Bright splendor of divinity, O Christ, our only life and light, You bring the sick a remedy, And set our crooked paths aright.
Intonat terræ chorus angelórum cǽlicum carmen, nova sæcla dicens, glóriam Patri, generíque nostro gáudia pacis.
So let the angels' song resound, To usher in the age of grace And tell of glory all around, Proclaiming joy unto our race.

You lie, an infant, ruling earth, Now rule our hearts forevermore, To whom a spotless Maid gave birth, O Christ, our most beloved Lord.
Nascéris cælos pátriam datúrus, unus e nobis, caro nostra factus; ínnova mentes, trahe caritátis péctora vinclis.
You came to give us heav'n above, As one of us, you took our flesh; Entwine our hearts with bonds of love And with your grace our minds refresh.
Cœtus exsúltans canit ecce noster ángelis læto sociátus ore, et Patri tecum parilíque Amóri cántica laudis. Amen.
Behold we join the angels' song And cry to you with one accord, To whom all hymns of praise belong, The Holy Trinity, one Lord.

neque ambulávi in magnis, * neque in mirabílibus super me.
Neither have I walked in great matters, nor in wonderful things above me.
Vere pacátam et quiétam * feci ánimam meam;
If I was not humbly minded, but exalted my soul:
sicut ablactátus in sinu matris suæ, * sicut ablactátus, ita in me est ánima mea.
As a child that is weaned is towards his mother, so reward in my soul.

De Epístula beáti Pauli apóstoli ad Colossénses
Fratres, nemo vos iúdicet in cibo aut in potu aut ex parte diéi festi aut neoméniæ aut sabbatórum, quæ sunt umbra futurórum, corpus autem Christi. Nemo vos bravío defráudet cómplacens sibi in humilitáte et religióne angelórum propter ea quæ vidit, ingrédiens, frustra inflátus sensu carnis suæ et non tenens caput, ex quo totum corpus per nexus et coniunctiónes subministrátum et compaginátum crescit in augméntum Dei.
Si mórtui estis cum Christo ab eleméntis mundi, quid tamquam vivéntes in mundo decrétis subicímini: " Ne tetígeris neque gustáveris neque contrectáveris ", quæ sunt ómnia in corruptiónem ipso usu secúndum præcépta et doctrínas hóminum?
Igitur si conresurrexístis Christo, quæ sursum sunt quærite, ubi Christus est in déxtera Dei sedens; quæ sursum sunt sápite, non quæ supra terram. Mórtui enim estis, et vita vestra abscóndita est cum Christo in Deo! Cum Christus apparúerit, vita vestra, tunc et vos apparébitis cum ipso in glória.
r. Beáta víscera Maríæ Vírginis, quæ portavérunt ætérni Patris Fílium, et beáta úbera quæ lactavérunt Christum Dóminum: * Quia hódie pro salúte mundi de Vírgine nasci dignátus est. v. Dies sanctificátus illúxit nobis: veníte, Gentes, et adoráte Dóminum. * Quia. v. Glória Patri. * Quia.
In secundo nocturno, anno I
Ex Tractátu sancti Basílii Magni epíscopi de Spíritu Sancto (Cap 26: PG 32, 179-182)
Qui iam non vivit secúndum carnem, sed Spíritu Dei ágitur, ac fílius Dei nominátur et confórmis imágini Fílii Dei factus est, spiritális dícitur. Et sicut cernéndi vis est in óculo sano, sic operátio Spíritus in ánima purgáta. Item quemádmodum verbum est in ánimo, intérdum ut in corde cogitátum, intérdum ut lingua prolátum; sic et Spíritus Sanctus, vel cum testimónium præbet spíritui nostro, et clamat in córdibus nostris: Abba, Pater, vel cum lóquitur pro nobis, iuxta id quod dictum est: Non vos estis qui loquímini, sed Spíritus Patris qui lóquitur in vobis.
Iam vero, et ut totum in pártibus, Spíritus intellégitur iuxta donórum distributiónem. Omnes enim ínvicem sumus membra, sed habéntes dona secúndum Dei grátiam nobis datam divérsa. Eaprópter, non potest dícere óculus mánui: "Non opus hábeo te "; aut rursus caput pédibus: " Non est mihi vobis opus ". Sed ómnia quidem simul complent corpus Christi in unitáte Spíritus; necessáriam autem utilitátem sibi ínvicem reddunt ex donis.
Deus enim pósuit membra in córpore, unumquódque illórum ut vóluit. Membra autem eámdem habent pro se mútuo sollicitúdinem, iuxta spiritálem mútuæ affectiónis ipsis ínsitæ communiónem. Eóque sive pátitur unum membrum, una cum eo patiúntur ómnia membra; sive glorificátur unum membrum, simul gaudent ómnia membra. Rursus, quemádmodum partes sunt in toto, ita sínguli sumus in Spíritu, eo quod omnes in uno córpore in unum Spíritum baptizáti sumus.
r. Congratulámini mihi, omnes qui dilígitis Dóminum: quia cum essem párvula plácui Altíssimo, * Et de meis viscéribus génui Deum et hóminem. v. Beátam me dicent omnes generatiónes, quia ancíllam húmilem respéxit Deus. * Et. v. Glória Patri. * Et.
Orémus.
Omnípotens sempitérne Deus, qui per advéntum Unigéniti Fílii tui nova luce radiáre dignátus es, † concéde nobis, ut, sicut eum per Vírginis partum in forma nostri córporis merúimus habére partícipem, * ita et in eius regno grátiæ mereámur esse consórtes. Per Dóminum.
Almighty and eternal God, who has deigned to illuminate with the coming of Thy only Son with a new light, grant us that, as we have merited to have Him as a partner by taking the form of our body through the birth of the Virgin, we also deserve to be associated with His kingdom of grace.
