Holy Mary, Mother of God, Pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
I believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth.
And in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried: he descended into hell; the third day he arose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven; sitteth at the right hand of God the Father almighty: from thence he shall come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Ghost, the holy catholic Church, the communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins. The resurrection of the body. And life everlasting. Amen.

Hymnus {ex Commune aut Festo}
Deus tuorum militum
Sors, et corona, praemium,
Laudes canentes Martyris
Absolve nexu criminis.
Hic nempe mundi gaudia,
Et blanda fraudum pabula
Imbuta felle deputans,
Pervenit ad caelestia.
Poenas cucurrit fortiter,
Et sustulit viriliter,
Fundensque pro te sanguinem,
Aeterna dona possidet.
Ob hoc precatu supplici
Te poscimus, piissime;
In hoc triumpho Martyris
Dimitte noxam servulis.
Deo Patri sit gloria,
Et Fílio, qui a mórtuis
Surréxit, ac Paraclito,
In sempiterna sæcula.
Amen.

Hymn {from the Common or Feast}
O God, of those that fought thy fight,
Portion, and prize, and crown of light,
Break every bond of sin and shame
As now we praise thy martyr's name.
He recked not of the world's allure,
But sin and pomp of sin forswore:
Knew all their gall, and passed them by,
And reached the throne prepared on high.
Bravely the course of pain he ran,
And bare his torments as a man:
For love of thee his blood outpoured,
And thus obtained the great reward.
With humble voice and suppliant word
We pray thee therefore, holy Lord,
While we thy martyr's feast-day keep,
Forgive thy loved and erring sheep.
Hymns of glory, songs of praise,
Father, unto Thee we raise;
Risen Lord, all praise to Thee,
Ever with the Spirit be
Amen.

13:3 The Lord hath looked down from heaven upon the children of men, * to see if there be any that understand and seek God.
13:4 They are all gone aside, they are become unprofitable together: * there is none that doth good: no not one.
13:5 Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they acted deceitfully: * the poison of asps is under their lips.
13:6 Their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness; * their feet are swift to shed blood.
13:7 Destruction and unhappiness in their ways; and the way of peace they have not known: * there is no fear of God before their eyes.
13:8 Shall not all they know that work iniquity, * who devour my people as they eat bread?
13:9 They have not called upon the Lord: * there have they trembled for fear, where there was no fear.

16:3 Let my judgment come forth from thy countenance: * let thy eyes behold the things that are equitable.
16:4 Thou hast proved my heart, and visited it by night, * thou hast tried me by fire: and iniquity hath not been found in me.
16:5 That my mouth may not speak the works of men: * for the sake of the words of thy lips, I have kept hard ways.
16:6 Perfect thou my goings in thy paths: * that my footsteps be not moved.
16:7 I have cried to thee, for thou, O God, hast heard me: * O incline thy ear unto me, and hear my words.

17:12 And he ascended upon the cherubim, and he flew; * he flew upon the wings of the winds.
17:13 And he made darkness his covert, his pavilion round about him: * dark waters in the clouds of the air.
17:14 At the brightness that was before him the clouds passed, * hail and coals of fire.
17:15 And the Lord thundered from heaven, * and the Highest gave his voice: * hail and coals of fire.
17:16 And he sent forth his arrows, and he scattered them: * he multiplied lightnings, and troubled them.
17:16 Then the fountains of waters appeared, * and the foundations of the world were discovered:
17:16 At thy rebuke, O Lord, * at the blast of the spirit of thy wrath.
V. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
R. As it was in the beginning, is now, * and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Psalm 17(17-35) [5]
17:17 He sent from on high, and took me: * and received me out of many waters.
17:18 He delivered me from my strongest enemies, and from them that hated me: * for they were too strong for me.
17:19 They prevented me in the day of my affliction: * and the Lord became my protector.
17:20 And he brought me forth into a large place: * he saved me, because he was well pleased with me.
17:21 And the Lord will reward me according to my justice; * and will repay me according to the cleanness of my hands:
17:22 Because I have kept the ways of the Lord; * and have not done wickedly against my God.
17:23 For all his judgments are in my sight: * and his justices I have not put away from me.
17:24 And I shall be spotless with him: * and shall keep myself from my iniquity.
17:25 And the Lord will reward me according to my justice: * and according to the cleanness of my hands before his eyes.
17:26 With the holy thou wilt be holy; * and with the innocent man thou wilt be innocent:
17:27 And with the elect thou wilt be elect: * and with the perverse thou wilt be perverted.
17:28 For thou wilt save the humble people; * but wilt bring down the eyes of the proud.
17:29 For thou lightest my lamp, O Lord: * O my God, enlighten my darkness.
17:30 For by thee I shall be delivered from temptation; * and through my God I shall go over a wall.
17:31 As for my God, his way is undefiled: the words of the Lord are fire-tried: * he is the protector of all that trust in him.
17:32 For who is God but the Lord? * or who is God but our God?
17:33 God, who hath girt me with strength; * and made my way blameless.
17:34 Who hath made my feet like the feet of harts: * and who setteth me upon high places.
17:35 Who teacheth my hands to war: * and thou hast made my arms like a brazen bow.
V. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.

Stanislaus Polonus, apud Cracoviam nobili genere natus, et piis parentibus, qui antea per annos triginta steriles, illum a Deo precibus impetrarunt, ab ineunte aetate futurae sanctitatis specimen dedit. Adolescens bonis artibus operam navavit, multumque in sacra canonum et theologiae doctrina profecit: parentibus mortuis, amplum patrimonium pauperibus distribuit, vitae monasticae desiderio. Sed Dei providentia canonicus Cracoviensis, et concionator factus a Lamperto episcopo, in ejus postea locum, quamvis invitus, sufficitur. Quo in munere, omnium pastoralium virtutum laude, et praecipue misericordia in pauperes enituit.

This Stanislaw was a Pole. He was born of a noble family, (on the 26th day of July, in the year of our Lord 1030,) at (Szcrepanow, in the diocese of) Cracow. His godly parents, who had been childless for thirty years, obtained him from God by prayer, and from his earliest years he gave token of the holiness of life which afterwards marked him. When he was a young man he applied himself heartily to all useful learning, and was deeply read in the sacred teaching of the Canons and of Theological science. After the death of his parents he inherited great possessions, but he sold them, and distributed the price to the poor, purposing himself to become a monk. However, by the Providence of God, Lampert, Bishop of Crakow, named him Canon of the Cathedral Church of that diocese, and Preacher in the same and afterwards, in 1072, he was elected, against his own will, to succeed to Lampert's place. In this office he was a bright and shining light of all virtues that become a shepherd of souls, especially of tenderness toward the poor.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R. Thanks be to God.
R. The everlasting light shall shine upon thy Saints, O Lord.

Erat tum Poloniae rex Boleslaus, quem graviter offendit, quod illius notam libidinem publice arguebat. Quare in solemni regni conventu Stanislaum per calumniam in judicium coram se vocari curat, tamquam pagum occuparet, quem Ecclesiae suae nomine coemerat. Quod cum neque tabulis probare posset, et testes veritatem dicere timerent, spondet episcopus, se Petrum pagi venditorem, qui triennio ante obierat, intra dies tres in judicium adducturum. Conditione cum risu accepta, vir Dei toto triduo jejuniis et orationi incumbit: ipso sponsidnis die, post oblatum Missae sacrificium, Petrum e sepulcro surgere jubet: qui statim redivivus, episcopum ad regium tribunal euntem sequitur, ibique rege et ceteris stupore attonitis, de agro a se vendito, et pretio rite sibi ab episcopo persoluto, testimonium dicit, atque iterum in Domino obdormivit.

AT that time Boleslaw II. was King of Poland, and him Stanislaw grievously offended, because he openly rebuked him for his shameless lust. Wherefore, in a solemn Parliament of his kingdom, he made Stanislaw to be brought before him on a false accusation of having taken wrongfully a certain village, which he had bought in the name of his Church. The Bishop could not rebut this charge by documents, and the witnesses were in too great fear to speak the truth. Stanislaw therefore said that in three days he would produce before the judgment-seat one Peter, from whom he had bought the village, and who had been dead three years. His enemies laughed thereat, and closed with his proposal, and the man of God gave himself up to fasting and prayer for three days. On the day which he had promised, after he had offered up the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, he commanded Peter to rise from the grave. Peter then immediately came to life, arose, and followed Stanislaw to the King's judgment-seat, where before the King and all others, who were struck dumb with amazement, he bore witness of the sale of the village, and the honest payment of the price by the Bishop, and then again fell asleep in the Lord.

At Bolesimum, frustra saepe admonitum, Stanislaus tandem a fidelium communione removet. Ille iracundia furens, milites in ecclesiam immittit, ut sanctum episcopum confodiant: qui ter conati, occulta vi tertio divinitus sunt depulsi. Postremo impius rex sacerdotem Dei, hostiam immaculatam ad altare offerentem, sua manu obtruncat: corpus membratim concisum et per agros projectum, aquilae a feris mirabiliter defendunt. Mox canonici Cracovienses sparsa membra, nocturni de caelo splendoris indicio colligunt, et suis locis apte disponunt: quae subito ita inter se copulata sunt, ut nulla vulnerum vestigia exstarent. Multis praeterea miraculis servi sui sanctitatem Deus declaravit post ejus mortem; quibus permotus Innocentius quartus Summus Pontifex, illum in sanctorum numerum retulit. Clemens vero octavus, Pontifex Maximus, sancti Stanislai festo die in Romanum Breviarium relato, gloriosi Martyris memoriam duplici Officio ubique celebrari jussit.

Stanislaw often rebuked Boleslaw, but when he found it was in vain, he at last cut him off from the communion of Christ's faithful people. Thereupon Boleslaw became frenzied with rage, and on the 8th of May, in the year 1079, sent soldiers to the Church to murder the holy Bishop. This they thrice essayed to do, but God was pleased that they should be held back by some unseen power. In the end, the ungodly King with his own hand cut off the head of the Priest of God as he was standing at the Altar offering up the Sacrifice without spot. His body was hewn into pieces and strewn about the fields, but the eagles strangely kept the beasts of prey off it. The Canons of the Cathedral of Cracow soon gathered together the mutilated and scattered limbs, which they were enabled to see by a lightness which overspread the sky at night and they fitted them together, each into his place. The reliques immediately so joined themselves one to the other, that no marks of wounds remained. Moreover, God was pleased to manifest the holiness of His servant by many wonders after his death, by the which being moved, Pope Innocent IV. added his name to those of the Saints, and the Supreme Pontiff Clement VIII. gave his Feast a place in the Service Book of the Church of Rome, commanding that the memory of so glorious a Martyr should be everywhere celebrated under the Double rite.

29:10 To thee, O Lord, will I cry: * and I will make supplication to my God.

John 15:1-7
In illo tempore: Dixit Jesus discipulis suis: Ego sum vitis vera: et Pater meus agricola est. Et reliqua.
Homilia sancti Augustini Episcopi.

Iste locus evangelicus, fratres, ubi se dicit Dominus vitem, et discipulos suos palmites, secundum hoc dicit, quod est caput Ecclesiae, nosque membra ejus. mediator Dei et hominum, homo Christus Jesus. Unius quippe naturae sunt vitis et palmites. Propter quod cum esset Deus, cujus naturae non sumus, factus est homo, ut in illo esset vitis humana natura, cujus et nos homines palmites esse possemus.
V. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

From the Holy Gospel according to John
John 15:1-7
At that time Jesus said unto His disciples I am the true vine, and My Father is the husbandman. And so on.
Homily by St Austin, Bishop of Hippo.
Tract 80, on John.
Dearly beloved brethren, this passage of the Gospel, wherein the Lord saith that He is the vine, and that His disciples are the branches, is to be taken in that sense wherein it is also said, that He is the Head of the Church, and that we are the members of Him Who is the Mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. The vine and his branches are of one and the same nature. Therefore, seeing that He was God, of which nature we are not, He was made man, to the end that He might have in Himself this vine, that is, the manhood, whereof we men can be made branches.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R. Thanks be to God.
R. I am the true vine, ye are the branches.
* He that abideth in Me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit. Alleluia, Alleluia.
V. As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you.
R. He that abideth in Me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit. Alleluia, Alleluia.

V. Jube, domne, benedicere.
Benedictio. Cujus festum colimus, ipse intercedat pro nobis ad Dominum. Amen.

Quid ergo est, Ego sum vitis vera? Numquid ut adderet, vera, hoc ad eam vitem retulit, unde ista similitudo translata est? Sic enim dicitur vitis per similitudinem, non per proprietatem: quemadmodum dicitur ovis, agnus, leo, petra, lapis angularis, et cetera hujusmodi, quae magis ipsa sunt vera, ex quibus ducuntur istae similitudines, non proprietates. Sed cum dicit, Ego sum vitis vera: ab illa se utique discernit, cui dicitur: Quomodo conversa es in amaritudinem vitis aliena? Nam quo pacto est vitis vera, quae exspectata est ut faceret uvam, fecit autem spinas?
V. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
R. Deo grátias.
R. Candidi facti sunt Nazaraei ejus, alleluia: splendorem Deo dederunt, alleluia:
* Et sicut lac coagulati sunt, alleluia, alleluia.
V. Candidiores nive, nitidiores lacte, rubicundiores ebore antiquo, sapphiro pulchriores.
R. Et sicut lac coagulati sunt, alleluia, alleluia.
V. Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.
R. Et sicut lac coagulati sunt, alleluia, alleluia.

Saith He "I am the true vine"? As touching this word "true," hath He not here regard to that other parable of a vine, the like figure whereto He doth here apply to Himself? Here is He called a vine, not plainly, but in parable, as also He is called elsewhere a sheep, a lamb, a lion, a rock, a corner-stone, and other things of the like kind. But these things are in themselves that which they seem to be, albeit He is called by their names, not plainly, but in a parable, and herein are they different from that vine, whereof in this place He taketh on Him the name. For when He saith "I am the true vine," doth He not make distinction between Himself, and that which indeed seemed to be a vine, but to which it is said "How art thou turned into the degenerate plant of a strange vine unto Me?" For by what title shall that plant be called other than a false vine, whereto they looked that she should bring forth grapes, and she brought forth thorns.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R. Thanks be to God.
R. Her Nazarites are become pure, alleluia; they reflect the glory of God, alleluia;
* They are whiter than milk, alleluia, alleluia.
V. They are purer than snow, they are whiter than milk, they are more ruddy in body than coral, their polishing is of sapphire.
R. They are whiter than milk, alleluia, alleluia.
V. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
R. They are whiter than milk, alleluia, alleluia.

Lectio 9
Ego sum, inquit, vitis vera: et Pater meus agricola est. Numquid unum sunt agricola et vitis? Secundum hoc ergo vitis Christus, secundum quod ait: Pater major me est. Secundum autem id, quod ait: Ego, et Pater unum sumus; et ipse agricola est: nec talis, quales sunt, qui extrinsecus operando exhibent ministerium: sed talis, ut det etiam intrinsecus incrementum. Nam neque qui plantat est aliquid, neque qui rigat: sed, qui incrementum dat, Deus. Sed utique Deus est Christus, quia Deus erat Verbum: unde ipse, et Pater unum sunt. Et, si Verbum caro factum est, quod non erat, manet quod erat.
V. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
R. Deo grátias.

Reading 9
Jesus saith "I am the true vine, and My Father is the husbandman." Is the vine one with the husbandman These words then are to be taken in that sense wherein He also saith "My Father is greater than I." But again, in regard to those words "I and the Father are one," and again "and My Father is the husbandman," we understand that They are not the vine and the husbandman, after the manner of a vine, and the husbandman that from without doth care for and keep it, but after the manner of a vine and Him That from within doth make it to bring forth fruit. For "neither is he that planteth anything, neither he that watereth but God that giveth the increase." But Christ is God, for "the Word was God." Therefore He and the Father are one and, albeit "the Word was made flesh," which, before, He was not, He ceased not to be still That Which He was.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R. Thanks be to God.
Te Deum
We praise thee, O God, * we acknowledge thee to be the Lord.
All the earth doth worship thee, * the Father everlasting.
To thee all Angels cry aloud, * the Heavens, and all the Powers therein.
To thee Cherubim and Seraphim * continually do cry.
(bow head) Holy, Holy, Holy * Lord God of Sabaoth;
Heaven and earth are full * of the Majesty of thy glory.
The glorious company of the Apostles * praise thee.
The goodly fellowship of the Prophets * praise thee.
The noble army of Martyrs * praise thee.
The holy Church throughout all the world * doth acknowledge thee;
The Father, * of an infinite Majesty.
Thine honourable, true, * and only Son;
Also the Holy Ghost, * the Comforter.
Thou art the King of Glory, * O Christ.
Thou art the everlasting * Son of the Father.
During the following verse all make a profound bow:
When thou tookest upon thee to deliver man, * thou didst not abhor the Virgin's womb.
When thou hadst overcome the sharpness of death, * thou didst open the Kingdom of Heaven to all believers.
Thou sittest at the right hand of God, * in the glory of the Father.
We believe that thou shalt come * to be our Judge.
Kneel for the following verse
We therefore pray thee, help thy servants, * whom thou hast redeemed with thy precious Blood.
Make them to be numbered with thy Saints, * in glory everlasting.
O Lord, save thy people, * and bless thine heritage.
Govern them, * and lift them up for ever.
Day by day * we magnify thee;
During the following verse, by local custom, all make a profound bow.
And we worship thy Name * ever, world without end.
Vouchsafe, O Lord, to keep us * this day without sin.
O Lord, have mercy upon us, * have mercy upon us.
O Lord, let thy mercy lighten upon us, * as our trust is in thee.
O Lord, in thee have I trusted, * let me never be confounded.
