feast-day we are keeping, Mary, blessed Maid of Maidens, be our Advocate with God.

℟. Amen.

℟. Amen.

Non est avárus pius Dóminus gratiárum, dúmmodo ad thronum grátiæ eius cum fide et fidúcia et non ficto corde, sed vero et sincéro accedámus. Qui nos coherédes esse vóluit regni Patris sui, non dedignábitur certe nos coherédes habére amóris Matris suæ. Sed nec ipsa Virgo benigníssima gravábitur multitúdine filiórum, cum sinum amplíssimum hábeat et valde cúpiat, nullum períre ex his, quos Fílius suus tam pretióso sánguine et tam pretiósa morte redémit. Adeámus ergo cum fidúcia ad thronum grátiæ Christi, et supplíciter nec sine lácrimis ab eo petámus, ut de unoquóque nostrum Matri suæ dicat: Ecce fílius tuus; et unicuíque nostrum de Matre sua dicat: Ecce Mater tua.

Our good Lord is not avaricious of his graces, if only we approach the throne of grace with faith and confidence, with a true and sincere but not a false heart. He who desireth to have us co-heirs in the kingdom of his Father, will certainly not disdain to have us co-heirs in the love of his Mother. Nor will the most benign Virgin herself take it amiss to have a countless number of children, since she hath an heart capable of embracing all of us, and ardently desireth that not even one of those souls should perish whom her divine Son redeemed with his precious Blood, and his still more precious death. And so let us approach with confidence the throne of the grace of Christ, and with tears let us humbly beg of him to say to his Mother for each of us: Behold thy son; and to each one of us concerning his Mother: Behold thy Mother.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Beátam me dicent omnes generatiónes,

℟. All generations shall call me blessed.

* Quia fecit mihi Dóminus magna qui potens est, et sanctum nomen eius.

* For He that is mighty, even the Lord, hath done to me great things; and Holy is His Name.

℣. Et misericórdia eius a progénie in progénies timéntibus eum.

℣. And his mercy is on them that fear Him, from generation to generation.

℟. Quia fecit mihi Dóminus magna qui potens est, et sanctum nomen eius.

℟. He that is mighty, even the Lord, hath done to me great things; and Holy is His Name.

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

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

℟. Quia fecit mihi Dóminus magna qui potens est, et sanctum nomen eius.

Quam bene nobis erit sub præsídio tantæ Matris? Quis nos detráhere audébit de sinu eius? Quæ nos tentátio superáre póterit, confidéntes in patrocínio Matris Dei et nostræ? neque nos primi érimus in tanti consecutióne benefícii. Multi nos præcessérunt; multi, inquam, ad singuláre et plane matérnum patrocínium tantæ Vírginis accessérunt, et nemo confúsus aut tristis dimíssus est, sed omnes hílares et gaudéntes, freti patrocínio tantæ Matris. De qua enim scriptum est: Ipsa cónteret caput tuum, in ea confídunt, se quoque fidénter ambulatúros super áspidem et basilíscum, et conculcatúros leónem et dracónem. Neque enim vidétur posse períre is, de quo dictum sit Vírgini a Christo: Ecce fílius tuus, dúmmodo et ipse non surda aure áudiat, quod ei Christus díxerit: Ecce Mater tua.

How secure shall we be under the protection of such a Mother? Who will dare to drag us from her bosom? What temptation can overcome us if we confide in the protection of the Mother of God and of our Mother? Nor will we be the first who have secured such a great favour. Many have preceded us; many, I say, have placed themselves under the singular and really maternal protection of so powerful a Virgin, and no one hath been cast off by her with his soul in a perplexed and sad state, but all who confide in the patronage of such a Mother are happy and contented. For of her it is written: She shall crush thy head, and so those who trust in her shall tread safely upon the lion and adder, the young lion and the dragon shall they tread under their feet. Nor doth it seem that he can perish, of whom Christ said to the Virgin: Behold thy son, provided he is not deaf to the words of Christ: Behold thy Mother.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. O Lord, Father and God of my life, leave me not to evil counsels; give me not a proud look, but turn away from me an haughty mind, O Lord turn away from me concupiscence,

Sap 15:4-6

Wis 15:4-6

4 Non enim in errórem indúxit nos hóminum malæ artis excogitátio, nec umbra pictúræ labor sine fructu, effígies sculpta per vários colóres,

4 For the invention of mischievous men hath not deceived us, nor the shadow of a picture, a fruitless labour, a graven figure with diverse colours,

5 Cuius aspéctus insensáto dat concupiscéntiam, et díligit mórtuæ imáginis effígiem sine ánima.

5 The sight whereof enticeth the fool to lust after it, and he loveth the lifeless figure of a dead image.

6 Malórum amatóres digni sunt qui spem hábeant in tálibus, et qui fáciunt illos et qui díligunt, et qui colunt.

6 The lovers of evil things deserve to have no better things to trust in, both they that make them, and they that love them, and they that worship them.

7 Sed et fígulus mollem terram premens laborióse fingit ad usus nostros unumquódque vas; et de eódem luto fingit, quæ munda sunt in usum vasa, et simíliter quæ his sunt contrária; horum autem vasórum quis sit usus iudex est fígulus.

7 The potter also tempering soft earth, with labour fashioneth every vessel for our service, and of the same clay he maketh both vessels that are for clean uses, and likewise such as serve to the contrary: but what is the use of these vessels, the potter is the judge.

8 Et cum labóre vano deum fingit de eódem luto ille, qui paulo ante de terra factus fúerat, et post pusíllum redúcit se unde accéptus est, repetítus ánimæ débitum quam habébat.

8 And of the same clay by a vain labour he maketh a god: he who a little before was made of earth himself, and a little after returneth to the same out of which he was taken, when his life which was lent him shall be called for again.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

Sui Ordinis Generális invítus renuntiátus, divínæ caritátis ardóre veheménter accénsus, plúrimas Itáliæ urbes concúrsans, gliscéntes in eis cívium discórdias compósuit, multásque ad Románi Pontíficis obediéntiam revocávit, et perditíssimos hómines ad pœniténtiam perdúxit. Dénique Tudérti, anno millésimo ducentésimo octogésimo quinto, in Christi Dómini e cruce pendéntis ampléxu, quem suum appellábat librum, sanctíssime ex hac vita migrávit. Eum Clemens décimus, Póntifex máximus, Sanctórum número adscrípsit.

From the noble family of the Benizi, Philip was called by the most Blessed Virgin, in an extraordinary vision, to enter the recently established Order of her Servants. First he withdrew to a cave on Monte Senario, where he led a life made hard by continual castigation of the body, but sweetened by meditation on the sufferings of Christ the Lord. Then he established sodalities of the Seven Sorrows of the Mother of God throughout almost all Europe and a great part of Asia. He was named General of his Order against his will and, burning eagerly with the ardor of divine love, he traveled about through many of the cities of Italy, settling the disputes which flared up among the citizens, calling back many men to the obedience of the Roman Pontiff and leading even the most abandoned men to repentance. Finally at Todi in the year 1285, embracing the image of Christ the Lord hanging on the Cross, which he used to call his 'book', he died a most holy death. Pope Clement X added him to the number of Saints.

Sancti Bartholomǽi Apóstoli, qui Christi Evangélium in India prædicávit; inde in maiórem Arméniam proféctus, ibi, cum plúrimos ad fidem convertísset, vivus a bárbaris decoriátus est, atque, Astýagis Regis iussu, cápitis decollatióne martýrium complévit. Ipsíus sacrum corpus, primo ad Líparam ínsulam, deínde Benevéntum, postrémo Romam ad Tiberínam translátim ínsulam, ibi pia fidélium veneratióne honorátur.

The holy Apostle Bartholomew. He preached the Gospel of Christ in India, whence he went into the greater Armenia, where, when he had turned many to the faith, he was flayed alive by the barbarians, and beheaded by order of King Astyages, [about the year of our Lord 71,] and so finished his testimony. His sacred body was first taken to the island of Lipari, then to Benevento, and lastly to Rome, to the island in the Tiber, where it is devoutly reverenced by the veneration of the faithful.

Lima, in Perúvia, natális sanctæ Rosæ a sancta María, Vírginis, e tértio Ordine sancti Domínici. Eius vero festívitas tértio Kaléndas Septémbris celebrátur.

At Carthage, three hundred holy martyrs, in the time of the Emperors Valerian and Gallienus, among other torments applied to them the President caused a limekiln to be lighted, and producing some hot embers and incense said to them, now choose one of two things, either offer this incense to Jupiter upon these coals, or be thrown into that lime. Then they, being armed with faith, and confessing that Christ is the Son of God, threw themselves in a twinkling into the kiln, where they were burnt to powder among the lime, whence this white-robed army of the blessed has gained the name of the White Lump.

Népete sancti Ptolomǽi Epíscopi, qui fuit discípulus beáti Petri Apóstoli; atque, ab eo missus in Túsciam ad prædicándum Evangélium, in eádem civitáte gloriósus Christi Martyr occúbuit.

At Nepi, [in the first century,] the holy Bishop Ptolemy, a disciple of the blessed Apostle Peter, by whom he was sent into Tuscany to preach the Gospel, and in that city fell a glorious martyr of Christ and in the same place holy Romanus, Bishop of the same city, who, as he had been the disciple of holy Ptolemy was also his comrade in his last testimony and sufferings.

Eódem die sancti Eutýchii, qui fuit discípulus beáti Ioánnis Evangelístæ; atque, ob Evangélii prædicatiónem in multis regiónibus cárceres, vérbera et ignes perpéssus, in pace tandem quiévit.

In Isauria, [about the year 304,] the holy martyr Tation, who was slain with the sword under President Urban, in the persecution under the Emperor Diocletian, and so received the crown of martyrdom.

Carthágine sanctórum trecentórum Mártyrum, témpore Valeriáni et Galliéni. Hi Mártyres magnánimi, inter ália supplícia, cum Præses fornácem calcáriam accéndi iussísset, et, in præséntia eius, prunas cum thure exhibéri, atque illis dixísset: «Elígite e duóbus unum, aut thura super his carbónibus offérte Iovi, aut in calcem demergímini», fide armáti, Christum Dei Fílium confiténtes, ictu rapidíssimo se iniecérunt in ignem, et inter calcis vapóres in púlverem sunt redácti; ex quo candidátus ille beatórum exércitus appellári Massa cándida méruit.

On the same day, [at the end of the first or beginning of the second century,] holy Eutychius, a disciple of the blessed Evangelist John. For preaching the Gospel he suffered in many countries imprisonment, stripes, and fire but at length fell asleep in peace.

In Isáuria sancti Tatiónis Mártyris, qui in persecutióne Diocletiáni, sub Urbáno Prǽside, gládio cæsus, martýrii corónam accépit.

Also, [in the eighth century,] the holy monk George, surnamed Limniotes. He rebuked the wicked Emperor Leo for breaking the holy images and burning the relics of the Saints, whereupon the Emperor commanded his hands to be cut off, and his head to be set on fire, and so as a martyr he passed away to be ever with the Lord.

Item sancti Geórgii Limniótæ Mónachi, qui, cum ímpium Leónem Imperatórem, quod sacras Imágines frángeret Sanctorúmque relíquias combúreret, reprehendísset, hanc ob causam, eius iussu mánibus abscíssis et cápite incénso, Martyr migrávit ad Dóminum.

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.

Octávo Kaléndas Septémbris Luna séptima Anno Dómini 2031

August 25th 2031, the 7th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:

Apud Cartháginem sancti Ludovíci Noni, Regis Francórum et Confessóris, vitæ sanctitáte ac miraculórum glória præclári, cuius ossa póstmodum Lutétiam Parisiórum sunt reláta.

At Paris, [in the year 1270,] the holy Confessor Louis, King of France, famous for the holiness of his life and for the glory of his miracles.

Romæ natális sancti Ioséphi Calasánctii, Presbýteri et Confessóris, vitæ innocéntia et miráculis illústris; qui, ad erudiéndam pietáte ac lítteris iuventútem, Ordinem Clericórum Regulárium Páuperum Matris Dei Scholárum Piárum fundávit. Eum Pius Duodécimus, Póntifex Máximus, ómnium Scholárum populárium christianárum ubíque exsisténtium cæléstem apud Deum Patrónum constítuit. Ipsíus tamen festívitas sexto Kaléndas Septémbris recólitur.

At Rome, [in the second century,] the holy martyrs Eusebius, Pontian, Vincent, and Peregrin. Under the Emperor Commodus they were first racked, then stretched with thongs, and afterwards cudgelled, their sides were burnt, and as they remained faithful in the praise of Christ they were hided to death with scourges loaded with lead.

Item Romæ sanctórum Mártyrum Eusébii, Pontiáni, Vincéntii et Peregríni; qui, sub Cómmodo Imperatóre, primum in equúleo leváti, nervis quoque disténti, ac deínde fústibus cæsi sunt, flammis circa eórum látera appósitis; et, cum in laude Christi fidelíssime permanérent, plumbátis usque ad emissiónem spíritus sunt mactáti.

Likewise at Rome, [in the year 286 or in 303,] the holy martyr Genesius while he was a Gentile he was a player. One while in the theatre, in the presence of the Emperor Diocletian, he was making a mock at the mysteries of the Christians, when the spirit of God came upon him, and he was suddenly turned to the faith, and baptized. The Emperor caused him to be very cruelly beaten with cudgels, then racked, and tormented for a long time by being torn with hooks, and burned with lamps. He stood firm in Christ's faith, saying: there is no King but Christ, and if I should be slain for Him a thousand times, ye cannot take Him either out of my mouth or out of my heart. In the end he was beheaded, and so gained the palm of martyrdom.

Romæ prætérea natális beáti Nemésii Diáconi, et fíliæ Lucíllæ Vírginis; qui, cum de fide Christi flecti nequáquam possent, decolláti sunt, iubénte Valeriáno Imperatóre. Ipsórum córpora, a beáto Stéphano Papa sepúlta, deínde a beáto Xysto Secúndo via Appia, prídie Kaléndas Novémbris, honéstius tumuláta, Gregórius Quintus in Diaconíam sanctæ Maríæ Novæ tránstulit, una cum sanctis Symphrónio, Olýmpio Tribúno, huiúsque uxóre Exsupéria et Theodúlo fílio; qui omnes, Symphrónii ópera convérsi et ab eódem sancto Stéphano baptizáti, martýrio coronáti fúerant. Eadem Sanctórum córpora, Gregório Décimo tértio Summo Pontífice, ibídem invénta, sub altári eiúsdem Ecclésiæ honorificéntius collocáta sunt sexto Idus Decémbris.

At Old Seville, in Spain, [in the first century,] holy Gerontius, Bishop [of that see,] who preached the Gospel in that province in the time of the Apostles, and after many toils fell asleep in prison.

Item Romæ sancti Genésii Mártyris, qui, primum sub Gentilitáte mimus, cum in theátro, spectánte Diocletiáno Imperatóre, Mystériis Christianórum illudéret, repénte, inspirátus a Deo, convérsus est ad fidem et baptizátus. Mox, Imperatóris iussu, fústibus crudelíssime cæsus, deínde suspénsus in equúleo, et ungulárum diutíssima laceratióne vexátus, lampádibus étiam adústus est; ac tandem, cum in fide Christi persísteret, dicens: «Non est Rex præter Christum, pro quo si míllies occídar, ipsum mihi de ore, ipsum mihi de corde auférre non potéritis», martýrii palmam obtruncatióne cápitis proméruit.

At Arles, in Gaul, [in the year 303,] blessed Genesius. He was a registrar who refused to register the wicked edicts which commanded the punishment of Christians, but publicly cast away his tables and professed himself a Christian; for this cause he was taken and beheaded, and being so baptized in his own blood, gained the glory of martyrdom.

Areláte, in Gállia, beáti item Genésii, qui, cum ímpia edícta, quibus Christiáni puniri iubebántur, exceptóris offício fungens, nollet excípere, et, proiéctis in públicum tábulis, se Christiánum esse testarétur, comprehénsus et decollátus est, atque ita martýrii glóriam, próprio cruóre baptizátus, accépit.

In Syria, the holy martyr Julian.

In Sýria sancti Iuliáni Mártyris.

13:1 They are corrupt, and are become abominable in their ways: * there is none that doth good, no not one.

13:3 They are all gone aside, they are become unprofitable together: * there is none that doth good: no not one.

13:3 Their throat is an open sepulchre; † with their tongues they acted deceitfully: * the poison of asps is under their lips.

13:3 Their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness; * their feet are swift to shed blood.

Ludovícus nonus, Gálliæ rex, in Blanchæ matris sanctíssima disciplína educátus, pro recuperánda possessióne Ierosolymórum mare cum ingénti exércitu traíciens, primo prǽlio Saracénos fugávit. Sed cum magna mílitum multitúdo ex pestiléntia perísset, victus ipse captúsque est. Rebus compósitis, liber dimíttitur. Plúrimos in Oriénte Christiános a barbarórum servitúte redémit, multos étiam infidéles ad Christi fidem convértit. In Gálliam revérsus, multa ædificávit monastéria et páuperum hospítia; beneficéntia egéntes sublevábat, frequens visébat ægrótos, eísque ministrábat; vestítu vulgári utebátur, cilício ac ieiúnio corpus assídue affligébat. Cum íterum transmisísset, bellum Saracénis illatúrus, iamque castra in eórum conspéctu posuísset, pestiléntia decéssit in illa oratióne: Introíbo in domum tuam, adorábo ad templum sanctum tuum, et confitébor nómini tuo.

Louis IX, King of France, was brought up under the most holy care of his mother Blanche. To regain possession of Jerusalem, he crossed the sea with a great army and put the Saracens to flight in the first battle. But, when a great many of his soldiers had perished in the plague, he was defeated and taken captive. Upon conclusion of a treaty, he was set free. He redeemed many Christians in the East from enslavement to the barbarians, and also converted many infidels to the faith of Christ. Returning to France, he built many monasteries and hospitals for the poor. He helped the needy by his beneficence, and he often visited the sick and served them himself. He wore plain clothing and constantly afflicted his body by wearing a hair shirt and by fasting. When he had crossed the sea again to make war against the Saracens and had pitched camp within sight of them, he died of the plague, saying this prayer: I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy Name.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

Ioséphus Calasánctius, Petráltæ in Aragónia natus, adhuc párvulus æquáles ad se convocátos mystériis fídei et sacris précibus erudiébat. Sacérdos ex voto factus, summa vitæ asperitáte, vigíliis et ieiúniis corpus afflígens, in oratióne et rerum cæléstium contemplatióne dies noctésque versabátur. Cum divínitus accepísset, se ad informándos intellegéntiæ ac pietátis spíritu adolescéntes præcípue páuperes, destinári; órdinem Clericórum regulárium páuperum Matris Dei scholárum piárum fundávit, qui peculiárem curam de púeris erudiéndis ex próprio institúto profiteréntur. Innúmeris proptérea labóribus atque ærúmnis invícto ánimo tolerátis, secúndum et nonagésimum annum agens, óbiit in Dómino, octávo kaléndas septémbris, anno millésimo sexcentésimo quadragésimo octávo.

Joseph Calasanctius was born at Petralta in Aragon. While he was still a child he used to call his companions together and teach them the mysteries of the faith and prayers. He became a Priest because of a vow, and led a life of great austerity, chastising his body with vigils and fasting, and spending day and night in prayer and the contemplation of heavenly things. When he had received from God the commission to devote himself to forming boys, especially poor boys, in the knowledge and love of God, he founded the Order of the Poor Regular Clerks of the Pious Schools of the Mother of God, who took as their special work the task of teaching boys. Because of this work, he underwent innumerable labours and hardships with an invincible spirit, and in his ninety-second year he fell asleep in the Lord, on the 25th of August, 1648.

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

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

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.

Augustínus, Tagáste in Africa honéstis paréntibus natus, brevi æquálibus ómnibus doctrína prǽstitit. Adoléscens, dum esset Carthágine, in Manichæórum hǽresim íncidit. Póstea Romam proféctus, inde Mediolánum missus ut rhetóricam docéret, cum ibi, suadénte Mónica, pientíssima eius matre, frequens Ambrósii epíscopi esset audítor, eius ópera incénsus stúdio cathólicæ fídei, annos natus trigínta tres ab ipso baptizátur. Revérsus in Africam, cum religióne vitæ sanctimóniam coniúngens, a Valério, notæ sanctitátis epíscopo Hipponénsi, présbyter factus est. Quo témpore famíliam instítuit religiosórum, quibúscum victu commúni eodémque cultu utens, eos ad apostólicæ vitæ doctrinǽque disciplínam diligentíssime erudiébat. Hac Augustíni pietáte commótus Valérius, eum adiutórem adhíbuit episcopális offícii. Multa pie, subtíliter et copióse scripsit, ut hǽreses profligáret et christiánam doctrínam illustráret. Wándalis Africam bello vastántibus et Hippónem tértio iam mense obsidéntibus, febri corréptus, migrávit ad Dóminum, ætátis suæ anno septuagésimo sexto. Eius corpus, primo in Sardíniam, deínde Ticínum translátum, ibi honorífice cólitur.

Augustine was born of good parents at Tagaste in Africa, and in a short time surpassed all his companions in learning. As a young man, when in Carthage, he fell into the Manichean heresy. Later he went to Rome and was sent from there to Milan to teach rhetoric. At Milan, he was persuaded by Monica, his most devout mother, to become a frequent listener to the Bishop Ambrose. Ambrose brought it about that Augustine was fired with a desire for the Catholic faith, and baptized him when he was thirty-three years old. Going back to Africa, Augustine led a life governed by religion and holiness, and was made priest by Valerius, Bishop of Hippo, renowned for his sanctity. At this same period, he founded a religious community with whom he lived, taking part in their life and worship while he trained them very carefully to the apostolic life and to learning. Moved by his devotion, Valerius made him his coadjutor bishop. He wrote many works remarkable for their devotion, subtlety and diffuseness, to combat heresies and throw light on Christian teaching. When the Vandals were laying Africa waste and Hippo had been besieged for three months, he was taken with a fever and went to the Lord in the seventy-sixth year of his age. His body was buried first in Sardinia and then in Pavia, where it is venerated with honour.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

77:32 In all these things they sinned still: * and they believed not for his wondrous works.

77:33 Et defecérunt in vanitáte dies eórum: * et anni eórum cum festinatióne.

77:33 And their days were consumed in vanity, * and their years in haste.

77:34 Cum occíderet eos, quærébant eum: * et revertebántur, et dilúculo veniébant ad eum.

77:34 When he slew them, then they sought him: * and they returned, and came to him early in the morning.

77:37 Cor autem eórum non erat rectum cum eo: * nec fidéles hábiti sunt in testaménto eius.

77:37 But their heart was not right with him: * nor were they counted faithful in his covenant.

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

77:38 But he is merciful, and will forgive their sins: * and will not destroy them.

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?

77:40 How often did they provoke him in the desert: * and move him to wrath in the place without water?

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 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.

Ex libro sancti Ambrósii Epíscopi de Virgínibus

From the Treatise concerning Virgins, by St. Ambrose the Bishop

Quóniam beáti Ioánnis Baptístæ non strictim prætereúnda est recordátio, ínterest ut quis et a quibus et quam ob causam, quo modo et quo témpore sit occísus, advértere debeámus. Ab adúlteris iustus occíditur, et a reis in iúdicem capitális scéleris pœna convértitur. Deínde prǽmium saltatrícis, mors est Prophétæ. Postrémo (quod étiam omnes bárbari horrére consuevérunt) inter épulas atque convívia consummándæ crudelitátis profértur edíctum; et a convívio ad cárcerem, de cárcere ad convívium ferális flagítii circumfértur obséquium. Quanta in uno facínore sunt crímina!

We must not hurry past the record of blessed Baptist John. We must ask what he was; by whom he was slain; and why and how. He was a righteous man, murdered for his righteousness by adulterers. He was a judge, who suffered condemnation to death by the guilty ones because he had justly judged their guilt. He was the prophet whose death was a fee paid to a dancing-girl for a lascivious dance. And lastly a thing from which even savages would shrink his head was served up as a dish at a banquet. For the order to commit the atrocity was given amid the merriment of a dinner-party; and the servants of the murderer introduced the murder amid the courses of the meal, running from banquet to prison, and from prison to banquet! See how many infamies are contained in this one crime.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.

After being racked he was sentenced to be beheaded as he was being led to execution he was met by some man who of his own accord professed himself a Christian, and was accordingly forthwith beheaded along with him.

Primus Américæ Meridionális flos sanctitátis, virgo Rosa, christiánis paréntibus Limæ progénita, mox ab incunábulis cláruit futúræ sanctimóniæ indíciis; nam vultus infántis, mirabíliter in rosæ effígiem transfigurátus, huic nómini occasiónem dedit. Ne a paréntibus ad núptias cogerétur, clam síbimet venustíssimam comam præcídit. Singuláris fuit eius vitæ austéritas. Assúmpto hábitu tértii órdinis sancti Domínici, sanctæ Catharínæ Senénsis árdua pressit vestígia. Per quíndecim annos, ad plúsculas horas desolatióne spíritus et ariditáte misérrime contabéscens, fórtiter tulit agónes omni morte amarióres. Angelo tutelári, sanctæ Catharínæ Senénsi, Vírgini Deíparæ inter assíduas apparitiónes mire familiáris, a Christo has voces audíre méruit: Rosa cordis mei, tu mihi sponsa esto. Plúribus ante et post mortem miráculis claram, Clemens Papa décimus eam sanctárum Vírginum catálogo adscrípsit.

The first flower of holiness in South America was the maiden Rose. She was born of Christian parents at Lima and in her cradle early gave signs of her future sanctity, for the child's face was wonderfully transformed into the likeness of a rose, and this gave her her name. Lest she be compelled by her parents to marry, she secretly cut off her lovely hair. The austerity of her life was most singular. She took the habit of the Third Order of St. Dominic and followed the difficult path of St. Catherine of Siena. For fifteen years, she would suffer terribly for hours at a time from desolation of spirit and from aridity, and bravely bore agonies more bitter than any death. Through frequent apparitions, she enjoyed a wonderful companionship with her Guardian Angel, St. Catherine of Siena, and the Virgin Mother of God, and she was privileged to hear Christ say these words, Rose of my Heart, be thou my bride. Famous for many miracles both before and after her death, she was enrolled in the list of holy Virgins by Pope Clement X.

℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

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

Sir 5:6-11

Sir 5:6-11

6 Et ne dicas: Miserátio Dómini magna est, multitúdinis peccatórum meórum miserébitur;

6 And say not: The mercy of the Lord is great, he will have mercy on the multitude of my sins.

7 Misericórdia enim et ira ab illo cito próximant, et in peccatóres réspicit ira illíus.

7 For mercy and wrath quickly come from him, and his wrath looketh upon sinners.

8 Non tardes convérti ad Dóminum et ne dífferas de die in diem;

8 Delay not to be converted to the Lord, and defer it not from day to day.

9 Súbito enim véniet ira illíus et in témpore vindíctæ dispérdet te.

9 For his wrath shall come on a sudden, and in the time of vengeance he will destroy thee.

10 Noli ánxius esse in divítiis iniústis; non enim próderunt tibi in die obductiónis et vindíctæ.

10 Be not anxious for goods unjustly gotten: for they shall not profit thee in the day of calamity and revenge.

11 Non véntiles te in omnem ventum et non eas in omnem viam; sic enim omnis peccátor probátur in dúplici lingua.

11 Winnow not with every wind, and go not into every way: for so is every sinner proved by a double tongue.

12 Be steadfast in the way of the Lord, and in the truth of thy judgment, and in knowledge, and let the word of peace and justice keep with thee.

13 Esto mansuétus ad audiéndum verbum, ut intéllegas, et cum sapiéntia próferas respónsum verum.

13 Be meek to hear the word, that thou mayst understand: and return a true answer with wisdom.

14 Si est tibi intelléctus, respónde próximo; sin autem, sit manus tua super os tuum, ne capiáris in verbo indisciplináto et confundáris.

14 If thou have understanding, answer thy neighbour: but if not, let thy hand be upon thy mouth, lest thou be surprised in an unskillful word, and be confounded.

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.

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

℟. Deo grátias.

℟. Thanks be to God.
