Prayer {from the Proper of the season}
V. O Lord, hear my prayer.
R. And let my cry come unto thee.
Let us pray.
God, who on this day, through thy Only-begotten Son, overcame death, and opened to us the gate of everlasting life: as by thy anticipating grace, thou breathest good desires into our hearts, so also, by thy gracious help, bring them to good effect.
Through the same Jesus Christ, thy Son, Our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end.
R. Amen.

Sequentia
Christians! to the Paschal Victim offer your thankful praises.
The Lamb the sheep redeemeth: Christ, who only is sinless, reconcileth sinners to the Father.
Death and life contended in that conflict stupendous: the Prince of Life, who died, deathless reigneth.
Speak, Mary, declaring what thou sawest wayfaring.
"The tomb of Christ who now liveth: and likewise the glory of the Risen.
Bright Angels attesting, the shroud and napkin resting.
Yea, Christ my hope is arisen: to Galilee He goeth before you."
We know that Christ is risen, henceforth ever living: Have mercy, Victor King, pardon giving. Amen. Alleluia.

Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to Mark
Mark 16:1-7
And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalen, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, bought sweet spices, that coming, they might anoint Jesus. And what follows.
Homily of St. Gregory, Pope
Homilia 21. in Evangelia.
Dearly beloved brethren, ye have heard the deed of the holy women which had followed the Lord; how that they brought sweet spices to His sepulchre, and, now that He was dead, having loved Him while He was yet alive, they followed Him with careful tenderness still. But the deed of these holy women doth point to somewhat which must needs be done in the holy Church. And it behoveth us well to give ear to what they did, that we may afterward consider with ourselves what we must do likewise after their example. We also, who believe in Him That was dead, do come to His sepulchre bearing sweet spices, when we seek the Lord with the savour of good living, and the fragrant report of good works. Those women, when they brought their spices, saw a vision of Angels, and, in sooth, those souls whose godly desires do move them to seek the Lord with the savour of good lives, do see the countrymen of our Fatherland which is above.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R. Thanks be to God.
R. The Angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone, and sat upon it, and said unto the women:
* Fear not ye; for I know that ye seek Him That was crucified: He is risen already. Come, see the place where the Lord was laid, alleluia.
V. And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment, and they were affrighted; and he saith unto them:
R. Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Him That was crucified: He is risen already; come, see the place where the Lord was laid, alleluia.
V. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
R. The Angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone and sat upon it, and said unto the women: Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Him That was crucified: He is risen already: Come, see the place where the Lord

Reading 2
It behoveth us to mark what this meaneth, that they saw the Angel sitting on the right side. For what signifieth the left, but this life which now is? or the right, but life everlasting? Whence also it is written in the Song of Songs ii. 6: His left hand is under my head, and His right hand doth embrace me. Since, therefore, our Redeemer had passed from the corruption of this life which now is, the Angel which told that His undying life was come, sat, as became him, on the right side. They saw him clothed in a white garment, for he was herald of the joy of this our great solemnity, and the glistering whiteness of his raiment told of the brightness of this holy Festival of ours. Of ours, said I? or of his? But if we will speak the truth, we must acknowledge that it is both his and ours. The Again-rising of our Redeemer is a Festival of gladness for us, for us it biddeth know that we shall not die for ever; and for Angels also it is a festival of gladness, for it biddeth them know that we are called to fulfill their number in heaven.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R. Thanks be to God.
R. When the Sabbath was passed, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices,
* That they might come and anoint Jesus, alleluia, alleluia.
V. And very early in the morning, the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulchre, at the rising of the sun.
R. That they might come and anoint Jesus, alleluia, alleluia.
V. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
R. That they might come and anoint Jesus, alleluia, alleluia.

Reading 3
See this glad Festival then, which is both his and ours, the Angel appeared in white raiment. For as the Lord, rising again from the dead, leadeth us unto the mansions above, He repaireth the breaches of the heavenly Fatherland. But what meaneth this, that the Angel said unto the women which came to the sepulchre: Fear not? Is it not as though he had said openly: Let them fear which love not the coming of the heavenly countrymen; let them be afraid who are so laden by fleshly lusts, that they have lost all hope ever to be joined to their company. But as for you, why fear ye, who, when ye see us, see but your fellow countrymen? Hence also Matthew, writing of the guise of the Angel, saith xxviii. 3: His countenance was like lightning, and His raiment white as snow. The lightning speaketh of fear and great dread, the snow of the soft brilliancy of rejoicing.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R. Thanks be to God.

The Lamb's high banquet we await
in snow-white robes of royal state;
and now, the Red Sea's channel passed,
to Christ, our Prince, we sing at last.
Upon the altar of the cross
his Body hath redeemed our loss;
and tasting of his roseate Blood,
our life is hid with him in God.
That paschal eve God's arm was bared;
the devastating angel spared:
by strength of hand our hosts went free
from Pharoah's ruthless tyranny.
Now Christ our Passover is slain,
the Lamb of God that knows no stain;
the true oblation offered here,
our own unleavened Bread sincere.
O thou from whom hell's monarch flies,
O great, O very Sacrifice,
thy captive people are set free,
and endless life restored in thee.
For Christ, arising from the dead,
from conquered hell victorious sped;
he thrusts the tyrant down to chains,
and paradise for man regains.
Maker of all, to thee we pray,
fulfill in us thy joy today;
when death assails, grant, Lord, that we
may share thy paschal victory.
To thee who, dead, again dost live,
all glory, Lord, thy people give;
all glory, as is every meet,
to Father and to Paraclete.

O Queen of heaven rejoice! alleluia:
For He whom thou didst merit to bear, alleluia,
Hath arisen as he said, alleluia.
Pray for us to God, alleluia.
V. Rejoice and be glad, O Virgin Mary, alleluia.
R. Because the Lord is truly risen, alleluia.
Let us pray.
O God, who gave joy to the world through the resurrection of thy Son, our Lord Jesus Christ; grant, we beseech thee, that through his Mother, the Virgin Mary, we may obtain the joys of everlasting life. Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.
V. May the divine help ✝ remain with us always.
R. Amen.

Vidi Aquam
Vidi aquam egredientem de templo,
a latere dextro, alleluja:
Et omnes, ad quos pervenit aqua ista,
salvi facti sunt et dicent, alleluja.
(verse: Ps. 117)
Confitemini Domino, quoniam bonus:
quoniam in saeculum misericordia ejus.
(doxology:)
Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Spiritui Sancto.
Sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper,
et in saecula saeculorum. Amen.
I saw water flowing from the temple,
on the right side, alleluia:
And all to whom that water came
have been saved, and they will say, alleluia.
Worship the Lord, for he is good:
for his mercy is forever.
Glory 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.

This is the hymn for Prime in the Mozarabic rite.
Te lucis auctor personet
Huius caterva carmina,
Quam tu replesti gratia,
Anastasis potentia.
Nobis dies hec innuit
Diem supremum sistere,
Quam mortuos resurgere
Viteque fassis reddere.
Octaba prima redditur,
Dum mors habunda tollitur,
Dum mente circuмcidimur,
Nobique demum nascimur.
Quum mane nostrum cernimus
Redisse victis hostibus,
Mundique luxum temnimus,
Panem salutis summimus.
Ieiuniorum victimis
Corpus litamur aridis,
Piisque parsimoniis
Sacris potimur hostiis.
Hec alma sit sollemnitas
Sit clara hec festivitas,
Sit feriata gaudis
Dies reducta ab inferis.
Gloria Patri ingenito,
Gloria Unigenito,
Una cuм Sancto Spiritu
In sempiterna secula.
Amen.
Which roughly translates;
To thee author resounds
This gang songs
How are you filled with grace,
Resurection's power.
This suggests to us the day
The last day of the aforementioned
How dead rise
the dead will arrise and return to life.
Saturday first rendered,
While death having been removed,
While circuмcision
And to us finally born.
Since morning discern our
Returned vanquished foes
Despise the seductions of the world
and received the bread of salvation.
fasting victims
offering heavy fasts
and our devout abstinence
we quench the thirst with the sacred victim.
This is nourishing feast
It is a radiant feast
That is be a joyful and happy day,
A date reclaimed the world of the dead.
Glory be to the Unbegotten Father,
Glory to His only son,
And to the Holy Spirit
Forevermore.
Amen.

Here is the hymn for Vespers in Easter in the Mozarabic rite.
Te centies mille legionum Angeli
Concentu plaudunt, et canora jubilant,
Christe Jesu Alpha et Omega omnipotens,
Sepultus olim, et vivens in saecula,
Testis fidelis, et verum principium.
Qui mundi hujus dejecisti principem,
Redimens Orbem tuo almo Sanguine;
Sanctus et verus Genitus Ingeniti,
Reserans clausum, et apertum obstruens,
Faciens nos Deo Regni Sacerdotium.
Tu verus Agnus solus sine macula,
Qui dextram Patris conlocatus solio,
Solus egressus ab arce Dominica,
Similis Jaspidi, et Sardino lapidi,
Iris per gyrum, smaragdus circuis.
Tu Dei pignus, hominisque Filius,
Septies librum signatum signaculis
Solvere signa dignus repertus es:
Agnus occisus septem pollens cornibus,
Septeno fulgens et lumine flammeo.
E throno prodeunt fulgura, et tonitrua,
Septem ardentes ante thronum lampades,
Septem ubique missi Dei Spiritus,
Septem stellae micant Agni dextera,
Septem cui adstant candelabra aurea.
Sedentes circuм quater seni Primates,
Amicti cuncti niveis cycladibus,
Et laureati diademis aureis,
Aureas vehunt phialas aromatum,
Aureis psallunt modulis, et citharis.
Stant ante Thronum nitet mare vitreum,
Bis bini fortes, idem animalia:
Homo per genus, leo voce perstrepit
Juvencus ore promit Sacerdotium,
Petens ad astra more volans aquilae.
Quatuor formis senis alis singulis,
Ante et retro cuncta plena oculis,
Vigiles semper dormiendi nescii,
Vicissim Sanctus ter clamantes jugiter,
Illi, qui erat, est, et qui venturus est.
Gloria Patri, laus, sapientia
Agno sedenti supra Thronum in coelis;
cuм Patre regnat, et cuм Sancto Spiritu,
Connexa simul tribus una Deitas,
Per infinita saeculorum saecula.
Amen.
Which roughly in english as;
You hundreds of thousands of angels
In harmony, hug, in a melodious cry out,
Jesus Christ, the Alpha and the Omega, the Almighty,
He was buried in the past, and he shall live for ever,
The faithful witness, and the truth of the principle.
He cast the prince of this world,
Buys sphere of your Holy Blood;
Holy and true upto talent
Unlocking the closed and open obstruens,
Making God a kingdom of priests.
You alone are the true Lamb without blemish,
Who's right hand placed on a seat,
Out alone from the fortress Sunday,
It is like a jasper and a sardine stone,
By means of the circle of the iris, and a carbuncle circuit.
You are a pledge of God, Son of man,
Seven times book sealed seals
Loosen standards worthy art:
Lamb slain seven powerful horns,
Seven bright light and flaming.
Out of the throne come forth lightnings, and thunders,
Seven lamps burning before the throne,
Seven of the masses,
Seven stars twinkle Lamb right,
Whom stands seven candlesticks.
Sitting around a four sixes Primates
Dressed all in snowy Cyclades,
And the golden laurel crown,
Mounts golden bowls of spices,
Of gold, chant the rhythm, and with harps.
Standing in front of the throne a sea of glass is shining,
Twice two kinds of mighty men, the same as the animals:
It is through these kind of, resounds the voice of a lion,
Prom juvencus mouth priesthood
In seeking to stars more flying eagle.
Former Senior four wings each,
All things are full of eyes in front and in back,
Always awake sleeping unawares
Conversely holy three times crying constantly,
They, who was, is, and who is to come.
Glory, glory, wisdom
To the Lamb, as he sat on the throne in the heavens;
Reigns with the Father, and with the Holy Spirit,
Connected together three one Deity,
Forever and ever.
Amen.

This is the hymn from Lauds in the Mozarabic rite
Hic est dies verus Dei
Sancto serenus lumine,
Quo diluit sanguis sacer
Probrosa mundi crimina:
Fidem refundens perditis,
Coecosque visu illuminans,
Quo nos gravi solvit metu,
Latronis absolutio.
Qui praemio mutans crucem,
Jesu brevi adquisivit fidem:
Justoque brevior gradu
Pervenit in regnum Dei.
Hoc opus stupent Angeli,
Poenam videntes corporis;
Christoque adhaerentem reum
Vitam beatam capere.
Mysterium mirabile!
Ut abluat mundi luem,
Peccata tollat omnium
Carnis vitia mundans caro.
Quid hoc potest sublimius,
Ut culpam quaerat gratia?
Metumque solvat charitas,
Reddatque mors vitam novam?
Hamum sibi mors devoret,
Suisque se nodis liget?
Moriatur Vita hominum,
Resurgat Vita omnium?
Dum mors per omnes transeat,
Omnes resurgant mortui?
Consumpta mors ictu suo,
Perisse se solam gemat?
Quaesumus, auctor omnium,
In hoc Paschali gaudio
Ab omni mortis impetu
Tuum defende populum.
Gloria tibi, Domine,
Qui surrexisti a mortuis;
cuм Patre, Sancto Spiritu,
In sempiterna saecula.
Amen.
Which roughly translated means;
This is the true God
Who had been the light,
Which dilutes the blood is sacred
Indecent world:
Faith back what it lost,
Coecosque illuminating vision,
Where we are serious fears,
Bandit absolution.
The money changing cross,
Jesus soon gained the faith:
Justoque shorter step
Arrived in the kingdom of God.
This need gawk Angels
When physical punishment;
Guilty of adhering to Christ
Happy life they contain.
Wonderful mystery!
To wash the world plague
Take away the sins of all
Cleansing the flesh is flesh.
What can this sublime,
Asks Grace to blame?
Hover pay charity,
Death impart new life?
Hook to devour death,
And her tie knots?
Die life,
He, of all life?
While death is all over,
All dead?
Spent his death blow,
Mainly due to mourn alone?
Please, adviser,
In this Easter joy
From all of death
Defend your people.
Glory to you,
Who rose from the dead;
When, in the Holy Spirit,
Eternally.
Amen.

Chapter Hymn Verse {from the Proper of the season}
1 John 5:4
My beloved: For whatsoever is born of God, overcometh the world: and this is the victory which overcometh the world, our faith.
R. Thanks be to God.
Hymn
At the Lamb’s high feast we sing
Praise to our victorious King,
Who hath washed us in the tide
Flowing from his piercèd side.
Praise we him whose love divine
Gives the guests his blood for wine,
Gives his body for the feast,
Love the victim, love the priest.
Where the paschal blood is poured,
Death’s dark angel sheathes his sword;
Israel’s hosts triumphant go
Through the wave that drowns the foe.
Christ, the Lamb whose blood was shed,
Paschal victim, paschal bread;
With sincerity and love
Eat we manna from above.
Mighty victim from the sky,
Powers of hell beneath thee lie;
Death is conquered in the fight;
Thou hast brought us life and light.
Now thy banner thou dost wave;
Vanquished Satan and the grave;
Angels join his praise to tell —
See o’erthrown the prince of hell.
Paschal triumph, paschal joy,
Only sin can this destroy;
From the death of sin set free,
Souls re-born, dear Lord, in Thee.
Hymns of glory, songs of praise,
Father, unto Thee we raise;
Risen Lord, all praise to Thee,
Ever with the Spirit be
Amen.
V. Stay with us, O Lord, alleluia.
R. Because it is towards evening, alleluia.

Low Sunday-The Octave of Easter
-
Laudes
Hymn
The morn had spread her crimson rays,
When rang the skies with shouts of praise;
Earth joined the joyful hymn to swell,
That brought despair to vanquished hell.
He comes victorious from the grave,
The Lord omnipotent to save,
And brings with him to light of day
The saints who long imprisoned lay.
Vain is the cavern’s three-fold ward —
The stone, the seal, the armed guard;
O death, no more thine arm we fear,
The Victor’s tomb is now thy bier.
Let hymns of joy to grief succeed,
We know that Christ is risen indeed;
We hear his white-robed angel’s voice,
And in our risen Lord rejoice.
With Christ we died, with Christ we rose,
When at the font his name we chose;
Oh, let not sin our robes defile,
And turn to grief the paschal smile.
Hymns of glory, songs of praise,
Father, unto Thee we raise;
Risen Lord, all praise to Thee,
Ever with the Spirit be
Amen.
V. In thy Resurrection, O Christ, alleluia.
R. Let the heavens and earth be glad, alleluia.

Agno sedenti supra Thronum in coelis;
cuм Patre regnat, et cuм Sancto Spiritu,
Connexa simul tribus una Deitas,
Per infinita saeculorum saecula.
Amen.
Which roughly translated means;
You hundreds of thousands of angels
In harmony, hug, in a melodious cry out,
Jesus Christ, the Alpha and the Omega, the Almighty,
He was buried in the past, and he shall live for ever,
The faithful witness, and the truth of the principle.
He cast the prince of this world,
Buys sphere of your Holy Blood;
Holy and true upto talent
Unlocking the closed and open obstruens,
Making God a kingdom of priests.
You alone are the true Lamb without blemish,
Who's right hand placed on a seat,
Out alone from the fortress Sunday,
It is like a jasper and a sardine stone,
By means of the circle of the iris, and a carbuncle circuit.
You are a pledge of God, Son of man,
Seven times book sealed seals
Loosen standards worthy art:
Lamb slain seven powerful horns,
Seven bright light and flaming.
Out of the throne come forth lightnings, and thunders,
Seven lamps burning before the throne,
Seven of the masses,
Seven stars twinkle Lamb right,
Whom stands seven candlesticks.
Sitting around a four sixes Primates
Dressed all in snowy Cyclades,
And the golden laurel crown,
Mounts golden bowls of spices,
Of gold, chant the rhythm, and with harps.
Standing in front of the throne a sea of glass is shining,
Twice two kinds of mighty men, the same as the animals:
It is through these kind of, resounds the voice of a lion,
Prom juvencus mouth priesthood
In seeking to stars more flying eagle.
Former Senior four wings each,
All things are full of eyes in front and in back,
Always awake sleeping unawares
Conversely holy three times crying constantly,
They, who was, is, and who is to come.
Glory, glory, wisdom
To the Lamb, as he sat on the throne in the heavens;
Reigns with the Father, and with the Holy Spirit,
Connected together three one Deity,
Forever and ever.
Amen.

Here is another hymn from the Mozarabic rite on the second Sunday of Easter;
Hic est dies verus Dei
Sancto serenus lumine,
Quo diluit sanguis sacer
Probrosa mundi crimina:
Fidem refundens perditis,
Coecosque visu illuminans,
Quo nos gravi solvit metu,
Latronis absolutio.
Qui praemio mutans crucem,
Jesu brevi adquisivit fidem:
Justoque brevior gradu
Pervenit in regnum Dei.
Hoc opus stupent Angeli,
Poenam videntes corporis;
Christoque adhaerentem reum
Vitam beatam capere.
Mysterium mirabile!
Ut abluat mundi luem,
Peccata tollat omnium
Carnis vitia mundans caro.
Quid hoc potest sublimius,
Ut culpam quaerat gratia?
Metumque solvat charitas,
Reddatque mors vitam novam?
Hamum sibi mors devoret,
Suisque se nodis liget?
Moriatur Vita hominum,
Resurgat Vita omnium?
Dum mors per omnes transeat,
Omnes resurgant mortui?
Consumpta mors ictu suo,
Perisse se solam gemat?
Quaesumus, auctor omnium,
In hoc Paschali gaudio
Ab omni mortis impetu
Tuum defende populum.
Gloria tibi, Domine,
Qui surrexisti a mortuis;
cuм Patre, Sancto Spiritu,
In sempiterna saecula.
Amen.
Which roughly translatedd means;
This is the true God
Who had been the light,
Which dilutes the blood is sacred
Indecent world:
Faith back what it lost,
Coecosque illuminating vision,
Where we are serious fears,
Bandit absolution.
The money changing cross,
Jesus soon gained the faith:
Justoque shorter step
Arrived in the kingdom of God.
This need gawk Angels
When physical punishment;
Guilty of adhering to Christ
Happy life they contain.
Wonderful mystery!
To wash the world plague
Take away the sins of all
Cleansing the flesh is flesh.
What can this sublime,
Asks Grace to blame?
Hover pay charity,
Death impart new life?
Hook to devour death,
And her tie knots?
Die life,
He, of all life?
While death is all over,
All dead?
Spent his death blow,
Mainly due to mourn alone?
Please, adviser,
In this Easter joy
From all of death
Defend your people.
Glory to you,
Who rose from the dead;
When, in the Holy Spirit,
Eternally.
Amen.

Poche, no offense intended, but have you considered collecting the Mozarabic Hymnes in a thread of their own? I imagine there is a wealth of them. Perhaps in the Library Section.

P.S. Just in case you didn't notice, this last hymn was already posted by you for Easter Sunday. No big deal, but I thought you might want to know. Repetition is not uncommon in the Breviary.

Poche, I know you are good intentioned, but "You hundreds of thousands of Angels" has been posted twice as well. I usually check hymnes over to avoid a double post. Thought you would have noticed since you include a "rough translation". That's how I noticed it. Beautiful hymnes, though.

The Mozarabic rite is a traditional rite of the Catholic Church. Not much current information is available about this rite in English. I hope to bring about a greater appretiation of the beauty of the richness that is in the tradition of the Catholic Church.

Hymn {from the Psalter for the season of the Church year}
O thou, the heavens' eternal King,
Creator, unto thee we sing,
With God the Father ever One,
Co-equal, co-eternal Son.
Thy hand, when first the world began,
Made in thine own pure image man,
And linked to Adam, sprung from earth,
A living soul of heavenly birth.
And when by craft the envious foe
Had marred thy noblest work below,
Clothed in our flesh, thou didst restore
The image thou hadst made before.
Once wast thou born of Mary's womb;
And now, new-born from out the tomb,
O Christ, thou bidd'st us rise with thee
From death to immortality.
Eternal Shepherd, thou dost lave
Thy flock in pure baptismal wave,
That mystic bath, that grave of sin,
Where ransomed souls new life begin.
Redeemer, thou for us didst deign
To hang upon the Cross of pain,
And give for us the lavish price
Of thine own blood in sacrifice.
Grant, Lord, in thee each faithful mind
Unceasing paschal joy may find;
And from the death of sin set free
Souls newly born to life by thee.
To thee, once dead, who now dost live,
All glory, Lord, thy people give,
Whom, with the Father, we adore,
And Holy Ghost forevermore.
Amen.

Continuation + of the Holy Gospel according to John
John 16:16-22
In that time: Jesus said to his disciples: A little while, and now you shall not see me; and again a little while, and you shall see me: because I go to the Father. Then some of the disciples said one to another: What is this that he saith to us: A little while, and you shall not see me; and again a little while, and you shall see me, and, because I go to the Father? They said therefore: What is this that he saith, A little while? we know not what he speaketh. And Jesus knew that they had a mind to ask him; and he said to them: Of this do you inquire among yourselves, because I said: A little while, and you shall not see me; and again a little while, and you shall see me? Amen, amen I say to you, that you shall lament and weep, but the world shall rejoice; and you shall be made sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy. A woman, when she is in labour, hath sorrow, because her hour is come; but when she hath brought forth the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world. So also you now indeed have sorrow; but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice; and your joy no man shall take from you.
R. Praise be to Thee, O Christ.

Lesson from the book of Revelations
Rev 1:1-6
1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to make known to his servants the things which must shortly come to pass: and signified, sending by his angel to his servant John, who hath given testimony to the word of God, and the testimony of Jesus Christ, what things soever he hath seen.
3 Blessed is he, that readeth and heareth the words of this prophecy; and keepeth those things which are written in it; for the time is at hand.
4 John to the seven churches which are in Asia. Grace be unto you and peace from him that is, and that was, and that is to come, and from the seven spirits which are before his throne,
5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth, who hath loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
6 And hath made us a kingdom, and priests to God and his Father, to him be glory and empire for ever and ever. Amen.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R. Thanks be to God.
R. Thou art worthy, O Lord, to take the book, and to open the seals thereof; alleluia: because thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God,
* In thy blood, alleluia.
V. And hast made us to our God a kingdom and priests.
R. In thy blood, alleluia.

11 Saying: What thou seest, write in a book, and send to the seven churches which are in Asia, to Ephesus, and to Smyrna, and to Pergamus, and to Thyatira, and to Sardis, and to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.

Rev 1:12-19
12 And I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks:
13 And in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks, one like to the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the feet, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
14 And his head and his hairs were white, as white wool, and as snow, and his eyes were as a flame of fire,
15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as in a burning furnace. And his voice as the sound of many waters.
16 And he had in his right hand seven stars. And from his mouth came out a sharp two edged sword: and his face was as the sun shineth in his power.
17 And when I had seen him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying: Fear not. I am the First and the Last,
18 And alive, and was dead, and behold I am living for ever and ever, and have the keys of death and of hell.
19 Write therefore the things which thou hast seen, and which are, and which must be done hereafter.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R. Thanks be to God.
R. And I heard a voice from heaven, the voice of great thunder, alleluia: the Lord our God shall reign for ever, alleluia:
* Now is come salvation, and strength, and the power of his Christ, alleluia, alleluia.
V. And a voice came out from the throne, saying: Give praise to our God, all saints of Him that fear him, little and great.
R. Now is come salvation, and strength, and the power of his Christ, alleluia, alleluia.
V. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
R. Now is come salvation, and strength, and the power
