Hymnus
Christe, pastórum caput atque princeps, géstiens huius celebráre festum, débitas sacro pia turba psallit cármine laudes.
pro papa:
Quas oves déderas, ovíle orbis ut totus fíeret sacrátum, hic tuo nutu pósitus suprémo cúlmine rexit.
pro episcopo:
Strénuum bello púgilem supérni chrísmatis pleno tuus unxit intus Spíritus dono, posuítque sanctam páscere gentem.
pro presbytero:
Hunc tibi eléctum fáciens minístrum ac sacerdótem sócians, dedísti dux ut astaret pópulo fidélis ac bonus altor.
Hic gregis ductor fuit atque forma, lux erat cæco, mísero levámen, próvidus cunctis pater omnibúsque ómnia factus.
Christe, qui sanctis méritam corónam reddis in cælis, dócili magístrum fac sequi vita, similíque tandem fine potíri.
Æqua laus summum célebret Paréntem teque, Salvátor, pie rex, per ævum; Spíritus Sancti résonet per omnem glória mundum.

Ut quid, Dómine, stas a longe, * abscóndis te in opportunitátibus, in tribulatióne?
Why, O Lord, hast thou retired afar off? why dost thou slight us in our wants, in the time of trouble?
Dum supérbit, ímpius inséquitur páuperem; * comprehendántur in consíliis, quæ cógitant.
Whilst the wicked man is proud, the poor is set on fire: they are caught in the counsels which they devise.
Quóniam gloriátur peccátor in desidériis ánimæ suæ, * et avárus sibi benedícit.
For the sinner is praised in the desires of his soul: and the unjust man is blessed.
Spernit Dóminum peccátor in arrogántia sua: * Non requíret, non est Deus."
The sinner hath provoked the Lord, according to the multitude of his wrath he will not seek him:
Hæ sunt omnes cogitatiónes eius; * prosperántur viæ illíus in omni témpore.
God is not before his eyes: his ways are filthy at all times.
Excélsa nimis iudícia tua a fácie eius; * omnes inimícos suos aspernátur.
Thy judgments are removed from his sight: he shall rule over all his enemies.
Dixit enim in corde suo: « Non movébor, * in generatiónem et generatiónem ero sine malo ».
For he hath said in his heart: I shall not be moved from generation to generation, and shall be without evil.
Cuius maledictióne os plenum est et frauduléntia et dolo, * sub lingua eius labor et nequítia.
His mouth is full of cursing, and of bitterness, and of deceit: under his tongue are labour and sorrow.
Sedet in insídiis ad vicos, * in occúltis intérficit innocéntem.
He sitteth in ambush with the rich in private places, that he may kill the innocent.
Oculi eius in páuperem respíciunt. * Insidiátur in abscóndito quasi leo in spelúnca sua.
His eyes are upon the poor man: he lieth in wait in secret like a lion in his den.
Insidiátur, ut rápiat páuperem; * rapit páuperem, dum áttrahit in láqueum suum.
He lieth in ambush that he may catch the poor man: to catch the poor, whilst he draweth him to him.
Irruit et inclínat se, et míseri cadunt * in fortitúdine brachiórum eius.
In his net he will bring him down, he will crouch and fall, when he shall have power over the poor.
Dixit enim in corde suo: « Oblítus est Deus; * avértit fáciem suam, non vidébit in finem ».
For he hath said in his heart: God hath forgotten, he hath turned away his face, not to see to the end.
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.
As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, and ever shall be. Amen.

Exsúrge, Dómine Deus; exálta manum tuam, * ne obliviscáris páuperum.
Arise, O Lord God, let thy hand be exalted: forget not the poor.
Propter quid spernit ímpius Deum? * Dixit enim in corde suo: "Non requíres".
Wherefore hath the wicked provoked God? for he hath said in his heart: He will not require it.
Vidísti: † tu labórem et dolórem consíderas, * ut tradas eos in manus tuas.
Thou seest it, for thee considerest labour and sorrow: that thou mayst deliver them into thy hands.
Tibi derelíctus est pauper, * órphano tu factus es adiútor.
To thee is the poor man left: thou wilt be a helper to the orphan.
Cóntere bráchium peccatóris et malígni; * quæres peccátum illíus et non invénies.
Break thou the arm of the sinner and of the malignant: his sin shall be sought, and shall not be found.
Dóminus rex in ætérnum et in sǽculum sǽculi: * periérunt gentes de terra illíus.
The Lord shall reign to eternity, yea, for ever and ever: ye Gentiles shall perish from his land.
Desidérium páuperum exaudísti, Dómine; * confirmábis cor eórum, inténdes aurem tuam
The Lord hath heard the desire of the poor: thy ear hath heard the preparation of their heart.
iudicáre pupíllo et húmili, * ut non appónat ultra indúcere timórem homo de terra.
To judge for the fatherless and for the humble, that man may no more presume to magnify himself upon earth.

Propter nos pauperes Pater Filium dignatus est mittere. (S. Augustinus)
For us poor, the Father deigned to send His Son (S. Augustine)
Salvum me fac, Dómine, quóniam defécit sanctus, * quóniam deminúti sunt fidéles a fíliis hóminum.
Save me, O Lord, for there is now no saint: truths are decayed from among the children of men.
Vana locúti sunt unusquísque ad próximum suum; * in lábiis dolósis, in dúplici corde locúti sunt.
They have spoken vain things every one to his neighbour: with deceitful lips, and with a double heart have they spoken.
Dispérdat Dóminus univérsa lábia dolósa * et linguam magníloquam.
May the Lord destroy all deceitful lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things.
Qui dixérunt: "Lingua nostra magnificábimur, † lábia nostra a nobis sunt; * quis noster dóminus est?"
Who have said: We will magnify our tongue; our lips are our own; who is Lord over us?
"Propter misériam ínopum et gémitum páuperum, † nunc exsúrgam, dicit Dóminus; * ponam in salutári illum, quem despíciunt."

Elóquia Dómini elóquia casta, * argéntum igne examinátum, separátum a terra, purgátum séptuplum.
The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried by the fire, purged from the earth, refined seven times.
Tu, Dómine, servábis nos et custódies nos * a generatióne hac in ætérnum.
Thou, O Lord, wilt preserve us: and keep us from this generation for ever.

The wicked walk round about: according to thy highness, thou hast multiplied the children of men.

De libro Génesis
Et serpens erat callídior cunctis animántibus agri quæ fécerat Dóminus Deus. Qui dixit ad mulíerem: " Veréne præcépit vobis Deus, ut non comederétis de omni ligno paradísi? " Cui respóndit múlier: " De fructu lignórum, quæ sunt in paradíso, véscimur; de fructu vero ligni, quod est in médio paradísi, præcépit nobis Deus, ne comederémus et ne tangerémus illud, ne moriámur. "
Dixit autem serpens ad mulíerem: " Nequáquam morte moriémini! Scit enim Deus quod in quocúmque die comedéritis ex eo, aperiéntur óculi vestri, et éritis sicut Deus sciéntes bonum et malum. "
Vidit ígitur múlier quod bonum esset lignum ad vescéndum et pulchrum óculis et desiderábile esset lignum ad intellegéndum; et tulit de fructu illíus et comédit dedítque étiam viro suo secum, qui comédit. Et apérti sunt óculi ambórum. Cumque cognovíssent esse se nudos, consuérunt fólia ficus et fecérunt sibi perizómata. Et cum audíssent vocem Dómini Dei deambulántis in paradíso ad auram post merídiem, abscóndit se Adam et uxor eius a fácie Dómini Dei in médio ligni paradísi.
r. Tulit ergo Dóminus hóminem et pósuit eum in paradísum voluptátis, * Ut operarétur et custodíret illum. v. Formávit ígitur Dóminus hóminem de limo terræ, et pósuit eum in paradísum, * Ut operarétur. v. Glória Patri. * Ut operarétur.
In secundo nocturno, anno II
Ex Tractátu sancti Ambrósii epíscopi De paradíso (Cap. 3, 12-14: CSEL 32, 272-273)
Est paradísus terra quædam fértilis, hoc est ánima fecúnda, in Eden plantáta, hoc est in voluptáte quadam vel exercitáta terra, in qua ánimæ sit delectátio. Erat fons qui irrigáret paradísum. Qui fons, nisi Iesus Christus? Fons vitæ ætérnæ est, sicut et Pater; quia scriptum est: Quóniam apud te est fons vitæ. Dénique flúmina de ventre eius fluent aquæ vivæ.
Et fons légitur, et flúvius légitur, qui írrigat paradísi lignum fructuósum, quod ferat fructum in vitam ætérnam. Hic ergo fons, sicut legísti, fons enim, inquit, procédit ex Eden, id est in ánima tua fons est. Unde Sálomon ait: Bibe aquam de tuis vasis et de puteórum tuórum fóntibus. Hic est fons qui procédit ex illa exercitáta et plena voluptátis ánima: hic fons qui írrigat paradísum, hoc est virtútes ánimæ eminentíssimo mérito pullulántis.
Sed quemádmodum fons dícitur Sapiéntia Dei. Fons enim est secúndum evangélium dicens: Si quis sitit, véniat ad me et bibat; fons est et secúndum prophétam qui ait: Veníte et édite de meis pánibus, et bíbite vinum quod míscui vobis. Sicut ergo fons vitæ est Sapiéntia, fons grátiæ spiritális, ita fons virtútum est ceterárum quæ nos ad ætérnæ cursum dírigunt vitæ. Ex hac ígitur ánima quæ culta est, non ex ea quæ incúlta fons iste procédit, ut írriget paradísum, hoc est quædam diversárum frutéta virtútum, quarum sunt quáttuor inítia in quæ sapiéntia ista divíditur. Quæ sunt quáttuor inítia virtútum, nisi unum prudéntiæ, áliud temperántiæ, tértium fortitúdinis, quartum iustítiæ?
r. Plantáverat autem Dóminus Deus paradísum voluptátis, a princípio, * In quo pósuit hóminem quem formáverat. v. Plantáverat autem Dóminus Deus lignum pulchrum visu et ad vescéndum suáve, lignum étiam vitæ in médio paradísi, * In quo. v. Glória Patri. * In quo.

Deus, fidélium lumen et pastor animárum, qui beátum N. (epíscopum) in Ecclésia posuísti, ut oves tuas verbo pásceret et informáret exémplo, da nobis, eius intercessióne, et fidem serváre, quam verbo dócuit, et viam sequi, quam exémplo monstrávit. Per Dóminum.
