Learn the Nicene Creed in Latin Easily

Here is the Nicene Creed (Symbolum Nicaenum) in Latin & English.

CREDO in unum Deum, Patrem omnipotentem, factorem caeli et terrae, visibilium omnium et invisibilium.   

I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible.  

Et in unum Dominum Iesum Christum, Filium Dei **unigenitum,  ex Patre natum ante omnia saecula. Deum de Deo, Lumen de Lumine, Deum verum de Deo vero, genitum non factum, consubstantialem Patri; per quem omnia facta sunt.   

And in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, one in being with the Father; through Whom all things were  made.  

Qui propter nos homines et propter nostram salutem descendit de caelis. Et incarnatus est de Spiritu Sancto ex Maria Virgine, et homo factus est.   

Who for us men and for our salvation came down from heaven.  And he was made flesh by the Holy Spirit from the Virgin Mary, and was made man. 

Crucifixus etiam pro nobis sub Pontio Pilato, passus et sepultus est, et resurrexit tertia die, secundum Scripturas, et ascendit in caelum, sedet ad dexteram Patris.  

He was crucified for us under Pontius Pilate; suffered, and was buried. On the third day He rose again according to the Scriptures; He ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of the Father.  

Et iterum venturus est cum gloria, iudicare vivos et mortuos, cuius regni non erit finis.  

And He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and of His kingdom there shall be no end.  

Et in Spiritum Sanctum, Dominum et vivificantem, qui ex Patre Filioque procedit.  

And in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and giver of Life, Who proceeds from the Father and the Son.  

Qui cum Patre et Filio adoratur et conglorificatur: qui locutus est per prophetas.  

Who, with the Father and the Son, is adored and glorified: Who has spoken through the Prophets.  

Et unam, sanctam, catholicam et apostolicam Ecclesiam.   

And (I believe in) one holy, catholic and apostolic Church.  

Confiteor unum baptisma in remissionem peccatorum. Et expecto resurrectionem mortuorum, et vitam venturi saeculi. Amen.  

I confess one baptism for the remission of sins. And I look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the age to come. Amen.

Pope Leo XIII’s 4th Encyclical on the Holy Rosary

Pope Leo XIII's 4th Encyclical on the Holy Rosary

VI È BEN NOTO

ENCYCLICAL OF POPE LEO XIII ON THE
ROSARY AND PUBLIC LIFE*

 

To the Bishops of Italy.
Venerable Brethren,

You know how We place amid present dangers Our confidence in the Glorious Virginof the Holy Rosary, for the safety and prosperity of Christendom and the peaceand tranquillity of the Church. Mindful that in moments of great trial, pastors and people have ever had recourse with entire confidence to the august Mother of God, in whose hands are all graces, certain too, that devotion to Our Lady of the Rosary is most opportune for the needs of these times, We have desired to revive everywhere this devotion, and to spread it far and wide among the faithful of the world. Often times already We, in recommending the pious practice of devoting October to honouring Our Lady, have pointed out Our reasons and hope for so doing, and the forms to be observed; and the entire Church, docile to Our desires, has ever replied by special manifestations of devotion; and now is making ready to pay to Mary, during a whole month, a daily tribute of thedevotion so dear to it. In such pious rivalry Italy has not been behind-hand, for devotion to Our Lady is deeply and widely rooted in this land; and We doubt not that this year too, Italy will set a glorious example of love for the august Mother of God, and will give Us fresh reasons for consolation and hope. Nevertheless We cannot do less than address to you, Venerable Brethren, a few words of exhortation, so that with particular and renewed zeal the month dedicated to the Most Holy Virgin of the Rosary may be sanctified in every diocese of Italy.

2. It is easy to imagine what reasons We have for doing this. Since God called Us to govern His Church on earth, We have sought to use every possible means that We deemed suitable, for the sanctification of souls and the extension of the reign of Jesus Christ. We have excepted from Our daily solicitude no nationand no people, mindful that Our Redeemer shed His precious blood on the Cross and opened the reign of grace and of glory for all. None, however, can be surprised that We showed special care for the Italian people, for Our Divine Master Jesus Christ chose, from out all the world, Italy to be the seat of His Vicar on earth, and in His providential designs appointed Rome to be the capitalof the Catholic world. On this account the Italian people is called upon to live close to the Father of the whole Christian family, and to share in a special way in his sorrows and his glory. Unfortunately We find in Italy much to sadden Our souls. Faith and Christian morals, the precious inheritance be queathed by Our ancestors, and in all past rimes the glory of Our country and of Italy's great ones, are being attacked artfully and in covert ways, or even openly, with cynicism that is revolting, by a handful of men who seek to rob others of that faith and morality they have themselves lost. In this more especially is seen the work of the sects, and of those who are more or less their willing tools. Above all, in this city of Rome, where Christ's Vicar has his See are their efforts concentrated and their diabolical designs displayed with ferocious obstinacy.

3. We need not tell you, Venerable Brethren, with what bitterness Our soul is filled at seeing the danger there is for the salvation of so many of Our beloved children. And Our sorrow is greater because We find it impossible to oppose such great evil with that salutary efficacity We would desire and that We have the right to use, for you know, Venerable Brethren, and all the world knows, the state to which we are reduced. On this account We feel a still greater desire to call upon the Mother of God and to ask her help. Let all good Italians pray for their misguided brethren, for their common Father the Roman Pontiff, that God, in His infinite mercy, may hear and answer the prayers of a father and his sons. And Our most lively and sure hope is placed in the Queen of the Rosary, who has shown herself, since she has been invoked by that title, so ready to help the Church and Christian peoples in their necessities. Already have We recorded these glories and the great triumphs won over the Albigenses and other powerful enemies, glories and triumphs which have not only profited the Church, afflicted and persecuted, but also the temporal welfare of peoples and nations. Why in this hour of need should We not behold again such marvels of the power and goodness of the august Virgin, for the good of the Church and its Head, and of the whole Christian world, if the faithful only revive, on their part, the magnificent examples of piety given by their fore fathers, under similar circumstances? And to make this most powerful Queen more and more propitious, We would honour her more and more in the invocation of the Rosary, and increase this devotion. And to this end We have made a double of the second class for all the Church of the Feast of the Rosary. And for the same purpose We ardently desire the Catholics of Italy, with lively faith, especially during this month of October, to invoke this august Virgin and to do loving violence to her mother's heart, and to pray to her for the triumph of the Church and the Apostolic See, for the liberty of the Vicar of Jesus Christ on earth, and for peace and public prosperity. And since the effects of such prayers will be proportionate to the dispositions of those offering them, We ardently exhort you, venerable brethren, to devote all your care and zeal to kindle among those committed to your charge a strong, living, and active faith, and to call on all to return by penance to grace and to the faithful fulfilment of all their duties. Among such duties, considering the state of the times, must be reckoned as paramount an open and sincere profession of the faith and teaching of Jesus Christ, casting aside all human respect, and considering before all things the interest of religion and the salvation of souls. It cannot be concealed that, although thanks to the mercy of God religious feeling is strong and widely spread among Italians, nevertheless by the evil influence of men and the times religious indifference is on the increase, and hence there is a lessening of that respect and filial love for the Church which was the glory of our ancestors and in which they placed their highest ambition. Let it be your work, venerable brethren, to revive this Christian feeling among your people, an interest in the Catholic cause, a confidence in Our Lady's help, and a spirit of prayer. It is certain that the august Queen, invoked thus well by her many sons, would deign to hear their prayer, console Us in Our sorrow, and crown Our efforts for the Church and for Italy, by granting better times to both. With these desires, We bestow on you, venerable brethren, and the clergy and people committed to your care, the Apostolic Benediction as a promise of graces and favours of the highest kind from heaven.

Given at the Vatican this 20th day of September 1887.

Latin: Confiteor Deo

Confiteor Deo omnipotenti, beatæ Mariæ semper Virgini, beato Michaeli Archangelo, beato Ioanni Baptistæ, sanctis Apostolis Petro et Paulo, omnibus Sanctis, et tibi, pater: quia peccavi nimis cogitatione, verbo et opere: mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa.

Traditional (Latin Extraordinary) Form of Confession vs New Rite (Novus Ordo)

Today we take a deep dive into the Traditional (Latin Extraordinary) Form of Confession and compare it to the New Rite (Novus Ordo) of Confession.

The penitent enters the confessional and says, “Bless me Father, for I have sinned.”

The penitent makes the Sign of the Cross while the priest says, “The Lord be in Thy heart and on thy lips, that thou mayest rightly confess thy sins. In the name of the Father +, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.”

The penitent tells the priest how long it has been since his last Confession, then recites the number and kind of his sins. The penitent concludes with a statement to the effect of, “For these and all my other sins, which I cannot presently remember, I am heartily sorry.”

The priest may ask some questions and give some advice. The priest will assign a penance & ask you to make an Act of Contrition. 

The priest then says: “Misereátur tui omnípotens Deus, et dimíssis peccátis tuis, perdúcat te ad vitam ætérnam. Amen.”
(In English: “May almighty God have mercy on thee, and forgive thee all thy sins, and bring thee to life everlasting. Amen.”)

Holding his right hand over the penitent, the priest says: “Indulgéntiam, absolutiónem, et remissiónem peccatórum tuórum tríbuat tibi omnípotens et miséricors Dóminus. Amen.”
(In English: “May the almighty and merciful God grant thee indulgence, absolution, and remission of all thy sins. Amen.”)

Still holding his right hand over the penitent, the priest removes any impediments to the validity of the absolution he is about to give: “Dóminus noster Jesus Christus te absólvat; et ego auctoritáte ipsíus te absólvo ab omni vínculo excommunicatiónis et interdícti, in quantum possum et tu índiges.”
(The English translation: “May our Lord Jesus Christ absolve thee; and by His authority I absolve thee from every bond of excommunication and interdict, in proportion to my power and thy need.)

The priest recites the words of absolution while both the priest and the penitent make the Sign of the Cross. [A bishop makes the Sign of the Cross three times]: “Deínde ego te absólvo a peccátis tuis, in nómine Patris +, et Fílii, et Spíritus Sancti. Amen.”
(In English: “Thereupon, I absolve thee from thy sins, in the name of the Father +, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.”)

Finally, the priest says a prayer for the remission of temporal punishment due for sins: “Passio Dómini nostri Jesu Christi, mérita Beátæ Maríæ Vírginis, et ómnium Sanctórum, quidquid boni féceris, et mali sustinúeris, sint tibi in remissiónem peccatórum, augméntum grátiæ et præmium vitæ ætérnæ. Amen.”
(In English: “May the passion of our Lord Jesus Christ, the merits of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and of all the Saints, whatever good you shall have done, and evil you shall have endured, be to you unto remission of sins, increase of grace, and reward of eternal life. Amen.”)

Here is the Act of Contrition in Latin:

Ideo firmiter propono, adiuvante gratia Tua, de cetero me non peccaturum peccandique occasiones proximas fugiturum. Amen.

Devout Method of Hearing Mass iii

Today we will be covering a devout method of hearing the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass (Part iii) taken from:

The Ursuline Manual, or a Collection of Prayers, Spiritual Exercises Etc. Interspersed With The Various Instructions Necessary for Forming Youth to the Practice of Solid Piety Originally Arranged for the Young Ladies Educated at the Ursuline Convent, Cork. 

From Communion to the End of Mass

Divine Lord! thou hast at length satisfied the earnest desires of my heart. I possess thee, I embrace thee ; make me entirely thine. Jesus ! thou who constitutest the happiness of the blessed ! is it possible that thou art at this moment present in my heart ! Yes I firmly believe that I possess thee, with all the treasure of thy merits. O most sacred Virgin! who so long bore, and so fervently loved the God I now possess, praise and magnify his goodness. Offer him for me those joys which filled thy pure soul at the moment of his incarnation in thy sacred womb, and assist me to make some return for his un-bounded mercies. Remember, divine Lord! that one visit from thee would suffice to sanctify the greatest sinner: permit not then that I should receive thee in vain; let not thy precious blood fall on my heart, without producing therein the fruits of virtue thou hast so long expected. Take me out of life this moment, rather than permit me to relapse into sin. Adorable Lord of heaven and earth! thou beholdest in my heart thy beloved Son ; he is all mine; his abundant merits belong to me at this moment. I offer them to thee, my God ! and in return I ask for the most ardent love, sincere humility, and above all, the grace never to offend thee by any mortal sin. 

After Communion

I return thee my most fervent thanks, amiable Jesus ! for the blessing I now enjoy; I praise and glorify thee with all my soul, for the numberless favours I have received from thy goodness and liberalrty. 1 adore thee now reposing in my breast, my God and my All ! a thousand times welcome! most gracious Lord Jesus Christ ! how sweet, mild, and merciful art thou to all those who invoke thee : for when I had no being, thou didst create me ; when I was thy enemy, thou earnest from heaven to redeem me ; and because without thee I was helpless, thou hast given me thy sacraments, with numberless graces, to fortify my weakness, and facilitate my salvation ; but to crown all thy favours, thou givest me thy own body and blood for the nourishment of my soul. Thou shouldst retire from me, because I am a sinful creature, — dust and ashes, — the destined food of worms; — yet thou comest expressly to visit me, and take possession of my whole soul. Lord, my God, how wonderful is thy name throughout the earth ! What return shall I make to the Lord for all he has given to me ? that thou wouldst fill my lips with praises, that all the days of my life I may sing forth thy glory and celebrate thy wonderful works. Bless my God for me, ye Angels and Saints ; thank my Lord for me ; love my Jesus for me ; and sing forth his praises to supply for my deficiency. Beauty ever ancient and ever new! Too late have I known thee, too late have I loved thee. When shall the time come, that, disgusted with all earthly things, I shall seek my happiness in thee alone, and find rest to my soul ? heavenly manna ! O adorable sacrament ! inestimable pledge of God's love to mankind ! standing memorial of Christ's passion and death! inexhaustible fountain of divine grace! boundless mercy ! divine charity ! sacred fire ever burning and never decaying ! Hail, merciful Jesus ! my only happiness and delight ! the joy of my soul, and my portion for ever ! May my soul be sensible of thy adorable presence, and may I taste how sovereignly sweet thou art in the sacrament of thy love. Purify my heart, divine Lord ! from the dross of all earthly affections ; enable me to curb my vicious inclinations, and to withstand the dangerous attacks of my infernal enemy — deign to bestow on me those virtues that will render me pleasing in thy sight, particularly ardent charity, profound humility, heroic patience, and perfect obedience. ! may I prove the extent of my gratitude by the most constant fidelity in thy service, and may I rather die than ever again offend thee by any mortal sin. that I could have the happiness of seeing thee loved and faithfully served by all creatures. Vouchsafe to let the light of thy countenance shine upon those who are in the darkness of infidelity ; and dispel their errors, that they may embrace the truth, and faithfully practice all it requires. Grant peace and union to all Christian Princes, and preserve us from the dreadful scourges of war, famine, and pestilence. Convert all those who are in the unhappy state of mortal sin, and reconcile those who are at variance. Have mercy on my parents, friends, benefactors, and enemies, and mercifully grant them all the graces they stand in need of. Reform all abuses, and remove all scandals from thy Church. Comfort all that are under any affliction, sickness, or violence of pain. Support those who are under temptation; protect such as are in danger; and grant the grace of a happy death to all those who are in their last agony. Extend thy mercy likewise to the souls of all the faithful departed, and mercifully admit them to the enjoyment of thy eternal glory. Grant to us all relief in our respective necessities, remission of all our sins, the grace of final perseverance, and life everlasting.  Amen.

Devout Method of Hearing Mass Part ii

Today we will be covering a devout method of hearing the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass (Part ii) taken from:

The Ursuline Manual, or a Collection of Prayers, Spiritual Exercises Etc. Interspersed With The Various Instructions Necessary for Forming Youth to the Practice of Solid Piety Originally Arranged for the Young Ladies Educated at the Ursuline Convent, Cork. 

At the Preface

Permit not, Lord ! that my mind should wander from the consideration of the adorable mysteries now celebrating on this altar. Enlighten my understanding, inflame and animate every affection of my heart, that I may be attentive to these miracles of mercy and love. give me to understand the breadth, and length, and height, and depth (Ephes. in. 18) of that love which will soon veil thy glories under the humiliating forms of bread and wine ! that my heart were penetrated with ardent love, that I might be enabled to acknowledge less unworthily thy infinite greatness and boundless mercies. Prostrate in spirit before that throne of glory where the cherubim and seraphim, with all the heavenly host, adore thy awful Majesty, I implore thee to receive my homage, in union with the transports of admiration and love with which they incessantly proclaim that thou art Holy, Holy, Holy, and that the Lamb  which was slain is worthy to receive power, and divinity, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and benediction, forever and ever. Amen. — Apoc. v. 12. 

From the Canon to the Elevation

Ah ! my God, why do I not sigh for thy coming on this altar, with as much ardour as did the ancient patriarchs and prophets ; with as much pure desire as thy blessed Mother, the first and most perfect adorer of thy sacred humanity. I offer thee my heart, soul, mind, strength, desires, and affections, in union with the admirable dispositions of thy saints; but particularly in union with the love and devotion of that incomparable Virgin, in whose pure soul, prepared by thy divine spirit, and adorned with the treasures of thy grace, thou didst delight to dwell. I offer thee, to atone for my coldness and tepidity, her sacred heart, with all the love with which it ever was, and for all eternity will be, animated. I offer thee her heavenly contemplations, her purity, profound humility, and sufferings at the foot of the cross ; beseeching thee, through her intercession, to pardon the iniquities of her unworthy servant. And thou, O most sacred Virgin ! obtain for me a share in the holy dispositions that adorned thy soul from the moment of thy immaculate conception ; since I am also destined for the residence and sanctuary of  God. assured refuge of sinners ! I address thee with the most lively confidence, beseeching thee to obtain that I may be worthily replenished with him who was born of thee — with him who is the desire and expectation of all nations. 

At The Consecration

O Jesus! brightness of eternal light, unspotted mirror of God’s Majesty! My sovereign Life, and only Good ! thou art He whom I have so long, so ardently desired ! He whom I acknowledge for my Lord and my God, and who alone art worthy of the homage and adoration of men and angels. Monarch of heaven and earth! mighty in word and work! (Luke, xxiv. 19.) Verily thou art a hidden God, the God of Israel, the Saviour, (Isaiah, xlv. 15 ;) but the shades which conceal thy majesty, are those of the tenderest love. Divine Jesus ! thou art now glorified by the homages of numberless angels who invisibly assist at these sacred mysteries. how should their adorations and love confound and humble me, since it is not for them, but for me, that thou art hidden and degraded on the altar ! holy Angels ! blessed spirits ! love and adore the Almighty for me, and redouble your ardours to supply for my insufficiency. 

From the Elevation to the Pater Noster

Adorable Jesus ! the happy moment is fast approaching, when that sacred body which was immolated on the cross will abide in my heart, and that precious blood which was shed with so much anguish for my ransom, will be really and truly applied as a sovereign remedy to my soul. My God ! is it possible that thou, whom the heavens cannot contain, will confine thy greatness within the narrow limits of my heart; that thou, before whom the angels themselves are not pure, will unite thyself to a soul like mine, disfigured and defiled with innumerable crimes ! Lord, with the most sincere conviction of my wretchedness, I protest with the centurion, that I am not worthy thou shouldst enter under my roof. — St. Matt. viii. 8. Shall I then say with St. Peter : Depart from me, Lord, for I am a sinful creature? — St. Luke, v. 8. Shall I depart from this sanctuary, which I am unworthy to enter, and relinquish that happiness, for which my soul sighs, but which I shall never merit ? Ah ! no, my divine Saviour ! I will not leave thee, for to whom should I go but to thee? Hast thou not invited all that labour and are heavy laden (St. Matt. ix. 28) to approach thee! Therefore, not- withstanding the miseries of my soul, I come, perfectly convinced that if thou wilt thou canst make me clean. — St. Matt. viii. 2. I am weak, but thou wilt be my sovereign strength ; I am poor, but thou wilt adorn my soul with the riches of thy grace ; thou wilt destroy my pride, by the force of thy profound humiliations in the centre of my soul ; thou wilt warm my tepidity, by the fire which thou camest on earth to enkindle, (St. Luke, xii. 49 ;) thou wilt communicate to me thy divinity itself, that I may not live, but that thou mayest live in me. Come, then, my God ! the desire of the everlasting hills, (Gen. ix. 26,) the friend of sinners, the comfort of the afflicted, the hope of all the ends of the earth, (Ps. lxiv. 6.) come into my house, and let salvation enter with thee, (St. Luke, xix. 9 ;) come, that my soul, united with thee, may magnify its Lord, and my spirit rejoice in God, my Saviour. — Ibid. i. 46, 47. 

From the Pater Noster to the Agnus Dei

Father of my soul, who residest in the highest heavens, and yet attendest to the wants of thy children on earth, behold thy prodigal but repentant child, who returns to thee, penetrated with regret for ever having sought to shake off that yoke which thou thyself hast pronounced to be sweet and light — St. Matt. xi. 30. Pardon me, my divine Benefactor ! for thou knowest the clay of which I am formed ; thou rememberest that I am but dust.^ — Ps. c. 11, 14. Forget my criminal abuse of thy mercies, for the sake of Him in whose name I dare to address thee, as my Father, my Friend, and only happiness. Give me thy divine spirit, that spirit of love and adoption, which will cause me to have recourse to thee in all my necessities. Give a docile, obedient, and submissive heart, that thy supremely just and adorable will may be the rule of all my actions. But, above all, O divine Lord! give me the bread of life, the food of immortality ; give me thy divine Son ! give me him in whom thou wert always well pleased, (St. Matt. iii. 17,) that being instructed by thy wisdom and thy word, I may never deviate from the respect and love due from a child to the best and most indulgent of fathers. 

From the Agnus Dei to Communion

Lamb of God, who takest away the sins of the world ! let me not be excluded from a share in thy universal mercies. Cleanse and purify my soul; adorn it, I entreat thee, with those virtues which will render me less unworthy of participating in the food of angels. Adorable Jesus ! I am, it is true, wretched and unworthy; but hast thou not denominated thyself the Father of the poor ; and shall not that endearing title encourage me to recur to thee, as to my Father, and the best of friends? Yes, my God, I will go to thee, for thou well knowest that had I the heavens and the earth at my disposal, I wonld sacrifice all, rather than forego the happiness I am now going to enjoy. What have I in heaven, and besides thee what do I desire upon earth ? Thou art the God of my heart, and the God that is my portion forever. — Ps. lxxii. 25, 26.  Amiable Virgin ! thou who art styled by excellence Blessed among women, show thyself now my tender mother and powerful advocate ; obtain for me the grace to receive with faith, purity, fervour, and humility, the divine object of thy ardent love. Blessed spirits ! you who unceasingly attend, love, and adore the Almighty Being I am about to receive, intercede for me at this awful moment, and supply by your ardent charity for the tender devotion with which I would wish to receive my Redeemer under my roof. 

At the Confiteor

O divine Redeemer of my soul ! into thy sacred heart I cast all my offences ; they arc not more numerous than thy mercies, nor can they equal the tenderness of that love which invites me to receive thee. Jesus ! veiled as thou art, I acknowledge thee for my Lord and my God; I adore thee with all the powers of my soul and I fervently love thee with my whole heart.

Devout Method of Hearing Mass Part i

Today we will be covering a devout method of hearing the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass taken from:

The Ursuline Manual, or a Collection of Prayers, Spiritual Exercises Etc. Interspersed With The Various Instructions Necessary for Forming Youth to the Practice of Solid Piety Originally Arranged for the Young Ladies Educated at the Ursuline Convent, Cork. 

From the Beginning of Mass to the Gloria

Divine Jesus ! Mediator of the New Testament I who didst ascend into heaven, to appear in the presence of God for us, (Heb. ix. 24.) yet daily descendest on our altars, to renew that sacrifice by which we were all redeemed, mercifully penetrate m y heart with a just sense of the happiness and the advantage of assisting at a sacrifice, by which I can abundantly satisfy the justice of God, honour his divine Majesty, acknowledge his infinite mercies, and obtain the graces necessary for serving him on earth and enjoying him in heaven. Permit me, O divine Jesus ! to ascend this new Calvary with thee, that my whole soul may do homage to the greatness of thy majesty; that my heart, with all its affections, may acknowledge thy infinite love; that my memory may dwell on the admirable mysteries here renewed; and that the sacrifice of my whole being may accompany that which thou art about to offer. Alas! I am unworthy to join with thy minister in adoring thee ; I can neither feel the extent of thy blessings, nor acknowledge them as I ardently desire to do; but, O Lord ! be thou with me, that by thee, and with thee, I may worthily assist at these tremendous mysteries.

From the Gloria to the Epistle

SAVIOUR of my soul! how sweet is the hope, that thou hast absolved me from my transgressions : that thy sacred blood has washed them away ; and that thou art about to seal my pardon by the most precious gift thou canst possibly bestow. DIVINE Lord ! let this encouraging hope be realized ; say to my soul, that thou art her salvation. With the fervent penitent of the gospel, I cast myself at thy sacred feet ; let me hear with her, from thy own adorable lips, the consolatory sentence of peace and mercy; let me experience with her, the conviction that thou hast accepted my repentance, and granted me pardon. Alas ! I well know that I have neither her humility nor her contrition, her fervour nor her love to offer ; but, my God ! I venture to say, that my hopes are established on still surer grounds than would be those virtues, were I happy enough to possess them. If many sins were pardoned her, because she loved thee much, still greater crimes will be remitted to me, because thou hast infinitely loved me, a wretched creature. adorable Jesus ! in thy love and mercy I firmly trust ; deign then to do for me what is altogether above my strength and capacity; purify my soul, and prepare it for the reception of thy life-giving sacrament.

At the Epistle & Gospel

I believe, my God! every article proposed by the holy Catholic Church to my belief; and through thy grace I am disposed to die, rather than relinquish the precious gift of faith, which elevates me to the adoption of the Sons of God, and makes me heir and joint-heir with Jesus Christ. Eom. viii. 15, 17. I believe; O divine Lord ! penetrate my heart and soul with the entire import of these short but comprehensive words, and let them produce one of those prodigies of grace and conversion, which so often followed from similar confessions. I believe all thou hast revealed, without exception or reserve ; for thou hast the words of eternal life, and thou art likewise the way and the truth, St. John, 30 xix. 6. On thy unerring word I also most firmly believe that thou art really present in the august sacrament of which I am about to participate. what miracles are contained in this sacred and ever adorable mystery ! Incomprehensible as they are, I believe them all ; I adore thy omnipotence, which is a sufficient pledge of their possibility ; and thy boundless love proves to me, in an endearing manner, that they are real. Were my faith as animated as I hope it is sincere, my heart would be inflamed at the near approach of its heavenly guest, and every movement of my body and soul would be a transport of gratitude and ardent love. Come, then, Lord! thou art the God in whom I firmly believe. Come, for thou art the support and term of my hope, and thou art, by excellence, the adorable object of my most fervent love. Come, enliven and increase in my soul the divine virtues infused therein on my admission into the bosom of thy Church. Come, and purify my baptismal robe, that I may present myself before thee with a nuptial garment, and may not deserve to be excluded from the marriage feast.

Atthe Offertory

Receive, Lord, this spotless Host, which thy minister offers thee in the name of thy Church. Receive, eternal Majesty, this oblation of bread and wine, which will soon become the body and blood of Jesus Christ, who, to render thee in the name of weak mortals the adoration thou meritest, vouchsafed to clothe himself with our miseries — to become susceptible of death, and to immolate himself daily on our altars as the precious victim of our salvation. omnipotent Lord ! behold me at thy feet loaded with miseries, and charged with innumerable debts, which would overwhelm me, were I not provided by thyself with a treasure of infinite value to acknowledge thy mercies, to satisfy thy justice, and to obtain for myself and others the graces thou desirest to bestow. Animated with the most lively confidence in the merits of my Redeemer, I offer thee once more his sufferings and death ; and I make this offering for the great ends for which he instituted this adorable mystery. I offer thee this sacred Victim to adore thee as my God, to testify my love for thee, my Sovereign Benefactor ! to thank thee for the blessings thou hast bestowed on all mankind ; to implore thy mercy on behalf of all those in a dreadful state of mortal sin, and to obtain the deliverance of the suffering souls in purgatory. To this offering: I unite an unreserved oblation of my whole being, and I desire to do so with the most generous and ardent love. I entreat thee, my God ! by the perfect oblation of my divine Saviour on the altar of the cross, to pardon my past ingratitude, and to grant me the inestimable grace of preservation from all mortal sin. But, my sovereign Benefactor ! how shall I thank thee for the precious gift of thy body and blood which thus enables me to satisfy my obligation! This gift, which the homage of angels and men would be insufficient to acknowledge, can only be repaid by itself. I then offer thee my Redeemer himself, as a sacrifice of praise, and pay my vows to thee, (Ps. cxv. 18,) in union with him in whom from all eternity thou wert well pleased.
