Hymnus
Rerum, Deus, tenax vigor, immótus in te pérmanens, lucis diúrnæ témpora succéssibus detérminans,
O strength, and stay upholding all creation Who ever dost Thyself unmoved abide, Yet day by day the light in due gradation From hour to hour through all its changes guide;
Largíre clarum véspere, quo vita numquam décidat, sed prǽmium mortis sacræ perénnis instet glória.
Grant to life’s day a calm unclouded ending, An eve untouched by shadows of decay, The brightness of a holy deathbed blending With dawning glories of th’ eternal day.
Præsta, Pater piíssime, Patríque compar Unice, cum Spíritu Paráclito regnans per omne sǽculum. Amen.
Almighty Father, hear our cry, Through Jesus Christ, our Lord most High, Who, with the Holy Ghost and Thee, Doth live and reign eternally.
Ant. Exsúrge, Dómine, éripe ánimam meam.
Ant. Arise, O Lord, and deliver my soul.

Lord, hearken justice, hearken unto my cry;
Auribus pércipe oratiónem meam, * non in lábiis dolósis.

Inimíci mei in furóre circumdedérunt me, †ádipem suum conclusérunt; *os eórum locútum est supérbiam.
Mortal enemies surround me. They close their bowels to pity, they have haughty words on their lips.
Incedéntes nunc circumdedérunt me, *óculos suos statuérunt prostérnere in terram.
They are on our steps, they surround us, they spy on us to knock us unto the ground.
Aspéctus eórum quasi leónis paráti ad prædam *et sicut cátuli leónis recubántis in ábditis.
They resemble the lion eager to devour, the lion cub camped in its thicket.
Exsúrge, Dómine, præveni eum, supplánta eum; *éripe ánimam meam ab ímpio frámea tua,

a mórtuis manu tua, Dómine, *a mórtuis, quorum defécit pórtio vitæ.
men by Thy hand, those men of the world whose part is in the present life,
De recónditis tuis adímpleas ventrem eórum, *saturéntur fílii et dimíttant relíquias párvulis suis.

Lectio brevis (Iob 5, 17-18)
Beátus homo, qui corrípitur a Deo; increpatiónem ergo Omnipoténtis ne réprobes. Quia ipse vúlnerat et medétur, pércutit, et manus eius sanábunt.
Blessed is the mall whom God correcteth: refuse not therefore the chastising of the lord: For he woundeth, and cureth: he striketh, and his hands shall heal.
v. Fac cum servo tuo secúndum misericórdiam tuam, Dómine. r. Iustificatiónes tuas doce me.
Orémus.
Postea dicitur immediate et sine orémus oratio propria, cum conclusione longiore.
After this the proper prayer is said straightway and without "Let us pray", with the long conclusion.
Deus, qui sánguinem mártyrum semen christianórum esse fecísti, † concéde propítius, ut tuæ ager Ecclésiæ, beatórum Cároli eiúsque sociórum cruóre rigátus, * in amplam tibi messem iúgiter fecundétur. Per Dóminum.
God, who has made the blood of the martyrs a seed of Christians, grant us, in Thy goodness, that the field of Thy Church, watered by the blood of the blessed Charles and his companions, may be made fruitful for Thy harvest.
Dóminus vobíscum.
The Lord be with thee.
r. Et cum spíritu tuo.
r. And with thy spirit.
Benedícat vos omnípotens Deus, Pater, ✠ et Fílius, et Spíritus Sanctus.
May God Almighty bless thee, the Father, ✠ and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
r. Amen.
r. Amen.
Vel alia formula benedictionis, sicut in Missa.
Or another formula of blessing, as at Mass.
Et si fit dimissio, sequitur invitatio:
And if we make a referral, we add the invitation:
Absente sacerdote vel diacono, et in recitatione a solo, sic concluditur:
In the absence of a deacon or a priest, and in the recitation alone, it is concluded thus:
Dóminus nos benedícat, et ab omni malo deféndat, et ad vitam perdúcat ætérnam. r. Amen.
May the Lord bless us, forbid us from all evil, and bring us to eternal life. r. Amen.
