4 At a High (Sung) Mass, stand as the Celebrant ascends to the altar, saying silently. Aufer a nobis, quǽsumus, Dómine, iniquitátes nostras: ut ad Sancta sanctórum puris mereámur méntibus introíre. Per Christum Dóminum nostrum. Amen. Take away from us our iniquities, we beseech Thee, O Lord, that we may be worthy to enter with pure minds into the Holy of Holies. Through Christ our Lord. Amen. The Celebrant bows down to kiss the Altar-stone containing the Relics: Orámus te, Dómine, per mérita Sanctórum We beseech Thee, O Lord, by the merits of tuórum, quórum relíquiæ hic sunt, et Thy Saints whose relics lie here, and of all ómnium Sanctórum: ut indúlgere dignéris the Saints, deign in Thy mercy to pardon ómnia peccáta mea. Amen. me all my sins. Amen. The master of ceremonies offers a vessel containing incense to the Celebrant, saying: Benedícite. Pater reverénde. Reverend Father, pray bless this incense. He blesses the incense, then he incenses the Crucifix, Relics, and Altar. Ab illo bene dicáris in cuius honóre Thou art blessed by Him, in whose honor, cremáberis. thou shalt burn. The Celebrant goes to the Epistle side where he is incensed by the Master of Ceremonies. He turns toward the Altar Missal, makes the sign of the cross and recites both the Introit and the Kýrie, which the Schola had begun singing during the Prayers at the Foot of the Altar. THE INTROIT + Lætáre, Ierúsalem: et convéntum fácite, + Rejoice, O Jerusalem: and come omnes qui dilígitis eam: gaudéte cum together all you that love her: rejoice lætítia, qui in tristítia fuístis: ut exsultétis, et with joy, you that have been in sorrow: that satiémini ab ubéribus consolatiónis vestræ. you may exult, and be filled from the breasts Psalm.

5 THE COLLECT He turns towards the Congregation and chants: V. Dóminus vobíscum. Please Rise. V. The Lord be with you. Please Rise. R. Et cum spíritu tuo. R. And with your spirit. The Celebrant goes to Epistle side, facing the Altar, and continues chanting. Oremus. Let us pray. C o ncéde, quǽsumus, omnípotens Deus: Grant, we beseech Thee, almighty God, ut, qui ex mérito nostræ actiónis that we who justly suffer for our afflígimur, tuæ grátiæ consolatióne deeds, may be relieved by the consolation respirémus. Per Dóminum nostrum Iesum of Thy grace. Through our Lord Jesus Christum Fílium tuum, qui tecum vivit et Christ, Thy Son, Who lives and reigns regnat in unitáte Spíritus Sancti, Deus, per with Thee, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, ómnia sǽcula sæculórum. R. Amen. who is God, world without end. R. Amen. When he is finished chanting The Collect, above, please sit. Léctio Epístolæ beáte Pauli ad Gálatas: Fratres: Scriptum est: Quóniam Ábraham duos fílios hábuit: unum de ancílla, et unum de líbera. Sed qui de ancílla, secúndum carnem natus est: qui autem de líbera, per repromissiónem: quæ sunt per allegóriam dicta. Hæc enim sunt duo testaménta. Unum quidem in monte Sina, in servitútem génerans: quæ est Agar: Sina enim mons est in Arábia, qui coniúnctus est ei, quæ nunc est Ierúsalem, et servit cum fíliis suis. Illa autem, quæ sursum est Ierúsalem, líbera est, quæ est mater nostra. Scriptum est enim: Lætáre, stérilis, quæ non paris: erúmpe, et clama, quæ non párturis: quia multi fílii desértæ, magis quam eius, quæ habet virum. Nos autem, fratres, secúndum Ísaac promissiónis fílii sumus. Sed quómodo tunc is, qui secúndum carnem natus fúerat, persequebátur eum, qui secúndum spíritum: ita et nunc. Sed quid THE EPISTLE Intoned by the Celebrant. Letter from blessed Paul to the Galatians: Brethren: It is written that Abraham had two sons; the one by a bondwoman and the other by a free woman, But he who was of the bondwoman was born according to the flesh; but he of the free woman was by promise: which things are said by an allegory. For these are the two testaments. The one from Mount Sinai, engendering unto bondage: which is Agar: for Sinai is a mountain in Arabia, which has affinity to that Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children. But that Jerusalem which is above, is free, which is our mother. For it is written: Rejoice, thou barren that bearest not: break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: for many are the children of the desolate, more than of her that has a husband. Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise. But as then he that was born according to the flesh, persecuted him that was after the spirit: So also it is now. But what 029Mass Page 5 of 24

6 dicit Scriptúra? Éice ancíllam et fílium eius: says the Scripture? Cast out the bondwoman non enim heres erit fílius ancíllæ cum fílio and her son: for the son of the bondwoman líberæ. Ítaque, fratres, non sumus ancíllæ shall not be heir with the son of the free fílii, sed líberæ: qua libertáte Christus nos woman. So then, brethren, we are not the liberávit. R. Deo grátias. children of the bondwoman but of the free: by the freedom wherewith Christ has made us free. R. Thanks be to God. THE GRADUAL Quietly by the Celebrant; chanted by the Schola immediately after the Epistle. Lætátus sum in his, quæ dicta sunt mihi: in I rejoiced at the things said to me: we shall go domum Dómini íbimus. R. Fiat pax in virtúte into the house of the Lord. V. Let peace be in tua: et abundántia in túrribus tuis. Thy strength: and abundance in Thy towers. THE TRACT During Lent, the Allelúia Prayer is replaced by the Tract. Qui confídunt in Dómino, sicut mons Sion: non commovébitur in ætérnum, qui hábitat in Ierúsalem. V. Montes in circúitu eius: et Dóminus in circúitu pópuli sui, ex hoc nunc et usque in sǽculum. They that trust in the Lord shall be as Mount Sion: he shall not be moved for ever that dwelleth in Jerusalem. V. Mountains are round about it so the Lord is round about His people, from henceforth now and forever. The Book is now moved to the other (Gospel) side. MUNDA COR MEUM Silently by the Priest at the Tabernacle, while the Schola finishes the Gradual and Alleluia. Munda cor meum ac lábia mea, omnípotens Deus, qui lábia Isaíæ prophétæ cálculo mundásti igníto: ita me tua grata miseriatióne dignáre mundáre, ut sanctum Evangélium tuum digne váleam nuntiáre, Per Christum Dóminum nostrum. R. Amen. Cleanse my heart and my lips, O God almighty, Who cleansed the lips of the Prophet Isaiah with a burning coal; and through Thy gracious mercy, purify me that I may worthily proclaim Thy holy Gospel. Through Christ our Lord. R. Amen. The servers go in procession, with lights and incense, to the place where the Gospel is to be sung. THE GOSPEL +Continuation of the Gospel according to St. John, 6, The Book is incensed thrice; the same level of honor applied to the Lord God Himself. V. Dóminus vóbiscum. V. The Lord be with you. R. Et cum spíritu tuo. + Sequéntia Sancte Evangélium Secúndum Ioánnum. V. Glória Tibi, Dómine. Please stand. R. And with your spirit. + Continuation of the holy Gospel according to St. John. V. Glory be to You, O Lord. 029Mass Page 6 of 24

7 When the Celebrant makes the Sign of the Cross upon the book, Please cross yourself on forehead, lips, and breast. In illo témpore: Ábiit Iesus trans mare Galilǽæ, quod est Tiberíadis: et sequebátur eum multitúdo magna, quia vidébant signa, quæ faciébat super his, qui infirmabántur. Súbiit ergo in montem Iesus: et ibi sedébat cum discípulis suis. Erat autem próximum Pascha, dies festus Iudæórum, Cum sublevásset ergo óculos Iesus, et vidísset quia multitúdo máxima venit ad eum, dixit ad Philíppum: Unde emémus panes, ut mandúcent hi? Hoc autem dicébat tentans eum: ipse enim sciébat quid esset factúrus. Respóndit ei Philíppus: Ducentórum denariórum panes non suffíciunt eis, ut unusquísque módicum quid accípiat. Dicit ei unus ex discípulis eius, Andréas, frater Simónis Petri: Est puer unus hic, qui habet quinque panes hordeáceos, et duos pisces: sed hæc quid sunt inter tantos? Dixit ergo Iesus: Fácite hómines discúmbere. Erat autem fœnum multum in loco. Discubuérunt ergo viri, número quasi quinque mília. Accépit ergo Iesus panes, et cum grátias egísset, distríbuit discumbéntibus: simíliter et ex píscibus quantum volébant. Ut autem impléti sunt, dixit discípulis suis: Collígite quæ superavérunt fragménta, ne péreant. Collegérunt ergo, et implevérunt duódecim cóphinos fragmentórum ex quinque pánibus hordeáceis, quæ superfuérunt his, qui manducavérant. Illi ergo hómines cum vidíssent, quod Iesus fécerat signum, dicébant: Quia hic est vere Prophéta, qui ventúrus est in mundum. Iesus ergo cum cognovísset, quia ventúri essent ut ráperent eum, et fácerent eum regem, fugit íterum in montem ipse solus. At that time Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is that of Tiberias: and a great multitude followed Him, because they saw the miracle which He did on them that were diseased. Jesus therefore went up into a mountain and there He sat with His disciples. Now the pasch, the festival day of the Jews, was near at hand. When Jesus therefore had lifted up His eyes, and saw that a very great multitude had come to Him, He said to Philip: Whence shall we buy bread that these may eat? And this He said to try him: for He Himself knew what He would do. Philip answered Him: Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one may take a little. One of His disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, said to Him: There is a boy that has five barley loaves and two fishes; but what are these among so many? Then Jesus said: Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. The men therefore sat down, in number about five thousand. And Jesus took the loaves, and when He had given thanks, He distributed to them that were set down: in like manner also of the fishes, as much as they would. And when they were filled, He said to His disciples: Gather up the fragments that remain, lest they be lost. They gathered up therefore, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves which remained over and above to them that had eaten. Now those men, when they had seen what a miracle Jesus had done, said: This is of a truth the Prophet that is to come into the world. Jesus therefore when He knew that they would come to take Him by force and make Him king, fled again into the mountain, Himself 029Mass Page 7 of 24

(Quietly) May our sins be blotted out by the words of the Gospel. THE CREDO The Celebrant returns to the middle of the altar to sing the Creed, singing only the first four Latin words, All will stand as the celebrant rises and returns to the center of the altar at the sung Credo s end. Please Stand Credo in unum Deum, I believe in one God, The chant is taken up by the choir; the Celebrant continues it in a low voice. Patrem omnipoténtem, factórem cœli et the Father almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, terræ, visibílium ómnium, et invisibílium. Et and of all things, visible and invisible.

V. The Lord be with you. Please rise. R. And with your spirit. Turns to the Altar. Let us pray. Praise ye the Lord, for He is good: sing ye to His name, for He is sweet: whatsoever He pleased, He has done in heaven and on earth. THE OFFERING OF THE BREAD AND WINE From now, the more solemn part of the Mass begins; largely quiet. He takes the Paten with the host, which he offers up with raised hands. Súscipe, sancte Pater, omnípotens ætérne Deus, hanc immaculátam hóstiam, quam ego indígnus fámulus tuus óffero tibi Deo meo vivo et vero, pro innumerabílibus peccátis, et offensiónibus, et neglegéntiis meis, et pro ómnibus circumstántibus, sed et pro ómnibus fidélibus christiánis vivis atque defúnctis: ut mihi et illis profíciat ad salútem in vitam ætérnam. Amen. Receive, O holy Father, almighty and eternal God, this spotless host, which I, Thine unworthy servant, offer unto Thee, my living and true God, for my countless sins, trespasses, and omissions, likewise for all here present: and for all faithful Christians, whether living or dead; that it may avail both me and them unto salvation and life everlasting. Amen. Moving to the Epistle side, he now pours water and wine into the Chalice. He blesses the water: Deus, OGod, qui humánæ substántiæ dignitátem mirabíliter condidísti, et mirabílius reformásti: da nobis, per huius áquæ et vini mystérium, eius divinitátis esse consórtes, qui humanitátis nostræ fíeri dignátus est párticeps, Iesus Christus, Fílius tuus, Dóminus noster: Qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitáte Spíritus Sancti Deus: per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum. Amen. who, in creating man exalted his nature very wonderfully, and yet even more wonderfully established it anew, by the Mystery of this water and wine, grant that we may become partakers of His Divinity, Who humbled Himself to partake of our humanity: Jesus Christ Thy Son, our Lord, who with Thee lives and reigns in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God: world without end. Amen. The Celebrant returns to the middle of the altar and offers up the Chalice: saying: O fférimus tibi, Dómine, cálicem salutáris, We offer Thee, Lord, the Chalice of Salvation, tuam deprecántes cleméntiam: ut in entreating Thy mercy that our offering may conspéctu divínæ maiestátis tuæ, pro nostra ascend as a sweet fragrance in the presence of et tótius mundi salúte, cum odóre suavitátis Thy Divine Majesty for our salvation and that of ascéndat. Amen. the whole world. Amen. 029Mass Page 9 of 24

10 Bowing slightly, he says: In spíritu humilitátis et in ánimo contríto Humbled in mind and contrite of heart, suscipiámur a te, Dómine: et sic fiat may we find favor with You, O Lord, sacrifícium nostrum in conspéctu tuo hódie, and may the sacrifice we this day offer up be ut pláceat tibi, Dómine Deus. well pleasing to You, O Lord God. He stands erect and invokes the Holy Spirit, making the sign of the cross over the bread and wine. Veni, sanctificátor omnípotens ætérne Deus: et bénedic hoc sacrifícium, tuo sancto nómini præparátum. Come, Thou the Sanctifier, almighty and eternal God, bless this Sacrifice, which is prepared for the glory of Thy holy Name. INCENSING OF THE OFFERINGS AT HIGH MASS He puts three spoonsfull of incense into the Thurible and blesses it, saying: Per intercessiónem beáti Michaélis Archángeli, May the Lord, by the intercession of blessed stantis a dextris altáris incénsi, et ómnium electórum suórum, incénsum istud dignétur Dóminus side of the altar of incense, and of all His elect, Michael the Archangel, who stands at the right bene dícere, et in odórum suavitátis accípere. ble ss this incense and receive it as a fragrance Per Christum Dóminum nostrum. Amen. of sweetness: through Christ our Lord. Amen. He takes the Thurible from the Master of Ceremonies, and censes the bread and wine saying: Incénsum istud a te benedíctum ascéndat ad te, Dómine: et descéndat super nos misericórdia tua. May this incense, which Thou has blessed, O Lord, ascend to Thee, and may Thy mercy descend upon us. Then the Celebrant incenses the altar, saying Psalm : Dirigátur, Dómine, orátio mea, sicut incénsum in conspéctu tuo: elevátio mánuum meárum sacrifícium vespertínum. Pone, Dómine, custódiam ori meo, et óstium circumstántiæ lábiis meis. Ut non declínet cor meum in verbo malítiæ, et excusándas excusatiónes in peccátis. Let my prayer, O Lord, be directed as incense in Thy sight: the lifting up of my hands as an evening sacrifice. Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth, and a door around my lips. Incline not my heart to evil words: to make excuses in sins. He returns the Thurible to the Master of Ceremonies, saying: Accéndat in nobis Dóminus ignem sui amóris. At flammam ætérnæ caritátis. May the Lord kindle within us the fire of His love. And the flame of undying charity. The Celebrant, followed by the Servers, are censed by the Master of Ceremonies; The Congregation stands and bows to the Thurifer before and after being censed by him. Afterwards, be seated. Meanwhile, the Celebrant washes his hands, and recites Psalm : THE LAVABO Lavábo inter innocéntes manus meas: et circúmdabo altáre tuum, Dómine: Ut áudiam I will wash my hands among the innocent: and I will walk around Thine altar, O Lord.

Take not away my soul, O God, viris sánguinum vitam meam: In quórum with the wicked: nor my life by bloody men.

Amen. ever shall be, forever and ever. R. Amen. Bowing slightly, the Celebrant continues: PRAYER TO THE MOST HOLY TRINITY Súscipe, sancta Trínitas, hanc oblatiónem, quam tibi offérimus ob memóriam passiónis, resurrectiónis et ascensiónis Iesu Christi Dómini nostri: et in honórem beátæ Maríæ semper Vírginis, et beáti Ioánnis Baptístæ, et sanctórum Apostolórum Petri et Pauli, et istórum, et ómnium Sanctórum: ut illis profíciat ad honórem, nobis autem ad salútem: et illi pro nobis intercédere dignéntur in cœlis, quórum memóriam ágimus in terris.

Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen. The Celebrant asks the people for their prayers. Turning towards them he says the first two Latin words aloud. V. Oráte, fratres: then again facing the altar. ut meum ac vestrum sacrifícium acceptábile fiat apud Deum Patrem omnipoténtem. R. Suscípiat Dóminus sacrifícium de mánibus tuis ad laudem et glóriam nóminis sui, ad utilitátem quoque nostram, totiúsque Ecclésiæ suae sanctæ. Sacérdos (Secréto): Amen. V. Bethren, pray then again facing the altar. that my Sacrifice and yours may be acceptable to God the Father Almighty. R. May the Lord receive the Sacrifice from your hands, to the praise and glory of His Name, to our benefit, and that of all His holy Church. The Priest answers in a low voice: Amen. 029Mass Page 11 of 24

12 THE SECRET PRAYER Sacrifíciis præséntibus, Dómine, Look favorably upon these present Sacrifices, quǽsumus, inténde placátus: ut et we beseech Thee, O Lord, that they may profit devotióni nostræ profíciant, et salúti. Per us unto both devotion and salvation, Through Dóminum nostrum Iesum Christum Fílium our Lord Jesus Christ, thy Son, living and tuum, qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitáte reigning with Thee, in the unity of the Holy Spíritus Sancti, Deus, Spirit, one God, Per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum. R. Amen. Please rise when the celebrant sings: Per ómnia For ever and ever. R. Amen. THE PREFACE The Celebrant, with hands laid upon the altar, chants: V. Dóminus vobíscum. R. Et cum Spíritu tuo. He raises his hands. V. Sursum corda. R. Habémus ad Dóminum. He joins his hands. V. Grátias agámus, Dómino Deo nostro. R. Dignum et iustum est. Vere dignum et iustum est, æquum et salutáre, nos tibi semper et ubíque grátias ágere: Dómine, sancte Pater, omnípotens ætérne Deus: Qui corporáli ieiúnio vítia cómprimis, mentem élevas, virtútem largíris et prǽmia: per Christum Dóminum nostrum. Per quem maiestátem tuam laudant Ángeli, adórant Dominatiónes, tremunt Potestátes. Cœli cœlorúmque Virtútes, ac beáta Séraphim, sócia exsultatióne concélebrant.

We have lifted them up to the Lord. V. Let us give thanks to the Lord our God. R. It is right and just. Just it is indeed and fitting, right, and for our lasting good, that we should always and everywhere give thanks to Thee, Lord, holy Father, almighty and eternal God; for by this bodily fasting Thou dost curb vice and uplift the mind, bestowing upon us virtue and its rewards, through Christ our Lord. It is through Him that Thy majesty is praised by Angels, adored by Dominations, feared by Powers; through Him that the heavens and the celestial Virtues join with the blessed Seraphim in one glad hymn of praise. We pray Thee let our voices blend with theirs, as we humbly praise Thee, singing: Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of hosts. Heaven and earth are full of Thy glory. Hosanna in the highest! Blessed is He who 029Mass Page 12 of 24

The Consecration Candle is placed upon the right side of the altar to announce the imminent arrival of the Son of God, the Second Person of the Holy Trinity. THE CANON OF THE MASS The Celebrant bows low, kisses the Altar, asks God through Jesus Christ to accept our offerings. Te ígitur, clementíssime Pater, per Iesum Christum Fílium tuum Dóminum nostrum, súpplíces rogámus, ac pétimus uti accépta hábeas et benedícas, hæc dona, hæc múnera, hæc sancta sacrifícia illibáta, in primis, quæ tibi offérimus pro Ecclésia tua sancta cathólica: quam pacificáre, custodíre, adunáre et régere dignéris toto orbe terrárum: una cum fámulo tuo Papa nostro, Francísco, et Antístite nostro Salvatóre, et ómnibus orthodóxis, atque cathólicæ, et apostólicæ fídei cultóribus. Commemoration of the Church Militant The Church on earth, essentially us. To Thee, therefore, we humbly pray and beseech Thee, most merciful Father, through Jesus Christ, Thy Son, our Lord, that Thou would accept and bless these gifts, these presents, these holy spotless sacrifices, which in the first place, we offer up to Thee for Thy holy Catholic Church, that it may please Thee to grant her peace, to protect, unite, and govern her throughout the world, together with Thy servant Francis our Pope, and Salvatore our Archbishop, and all true believers and professors of the Catholic and Apostolic Faith. Meménto, Dómine, famulórum famularúmque tuárum, N. et N., Be mindful, O Lord, of Thy servants and handmaids, N. and N., (Here the Celebrant makes silent mention of those for whom he wishes to pray) ómnium circumstántium, quórum tibi fides cógnita est, et nota devótio, pro quibus tibi offérimus: vel qui tibi ófferunt hoc sacrifícium laudis, pro se, suísque ómnibus: pro redemptióne animárum suárum pro spe salútis, et incolumitátis suæ: tíbique reddunt vota sua ætérno Deo, vivo et vero. and of all here present, whose faith and devotion are known unto Thee, for whom we offer or who offer up to Thee this sacrifice of praise for themselves, their families and friends, for the redemption of their souls, for the health and salvation they hope for, and for which they now pay their vows to Thee, the eternal, living and true God. 029Mass Page 13 of 24

14 Commemoration of the Church Triumphant (those already in heaven) In Communicántes et memóriam venerántes, in primis gloriósæ semper Vírginis Maríæ, Genitrícis Dei et Dómini nostri Iesu Christi: sed et beáti Ióseph, eiúsdem Vírginis Sponsi, et beatórum Apostolórum ac Martýrum tuórum, Apostles: Petri et Pauli, Andréæ, Iacóbi, Ioánnis, Thomæ, Iacóbi, Philíppi, Bartholomǽi, Matthǽi, Simónis et Thaddǽi, Popes: Lini, Cleti, Cleméntis, Xysti, Cornélii, Martyrs especially venerated in Rome: Cypriáni, Lauréntii, Chrysógoni, Ioánnis et Pauli, Cosmæ et Damiáni: et ómnium Sanctórum tuórum; quórum méritis, precibúsque concédas, ut in ómnibus protectiónis tuæ muniámur auxílio. Per eúndem Christum Dóminum nostrum. Amen. communion with and honoring, in the first place, the memory of the glorious ever Virgin Mary, Mother of our Lord and God, Jesus Christ; blessed Joseph her virginal spouse, and also of the blessed Apostles and Martyrs, Apostles: Peter and Paul, Andrew, James, John, Thomas, James, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Simon and Thaddeus, Popes: Linus, Cletus, Clement, Sixtus, Cornelius, Martyrs especially venerated in Rome: Cyprian, Lawrence, Chrysogonus, John and Paul, Cosmas and Damian, and of all Thy saints; through whose merits and prayers grant that we may be always defended by the help of Thy protection. Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen. The Celebrant extends his hands over the bread and wine; the bell rings once: Hanc ígitur oblatiónem servitútis nostræ, Therefore, we beseech Thee, O Lord, sed et cunctæ famíliæ tuæ, quǽsumus graciously to accept this oblation of our Dómine, ut placátus accípias: diésque servitude, as also of Thy whole family; and nostros in tua pace dispónas, atque ab ætérna to dispose our days in Thy peace, preserve damnatióne nos éripi et in electórum tuórum us from eternal damnation, and count us in iúbeas grege numerári. Per Christum Dóminum the number of Thine elect. Through Christ nostrum. Amen. our Lord. Amen. The Celebrant makes five signs of the Cross over the bread and wine, praying that they may become the Body and Blood of Christ. Quam Which oblatiónem Tu Deus in ómnibus, quǽsumus, bene díctam, adscríp tam, ra tam, rationábilem, acceptabilerúmque fácere dignéris; ut nobis Cor pus, et San guis fiat dilectíssimi Fílii tui Dómini nostri Iesu Christi. oblation do Thou, O God, in all respects to make blessed, approved, ratified, reasonable and acceptable; that it may be made for us the Body and Blood of Thy most beloved Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. The Celebrant has now reached the most solemn moment of the Mass. Obedient to Our Lord's command, he re-enacts the Last Supper. 029Mass Page 14 of 24

15 Qui prídie quam paterétur, accépit panem in sanctas, ac venerábiles manus suas, et elevátis óculis in cœlum ad te Deum Patrem suum omnipoténtem, tibi grátias agens, bene díxit, fregit, dedítque discípulis suis, dicens: Accípite, et manducáte ex hoc omnes: HOC EST ENIM CORPUS MEUM. THE CONSECRATION The Consecration of the Host. Who the day before He suffered took bread into His holy and venerable hands, and with His eyes lifted up toward heaven, giving thanks to Thee, Almighty God, His Father, He blessed It, broke It, and gave It to His disciples, saying: Take and eat ye all of this: FOR THIS IS MY BODY The bell is rung thrice and the Celebrant, genuflecting, adores. We may contemplate the profound mystical Sacrifice that has just taken place. He genuflects again, uncovers the Chalice and continues: The Consecration of the Wine. Símili modo postquam cœnátum est, accípiens et hunc præclárum Cálicem in sanctas, ac venerábiles manus suas: item tibi grátias agens, bene díxit, 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. In like manner, after He had supped, taking this precious Chalice into His holy and venerable hands, giving Thee also thanks, He blessed 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 you do these things, do them in remembrance of Me. The Celebrant genuflects and adores the Precious Blood, then elevates It. The bell rings and the Thurifer incenses our God, thrice. Father genuflects again in adoration. 029Mass Page 15 of 24

16 U nde et mémores, Dómine, nos servi tui, sed et plebs tua sancta, eiúsdem Christi Fílii tui Dómini nostri tam beáte passiónis, nec non et ab ínferis resurrectiónis, sed et in cœlos gloriósæ ascensiónis: offérimus præcláræ maiestáti tuæ de tuis donis, ac datis, hóstiam puram, hóstiam sanctam, hóstiam immaculátam, Panem sanctum vitæ ætérnæ, et Cálicem salútis perpétuæ. Supra quæ propítio ac seréno vultu respícere dignéris: et accépta habére, sícuti accépta habére dignátus es múnera púeri tui iusti Abel, et sacrifícium Patriárchæ nostri Ábrahæ: et quod tibi óbtulit summus sacérdos tuus Melchísedech, sanctum sacrifícium, immaculátam hóstiam. He continues: W herefore, O Lord, we Thy servants, as also Thy holy people, calling to mind the blessed Passion of the same Christ Thy Son our Lord, His Resurrection from the dead and glorious Ascension into heaven, offer unto Thy most excellent Majesty, of Thy gifts bestowed upon us: a pure Host, a holy Host, a spotless Host, the Holy Bread of eternal life, and the Chal ice of everlasting salvation. Upon which vouchsafe to look with a propitious and serene countenance, and to accept them, as Thou were graciously pleased to accept the gifts of Thy just servant Abel, the sacrifice of our Patriarch Abraham, and that which Thy High Priest Melchisedech offered to Thee, a holy sacrifice, a spotless victim. Bowing low over the altar the Celebrant says: Supplíces te rogámus, omnípotens Deus: We iube hæc perférri per manus sancti Ángeli tui in sublíme altáre tuum, in conspéctu divínæ maiestátis tuæ: ut quotquot ex hac altáris participatióne sacrosánctum Fílii tui Cor pus, et Sán guinem sumpsérimus, omni benedictióne cœlésti et grátia repleámur. Per eúndem Christum Dóminum nostrum. Amen. humbly beseech Thee, almighty God, to command these things be carried by the hands of Thy holy Angel to Thine Altar on high, in the sight of Thy divine Majesty, that as many as shall partake of the Most Sacred Body and Blood of Thy Son at this Altar, may be filled with every heavenly grace and blessing. Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen. Commemoration of the Dead Meménto étiam, Dómine, famulórum, B e mindful, O Lord, of Thy servants, N. famularúmque tuárum, N. et N., and N., Here the Celebrant makes silent mention of those dead he wishes to pray for; we may too. qui nos præcessérunt cum signo fídei, et dórmiunt in somno pacis. Ipsis, Dómine, et ómnibus in Christo quiescéntibus locum refrigérii, lucis et pacis, ut indúlgeas, deprecámur. Per eúndem Christum Dóminum nostrum. Amen. who have gone before us with the sign of faith, and sleep the sleep of peace. To these, O Lord, and to all that rest in Christ, grant, we beseech Thee, a place of refreshment, light and peace; through the same Christ our Lord. Amen. 029Mass Page 16 of 24

17 Pronouncing the first three Latin words audibly, the Celebrant strikes his breast, and continues: N obis quoque peccatóribus fámulis tuis, de multitúdine miseratiónum tuárum sperántibus, partem áliquam, et societátem donáre dignéris, cum tuis sanctis Apóstolis et Martýribus: cum Ioánne, Stéphano, Matthía, Bárnaba, Ignátio, Alexándro, Marcellíno, Petro, Felicitáte, Perpétua, Ágatha, Lúcia, Agnéte, Cæcília, Anastásia, et ómnibus Sanctis tuis: intra quórum nos consórtium, non æstimátor mériti, sed véniæ quǽsumus largítor, admítte. Per Christum Dóminum nostrum. Also to us sinners, and yet Thy servants, confiding in the multitude of Thy mercies, grant some part and fellowship with Thy holy Apostles and Martyrs; with John, Stephen, Matthias, Barnabas, Ignatius, Alexander, Marcellinus, Peter, Felicity, Perpetua, Agatha, Lucy, Agnes, Cecilia, Anastasia, and with all Thy saints; into whose company we beseech Thee to admit us, not in consideration of our merit, but of Thine own gracious pardon. Through Christ our Lord. P er quem hæc ómnia, Dómine, semper bona creas, sanctí ficas, viví ficas, bene dícis, et præstas nobis. T hrough whom, O Lord, Thou always create, sanctify, quicken, bless, and give us all these good things. The Celebrant makes the sign of the cross thrice over the chalice with the sacred Host, twice between the chalice and himself, then raises the Host and the chalice slightly, saying meanwhile: Per ip sum, et cum ip so, et in ip so, est tibi Deo Patri omnipoténti, in unitáte Spíritus Sancti, omnis honor et glória. Through Him, and with Him, and in Him, is to Thee, God the Father almighty, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, every honor and glory. St. Gregory the Great ( 604) considered the Our Father as the only fitting prayer to end the Canon. THE PATER NOSTER/THE OUR FATHER V. Per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum. V. For ever and ever. All Stand. R. Amen. Orémus. Præcéptis salutáribus móniti, et divína institutióne formáti, audémus dícere: Pater noster, qui es in cœlis: Sanctificétur nomen tuum: Advéniat regnum tuum: Fiat volúntas tua, sicut in cœlo, 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. R. Sed líbera nos a malo. V. (Secréto) Amen. R. Amen. Let us pray. Taught by Thy saving precepts and guided by divine direction, we dare to say: 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. R. But deliver us from evil. V. (Silently) Amen. 029Mass Page 17 of 24

18 Please kneel Taking the paten in his right hand, he says: Líbera nos, quǽsumus, Dómine, ab Deliver us, we beseech Thee, O Lord, from ómnibus malis, prætéritis, præséntibus, et all evils, past, present and to come; and by futúris: et intercedénte beáta et gloriósa the intercession of the blessed and glorious semper Vírgine Dei Genitríce María, cum Mary, ever Virgin, Mother of God, and of Thy beátis Apóstolis tuis Petro et Paulo, atque holy Apostles Peter and Paul and Andrew, and Andréa, et ómnibus Sanctis, da propítius of all the saints, mercifully grant peace in our pacem in diébus nostris: ut ope misericórdiæ days, that through the assistance of Thy mercy tuæ adiúti, et a peccáto simus semper líberi, et we may be always free from sin, and secure ab omni perturbatióne secúri. from all disturbance. The Celebrant places the Paten under the Host, uncovers the Chalice, makes a genuflection, then taking the Host, he breaks It in the middle over the Chalice: Per eúndem Dóminum nostrum Iesum Through the same Jesus Christ Thy Son, our Christum Fílium tuum, qui tecum vivit et Lord, who lives and reigns with Thee in the regnat in unitáte Spíritus Sancti, Deus. unity of the Holy Spirit, one God. He replaces the right half of the broken Host on the Paten, and breaks ot a Particle from the other half. He places that second half also on the Paten; then, holding the Particle in his right hand over the Chalice, now held in his left, he says: V. Per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum. V. For ever and ever. R. Amen. R. Amen. The Priest makes the Sign of the Cross with the Particle over the Chalice: V. Pax Dómini sit semper vobíscum. V. The peace of the Lord be always with you. R. Et cum spíritu tuo. R. And with your spirit. He drops the Particle into the Precious Blood in the Chalice: Haec commíxtio, et consecrátio Córporis et Sánguinis Dómini nostri Iesu Christi, fiat accipiéntibus nobis in vitam ætérnam. Amen. May this mingling and consecration of the Body and Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ be to us who receive it effectual unto eternal life. Amen. AGNUS DEI The Priest repeats the words of St. John the Baptist, who thus proclaimed the Messias to the Jews. The Priest covers the Chalice, genuflects, then bowing down and striking his breast thrice, says: (Recited by the Celebrant and sung by the Schola). Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccáta mundi, miserére nobis. (x2) Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccáta mundi, dona nobis pacem. Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world, have mercy on us. (x2) Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world, grant us peace. 029Mass Page 18 of 24
