℣. Introíbo ad altáre Dei. ℟. Ad Deum, qui lætíficat juventútem meam. ℣. Júdica me, Deus, et discérne causam meam de gente non sancta: ab hómine iníquo et dolóso érue me. ℟. Quia tu es, Deus, fortitúdo mea: quare me repulísti, et quare tristis incédo, dum afflígit me inimícus? ℣. Emítte lucem tuam et veritátem tuam: ipsa me deduxérunt et adduxérunt in montem sanctum tuum et in tabernácula tua. ℟. Et introíbo ad altáre Dei, ad Deum, qui lætíficat juventútem meam. ℣. Confíteor Deo omnipoténti, beátæ Maríæ semper Vírgini, beáto Michaéli Archángelo, beáto Ioánni Baptístæ, sanctis Apóstolis Petro et Paulo, ómnibus Sanctis, et vobis, fratres, quia peccávi nimis cogitatióne, verbo et ópere: mea culpa, mea culpa, mea máxima culpa. ℟. Misereátur tui omnípotens Deus, et, dimíssis peccátis tuis, perdúcat te ad vitam ætérnam. ℣. Amen.
℣. I will go in to the altar of God. ℟. To God who giveth joy to my youth. ℣. Judge me, O God, and distinguish my cause from the nation which is not holy: deliver me from the unjust and deceitful man. ℟. For Thou, O God, art my strength: why hast Thou cast me off? and why go I sorrowful whilst the enemy afflicteth me? ℣. Send forth Thy light and Thy truth: they have conducted me and brought me unto Thy holy mount, and into Thy tabernacles. ℟. And I will go in to the altar of God: to God who giveth joy to my youth. ℣. I confess to almighty God, to the blessed Mary ever Virgin, blessed Michael the Archangel, blessed John the Baptist, the holy Apostles Peter and Paul, to all the Saints, and to you, brothers, that I have sinned exceedingly in thought, word, and deed: through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault. ℟. May almighty God be merciful to thee, and forgiving thy sins, bring thee to everlasting life. ℣. Amen.
Dómine, in tua misericórdia sperávi: exsultávit cor meum in salutári tuo: cantábo Dómino, qui bona tríbuit mihi. Usquequo, Dómine, oblivísceris me in finem? usquequo avértis fáciem tuam a me? Dómine, in tua misericórdia sperávi: exsultávit cor meum in salutári tuo: cantábo Dómino, qui bona tríbuit mihi.
O Lord, I have trusted in thy mercy. My heart shall rejoice in thy salvation: I will sing to the Lord, who giveth me good things. How long, O Lord, wilt thou forget me unto the end? how long dost thou turn away thy face from me? O Lord, I have trusted in thy mercy. My heart shall rejoice in thy salvation: I will sing to the Lord, who giveth me good things.

Deus, in te sperántium fortitúdo, adésto propítius invocatiónibus nostris: et, quia sine te nihil potest mortális infírmitas, præsta auxílium grátiæ tuæ; ut, in exsequéndis mandátis tuis, et voluntáte tibi et actióne placeámus.
O God, the Strength of all them that put their trust in thee, mercifully accept our prayers, and because through the weakness of our mortal nature we can do no good thing without thee, grant us the help of thy grace, that in keeping of thy commandments we may please thee, both in will and deed.
Léctio Epístolæ beáti Joánni Apóstoli Caríssimi: Deus cáritas est. In hoc appáruit cáritas Dei in nobis, quóniam Fílium suum unigénitum misit Deus in mundum, ut vivámus per eum. In hoc est cáritas: non quasi nos dilexérimus Deum, sed quóniam ipse prior diléxit nos, et misit Fílium suum propitiatiónem pro peccátis nostris. Caríssimi, si sic Deus diléxit nos: et nos debémus altérutrum dilígere. Deum nemo vidit umquam. Si diligámus ínvicem, Deus in nobis manet, et cáritas ejus in nobis perfécta est. In hoc cognóscimus, quóniam in eo manémus et ipse in nobis: quóniam de Spíritu suo dedit nobis. Et nos vídimus et testificámur, quóniam Pater misit Fílium suum Salvatórem mundi. Quisquis conféssus fúerit, quóniam Jesus est Fílius Dei, Deus in eo manet et ipse in Deo. Et nos cognóvimus et credídimus caritáti, quam habet Deus in nobis. Deus cáritas est: et qui manet in caritáte, in Deo manet et Deus in eo. In hoc perfécta est cáritas Dei nobíscum, ut fidúciam habeámus in die judicii: quia, sicut ille est, et nos sumus in hoc mundo. Timor non est in caritáte: sed perfécta cáritas foras mittit timórem, quóniam timor pœnam habet. Qui autem timet, non est perféctus in caritáte. Nos ergo diligámus Deum, quóniam Deus prior diléxit nos. Si quis díxerit, quóniam díligo Deum, et fratrem suum óderit, mendax est. Qui enim non díligit fratrem suum, quem videt, Deum, quem non videt, quómodo potest dilígere? Et hoc mandátum habémus a Deo: ut, qui diligit Deum, díligat et fratrem suum.
Lesson from the first letter of St John the Apostle Dearly beloved: He that loveth not, knoweth not God: for God is charity. By this hath the charity of God appeared towards us, because God hath sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we may live by him. In this is charity: not as though we had loved God, but because he hath first loved us, and sent his Son to be a propitiation for our sins. My dearest, if God hath so loved us; we also ought to love one another. No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abideth in us, and his charity is perfected in us. In this we know that we abide in him, and he in us: because he hath given us of his spirit. And we have seen, and do testify, that the Father hath sent his Son to be the Saviour of the world. Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God abideth in him, and he in God. And we have known, and have believed the charity, which God hath to us. God is charity: and he that abideth in charity, abideth in God, and God in him. In this is the charity of God perfected with us, that we may have confidence in the day of judgment: because as he is, we also are in this world. Fear is not in charity: but perfect charity casteth out fear, because fear hath pain. And he that feareth, is not perfected in charity. Let us therefore love God, because God first hath loved us. If any man say, I love God, and hateth his brother; he is a liar. For he that loveth not his brother, whom he seeth, how can he love God, whom he seeth not? And this commandment we have from God, that he, who loveth God, love also his brother.
Ego dixi: Dómine, miserére mei: sana ánimam meam, quia peccávi tibi. ℣. Beátus, qui intéllegit super egénum et páuperem: in die mala liberábit eum Dóminus. Allelúja, allelúja. Verba mea áuribus pércipe, Dómine: intéllege clamórem meum. Allelúja.
I said: O Lord, be thou merciful to me : heal my soul, for I have sinned against thee. Blessed is he that understandeth concerning the needy and the poor : the Lord will deliver him in the evil day. Allelúja, allelúja. Give ear, O Lord, to my words, understand my cry. Allelúja.
Sequéntia † sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam In illo témpore: Dixit Jesus discípulis suis: Estóte misericórdes, sicut et Pater vester miséricors est. Nolíte judicáre, et non judicabímini: nolíte condemnáre, et non condemnabímini. Dimíttite, et dimittémini. Date, et dábitur vobis: mensúram bonam et confértam et coagitátam et supereffluéntem dabunt in sinum vestrum. Eadem quippe mensúra, qua mensi fuéritis, remetiétur vobis. Dicébat autem illis et similitúdinem: Numquid potest cæcus cæcum dúcere? nonne ambo in fóveam cadunt? Non est discípulus super magistrum: perféctus autem omnis erit, si sit sicut magister ejus. Quid autem vides festúcam in óculo fratris tui, trabem autem, quæ in óculo tuo est, non consíderas? Aut quómodo potes dícere fratri tuo: Frater, sine, ejíciam festúcam de óculo tuo: ipse in oculo tuo trabem non videns? Hypócrita, ejice primum trabem de oculo tuo: et tunc perspícies, ut edúcas festúcam de óculo fratris tui.
Continuation + of the Holy Gospel according to Luke In that time Jesus said to his disciples: Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful. Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. Forgive, and you shall be forgiven. Give, and it shall be given to you: good measure and pressed down and shaken together and running over shall they give into your bosom. For with the same measure that you shall mete withal, it shall be measured to you again. And he spoke also to them a similitude: Can the blind lead the blind? do they not both fall into the ditch? The disciple is not above his master: but every one shall be perfect, if he be as his master. And why seest thou the mote in thy brother's eye: but the beam that is in thy own eye thou considerest not? Or how canst thou say to thy brother: Brother, let me pull the mote out of thy eye, when thou thyself seest not the beam in thy own eye? Hypocrite, cast first the beam out of thy own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to take out the mote from thy brother's eye.
Inténde voci orationis meæ, Rex meus et Deus meus: quóniam ad te orábo, Dómine.
Hearken to the voice of my prayer, O my King and my God. For to thee will I pray: O Lord.
Hostias nostras, quǽsumus, Dómine, tibi dicátas placátus assúme: et ad perpetuum nobis tríbue proveníre subsídium.

Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus, Dóminus Deus Sábaoth. Pleni sunt cæli et terra glória tua. Hosánna in excélsis. Benedíctus, qui venit in nómine Dómini. Hosánna in excélsis.
Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of Sabaoth. Heaven and earth are full of Thy glory. Hosanna in the highest. Blessed is He that cometh in the Name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest.
Te ígitur, clementíssime Pater, per Jesum Christum, Fílium tuum, Dóminum nostrum, súpplices rogámus ac pétimus, uti accépta hábeas et benedícas hæc dona, hæc múnera, hæc sancta sacrifícia illibáta. Quam oblatiónem tu, Deus, in ómnibus, quǽsumus, benedíctam, adscríptam, ratam, rationábilem, acceptabilémque fácere dignéris: ut nobis Corpus et Sanguis fiat dilectíssimi Fílii tui, Dómini nostri Jesu Christi. Qui, prídie quam paterétur, accépit panem in sanctas ac venerábiles manus suas, et elevátis óculis in cælum ad te Deum, Patrem suum omnipoténtem, tibi grátias agens, benedíxit, fregit, dedítque discípulis suis, dicens: Accípite et manducáte ex hoc omnes: HOC EST ENIM CORPUS MEUM. Símili modo, postquam cenátum est, accípiens et hunc præclárum Cálicem in sanctas ac venerábiles manus suas, item tibi grátias agens, benedíxit, dedítque discípulis suis, dicens: Accípite et bíbite ex eo omnes: HIC EST ENIM CALIX SÁNGUINIS MEI, NOVI ET ÆTÉRNI TESTAMÉNTI, MYSTÉRIUM FÍDEI, QUI PRO VOBIS ET PRO MULTIS EFFUNDÉTUR IN REMISSIÓNEM PECCATÓRUM. Hæc quotiescúmque fecéritis, in mei memóriam faciétis.
We therefore, humbly pray and beseech Thee, most merciful Father, through Jesus Christ, Thy Son, our Lord, that Thou wouldst vouchsafe to accept and bless these gifts, these presents, these holy unspotted Sacrifices. Which oblation do Thou, O God, vouchsafe in all respects, to bless, approve, ratify, make worthy and acceptable; that it may be made for us the Body and Blood of Thy most beloved Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Who, the day before He suffered, took bread into His holy and venerable hands, and with His eyes lifted up towards heaven unto Thee, God, His almighty Father, giving thanks to Thee, He blessed it, broke it and gave it to His disciples saying: Take and eat ye all of this: FOR THIS IS MY BODY. In like manner, after He had supped, taking also this excellent chalice into His holy and venerable hands, He likewise, giving thanks to Thee, blessed it, and gave it to His disciples, saying: Take and drink ye all of this: FOR THIS IS THE CHALICE OF MY BLOOD OF THE NEW AND ETERNAL TESTAMENT, THE MYSTERY OF FAITH, WHICH SHALL BE SHED FOR YOU AND FOR MANY UNTO THE REMISSION OF SINS. As often as ye do these things, ye shall do them in remembrance of Me.
Pater noster, qui es in cælis, sanctificétur nomen tuum. Advéniat regnum tuum. Fiat volúntas tua, sicut in cælo et in terra. Panem nostrum quotidiánum da nobis hódie. Et dimítte nobis débita nostra, sicut et nos dimíttimus debitóribus nostris. Et ne nos indúcas in tentatiónem. Sed líbera nos a malo. Amen.
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.
Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccáta mundi: miserére nobis. Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccáta mundi: miserére nobis. Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccáta mundi: dona nobis pacem.
Lamb of God, who takest away the sins of the world, have mercy on us. Lamb of God, who takest away the sins of the world, have mercy on us. Lamb of God, who takest away the sins of the world, grant us peace.
Narrábo ómnia mirabília tua: lætábor et exsultábo in te: psallam nómini tuo, Altíssime.
I will relate all thy wonders. I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing to thy name, O thou most high.
Tantis, Dómine, repléti munéribus: præsta, quǽsumus; ut et salutária dona capiámus, et a tua numquam laude cessémus.

℣. Ite, missa est. ℟. Deo grátias. Pláceat tibi, sancta Trínitas, obséquium servitútis meæ: et præsta, ut sacrifícium, quod óculis tuæ majestátis indígnus óbtuli, tibi sit acceptábile, mihíque et ómnibus, pro quibus illud óbtuli, sit, te miseránte, propitiábile. Per Christum, Dóminum nostrum. Amen. ℣. Benedícat vos omnípotens Deus, Pater, et Fílius, ✝ et Spíritus Sanctus. ℟. Amen.
℣. Go, the Mass is ended. ℟. Thanks be to God. May the performance of my homage be pleasing to Thee, O holy Trinity: and grant that the Sacrifice which I, though unworthy, have offered up in the sight of Thy Majesty, may be acceptable to Thee, and through Thy mercy, be a propitiation for me, and for all those for whom I have offered it. Through Christ our Lord. Amen. ℣. May almighty God the Father, Son, ✝ and Holy Ghost, bless you. ℟. Amen.
In princípio erat Verbum, et Verbum erat apud Deum, et Deus erat Verbum. Hoc erat in princípio apud Deum. Ómnia per ipsum facta sunt: et sine ipso factum est nihil, quod factum est. In ipso vita erat, et vita erat lux hóminum: et lux in ténebris lucet, et ténebræ eam non comprehendérunt. Fuit homo missus a Deo, cui nomen erat Joánnes. Hic venit in testimónium, ut testimónium perhibéret de lúmine, ut omnes créderent per illum. Non erat ille lux, sed ut testimónium perhibéret de lúmine. Erat lux vera, quæ illúminat omnem hóminem veniéntem in hunc mundum. In mundo erat, et mundus per ipsum factus est, et mundus eum non cognóvit. In própria venit, et sui eum non recepérunt. Quotquot autem recepérunt eum, dedit eis potestátem fílios Dei fíeri, his, qui credunt in nómine ejus: qui non ex sanguínibus, neque ex voluntáte carnis, neque ex voluntáte viri, sed ex Deo nati sunt. ET VERBUM CARO FACTUM EST, et habitávit in nobis: et vídimus glóriam ejus, glóriam quasi Unigéniti a Patre, plenum grátiæ et veritátis. ℟. Deo grátias.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him: and without Him was made nothing that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men: and the light shineth in darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. This man came for a witness, to give testimony of the light, that all men might believe through him. He was not the light, but was to give testimony of the light. That was the true light, which enlighteneth every man that cometh into this world. He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knew Him not. He came unto His own, and His own received Him not. But as many as received Him, He gave them power to be made the sons of God, to them that believe in His Name: who are born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. AND THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH, and dwelt among us: and we saw His glory, the glory as it were of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. ℟. Thanks be to God.
