Aperi Dómine os meum ad benedicéndum nomen sanctum tuum: munda quoque cor meum ab ómnibus vanis, pervérsis et aliénis cogitatiónibus: intelléctum illúmina, afféctum inflámma, ut digne, atténte ac devóte hoc Offícium recitáre váleam, et exaudíri mérear ante conspéctum divínæ Majestátis tuæ. Per Christum Dóminum nostrum. Amen.
Dómine in unióne illíus divínæ intentiónis, qua ipse in terris laudes Deo persolvísti, has tibi Horas persólvo.
O Lord, open Thou my mouth that I may bless Thy Holy Name. Cleanse my heart from all vain, evil, and wandering thoughts; enlighten my understanding; kindle my affections, that I may pray to, and praise Thee with attention and devotion; and may worthily be heard before the presence of Thy Divine Majesty. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Lord, in union with that Divine Intention wherewith Thou didst Thyself praise God, while as Thou wast on earth, I offer these Hours unto Thee.

Pater noster, qui es in cœlis: sanctificétur nomen tuum: advéniat regnum tuum: fiat volúntas tua, sicut in cœlo et in terra.

Our Father, who art in heaven: hallowed be thy name: thy kingdom come: thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread: and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us: and lead us not into temptation: but deliver us from evil. Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
Credo in Deum, Patrem omnipoténtem, Creatórem cœli et terræ. Et in Jesum Christum, Fílium ejus únicum, Dóminum nostrum: qui concéptus est de Spíritu sancto, natus ex María Vírgine, passus sub Póntio Piláto, crucifíxus, mórtuus, et sepúltus: descéndit ad ínferos: tértia die resurréxit a mórtuis: ascéndit ad cœlos, sedet ad déxteram Dei Patris omnipoténtis: inde ventúrus est judicáre vivos et mórtuos. Credo in Spíritum sanctum, sanctam Ecclésiam cathólicam, sanctórum communiónem, remissiónem peccatórum, carnis resurrectiónem, vitam ætérnam. Amen.
I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth. And in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord; Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried: He descended into hell: the third day He rose again from the dead: He ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty. From thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost, the Holy Catholic Church, the Communion of Saints, the Forgiveness of sins, the Resurrection of the body. And the Life everlasting. Amen.

Psalmus 1.
Beátus vir, qui non ábiit in consílio impiórum, et in via peccatórum non stetit, * et in cáthedra pestiléntiæ non sedit:
2 Sed in lege Dómini volúntas ejus, * et in lege ejus meditábitur die ac nocte.
3 Et erit tamquam lignum, quod plantátum est secus decúrsus aquárum, * quod fructum suum dabit in témpore suo:
4 Et fólium ejus non défluet: * et ómnia quæcúmque fáciet, prosperabúntur.
5 Non sic ímpii, non sic: * sed tamquam pulvis, quem projícit ventus a fácie terræ.
6 Ideo non resúrgent ímpii in judício: * neque peccatóres in concílio justórum.
7 Quóniam novit Dóminus viam justórum: * et iter impiórum períbit.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
Blessed is the man who hath not walked in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stood in the way of sinners, * nor sat in the chair of pestilence.
2 But his will is in the law of the Lord, * and on his law he shall meditate day and night.
3 And he shall be like a tree which is planted near the running waters, * which shall bring forth its fruit, in due season.
4 And his leaf shall not fall off: * and all whatsoever he shall do shall prosper.
5 Not so the wicked, not so: * but like the dust, which the wind driveth from the face of the earth.
6 Therefore the wicked shall not rise again in judgment: * nor sinners in the council of the just.
7 For the Lord knoweth the way of the just: * and the way of the wicked shall perish.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: * world without end. Amen.
Psalmus 2.
Quare fremuérunt Gentes, * et pópuli meditáti sunt inánia?
2 Astitérunt reges terræ, et príncipes convenérunt in unum * advérsus Dóminum, et advérsus Christum ejus.
3 Dirumpámus víncula eórum: * et projiciámus a nobis jugum ipsórum.
4 Qui hábitat in cœlis, irridébit eos: * et Dóminus subsannábit eos.
5 Tunc loquétur ad eos in ira sua, * et in furóre suo conturbábit eos.
6 Ego autem constitútus sum Rex ab eo super Sion montem sanctum ejus, * prǽdicans præcéptum ejus.
7 Dóminus dixit ad me: * Fílius meus es tu, ego hódie génui te.
8 Póstula a me, et dabo tibi Gentes hæreditátem tuam, * et possessiónem tuam términos terræ.
9 Reges eos in virga férrea, * et tamquam vas fíguli confrínges eos.
10 Et nunc reges intellígite: * erudímini qui judicátis terram.
11 Servíte Dómino in timóre: * et exsultáte ei cum tremóre.
12 Apprehéndite disciplínam, nequándo irascátur Dóminus, * et pereátis de via justa.
13 Cum exárserit in brevi ira ejus, * beáti omnes qui confídunt in eo.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
Why have the Gentiles raged, * and the people devised vain things?
2 The kings of the earth stood up, and the princes met together, * against the Lord and against his Christ.
3 Let us break their bonds asunder: * and let us cast away their yoke from us.
4 He that dwelleth in heaven shall laugh at them: * and the Lord shall deride them.
5 Then shall he speak to them in his anger, * and trouble them in his rage.
6 But I am appointed king by him over Sion his holy mountain, * preaching his commandment.
7 The Lord hath said to me: * Thou art my son, this day have I begotten thee.
8 Ask of me, and I will give thee the Gentiles for thy inheritance, * and the utmost parts of the earth for thy possession.
9 Thou shalt rule them with a rod of iron, * and shalt break them in pieces like a potter's vessel.
10 And now, O ye kings, understand: * receive instruction, you that judge the earth.
11 Serve ye the Lord with fear: * and rejoice unto him with trembling.
12 Embrace discipline, lest at any time the Lord be angry, * and you perish from the just way.
13 When his wrath shall be kindled in a short time, * blessed are all they that trust in him.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: * world without end. Amen.
Psalmus 3.
Dómine quid multiplicáti sunt qui tríbulant me? * multi insúrgunt advérsum me.
2 Multi dicunt ánimæ meæ: * Non est salus ipsi in Deo ejus.
3 Tu autem Dómine suscéptor meus es, * glória mea, et exáltans caput meum.
4 Voce mea ad Dóminum clamávi: * et exaúdivit me de monte sancto suo.
5 Ego dormívi, et soporátus sum: * et exsurréxi, quia Dóminus suscépit me.
6 Non timébo míllia pópuli circumdántis me: * exsúrge Dómine salvum me fac, Deus meus.
7 Quóniam tu percussísti omnes adversántes mihi sine causa: * dentes peccatórum contrivísti.
8 Dómini est salus: * et super pópulum tuum benedíctio tua.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper: * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
Why, O Lord, are they multiplied that afflict me? * Many are they who rise up against me.
2 Many say to my soul: * There is no salvation for him in his God.
3 But thou, O Lord art my protector, * my glory, and the lifter up of my head.
4 I have cried to the Lord with my voice: * and he hath heard me from his holy hill.
5 I have slept and taken my rest: * and I have risen up, because the Lord hath protected me.
6 I will not fear thousands of the people, surrounding me: * arise, O Lord; save me, O my God.
7 For thou hast struck all them who are my adversaries without cause: * thou hast broken the teeth of sinners.
8 Salvation is of the Lord: * and thy blessing is upon thy people.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: * world without end. Amen.

De Epístola beáti Pauli Apóstoli ad Gálatas.
Lesson from the letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Galatians
Galat. 3. b.
Quicúmque ex opéribus legis sunt, sub maledícto sunt. Scriptum est enim: Maledíctus omnis, qui non permánserit in ómnibus, quæ scripta sunt in Libro legis ut fácit ea. Quóniam autem in lege nemo justificátur apud Deum, maniféstum est: quia justus ex fide vivit. Lex autem non est ex fide, sed Qui fécerit ea, vivet in illis. Christus nos redémit de maledícto legis, factus pro nobis maledíctum: quia scriptum est: Maledíctus omnis qui pendet in ligno: ut in Géntibus benedíctio Abrahæ fíeret in Christo Jesu, ut pollicitatiónem Spíritus accipiámus per fidem.
Tu autem Dómine miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
For as many as are of the works of the law, are under a curse. For it is written: Cursed is every one, that abideth not in all things, which are written in the book of the law to do them. But that in the law no man is justified with God, it is manifest: because the just man liveth by faith. But the law is not of faith: but, He that doth those things, shall live in them. Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written: Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Christ Jesus: that we may receive the promise of the Spirit by faith.
But Thou, O Lord, have mercy on us.
℟. Thanks be to God.

De Epístola ad Philippénses.
From the letter to the Philippines
Philipp. 2.
Hoc enim sentíte in vobis, quod et in Christo Jesu: qui cum in forma Dei esset, non rapínam arbitrátus est esse se æquálem Deo: sed semetípsum exinanívit formam servi accípiens, in similitúdinem hóminum factus, et hábitu invéntus ut homo. Humiliávit semetípsum factus obédiens usque ad mortem, mortem autem crucis. Propter quod et Deus exaltávit illum, et donávit illi nomen, quod est super omne nomen: ut in nómine Jesu omne genu flectátur cœléstium, terréstrium, et infernórum, et omnis lingua confiteátur quia Dóminus Jesus Christus in glória est Dei Patris.
Tu autem Dómine miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
For let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men, and in habit found as a man. He humbled himself, becoming obedient unto death, even to the death of the cross. For which cause God also hath exalted him, and hath given him a name which is above all names: That in the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those that are in heaven, on earth, and under the earth: And that every tongue should confess that the Lord Jesus Christ is in the glory of God the Father.
But Thou, O Lord, have mercy on us.
℟. Thanks be to God.

De Epístola ad Colossénses.
From the letter to the Colossians.
Coloss. 2. b.
In Christo inhábitat omnis plenitúdo divinitátis corporáliter: et estis in illo repléti, qui est caput omnis principátus, et potestátis: in quo et circumcísi estis circumcisióne non manu facta in exspoliatióne córporis carnis, sed in circumcisióne Christi: consepúlti ei in baptísmo, in quo et resurrexístis per fidem operatiónis Dei, qui suscitávit illum a mórtuis. Et vos cum mórtui essétis in delíctis, et præpútio carnis vestræ, convivificávit cum illo, donans vobis ómnia delícta: delens quod advérsus nos erat chirógraphum decréti, quod erat contrárium nobis, et ipsum tulit de médio, affígens illud cruci: et exspólians principátus, et potestátes tradúxit confidénter, palam triúmphans illos in semetípso.
Tu autem Dómine miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead corporeally; And you are filled in him, who is the head of all principality and power: In whom also you are circumcised with circumcision not made by hand, in despoiling of the body of the flesh, but in the circumcision of Christ: Buried with him in baptism, in whom also you are risen again by the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him up from the dead. And you, when you were dead in your sins, and the uncircumcision of your flesh; he hath quickened together with him, forgiving you all offences: Blotting out the handwriting of the decree that was against us, which was contrary to us. And he hath taken the same out of the way, fastening it to the cross: And despoiling the principalities and powers, he hath exposed them confidently in open show, triumphing over them in himself.
But Thou, O Lord, have mercy on us.
℟. Thanks be to God.

2 Have mercy on me: * and hear my prayer.
3 O ye sons of men, how long will you be dull of heart? * why do you love vanity, and seek after lying?
4 Know ye also that the Lord hath made his holy one wonderful: * the Lord will hear me when I shall cry unto him.
5 Be angry, and sin not: † the things you say in your hearts, * be sorry for them upon your beds.
6 Offer up the sacrifice of justice, † and trust in the Lord: * many say, Who sheweth us good things?
7 The light of thy countenance O Lord, is signed upon us: * thou hast given gladness in my heart.
8 By the fruit of their corn, their wine and oil, * they are multiplied.
9 In peace in the selfsame * I will sleep, and I will rest:
10 For thou, O Lord, singularly * hast settled me in hope.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: * world without end. Amen.

Give ear, O Lord, to my words, * understand my cry.
2 Hearken to the voice of my prayer, * O my King and my God.
3 For to thee will I pray: * O Lord, in the morning thou shalt hear my voice.
4 In the morning I will stand before thee, and will see: * because thou art not a God that willest iniquity.
5 Neither shall the wicked dwell near thee: * nor shall the unjust abide before thy eyes.
6 Thou hatest all the workers of iniquity: * Thou wilt destroy all that speak a lie.
7 The bloody and the deceitful man the Lord will abhor. * But as for me in the multitude of thy mercy,
8 I will come into thy house; * I will worship towards thy holy temple, in thy fear.
9 Conduct me, O Lord, in thy justice: * because of my enemies, direct my way in thy sight.
10 For there is no truth in their mouth; * their heart is vain.
11 Their throat is an open sepulchre: they dealt deceitfully with their tongues: * judge them, O God.
12 Let them fall from their devices: according to the multitude of their wickednesses cast them out: * for they have provoked thee, O Lord.
13 But let all them be glad that hope in thee: * they shall rejoice for ever, and thou shalt dwell in them.
14 And all they that love thy name shall glory in thee: * For thou wilt bless the just.
15 O Lord as with a shield of thy good will * thou hast crowned us.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: * world without end. Amen.
Psalmus 8.
Dómine Dóminus noster, * quam admirábile est nomen tuum in univérsa terra!

3 Ex ore infántium et lacténtium perfecísti laudem propter inimícos tuos, * ut déstruas inimícum et ultórem.

5 Quid est homo, quod memor es ejus? * aut fílius hóminis, quóniam vísitas eum?
6 Minuísti eum paulo minus ab Angelis, glória et honóre coronásti eum: * et constituísti eum super ópera mánuum tuárum.

O Lord our Lord, * how admirable is thy name in the whole earth!
2 For thy magnificence is elevated * above the heavens.
3 Out of the mouth of infants and of sucklings thou hast perfected praise, because of thy enemies, * that thou mayst destroy the enemy and the avenger.
4 For I will behold thy heavens, the works of thy fingers: * the moon and the stars which thou hast founded.
5 What is man that thou art mindful of him? * or the son of man that thou visitest him?
6 Thou hast made him a little less than the angels, thou hast crowned him with glory and honour: * And hast set him over the works of thy hands.
7 Thou hast subjected all things under his feet, * all sheep and oxen: moreover the beasts also of the fields.
8 The birds of the air, and the fishes of the sea, * that pass through the paths of the sea.
9 O Lord our Lord, * how admirable is thy name in all the earth!
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: * world without end. Amen.

Post insígnem victóriam, quam Constantínus imperátor, divínitus accépto signo Domínicæ Crucis, ex Maxéntio reportávit, Hélena Constantíni mater in somnis admónita, conquiréndæ Crucis stúdio Jerosólymam venit: ubi marmóream Véneris státuam in Crucis loco a Géntibus collocátam ad tolléndam Christi Dómini passiónis memóriam, post centum círciter octogínta annos everténdam curávit. Quod item fecit ad præsépe Salvatóris, et in loco resurrectiónis, inde Adónidis, hinc Jovis subláto simulácro.
Tu autem Dómine miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
After that famous victory which the Emperor Constantine gained over Maxentius, (in the year 312,) on the eve of which the banner of the Cross of the Lord had been given to him from heaven, Helen, the mother of Constantine, being warned in a dream, came to Jerusalem, (in 326,) to seek for the Cross. There it was her care to cause to be overthrown the marble statue of Venus, which had stood on Calvary for about one hundred and eighty years, and which had originally been put there to desecrate and destroy the memorial of the sufferings of the Lord Christ. The like work Helen did at Bethlehem, by cleansing from an image of Adonis the stable where the Saviour was born, and from an idol of Jupiter, the place where He had arisen from the dead.
But Thou, O Lord, have mercy on us.
℟. Thanks be to God.

Itaque loco Crucis purgáto, alte defóssæ tres cruces érutæ sunt, repertúsque seórsum ab illis Crucis Domínicæ títulus: qui cum ex tribus cui affíxus fuísset, non apparéret, eam dubitatiónem sústulit miráculum. Nam Macárius Jerosolymórum epíscopus, factis Deo précibus, síngulas cruces cuídam féminæ gravi morbo laboránti admóvit: cui cum réliquæ nihil profuíssent, adhíbita tértia Crux statim eam sanávit.
Tu autem Dómine miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
Then she had thus cleansed the place where the Cross had stood, Helen caused deep excavations to be made, which resulted in the discovery of three crosses, and, apart from them, the writing which had been nailed on that of the Lord. But which of the crosses had been His was unknown, and was only manifested by a miracle. Macarius, Bishop of Jerusalem, after offering solemn prayers to God, touched with each of the three a woman who was afflicted with a grievous disease. The two first had no effect, but at the touch of the third she was immediately healed.
But Thou, O Lord, have mercy on us.

Hélena, salutári Cruce invénta, magnificentíssimam ibi exstrúxit ecclésiam, in qua partem Crucis relíquit thecis argénteis inclúsam, partem Constantíno fílio détulit: quæ Romæ repósita fuit in ecclésia sanctæ Crucis in Jerúsalem, ædificáta in ǽdibus Sessoriánis. Clavos étiam áttulit fílio, quibus sanctíssimum Jesu Christi corpus fixum fúerat. Quo ex témpore Constantínus legem sancívit, ne crux ad supplícium cuíquam adhiberétur; ita res quæ ántea homínibus probro ac ludíbrio fúerat, veneratióni et glóriæ esse cœpit.
Tu autem Dómine miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
Helen, after she had found the life-giving Cross, built over the site of the Passion a Church of extraordinary splendour, wherein she deposited part of the Cross, shut up in a silver case. Another part which she gave to her son, Constantine, was laid up in the Church of the Holy Cross of Jerusalem, which he built at Rome on the site of the Sessorian Palace. She also gave to her son the nails with which the Most Holy Body of Jesus Christ had been pierced. Constantine established a law abolishing the punishment of crucifixion for all time coming and thenceforth what had hitherto been a hissing and a curse among men, began to be esteemed worshipful and glorious.
But Thou, O Lord, have mercy on us.
℟. Thanks be to God.

Et de Nicodémo quid dicit? Erat princeps Judæórum, nómine Nicodémus. Hic venit ad eum nocte, et ait illi: Rabbi, scimus quia a Deo venísti magíster. Et iste ergo credíderat in nómine ejus. Et ipse unde credíderat? Séquitur: Nemo enim potest hæc signa fácere, quæ tu facis, nisi fúerit Deus cum eo.

Nicodemus was one of them which believed in the Name of Jesus, when they saw the signs and wonders which He did. So hath John given us to understand a few words before our text: "Now when He was in Jerusalem at the Passover, in the feast-day, many believed in His Name" And wherefore did they believe in His Name John telleth us immediately: "When they saw the miracles which He did." And now, what saith he touching Nicodemus? "There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto Him Rabbi, we know that Thou art a Teacher come from God." Nicodemus therefore believed in His Name. And why did he believe He saith "For no man can do these miracles that Thou doest, except God be with him."
But Thou, O Lord, have mercy on us.

Vides enim, quod iste qui média nocte perréxit, tres panes ab amíco suo póstulans, et in ipsa peténdi intentióne persístens, non defraudétur orátis. Qui sunt isti tres panes, nisi mystérii cœléstis aliméntum? Quod si díligas Dóminum Deum tuum, non solum tibi, sed étiam áliis póteris emeréri. Quis autem amícior nobis, quam qui pro nobis corpus suum trádidit? ¶ Ab hoc média nocte panes David pétiit, et accépit. Pétiit enim, quando dicébat: Média nocte surgébam ad confiténdum tibi. Ideo méruit hos panes, quos appósuit nobis edéndos. Pétiit cum dicit: Lavábo per síngulas noctes lectum meum. Neque enim tímuit, ne excitáret dormiéntem, quem scit semper vigilántem. Et ídeo scriptórum mémores, nóctibus ac diébus oratióni instántes, peccátis nostris véniam postulémus. ¶ Nam si ille tam sanctus, et qui regni erat necessitátibus occupátus, sépties in die laudem Dómino dicébat, matutínis et vespertínis sacrifíciis semper inténtus: quid nos fácere opórtet, qui eo ámplius rogáre debémus, quo frequéntius carnis ac mentis fragilitáte delínquimus, ut de via lassis, et istíus ævi cursu, ac vitæ hujus anfráctu gráviter fatigátis, panis refectiónis deésse non possit, qui hóminis corda confírmet? Nec solum média nocte Dóminus, sed ómnibus prope docet vigilándum esse moméntis. Venit enim et vespertína, et secúnda, et tértia vigília: et pulsáre consuévit. Beáti ítaque servi illi, quos cum vénerit Dóminus, invénerit vigilántes.
Tu autem Dómine miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
We gather from this commandment, among other things, that we ought to pray, not only by day, but also by night. Thou seest how that he which arose at midnight to ask three loaves of his friend, and endured in supplication, was not disappointed of that which he sought. Of what are these three loaves a figure, but of that our Mysterious Bread Which cometh down from heaven Thou seest that if thou lovest the Lord thy God, thou mayest win His bounty, not only for thyself, but for others likewise. And who can deserve more to be called our "Friend" than He Which gave His Own Body for us ¶ From this Friend it was that David asked bread at midnight, and received it, as he saith "At midnight I rise to give thanks unto thee." (Ps. cxviii. 62.) Even thus did he obtain those loaves of spiritual nourishment which he still setteth before us for our refreshment. How he asked it, we know from that he saith "Every night wash I my bed." (Ps. vi. 7.) He knew that there was no fear of waking Him Who sleepeth not. (Ps. cxx. 3.) Therefore let us keep in mind the things which are written for our learning, and be instant in prayer both by day and by night, to ask pardon of our sins. ¶ If David, who was such a Saint, and whose time was so taken up by the cares of a kingdom, praised the Lord seven times a day, (Ps. cxviii. 164,) and was always present with godly zeal at the morning and evening sacrifice, what ought we to do, (who have so much the more need to pray, as the weakness of our body and mind doth so much oftener make us to fall, ) that we, wearied with this pilgrimage, and worn out by the gradual waning of our earthly day, and the changes of life, that we, I say, may not be | starved of that life-giving Bread Which strengtheneth man's heart. The Lord teacheth us to be watchful, all of us, and that, not at midnight only, but always. And if He shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find them so blessed are those servants whom the Lord, when He cometh, shall find watching. (Luke xii. 37.)
But Thou, O Lord, have mercy on us.
℟. Thanks be to God.

We believe that Thou shalt come * to be our Judge:

O Lord, let Thy mercy lighten upon us, * as our trust is in Thee.
O Lord, in Thee have I trusted: * let me never be confounded.

O God, my God, * to thee do I watch at break of day.
2 For thee my soul hath thirsted; * for thee my flesh, O how many ways!
3 In a desert land, and where there is no way, and no water: * so in the sanctuary have I come before thee, to see thy power and thy glory.
4 For thy mercy is better than lives: * thee my lips shall praise.
5 Thus will I bless thee all my life long: * and in thy name I will lift up my hands.
6 Let my soul be filled as with marrow and fatness: * and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips.
7 If I have remembered thee upon my bed, I will meditate on thee in the morning: * because thou hast been my helper.
8 And I will rejoice under the covert of thy wings: my soul hath stuck close to thee: * thy right hand hath received me.
9 But they have sought my soul in vain, they shall go into the lower parts of the earth: * they shall be delivered into the hands of the sword, they shall be the portions of foxes.
10 But the king shall rejoice in God, all they shall be praised that swear by him: * because the mouth is stopped of them that speak wicked things.
1 May God have mercy on us, and bless us: * may he cause the light of his countenance to shine upon us, and may he have mercy on us.
2 That we may know thy way upon earth: * thy salvation in all nations.
3 Let people confess to thee, O God: * let all people give praise to thee.
4 Let the nations be glad and rejoice: * for thou judgest the people with justice, and directest the nations upon earth.
5 Let the people, O God, confess to thee: let all the people give praise to thee: * the earth hath yielded her fruit.
6 May God, our God bless us, may God bless us: * and all the ends of the earth fear him.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: * world without end. Amen.

Capitulum. Philipp. 2.
Fratres: Hoc enim sentíte in vobis, quod et in Christo Jesu: qui cum in forma Dei esset, non rapínam arbitrátus est esse se æquálem Deo: † sed semetípsum exinanívit, formam servi accípiens, in similitúdinem hóminum factus, * et hábitu invéntus ut homo.
℟. Deo grátias.
For let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men, and in habit found as a man.
℟. Thanks be to God.

Et rigor lentéscat ille,

Et supérni membra regis

Atque portum præparáre

5 Ad faciéndam misericórdiam cum pátribus nostris: * et memorári testaménti sui sancti.

11 Per víscera misericórdiæ Dei nostri: * in quibus visitávit nos, óriens ex alto:
12 Illumináre his, qui in ténebris, et in umbra mortis sedent: * ad dirigéndos pedes nostros in viam pacis.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui sancto.

Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, * for He hath visited and redeemed His people.
2 And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us, * in the house of His servant David:
3 As He spake by the mouth of His holy Prophets, * which have been since the world began:
4 That we should be saved from our enemies, * and from the hand of all that hate us:
5 To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, * and to remember His holy covenant:
6 The oath which He sware to our father Abraham, * that He would grant unto us,
7 That we, being delivered out of the hand of our enemies, * might serve Him without fear,
8 In holiness and righteousness before Him * all the days of our life.
9 And thou, child, shalt be called the Prophet of the Highest: * for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare His ways:
10 To give knowledge of salvation unto His people, * by the remission of their sins;
11 Through the tender mercy of our God, * whereby the dayspring from on high hath visited us,
12 To give light to them that sit in darkness, and in the shadow of death, * to guide our feet into the way of peace.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: * world without end. Amen.
