Hymnus
Doctor insígnis, veneránde præsul, te sacerdótum populíque turba corde prostráto vigilíque poscit cármine patrem.
Vota cunctórum rélevans in aula regis ætérni, fóveas utrúmque órdinem, cuius pius exstitísti pastor in Urbe.
Móribus sanctis decoráre vitam confer, et puram placidámque mentem; corda virtútum mediténtur arma múnere Christi.
Impetra nobis, quóties rogáris, grátiæ, pastor, stúdium supérnæ; crédimus magnum, Dómino faténte, te dare munus.
Laus, honor Patri parilíque Proli, una maiéstas, éadem potéstas, cum quibus Sanctus simul implet omnem Spíritus orbem.

Deus, áuribus nostris audívimus; † patres nostri annuntiavérunt nobis * opus, quod operátus es in diébus eórum, in diébus antíquis.
O God, we have heard with our ears; our fathers have told us of the work that Thou hast done in their days, and in the days of old.
Tu manu tua gentes depulísti et plantásti illos, * afflixísti pópulos et dilatásti eos.
Thy hand has destroyed the nations, and thou hast set them in their place; Thou hast afflicted the peoples, and Thou hast driven them out.
Nec enim in gládio suo possedérunt terram, * et bráchium eórum non salvávit eos;
For it was not with their sword that they conquered this land, nor did their arm save them,
sed déxtera tua et bráchium tuum et illuminátio vultus tui, * quóniam complacuísti in eis.
but it is Thy right hand and Thy arm, and the light of Thy face, forasmuch as Thou lovedst them.
Tu es rex meus et Deus meus, * qui mandas salútes Iacob.
Thou art my king and my God, thou who command the salvation of Jacob.
In te inimícos nostros proiécimus * et in nómine tuo conculcávimus insurgéntes in nos.
Through Thou we will overthrow our enemies, and in Thy Name we will despise those who rise up against us.
Non enim in arcu meo sperábo, * et gládius meus non salvábit me.
For it is not in my bow that I will trust, * nor will my sword save me.
Tu autem salvásti nos de affligéntibus nos * et odiéntes nos confudísti.
But it is Thou who have saved us from those who afflicted us, and who have confounded those who hated us.
In Deo gloriábimur tota die * et in nómine tuo confitébimur in sæculum.
In God we will glory all day long, and we will praise Thy Name forevermore.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

Nunc autem reppulísti et confudísti nos * et non egrediéris, Deus, cum virtútibus nostris.
But now Thou've turned us away and put us to shame, and Thou don't go out with our armies anymore, God.
Convertísti nos retrórsum coram inimícis nostris, * et, qui odérunt nos, diripuérunt sibi.
Thou madest us turn our backs on our enemies, and those who hated us plundered us.
Dedísti nos tamquam oves ad vescéndum * et in géntibus dispersísti nos.
Thou hast given us up as sheep for slaughter, and thou hast scattered us amongst the nations.
Vendidísti pópulum tuum sine lucro, * nec dítior factus es in commutatióne eórum.
Thou sold thy people at a low price, and there was no crowd in the purchase that was made of them.
Posuísti nos oppróbrium vicínis nostris, * subsannatiónem et derísum his, qui sunt in circúitu nostro.
Thou hast repaid us the reproach of our neighbors, and an object of insult and mockery to those around us.
Posuísti nos similitúdinem in géntibus, * commotiónem cápitis in pópulis.
Thou hast given us back the fable of the nations; the people shake their heads about us.
Tota die verecúndia mea contra me est, * et confúsio faciéi meæ coopéruit me,
All day long my shame is before my eyes, and the confusion of my face covers me entirely,
a voce exprobrántis et obloquéntis, * a fácie inimíci et ultóris.
at the voice of him who reviles and reviles me, in the sight of the enemy and the persecutor.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

Hæc ómnia venérunt super nos,† nec oblíti sumus te; * et iníque non égimus in testaméntum tuum.
All these evils have come upon us; and yet we have not forgotten Thou, nor have we acted unjustly against Thy covenant.
Et non recéssit retro cor nostrum, * nec declinavérunt gressus nostri a via tua;
And our hearts have not withdrawn backwards; and Thou hast turned our steps away from Thy way.
sed humiliásti nos in loco vúlpium * et operuísti nos umbra mortis.
For Thou hast humbled us in a place of affliction, and the shadow of death has covered us.
Si oblíti fuérimus nomen Dei nostri * et si expandérimus manus nostras ad deum aliénum,
If we have forgotten the name of our God, and stretched out our hands to a foreign god,
nonne Deus requíret ista? * Ipse enim novit abscóndita cordis.
Won't God ask for an account of it anon? For He knoweth the secrets of the heart.
Quóniam propter te mortificámur tota die, * æstimáti sumus sicut oves occisiónis.
For it is for thy sake that we are daily given up to death, and that we are looked upon as sheep for slaughter.
Evígila, quare obdórmis, Dómine? * Exsúrge et ne repéllas in finem.
Arise; wherefore do Thou sleep, Lord? Arise, and do not put us away forevermore.
Quare fáciem tuam avértis, * oblivísceris inópiæ nostræ et tribulatiónis nostræ?
Wherefore do Thou turn away Thy face? Wherefore do Thou forget our misery and tribulation?
Quóniam humiliáta est in púlvere ánima nostra, * conglutinátus est in terra venter noster.
For our soul is humbled in the dust, and our bosom is as it were clinging unto the earth.
Exsúrge, Dómine, ádiuva nos * et rédime nos propter misericórdiam tuam.
Arise, Lord; help us, and redeem us by Thy mercy.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

De libro Sirácidæ
Qui accómodat ánimam suam ad timórem Dei et in lege Altíssimi meditátur, sapiéntiam ómnium antiquórum exquíret et in prophetíis vacábit. Narratiónem virórum nominatórum conservábit et in versútias parabolárum simul introíbit. Occúlta proverbiórum exquíret et in abscónditis parabolárum conversábitur.
In médio magnatórum ministrábit et in conspéctu príncipum apparébit. In terram alienigenárum géntium pertránsiet; bona enim et mala in homínibus tentábit. Cor suum tradet ad vigilándum dilúculo ad Dóminum, qui fecit illum, et in conspéctu Altíssimi deprecábitur. Apériet os suum in oratióne et pro delíctis suis deprecábitur.
Si enim Dóminus magnus volúerit, spíritu intellegéntiæ replébitur. Ipse tamquam imbres mittet elóquia sapiéntiæ suæ et in oratióne confitébitur Dómino. Et ipse díriget consílium et disciplínam et in abscónditis eius considerábit. Ipse palam fáciet disciplínam doctrínæ suæ et in lege testaménti Dómini gloriábitur.
Collaudábunt multi sapiéntiam eius, et usque in sæculum non delébitur. Non recédet memória eius, et nomen eius requirétur a generatióne in generatiónem; sapiéntiam eius enarrábunt gentes, et laudem eius enuntiábit ecclésia.

In secundo nocturno, anno II
Ex Homilíis sancti Gregórii Magni papæ in Ezechiélem (Hom. 2, 1, 17-18: SC 360, 86-90)
Sæpe ánimus ita in divína contemplatióne suspénditur, ut iam se percípere de ætérna illa libertáte quam óculus non vidit, nec auris audívit, áliquid per quamdam imáginem lætétur, sed tamen, mortalitátis suæ póndere reverberátus, ad ima relábitur et quibúsdam pœnæ suæ vínculis ligátus tenétur. Portæ ígitur inténdit, qui veræ libertátis suæ gáudia cónspicit iamque exíre concupíscit, sed adhuc non valet.
Ibi stamus, ubi mentis óculos fígimus. Unde Elías ait: Vivit Dóminus, in cuius conspéctu sto. Ibi útique stabat, ubi cor fíxerat. Cum vocem Dómini secum loquéntis audíret, in spelúncæ suæ óstio stetísse descríbitur et fáciem velásse, quia, cum per contemplatiónis grátiam vox supérnæ intellegéntiæ sit in mente, totus homo iam intra spelúncam non est, quia ánimum carnis cura non póssidet, sed stat in óstio, quia mortalitátis angústias exíre meditátur.
Sed iam qui in óstio spelúncæ consístit et verba Dei in aure cordis pércipit, necésse est ut fáciem velet, quia dum per supérnam grátiam ad altióra intellegénda dúcimur, quanto subtílius levámur, tanto semper per humilitátem nosmetípsos in intelléctu nostro prémere debémus, ne conémur plus sápere quam opórtet sápere, sed sápere ad sobrietátem, ne, dum nimis invisibília discútimus, aberrémus, ne in illa natúra incorpórea corpórei lúminis áliquid quærámus.
Nos ítaque, fratres caríssimi, qui iam per Redemptóris nostri mortem ac resurrectiónem atque ad cælos ascensiónem, gáudia ætérna didícimus, qui in testimónium divinitátis eius apparuísse extérius cives nostros ángelos illíus scimus, concupiscámus Regem, desiderémus cives quos cognóvimus, atque in hoc sanctæ Ecclésiæ ædifício stantes óculos in porta teneámus. Quia ergo perfécte exíre non póssumus, saltem in spelúncæ nostræ óstio stemus, exitúri quándoque próspere per grátiam Redemptóris nostri.
r. Videns Romæ vir beátus Anglórum forte púeros: Bene, inquit, bene Angli vultu nitent ut ángeli; * Opórtet illis monstrári iter salútis ætérnæ. v. Quóniam Dómini est regnum, et ipse dominábitur géntium. * Opórtet. v. Glória Patri. * Opórtet.
Orémus.
Deus, qui pópulis tuis indulgéntia cónsulis et amóre domináris, † da spíritum sapiéntiæ, intercedénte beáto Gregório papa, quibus dedísti régimen disciplínæ, ut de proféctu sanctárum óvium fiant gáudia ætérna pastórum. Per Dóminum.
God, who cares for Thy people with indulgence and directs them with love, grant the spirit of wisdom, through the intercession of Blessed Pope Gregory, to those who have been entrusted with the mission of governing, so that the progress of the faithful may be the eternal joy of the pastors.
