More sparing therefore let us make The words we speak, the good we take, Our sleep and mirth,-and closer barred Be every sense in holy guard.

Vitémus autem péssima quæ súbruunt mentes vagas, nullúmque demus cállido hosti locum tyránnidis.

Avoid the evil thoughts that roll Like water o’er the heedless soul; Nor let the foe occasion find Our souls in slavery to bind.

Domini in templum adventus

The advent of God in the Temple

Christo apertæ sunt portæ cæli propter carnalem eius assumptionem (S. Irenæus).

The gates of heaven were opened to Christ because He took on human nature. (S. Irenaeus)

Dómini est terra et plenitúdo eius, * orbis terrárum et qui hábitant in eo.

Unto the Lord is the earth and all that is in it, the world and all those who inhabit it.

Quia ipse super mária fundávit eum * et super flúmina firmávit eum.

For it is He who founded it on the seas, and established it on the rivers.

Quis ascéndet in montem Dómini, * aut quis stabit in loco sancto eius?

Who will go up on the mountain of the Lord, or who will stand in his holy place?

Innocens mánibus et mundo corde, † qui non levávit ad vana ánimam suam, * nec iurávit in dolum.

He who has innocent hands and a pure heart, who has not given up his soul to vanity, nor made a deceitful oath to his neighbor.

Hic accípiet benedictiónem a Dómino * et iustificatiónem a Deo salutári suo.

He shall receive the blessing of the Lord, and the mercy of God, his Savior.

Hæc est generátio quæréntium eum, * quæréntium fáciem Dei Iacob.

Such is the race of those who seek him, of those who seek the face of the God of Jacob.

Attóllite, portæ, cápita vestra, † et elevámini, portæ æternáles, * et introíbit rex glóriæ.

Lift up thy gates, O princes, and lift yourselves up, eternal gates, and the king of glory will enter.

Quis est iste rex glóriæ? * Dóminus fortis et potens, Dóminus potens in prœlio.

Who is this king of glory? He is the Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle.

Hymnus ad sacrificium gratiarum actionis

Hymn for the Sacrifice of Thanksgiving

De resurrectione Domini et conversione gentium (Hesychius).

Of the Resurrection of the Lord and the Conversion of the Nations

Iubiláte Deo, omnis terra, † psalmum dícite glóriæ nóminis eius, * glorificáte laudem eius.

Shout to God for joy, O whole earth; sing a hymn to His Name; make His praise glorious.

Dícite Deo: « Quam terribília sunt ópera tua. * Præ multitúdine virtútis tuæ blandiéntur tibi inimíci tui.

Tell God: How terrible Thy works are. Forasmuch as of the greatness of Thy power, Thy enemies pay Thou lying tributes.

Omnis terra adóret te et psallat tibi, * psalmum dicat nómini tuo ».

Let the earth worship Thee and chant in Thy honor, let it chant in honor of Thy name.

Veníte et vidéte ópera Dei, * terríbilis in adinventiónibus super fílios hóminum.

Come and behold the works of God, He is terrible in His designs upon the children of men.

Convértit mare in áridam, † et in flúmine pertransíbunt pede; * ibi lætábimur in ipso.

He hath changed the sea into dry land; and they crossed the river on foot, and there we will rejoice in Him.

Qui dominátur in virtúte sua in ætérnum, † óculi eius super gentes respíciunt; * rebélles non exalténtur in semetípsis.

He who dominates forevermore by His power, His eyes behold the nations; let not those who irritate him rise in themselves.

Benedícite, gentes, Deum nostrum * et audítam fácite vocem laudis eius;

Nations, bless our God, and let the accents of His praise be heard;

qui pósuit ánimam nostram ad vitam * et non dedit in commotiónem pedes nostros.

He who has given life to our souls, and who has not allowed our feet to be shaken.

Quóniam probásti nos, Deus; * igne nos examinásti, sicut examinátur argéntum.

For Thou hast tried us, O God; Thou hast made us pass through the fire, as money is passed through it.

Induxísti nos in láqueum, * posuísti tribulatiónes in dorso nostro.

Thou hast made us fall into the trap, Thou hast burdened our shoulders with tribulation.

Imposuísti hómines super cápita nostra, † transívimus per ignem et aquam, * et eduxísti nos in refrigérium.

Thou hast put men on our heads, we have passed through fire and water, and thou hast taken us out of them to put us in a place of refreshment.

Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.

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

Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc et semper, * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

De Epístula ad Hebræos

Melchisedech, rex Salem, sacérdos Dei summi, qui obviávit Abrahæ regrésso a cæde regum et benedíxit ei, cui et décimam ómnium divísit Abraham, primum quidem qui interpretátur rex iustítiæ, deínde autem et rex Salem, quod est rex Pacis, sine patre, sine matre, sine genealógia, neque inítium diérum neque finem vitæ habens, assimilátus autem Fílio Dei, manet sacérdos in perpétuum.

Intuémini autem quantus sit hic cui et décimam dedit de præcípuis Abraham patriárcha. Et illi quidem qui de fíliis Levi sacerdótium accípiunt mandátum habent décimas súmere a pópulo secúndum legem, id est a frátribus suis, quamquam et ipsi exiérunt de lumbis Abrahæ; hic autem cuius generátio non annumerátur in eis décimam sumpsit ab Abraham et eum qui habébat repromissiónes benedíxit. Sine ulla autem contradictióne quod minus est a melióre benedícitur.

Et hic quidem décimas moriéntes hómines sumunt, ibi autem testimónium accípiens quia vivit. Et ut ita dictum sit, per Abraham et Levi qui décimas áccipit, decimátus est, adhuc enim in lumbis patris erat, quando obviávit ei Melchísedech.

Si ergo consummátio per sacerdótium levíticum erat, pópulus enim sub ipso legem accépit, quid adhuc necessárium secúndum órdinem Melchísedech álium súrgere sacerdótem et non " secúndum órdinem Aaron " dici?

r. In ieiúnio et fletu orábant sacerdótes, dicéntes: * Parce, Dómine, parce pópulo tuo, et ne des hereditátem tuam in perditiónem. v. Inter vestíbulum et altáre plorábant sacerdótes, dicéntes: * Parce. v. Glória Patri. * Parce.

Ex Sermónibus sancti Leónis Magni papæ (Sermo 47, 1.2: SC 74, 63-64.65)

Sacraméntum, dilectíssimi, domínicæ passiónis in salútem humáni géneris ante témpora ætérna dispósitum, et per multas significatiónes ómnibus retro sæculis nuntiátum, non adhuc exspectámus manifestándum, sed iam adorámus implétum.

Concurréntibus ígitur ad eruditiónem nostram et novis testimóniis et antíquis, dum quod prophética cécinit tuba, evangélica pandit história et, sicut scriptum est, abýssus abýssum ínvocat, in voce cataractárum tuárum; quóniam ad enarrándam glóriam grátiæ Dei páribus sibi vócibus, utriúsque Testaménti altitúdo respóndet; et quod erat sub velámine figurárum profúndum, fit reveláta luce perspícuum.

Si tamen inter illa mirácula Salvatóris, quæ sub populórum gerebántur aspéctu, pauci Veritátis præséntiam sentiébant, ipsíque discípuli voluntária Dómini passióne turbáti, non evasérunt scándalum crucis sine tentatióne formídinis; unde fides nostra intellegéntiam súmeret, unde consciéntia robur accíperet, nisi quæ facta cognóscimus, prædícta legerémus?

Nunc autem postquam per susceptiónem infirmitátis poténtia est clarificáta virtútis, nulla fidélium mæstitúdine paschális est obscuránda sollémnitas; nec cum tristítia nobis gestórum ordo recoléndus est, cum ita Dóminus usus sit malítia Iudæórum, ut de intentióne facínoris , volúntas sit impléta miseréntis. Si autem in éxitu Israel de Ægýpto agni sanguis fuit restitútio libertátis, et sacratíssima est facta festívitas, quæ per hóstiam pécudis iram avérteret vastatóris; quanta pópulis christiánis concipiénda sunt gáudia, pro quibus omnípotens Pater Fílio suo unigénito non pepércit, sed pro nobis ómnibus trádidit illum; ut in occisióne Christi, Pascha esset verum et singuláre sacrifícium, quo non ex dominatióne pharaónis unus pópulus, sed ex diáboli captivitáte totus mundus erúitur.

r. Tribulárer si nescírem misericórdias tuas, Dómine; tu dixísti: Nolo mortem peccatóris, sed ut convertátur et vivat, * Qui Chananæam et publicánum vocásti ad pæniténtiam. v. Et Petrum lacrimántem suscepísti, miséricors Dómine. * Qui Chananæam. v. Glória Patri. * Qui Chananæam.

Orémus.

Deus, qui per Verbum tuum humáni géneris reconciliatiónem mirabíliter operáris, † præsta, quǽsumus, ut pópulus christiánus prompta devotióne et álacri fide * ad ventúra sollémnia váleat festináre. Per Dóminum.

O God, who by Thy Word marvellously accomplishes the reconciliation of the human race, we pray Thou, grant that the Christian people may hasten with eager zeal and ardent faith in the face of the approaching feasts.
