In illo témpore: Missus est Ángelus Gábriel a Deo in civitátem Galilǽæ, cui nomen Názareth, ad Vírginem desponsátam viro, cui nomen erat Ioseph, de domo David, et nomen Vírginis María. Et ingréssus Ángelus ad eam, dixit: Ave, grátia plena: Dóminus tecum: benedícta tu in muliéribus. Quæ cum audísset, turbáta est in sermóne eius, et cogitábat qualis esset ista salutátio. Et ait Ángelus ei: Ne timéas, María, invenísti enim grátiam apud Deum: ecce concípies in útero, et páries fílium, et vocábis nomen eius Iesum. Hic erit magnus, et Fílius Altíssimi vocábitur, et dabit illi Dóminus Deus sedem David patris eius: et regnábit in domo Iacob in ætérnum, et regni eius non erit finis. Dixit autem María ad Ángelum: Quómodo fiet istud, quóniam virum non cognósco? Et respóndens Ángelus dixit ei: Spíritus Sanctus supervéniet in te, et virtus Altíssimi obumbrábit tibi. Ideóque et quod nascétur ex te Sanctum, vocábitur Fílius Dei. Et ecce Elísabeth cognáta tua, et ipsa concépit fílium in senectúte sua: et hic mensis sextus est illi, quæ vocátur stérilis: quia non erit impossibile apud Deum omne verbum. Dixit autem María: Ecce ancílla Dómini, fiat mihi secúndum verbum tuum. R. Laus tibi, Christe. The Priest kisses the Gospel page in the Missal and says secretly: Per evangélica dicta deleántur nostra delícta. At that time the Angel Gabriel was sent from God into a city of Galilee, called Nazareth, to a virgin, espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David, and the virgin's name was Mary. And the Angel being come in, said unto her: Hail, full of grace: the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women. Who having heard, was troubled at his saying: and thought with herself what manner of salutation this should be. And the Angel said to her: Fear not, Mary, for thou has found grace with God: behold thou shall conceive in thy womb, and shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call His Name Jesus. He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Most High, and the Lord God shall give unto Him the throne of David His father: and He shall reign in the house of Jacob for ever, and of His kingdom there shall be no end. And Mary said to the Angel: How shall this be done, because I know not man? And the Angel answering, said to her: The Holy Spirit shall come upon thee, and the power of the Most High shall overshadow thee. And therefore also the Holy which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God. And behold thy cousin Elizabeth, she also has conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her that is called barren: because no word shall be impossible with God. And Mary said: Behold the hand-maid of the Lord, be it done to me according to thy word. R. Praise to Thee, O Christ. The Priest kisses the Gospel page in the Missal and says quitely: May our sins be blotted out by the words of 063bMass093015 Page 7 of 24

SERMON/HOMILY THE CREDO Ibelieve in one God, the Father almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and of all things, visible and invisible. And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God. Born of the Father, before all ages. God of God: Light of Light: true God of true God. Begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father, by whom all things were made. Who, for us men, and for our salvation, came down from heaven. Here kneel down. And became incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the Virgin Mary: and was made Man. Arise. He was crucified also for us, suffered under Pontius Pilate, and was buried. And the third day He rose again according to the Scriptures. And ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of the Father. And He shall come again with glory to judge both the living and the dead, of whose kingdom there shall be no end. And in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and Giver of Life, Who proceeds from the Father and the Son. Who, together with the Father and the Son, is adored and glorified: Who spoke by the prophets. And in one, holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. I confess one baptism for the remission of sins. And I look for the resurrection of the dead. And the life of the world to come. Amen.

Ut non declínet cor meum in verbo malítiæ, et excusándas excusatiónes in peccátis. Accéndat in nobis Dóminus ignem sui amóris, et flammam ætérnæ caritátis. Amen. May this incense, which Thou has blessed, O Lord, ascend to Thee, and may Thy mercy descend upon us. 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. May the Lord enkindle within us the fire of His love, and the flame of everlasting charity. Amen. Lavábo inter innocéntes manus meas: et circúmdabo altáre tuum, Dómine: Ut áudiam vocem laudis, et enárrem univérsa mirabília tua. Dómine, diléxi decórem domus tuæ, et locum habitatiónis glóriae tuæ.

In whose hands are iniquities: their right hand is filled with bribes. But as for me I have 063bMass093015 Page 10 of 24

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. Enable us, we beseech Thee, O Lord, to be fittingly prepared for offering these gifts, and through the Mysteries of the most holy Rosary, so to meditate upon the life, passion, and glory of Thine only begotten Son, that we may be made worthy 063bMass093015 Page 11 of 24

Quæ et Unigénitum tuum Sancti Spíritus obumbratióne concépit: et, virginitátis glória permanénte, lumen ætérnum mundo effúdit, Iesum Christum Dóminum nostrum.

The Heavens and the hosts of heaven with blessed Seraphim unite, exult, and celebrate; and we entreat that Thou 063bMass093015 Page 12 of 24

Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest. Emphasizing the quiet solemnity of the action, the Consecration Candle is placed upon the Mensa of the Altar immediately following the Sanctus, announcing the immanent arrival of the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of the Second Person of the Holy Trinity. It will remain until the Tabernacle is closed after Communion The Canon of the Mass The Celebrant bows low, kisses the Altar, and 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. 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 unspotted sacrifices.

C The Church commemorates the Church Triumphant: those already in heaven. ommunicántes et memóriam venerántes, in primis gloriósæ semper Vírginis Maríæ, Genitrícis Dei et Dómini nostri Iesu Christi: sed et beáti Ioseph, 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.

Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen. The Celebrant extends his hands over the offering, a bell sounds: 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 nostros in tua pace dispónas, atque ab ætérna damnatióne nos éripi et in electórum servitude, as also of Thy whole family; and to dispose our days in Thy peace, preserve us from eternal damnation, and count us in tuórum iúbeas grege numerári.

The Celebrant makes five signs of the Cross over the bread and wine, praying that they may become the Body and Blood of Christ.

Q ui The Celebrant has now reached the most solemn moment of the Mass. Obedient to Our Lord's command, he re-enacts the Last Supper. 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 W ho 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. A bell is rung thrice and the Celebrant, genuflecting, adores. Upon seeing the Sacred Host we may contemplate the profound mystical Sacrifice that has just taken place. He genuflects again, uncovers the Chalice and continues: 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 Thurifer incenses our God. 063bMass093015 Page 15 of 24
The bell rings thrice. He genuflects again in adoration. He continues: Unde 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. Wherefore, 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. 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. Supplíces te rogámus, omnípotens Deus: 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. Meménto étiam, Dómine, famulórum, famularúmque tuárum, N. et N., qui nos præcessérunt cum signo fídei, et dórmiunt in somno pacis. Ipsis, Dómine, et ómnibus in 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. We most humbly beseech Thee, almighty God, to command these things to 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. Be mindful, O Lord, of Thy servants, N. and N., 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 063bMass093015 Page 16 of 24

Amen. beseech Thee, a place of refreshment, light and peace; through the same Christ our Lord. Amen. Pronouncing the first three Latin words audibly, the Celebrant strikes his breast, and adds to the commemoration of the Church Suffering (above prayer) that of the Church Militant and the Church Triumphant: Nobis 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 quorum nos consórtium, non æstimátor mériti, sed véniæ quǽsumus largítor, admítte. Per Christum Dóminum nostrum. Per quem hæc ómnia, Dómine, semper bona creas, sancti ficas, viví ficas, bene dícis, et præstas nobis. 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. Through whom, O Lord, Thou always create, sanctify, quicken, bless, and give us all these good things. The Celebrant finishes the Canon. He takes the Host and the Chalice and lifts them heavenwards. Per ip sum, et cum ip so, et in ip so, est tibi Deo Patri omnipoténti, in unitáte Spíritus Sancti, omnis honor et glória. V. (He sings) Per ómnia sǽcula sǽculórum. 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. V. For ever and ever. Orémus. Præcéptis salutáribus móniti, et divína institutióne formáti, audémus dícere: Pater noster, qui es in cœlis: Sanctificétur THE PATER NOSTER Let us pray.

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. Deliver us, we beseech Thee, O Lord, from all evils, past, present and to come; and by the intercession of the blessed and glorious Mary, ever Virgin, Mother of God, and of Thy holy Apostles Peter and Paul and Andrew, and of all the saints, mercifully grant peace in our days, that through the assistance of Thy mercy we may be always free from sin, and secure from all disturbance. Breaking the Sacred Host in half, he puts the right Half on the paten; and breaking a Particle off the left Half, says: Per eúndem Dóminum nostrum Iesum Christum Fílium tuum, qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitáte Spíritus Sancti, Deus. Through the same Jesus Christ Thy Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with Thee in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God. He places the Half in his left hand also on the paten; then with the Particle he broke from It in his right, he takes the Chalice in his left, and holding the Particle over the Chalice, sings: V. Per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum. V. Pax Dómini sit semper vobíscum. R. Et cum spíritu tuo. V. For ever and ever. V. The peace of the Lord be always with you. R. And with your spirit. He puts the small Particle of the Host into the Chalice, saying: Hæc commíxtio et consecrátio Córporis et Sánguinis Dómini nostri Iesu Christi, fiat accipiéntibus nobis in vitam ætérnam. Amen. May this mixture and Consecration of the Body and Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ be to us that receive it effectual to eternal life. Amen. 063bMass093015 Page 18 of 24
Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccáta mundi, miserére nobis. (x2) Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccáta mundi, dona nobis pacem. Dómine Iesu Christe, qui dixísti Apóstolis tuis: Pacem relínquo vobis, pacem meam do vobis: ne respícias peccáta mea, sed fidem Ecclésiae tuæ eámque secúndum voluntátem tuam pacificáre et coadunáre dignéris: Qui vivis et regnas Deus per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum. Amen. AGNUS DEI Recited by the Celebrant and sung by the Schola. 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. PRAYERS FOR HOLY COMMUNION Prayer for Peace Lord Jesus Christ, Who said to Thy Apostles, peace I leave you, My peace I give unto you: regard not my sins, but the faith of Thy Church, and grant to her that peace and unity which is agreeable to Thy will. Who lives and reigns, God, forever and ever. Amen. Prayer for Sanctification. Dómine Iesu Christe, Fili Dei vivi, qui Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the living ex voluntáte Patris, cooperánte God, Who according to the will of the Spíritu Sancto, per mortem tuam mundum Father, through the cooperation of the Holy vivificásti: líbera me per hoc Spirit, has by Thy death given life to the sacrosánctum Corpus et Sánguinem tuum world: deliver me by this, Thy most sacred ab ómnibus iniquitátibus meis, et Body and Blood, from all my iniquities and univérsis malis: et fac me tuis semper inhærére mandátis, et a te numquam from all evils; make me always adhere to Thy commandments, and never suffer me to separári permíttas: Qui cum eódem Deo be separated from Thee. Who with the same Patre et Spíritu Sancto vivis et regnas, Deus, in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen. God the Father and the Holy Spirit, lives and reigns, God, forever and ever. Amen. Prayer for Grace Percéptio Córporis tui, Dómine Iesu Let not the partaking of Thy Body, O Christe, quod ego indígnus súmere Lord Jesus Christ, which I, unworthy, præsúmo, non mihi provéniat in iudícium et presume to receive, turn to my judgment condemnatiónem: sed pro tua pietáte prosit and condemnation; but through Thy mihi ad tutaméntum mentis et córporis, et goodness may it be to me a safeguard and ad medélam percipiéndam: Qui vivis et remedy both of soul and body. Who with 063bMass093015 Page 19 of 24
regnas cum Deo Patre in unitáte Spíritus Sancti, Deus, per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum. Amen. God the Father, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, lives and reigns, God, forever and ever. Amen. COMMUNION OF THE PRIEST Panem cœléstem accípiam, et nomen Dómini invocábo. A Bell sounds thrice: Dómine non sum Dignus, et intra sub tectum meum, sed tantum dic verbo, et sanábitur ánima tua. (x3) Corpus Dómini nostri Iesu Christi custódiat ánimam meam in vitam ætérnum. He receives the Sacred Host. Quid retríbuam Dómino pro ómnibus quæ retríbuit mihi? Cálicem salutáris accípiam, et nomen Dómini invocábo. Laudans invocábo Dóminum, et inimícis meis salvus ero. He receives the Precious Blood. Sanguis Dómini nostri Iesu Christi custódiat ánimam meam in vitam ætérnam. Amen. I will take the Bread of heaven, and call upon the name of the Lord. A Bell sounds thrice: Lord, I am not worthy that Thou should enter under my roof, but only say the word, and my soul shall be healed. (x3) May the Body of our Lord Jesus Christ preserve my soul unto life everlasting. He receives the Sacred Host. What shall I render to the Lord for all He has rendered unto me? I will take the Chalice of Salvation, and call upon the name of the Lord. Praising, I will call upon the Lord and I shall be saved from my enemies. He receives the Precious Blood. May the Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ preserve my soul unto life everlasting. Amen. COMMUNION OF THE FAITHFUL The reception of Holy Communion is a sign that the communicant accepts and believes all that the Roman Catholic Church holds and teaches. General norms for receiving Holy Communion in the Catholic Church Those who receive should: 1) be baptized Catholics in full communion and in good standing with the Church; 2) be in a state of Sanctifying Grace (i.e., not conscious of a mortal sin); 3) have fasted at least one hour before receiving the Sacrament. In the ancient Latin rite celebrated according to the liturgical books of 1962, the Communicant receives the Sacred Host on the tongue while, if you are able, kneeling. The Amen is said by the priest. 063bMass093015 Page 20 of 24
The form used by the Priest distributing Holy Communion is: Cor pus Dómini nostri Iesu Christi custódiat ánimam tuam in vitam ætérnam. Amen. May the Body of our Lord Jesus Christ preserve thy soul unto life everlasting. Amen. After Communion the Priest returns to the altar and reposes any remaining Hosts in the Tabernacle. The Consecration Candle is removed from the Mensa. He continues with the Ablutions, during which he purifies the Paten, Ciborium, and Chalice. This action is a reminder of the Catholic Church s Jewish origins, specifically the ritual cleansing in and of the Temple. THE ABLUTIONS A server pours wine into the Chalice while the Celebrant recites the following prayer: Quod ore súmpsimus, Dómine, pura mente capiámus: et de múnere temporáli fiat nobis remédium sempitérnum. Grant, O Lord, that what we have taken with our mouth we may receive with a pure mind; and that from a temporal gift it may become for us an eternal remedy. Having purified the Chalice, the Celebrant now moves to the Epistle side where Servers pour water and wine over his fingers, into the Chalice, to purify them. Corpus tuum, Dómine, quod sumpsi, et Sánguis, quem potávi, adhǽreat viscéribus meis: et præsta; ut in me non remáneat scélerum mácula, quem pura et sancta refecérunt sacraménta: Qui vivis et regnas in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen. May thy Body, O Lord, which I have received, and Thy Blood which I have drunk, cleave to my very soul; and grant that no stain of sin may remain in me, whom Thy pure and Holy Sacraments have refreshed; Who lives and reigns world without end. Amen. THE COMMUNION PRAYER Floréte, flores, quasi lílium, et date Send forth flowers, as the lily, and yield odórem, et frondéte in grátiam, a fragrance, and bring forth leaves in collaudáte cánticum, et benedícite grace, and praise with canticles, and bless Dóminum in opéribus suis. the Lord in His works.
