Hymn {from the Common or Feast}
Th' eternal gifts of Christ the King,
The Apostles' glory, let us sing;
And all with hearts of gladness raise
Due hymns of thankful love and praise.
For they the Church's princes are,
Triumphant leaders in the war,
The heavenly King's own warrior band,
True lights to lighten every land.
Theirs was the steadfast faith of saints,
The hope that never yields nor faints,
The love of Christ in perfect glow,
That lay the prince of this world low.
In them the Father's glory shone,
In them the Spirit's will was done,
The Son himself exults in them;
Joy fills the new Jerusalem.
* Praise to the Father, with the Son,
And Holy Spirit, Three in One;
As ever was in ages past,
And so shall be while ages last.
Amen.

88:21 Invéni David, servum meum: * óleo sancto meo unxi eum.
88:22 Manus enim mea auxiliábitur ei: * et bráchium meum confortábit eum.
88:23 Nihil profíciet inimícus in eo, * et fílius iniquitátis non appónet nocére ei.
88:24 Et concídam a fácie ipsíus inimícos ejus: * et odiéntes eum in fugam convértam.
88:25 Et véritas mea, et misericórdia mea cum ipso: * et in nómine meo exaltábitur cornu ejus.
88:26 Et ponam in mari manum ejus: * et in flumínibus déxteram ejus.
88:27 Ipse invocábit me: Pater meus es tu: * Deus meus, et suscéptor salútis meæ.
88:28 Et ego primogénitum ponam illum * excélsum præ régibus terræ.
88:29 In ætérnum servábo illi misericórdiam meam: * et testaméntum meum fidéle ipsi.
88:30 Et ponam in sæculum sæculi semen ejus: * et thronum ejus sicut dies cæli.

88:37 Et thronus ejus sicut sol in conspéctu meo, * et sicut luna perfécta in ætérnum: et testis in cælo fidélis.
88:39 Tu vero repulísti et despexísti: * distulísti Christum tuum.
88:40 Evertísti testaméntum servi tui: * profanásti in terra Sanctuárium ejus.
88:41 Destruxísti omnes sepes ejus: * posuísti firmaméntum ejus formídinem.

Psalm 88(20-53) [4]
88:20 Then thou spokest in a vision to thy saints, and saidst: * I have laid help upon one that is mighty, and have exalted one chosen out of my people.
88:21 I have found David my servant: * with my holy oil I have anointed him.
88:22 For my hand shall help him: * and my arm shall strengthen him.
88:23 The enemy shall have no advantage over him: * nor the son of iniquity have power to hurt him.
88:24 And I will cut down his enemies before his face; * and them that hate him I will put to flight.
88:25 And my truth and my mercy shall be with him: * and in my name shall his horn be exalted.
88:26 And I will set his hand in the sea; * and his right hand in the rivers.
88:27 He shall cry out to me: Thou art my father: * my God, and the support of my salvation.
88:28 And I will make him my firstborn, * high above the kings of the earth.
88:29 I will keep my mercy for him for ever: * and my covenant faithful to him.
88:30 And I will make his seed to endure for evermore: * and his throne as the days of heaven.
88:31 And if his children forsake my law, * and walk not in my judgments:
88:32 If they profane my justices: * and keep not my commandments:
88:33 I will visit their iniquities with a rod: *and their sins with stripes.
88:34 But my mercy I will not take away from him: * nor will I suffer my truth to fail.
88:35 Neither will I profane my covenant: * and the words that proceed from my mouth I will not make void.
88:36 Once have I sworn by my holiness: I will not lie unto David: * his seed shall endure for ever.
88:37 And his throne as the sun before me: * and as the moon perfect for ever, and a faithful witness in heaven.
88:39 But thou hast rejected and despised: * thou hast been angry with thy anointed.
88:40 Thou hast overthrown the covenant of thy servant: * thou hast profaned his sanctuary on the earth.
88:41 Thou hast broken down all his hedges: * thou hast made his strength fear.
88:42 All that pass by the way have robbed him: * he is become a reproach to his neighbours.
88:43 Thou hast set up the right hand of them that oppress him: * thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice.
88:44 Thou hast turned away the help of his sword; * and hast not assisted him in battle.
88:45 Thou hast made his purification to cease: * and thou hast cast his throne down to the ground.
88:46 Thou hast shortened the days of his time: * thou hast covered him with confusion.
88:47 How long, O Lord, turnest thou away unto the end? * shall thy anger burn like fire?
88:48 Remember what my substance is: * for hast thou made all the children of men in vain?
88:49 Who is the man that shall live, and not see death: * that shall deliver his soul from the hand of hell?
88:50 Lord, where are thy ancient mercies, * according to what thou didst swear to David in thy truth?
88:51 Be mindful, O Lord, of the reproach of thy servants * which I have held in my
Bosom of many nations:
88:52 Wherewith thy enemies have reproached, O Lord; * wherewith they have reproached the change of thy anointed.
88:53 Blessed be the Lord for evermore. * So be it. So be it.
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.

93:10 Qui córripit gentes, non árguet: * qui docet hóminem sciéntiam?
93:11 Dóminus scit cogitatiónes hóminum, * quóniam vanæ sunt.
93:12 Beátus homo, quem tu erudíeris, Dómine: * et de lege tua docúeris eum,

Psalm 93 [6]
93:1 The Lord is the God to whom revenge belongeth: * the God of revenge hath acted freely.
93:2 Lift up thyself, thou that judgest the earth: * render a reward to the proud.
93:3 How long shall sinners, O Lord: * how long shall sinners glory?
93:4 Shall they utter, and speak iniquity: * shall all speak who work injustice?
93:5 Thy people, O Lord, they have brought low: * and they have afflicted thy inheritance.
93:6 They have slain the widow and the stranger: * and they have murdered the fatherless.
93:7 And they have said: The Lord shall not see: * neither shall the God of Jacob understand.
93:8 Understand, ye senseless among the people: * and, you fools, be wise at last.
93:9 He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? * or he that formed the eye, doth he not consider?
93:10 He that chastiseth nations, shall he not rebuke: * he that teacheth man knowledge?
93:11 The Lord knoweth the thoughts of men, * that they are vain.
93:12 Blessed is the man whom thou shalt instruct, O Lord: * and shalt teach him out of thy law.
93:13 That thou mayst give him rest from the evil days: * till a pit be dug for the wicked.
93:14 For the Lord will not cast off his people: * neither will he forsake his own inheritance.
93:15 Until justice be turned into judgment: * and they that are near it are all the upright in heart.
93:16 Who shall rise up for me against the evildoers? * or who shall stand with me against the workers of iniquity?
93:17 Unless the Lord had been my helper, * my soul had almost dwelt in hell.
93:18 If I said: My foot is moved: * thy mercy, O Lord, assisted me.
93:19 According to the multitude of my sorrows in my heart, * thy comforts have given joy to my soul.
93:20 Doth the seat of iniquity stick to thee, * who framest labour in commandment?
93:21 They will hunt after the soul of the just, * and will condemn innocent blood.
93:22 But the Lord is my refuge: * and my God the help of my hope.
93:23 And he will render them their iniquity: and in their malice he will destroy them: * the Lord our God will destroy them.

13 The God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus, whom you indeed delivered up and denied before the face of Pilate, when he judged he should be released.

91:10 Et exaltábitur sicut unicórnis cornu meum: * et senéctus mea in misericórdia úberi.
91:11 Et despéxit óculus meus inimícos meos: * et in insurgéntibus in me malignántibus áudiet auris mea.
91:12 Justus, ut palma florébit: * sicut cedrus Líbani multiplicábitur.
91:13 Plantáti in domo Dómini, * in átriis domus Dei nostri florébunt.
91:14 Adhuc multiplicabúntur in senécta úberi: * et bene patiéntes erunt, ut annúntient:
91:15 Quóniam rectus Dóminus, Deus noster: * et non est iníquitas in eo.
V. Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.
R. Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

Ant. It is a good * thing to give thanks unto the Lord
Psalm 91 [11]
91:1 It is good to give praise to the Lord: * and to sing to thy name, O most High.
91:2 To shew forth thy mercy in the morning, * and thy truth in the night:
91:3 Upon an instrument of ten strings, upon the psaltery: * with a canticle upon the harp.
91:4 For thou hast given me, O Lord, a delight in thy doings: * and in the works of thy hands I shall rejoice.
91:5 O Lord, how great are thy works! * thy thoughts are exceeding deep.
91:6 The senseless man shall not know: * nor will the fool understand these things.
91:7 When the wicked shall spring up as grass: * and all the workers of iniquity shall appear:
91:8 That they may perish for ever and ever: * but thou, O Lord, art most high for evermore.
91:9 For behold thy enemies, O Lord, for behold thy enemies shall perish: * and all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
91:10 But my horn shall be exalted like that of the unicorn: * and my old age in plentiful mercy.
91:11 My eye also hath looked down upon my enemies: * and my ear shall hear of the downfall of the malignant that rise up against me.
91:12 The just shall flourish like the palm tree: * he shall grow up like the cedar of Libanus.
91:13 They that are planted in the house of the Lord * shall flourish in the courts of the house of our God.
91:14 They shall still increase in a fruitful old age: * and shall be well treated, that they may shew,
91:15 That the Lord our God is righteous, * and there is no iniquity in him.
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.

100:3 Perambulábam in innocéntia cordis mei, * in médio domus meæ.
100:4 Non proponébam ante óculos meos rem injústam: * faciéntes prævaricatiónes odívi.
100:5 Non adhæsit mihi cor pravum: * declinántem a me malígnum non cognoscébam.
100:6 Detrahéntem secréto próximo suo, * hunc persequébar.
100:7 Supérbo óculo, et insatiábili corde, * cum hoc non edébam.
100:8 Óculi mei ad fidéles terræ ut sédeant mecum: * ámbulans in via immaculáta, hic mihi ministrábat.
100:9 Non habitábit in médio domus meæ qui facit supérbiam: * qui lóquitur iníqua, non diréxit in conspéctu oculórum meórum.
100:10 In matutíno interficiébam omnes peccatóres terræ: * ut dispérderem de civitáte Dómini omnes operántes iniquitátem.

Psalm 100 [12]
100:1 Mercy and judgment * I will sing to thee, O Lord:
100:2 I will sing, and I will understand in the unspotted way, * when thou shalt come to me.
100:3 I walked in the innocence of my heart, * in the midst of my house.
100:4 I did not set before my eyes any unjust thing: * I hated the workers of iniquities.
100:5 The perverse heart did not cleave to me: * and the malignant, that turned aside from me, I would not know.
100:6 The man that in private detracted his neighbour, * him did I persecute.
100:7 With him that had a proud eye, and an unsatiable heart, * I would not eat.
100:8 My eyes were upon the faithful of the earth, to sit with me: * the man that walked in the perfect way, he served me.
100:9 He that worketh pride shall not dwell in the midst of my house: * he that speaketh unjust things did not prosper before my eyes.
100:10 In the morning I put to death all the wicked of the land: * that I might cut off all the workers of iniquity from the city of the Lord.
V. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.

Sermo sancti Leonis Papae.
Sermone 1. in natali Apost. Petri et Pauli.
Omnium quidem sanctarum solemnitatum, dilectissimi, totus mundus est particeps, et unius fidei pietas exigit, ut quidquid pro salute universorum gestum recolitur, communibus ubique gaudiis celebretur. Verumtamen hodierna festivitas, praeter illam reverentiam, quam toto terrarum orbe promeruit, speciali et propria nostrae Urbis exsultatione veneranda est, ut ubi praecipuorum Apostolorum glorificatus est exitus, ibi in die martyri eorum sit laetitiae principatus. Isti enim sunt viri, per quos tibi Evangelium Christi Roma resplenduit, et quae eras magistra erroris, facta es discipula veritatis.
V. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
R. Deo grátias.
R. Domine, si tu es, jube me venire ad te super aquas.
* Et extendens manum apprehendit eum, et dixit Jesus: Modicae fidei, quare dubitasti?
V. Cumque vidisset ventum validum venientem, timuit: et cum coepisset mergi, clamavit dicens: Domine salvum me fac.
R. Et extendens manum apprehendit eum, et dixit Jesus: Modicae fidei, quare dubitasti?

From the Sermons of Pope St Leo the Great.
First for the Birthday of the Holy Apostles Peter and Paul.
Dearly beloved brethren, in the joy of all the holy Feast-days the whole world is partaker. There is but one love of God, and whatsoever is solemnly called to memory, if it hath been done for the salvation of all, must needs be worth the honour of a joyful memorial at the hands of all. Nevertheless, this feast which we are keeping to-day, besides that world-wide worship which it doth of right get throughout all the earth, doth deserve from this city of ours an outburst of gladness altogether special and our own. In this place it was that the two chiefest of the Apostles did so right gloriously finish their race. And upon this day whereon they lifted up that their last testimony, let it be in this place that the memory thereof receiveth the chiefest of jubilant celebrations. O Rome these twain are the men who brought the light of the Gospel of Christ to shine upon thee These are they by whom thou, from being the teacher of lies, wast turned into a learner of the truth.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R. Thanks be to God.
R. Lord, if it be Thou, bid me come unto thee on the water
* And Jesus stretched forth His Hand, and caught him, and said unto him O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt
V. But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, he cried, saying Lord, save me
R. And Jesus stretched forth His Hand, and caught him, and said unto him O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt

V. Jube, domne, benedicere.
Benedictio. Christus perpetuae det nobis gaudia vitae. Amen.

Isti sunt patres tui, verique pastores, qui te regnis caelestibus inserendam multo melius multoque felicius condiderunt, quam illi, quorum studio prima moenium tuorum fundamenta locata sunt: ex quibus is, qui tibi nomen dedit, fraterna te caede foedavit. Isti sunt, qui te ad. hanc gloriam provexerunt, ut gens sancta, populus electus, civitas sacerdotalis et regia, per sacram beati Petri Sedem caput orbis effecta, latius praesideres religione divina, quam dominatione terrena. Quamvis enim multis aucta victoriis, jus imperii tui terra marique protuleris: minus tamen est, quod tibi bellicus labor subdidit, quam quod pax christiana subjecit.
V. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
R. Deo grátias.
R. Surge Petre, et indue te vestimentis tuis, accipe fortitudinem ad salvandas Gentes:
* Quia ceciderunt catenae de manibus tuis.
V. Angelus Domini astitit, et lumen refulsit in habitaculo carceris, percussoque latere Petri excitavit eum, dicens: Surge velociter.
R. Quia ceciderunt catenae de manibus tuis.

Benediction. May Christ to all His people give, for ever in His sight to live. Amen.
Reading 5
These twain be thy fathers, these be in good sooth thy shepherds, these twain be they who laid for thee, as touching the kingdom of heaven, better and happier foundations, than did they that first planned thine earthly ramparts, wherefrom he that gave thee thy name took occasion to pollute thee with a brother's blood. 1 These are they who have set on thine head this thy glorious crown, that thou art become an holy nation, a chosen people, a city both Priestly and Kingly, whom the Sacred Throne of blessed Peter hath exalted till thou art become the Lady of the world, unto whom the world-wide love for God hath conceded a broader lordship than is the possession of any mere earthly empire. Thou wast once waxen great by victories, until thy power was spread haughtily over land and sea, but thy power was narrower then which the toils of war had won for thee, than that thou now hast which hath been laid at thy feet by the peace of Christ.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R. Thanks be to God.
R. Arise, O Peter! Cast thy garment about thee, gird thee with strength for the saving of the nations.
* The chains are fallen off from thine hands.
V. The Angel of the Lord came upon him, and a light shined in the prison and he smote Peter on the side and raised him up, saying Arise up quickly.
R. The chains are fallen off from thine hands.

V. Jube, domne, benedicere.
Benedictio. Ignem sui amoris accendat Deus in cordibus nostris. Amen.
Lectio 6
Disposito namque divinitus operi maxime congruebat, ut multa regna uno confoederarentur imperio, et cito pervios haberet populos praedicatio generalis, quos unius teneret regimen civitatis. Haec autem civitas ignorans suae provectionis auctorem, cum pene omnibus dominaretur gentibus, omnium gentium serviebat erroribus: et magnam sibi videbatur assumpsisse religionem quia nullam respuebat falsitatem. Unde quantum erat per diabolum tenacius illigata, tantum per Christum est mirabilius absoluta.
V. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
R. Deo grátias.
R. Tu es pastor ovium, princeps Apostolorum: tibi tradidit Deus omnia regna mundi:
* Et ideo tibi traditae sunt claves regni caelorum.
V. Quodcumque ligaveris super terram, erit ligatum et in caelis: et quodcumque solveris super terram, erit solutum et in caelis.
R. Et ideo tibi traditae sunt claves regni caelorum.
V. Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.
R. Et ideo tibi traditae sunt claves regni caelorum.

Reading 6
It well suited for the doing of the work which God had decreed that the multitude of kingdoms should be bound together under one rule, and that so the universal preaching of the Gospel should find easier entry into all peoples, since all were governed by the empire of one city. But this city, knowing not Him, Who had been pleased to make her great, used her lordship over almost all nations to make herself the minister of all their falsehoods and seemed to herself exceeding godly because there was no false god whom she rejected. But the tighter that Satan had bound her, the more wondrous was the work of Christ in setting her free.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R. Thanks be to God.
R. Thou art the Shepherd of the sheep, and the Prince of the Apostles, and unto thee hath God given all the kingdoms of the world.
* Therefore unto thee hath He given the keys of the kingdom of heaven.
V. Whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
R. Therefore unto thee hath He given the keys of the kingdom of heaven.
V. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
R. Therefore unto thee hath He given the keys of the kingdom of heaven.
