Ex Constitutióne Sacrosánctum Concílium Concílii Vaticáni secúndi de sacra Litúrgia (Nn. 5-6)
Deus, qui omnes hómines vult salvos fíeri et ad agnitiónem veritátis veníre, multifáriam multísque modis olim loquens pátribus in prophétis, ubi venit plenitúdo témporis, misit Fílium suum, Verbum carnem factum, Spíritu Sancto unctum, ad evangelizándum paupéribus, ad sanándos contrítos corde, médicum carnálem et spiritálem, mediatórem Dei et hóminum. Ipsíus namque humánitas, in unitáte persónæ Verbi, fuit instruméntum nostræ salútis. Quare in Christo nostræ reconciliatiónis procéssit perfécta placátio, et divíni cultus nobis est índita plenitúdo.
Hoc autem humánæ redemptiónis et perféctæ Dei glorificatiónis opus, cui divína magnália in pópulo Véteris Testaménti, prælúserant, adimplévit Christus Dóminus, præcípue per suæ beátæ passiónis, ab ínferis resurrectiónis et gloriósæ ascensiónis paschále mystérium, quo mortem nostram moriéndo destrúxit et vitam resurgéndo reparávit. Nam de látere Christi in cruce dormiéntis ortum est totíus Ecclésiæ mirábile sacraméntum. Ideóque, sicut Christus missus est a Patre, ita et ipse apóstolos, replétos Spíritu Sancto, misit, non solum ut, prædicántes Evangélium omni creatúræ, annuntiárent Fílium Dei morte sua et resurrectióne nos a potestáte Sátanæ et a morte liberásse et in regnum Patris transtulísse, sed étiam ut, quod annuntiábant, opus salútis per sacrifícium et sacraménta, circa quæ tota vita litúrgica vertit, exercérent.
Sic per baptísmum hómines pascháli Christi mystério inserúntur: commórtui, consepúlti, conresuscitáti, Spíritum accípiunt adoptiónis filiórum, in quo clamámus: Abba, Pater! et ita fiunt veri adoratóres, quos Pater quærit. Simíliter quotiescúmque domínicam cenam mandúcant, mortem Dómini annúntiant, donec véniat.
r. Tulérunt Dóminum meum, et néscio ubi posuérunt eum. Dicunt ei ángeli: Noli flere, María; * Surréxit sicut dixit; præcédet vos in Galilæam; ibi eum vidébitis, allelúia, allelúia. v. Dum ergo fleret, inclinávit se et prospéxit in monuméntum, et vidit duos ángelos in albis sedéntes qui dicunt ei: * Surréxit. v. Glória Patri. * Surréxit.

Ex Epístulis sanctæ Catharínæ Senénsis vírginis (Ep. 129 ad novitios Ordinis Sanctæ Mariæ de Monte Oliveto)
Filíoli mei caríssimi in Christo dulci Iesu. Ego Catharína minístra et serva servórum Iesu Christi scribo vobis in pretióso sánguine eius, vos vidére desíderans fílios usque ad mortem obœdiéntes, ab immaculáto Agno discéntes qui Patri usque ad ignominiósam mortem crucis obœdiens fuit. Bene atténdite quia ipse est via et régula quam sequámini opórtet vos et omnes creatúræ; illum ante mentis vestræ óculos ponátis volo. Respícite quómodo sit ob diens Verbum istud! Ipse enim non recúsat labórem ex póndere quod a Patre recépit, at contra máximo currit desidério. Hoc vero in última Cena patefécit, dicens : Desidério desiderávi hoc Pascha manducáre vobíscum ántequam móriar.
Pascha manducáre idem est ac Patris voluntátem atque Fílii desidérium adimplére. Et nihil fere témporis ante se videns (se ipsum enim ad últimum videns pro nobis Patri sacrifícium offeréndum) gaudet et exsúltat atque gaudens dicit : Desidério desiderávi. Et hoc erat Pascha de quo loquebátur, scílicet se ipsum cibum dare et obœdiéntia Patri sacrifícium córporis immoláre. Iam álias Iesus Pascha manducáverat cum discípulis suis sed numquam sicut nunc.
O inæstimábilem, dulcíssimam et ardentíssimam caritátem! Nihil cógitas de cruciátu, nihil de opprobriósa morte tua. Verbum videt quod a Patre eléctum fuit et sponsam humanitátem accépit; et iussum fuit ut nobis sánguinem suum daret ut volúntas Dei adimplerétur in nobis ita ut sánguine ipsíus sanctificarémur. Et ita rogo vos, filíoli mei dulces in Christo dulci Iesu, ut numquam quidquam timeátis, in sánguine Christi crucifíxi confidéntes.
r. Veni, elécta mea, et ponam in te thronum meum; * Quia concupívit rex spéciem tuam, allelúia. v. Spécie tua et pulchritúdine tua inténde, próspere procéde et regna. * Quia. v. Glória Patri. * Quia.
Orémus.
Deus, qui beátam Catharínam, in contemplatióne domínicæ passiónis et in Ecclésiæ tuæ servítio, divíno amóre flagráre fecísti, † ipsíus intercessióne concéde, ut pópulus tuus, Christi mystério sociátus, * in eius glóriæ revelatióne semper exsúltet. Per Dóminum.
God, who inflamed Blessed Catherine with love by making her contemplate the Lord's Passion and by calling her unto the service of Thy Church; through his intercession, grant that Thy people may join in the mystery of Christ to rejoice forevermore in the revelation of His glory.
