Pater noster, qui es in cælis,
sanctificétur nomen tuum: advéniat regnum tuum:
fiat volúntas tua, sicut in cælo et in terra.

et ne nos indúcas in tentatiónem:
sed líbera nos a malo.
Amen.
Ave María, grátia plena; Dóminus tecum:
benedícta tu in muliéribus, et benedíctus fructus ventris tui Jesus.

Credo in Deum, Patrem omnipoténtem, Creatórem cæli et terræ.
Et in Jesum Christum, Fílium ejus únicum, Dóminum nostrum:
qui concéptus est de Spíritu Sancto, natus ex María Vírgine,
passus sub Póntio Piláto, crucifíxus, mórtuus, et sepúltus:
descéndit ad ínferos; tértia die resurréxit a mórtuis;
ascéndit ad cælos;
sedet ad déxteram Dei Patris omnipoténtis:
inde ventúrus est judicáre vivos et mórtuos.

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: But deliver us from evil. Amen.
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. 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.
℣. O Lord, +︎ open thou my lips.
℟. And my mouth shall declare thy praise.
℣. O God, ✠ come to my assistance;
℟. O Lord, make haste to help me.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
As it was in the beginning, is now, * and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
Praise be to thee, O Lord, King of eternal glory.

For the sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land. (genuflect) Come let us adore and fall down: and weep before the Lord that made us: For he is the Lord our God: and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand.

Hymn {from the Psalter for the season of the Church year}
The fast, as taught by holy lore,
We keep in solemn course once more:
The fast to all men known, and bound
In forty days of yearly round.
The law and seers that were of old
In diverse ways this Lent foretold,
Which Christ, all seasons’ King and Guide,
In after ages sanctified.
More sparing therefore let us make
The words we speak, the food we take,
Our sleep and mirth, —and closer barred
Be every sense in holy guard.
Avoid the evil thoughts that roll
Like waters o’er the heedless soul;
Nor let the foe occasion find
Our souls in slavery to bind.
In prayer together let us fall,
And cry for mercy, one and all,
And weep before the Judge’s feet,
And his avenging wrath entreat.
Thy grace have we offended sore,
By sins, O God, which we deplore;
But pour upon us from on high,
O pardoning One, thy clemency.
Remember thou, though frail we be,
That yet thine handiwork are we;
Nor let the honour of thy name
Be by another put to shame.
Forgive the sin that we have wrought;
Increase the good that we have sought:
That we at length, our wanderings o'er,
May please thee here and evermore.
Grant O thou Blessed Trinity,
Grant, O Essential Unity,
That this our fast of forty days
May work our profit and thy praise.
Amen.

52:3 Deus de cælo prospéxit super fílios hóminum: * ut vídeat si est intéllegens, aut requírens Deum.
52:4 Omnes declinavérunt, simul inútiles facti sunt: * non est qui fáciat bonum, non est usque ad unum.
52:5 Nonne scient omnes qui operántur iniquitátem, * qui dévorant plebem meam ut cibum panis?
52:6 Deum non invocavérunt: * illic trepidavérunt timóre, ubi non erat timor.
52:6 Quóniam Deus dissipávit ossa eórum qui homínibus placent: * confúsi sunt, quóniam Deus sprevit eos.

52:5 Shall not all the workers of iniquity know, * who eat up my people as they eat bread?
52:6 They have not called upon God: * there have they trembled for fear, where there was no fear.
52:6 For God hath scattered the bones of them that please men: * they have been confounded, because God hath despised them.

54:3 Contristátus sum in exercitatióne mea: * et conturbátus sum a voce inimíci, et a tribulatióne peccatóris.
54:4 Quóniam declinavérunt in me iniquitátes: * et in ira molésti erant mihi.
54:5 Cor meum conturbátum est in me: * et formído mortis cécidit super me.
54:6 Timor et tremor venérunt super me: * et contexérunt me ténebræ.
54:7 Et dixi: Quis dabit mihi pennas sicut colúmbæ, * et volábo, et requiéscam?
54:8 Ecce, elongávi fúgiens: * et mansi in solitúdine.
54:9 Exspectábam eum, qui salvum me fecit * a pusillanimitáte spíritus et tempestáte.
54:10 Præcípita, Dómine, dívide linguas eórum: * quóniam vidi iniquitátem, et contradictiónem in civitáte.
54:11 Die ac nocte circúmdabit eam super muros ejus iníquitas: * et labor in médio ejus, et injustítia.
54:12 Et non defécit de platéis ejus * usúra, et dolus.
54:13 Quóniam si inimícus meus maledixísset mihi, * sustinuíssem útique.
54:13 Et si is, qui óderat me, super me magna locútus fuísset, * abscondíssem me fórsitan ab eo.

Psalm 54 [2]
54:2 Hear, O God, my prayer, and despise not my supplication: * be attentive to me and hear me.
54:3 I am grieved in my exercise; * and am troubled, at the voice of the enemy, and at the tribulation of the sinner.
54:4 For they have cast iniquities upon me; * and in wrath they were troublesome to me.
54:5 My heart is troubled within me: * and the fear of death is fallen upon me.
54:6 Fear and trembling are come upon me: * and darkness hath covered me.
54:7 And I said: Who will give me wings like a dove, * and I will fly and be at rest?
54:8 Lo, I have gone far off flying away; * and I abode in the wilderness.
54:9 I waited for him that hath saved me * from pusillanimity of spirit, and a storm.
54:10 Cast down, O Lord, and divide their tongues; * for I have seen iniquity and contradiction in the city.
54:11 Day and night shall iniquity surround it upon its walls: * and in the midst thereof are labour, and injustice.
54:12 And usury and deceit * have not departed from its streets.
54:13 For if my enemy had reviled me, * I would verily have borne with it.
54:13 And if he that hated me had spoken great things against me, * I would perhaps have hidden myself from him.
54:14 But thou a man of one mind, * my guide, and my familiar.
54:15 Who didst take sweetmeats together with me: * in the house of God we walked with consent.
54:16 Let death come upon them, * and let them go down alive into hell.
54:16 For there is wickedness in their dwellings: * in the midst of them.
54:17 But I have cried to God: * and the Lord will save me.
54:18 Evening and morning, and at noon I will speak and declare: * and he shall hear my voice.
54:19 He shall redeem my soul in peace from them that draw near to me: * for among many they were with me.
54:20 God shall hear, * and the Eternal shall humble them.
54:20 For there is no change with them, and they have not feared God: * he hath stretched forth his hand to repay.
54:21 They have defiled his covenant, they are divided by the wrath of his countenance, * and his heart hath drawn near.
54:22 His words are smoother than oil, * and the same are darts.
54:23 Cast thy care upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: * he shall not suffer the just to waver for ever.
54:24 But thou, O God, shalt bring them down * into the pit of destruction.
54:24 Bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; * but I will trust in thee, O Lord.
℣. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
℟. As it was in the beginning, is now, * and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

55:7 Inhabitábunt et abscóndent: * ipsi calcáneum meum observábunt.
55:8 Sicut sustinuérunt ánimam meam, pro níhilo salvos fácies illos: * in ira pópulos confrínges.
55:9 Deus, vitam meam annuntiávi tibi: * posuísti lácrimas meas in conspéctu tuo.
55:9 Sicut et in promissióne tua: * tunc converténtur inimíci mei retrórsum:
55:10 In quacúmque die invocávero te: * ecce, cognóvi, quóniam Deus meus es.
55:11 In Deo laudábo verbum, in Dómino laudábo sermónem: * in Deo sperávi, non timébo quid fáciat mihi homo.
55:12 In me sunt, Deus, vota tua, * quæ reddam, laudatiónes tibi.
55:13 Quóniam eripuísti ánimam meam de morte, et pedes meos de lapsu: * ut pláceam coram Deo in lúmine vivéntium.

55:4 From the height of the day I shall fear: * but I will trust in thee.
55:5 In God I will praise my words, in God I have put my trust: * I will not fear what flesh can do against me.
55:6 All the day long they detested my words: * all their thoughts were against me unto evil.
55:7 They will dwell and hide themselves: * they will watch my heel.
55:8 As they have waited for my soul, for nothing shalt thou save them: * in thy anger thou shalt break the people in pieces.
55:9 O God, I have declared to thee my life: * thou hast set my tears in thy sight,
55:9 As also in thy promise. * Then shall my enemies be turned back.
55:10 In what day soever I shall call upon thee, * behold I know thou art my God.
55:11 In God will I praise the word, in the Lord will I praise his speech. * In God have I hoped, I will not fear what man can do to me.
55:12 In me, O God, are vows to thee, * which I will pay, praises to thee:
55:13 Because thou hast delivered my soul from death, my feet from falling: * that I may please in the sight of God, in the light of the living.
℣. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
℟. As it was in the beginning, is now, * and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

57:4 The wicked are alienated from the womb; they have gone astray from the womb: * they have spoken false things.
57:5 Their madness is according to the likeness of a serpent: * like the deaf asp that stoppeth her ears:
57:6 Which will not hear the voice of the charmers; * nor of the wizard that charmeth wisely.
57:7 God shall break in pieces their teeth in their mouth: * the Lord shall break the grinders of the lions.
57:8 They shall come to nothing, like water running down; * he hath bent his bow till they be weakened.
57:9 Like wax that melteth they shall be taken away: * fire hath fallen on them, and they shall not see the sun.
57:10 Before your thorns could know the brier; he swalloweth them up, * as alive, in his wrath.
57:11 The just shall rejoice when he shall see the revenge: * he shall wash his hands in the blood of the sinner.
57:12 And man shall say: If indeed there be fruit to the just: * there is indeed a God that judgeth them on the earth.

Psalm 58 [6]
58:2 Deliver me from my enemies, O my God; * and defend me from them that rise up against me.
58:3 Deliver me from them that work iniquity, * and save me from bloody men.
58:4 For behold they have caught my soul: * the mighty have rushed in upon me:
58:5 Neither is it my iniquity, nor my sin, O Lord: * without iniquity have I run, and directed my steps.
58:6 Rise up thou to meet me, and behold: * even thou, O Lord, the God of hosts, the God of Israel.
58:6 Attend to visit all the nations: * have no mercy on all them that work iniquity.
58:7 They shall return at evening, and shall suffer hunger like dogs: * and shall go round about the city.
58:8 Behold they shall speak with their mouth, and a sword is in their lips: * for who, say they, hath heard us?
58:9 But thou, O Lord, shalt laugh at them: * thou shalt bring all the nations to nothing.
58:10 I will keep my strength to thee: for thou art my protector: * my God, his mercy shall prevent me.
58:12 God shall let me see over my enemies: slay them not, * lest at any time my people forget.
58:12 And scatter them by thy power; * and bring them down, O Lord, my protector:
58:13 For the sin of their mouth, and the word of their lips: * and let them be taken in their pride.
58:13 And for their cursing and lying they shall be talked of, when they are consumed: * when they are consumed by thy wrath, and they shall be no more.
58:14 And they shall know that God will rule Jacob, * and all the ends of the earth.
58:15 They shall return at evening and shall suffer hunger like dogs: * and shall go round about the city.
58:16 They shall be scattered abroad to eat, * and shall murmur if they be not filled.
58:17 But I will sing thy strength: * and will extol thy mercy in the morning.
58:17 For thou art become my support, * and my refuge, in the day of my trouble.
58:18 Unto thee, O my helper, will I sing, for thou art God my defence: * my God my mercy.
℣. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
℟. As it was in the beginning, is now, * and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

61:9 Trust in him, all ye congregation of people: pour out your hearts before him. * God is our helper for ever.
61:10 But vain are the sons of men, the sons of men are liars in the balances: * that by vanity they may together deceive.
61:11 Trust not in iniquity, and cover not robberies: * if riches abound, set not your heart upon them.
61:12 God hath spoken once, these two things have I heard, that power belongeth to God, and mercy to thee, O Lord; * for thou wilt render to every man according to his works.
℣. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.

67:5 Rejoice ye before him: * but the wicked shall be troubled at his presence, who is the father of orphans, and the judge of widows.
67:6 God in his holy place: * God who maketh men of one manner to dwell in a house:
67:7 Who bringeth out them that were bound in strength; * in like manner them that provoke, that dwell in sepulchres.
67:8 O God, when thou didst go forth in the sight of thy people, * when thou didst pass through the desert:

67:14 If you sleep among the midst of lots, you shall be as the wings of a dove covered with silver, * and the hinder parts of her back with the paleness of gold.
67:15 When he that is in heaven appointeth kings over her, * they shall be whited with snow in Selmon.
67:16 The mountain of God is a fat mountain, a curdled mountain, a fat mountain; * Why suspect, ye curdled mountains?
67:17 A mountain in which God is well pleased to dwell: * for there the Lord shall dwell unto the end.

67:19 Yea for those also that do not believe, * the dwelling of the Lord God.

67:21 Our God is the God of salvation: * and of the Lord, of the Lord are the issues from death.
67:22 But God shall break the heads of his enemies: * the hairy crown of them that walk on in their sins.
67:23 The Lord said: I will turn them from Basan, * I will turn them into the depth of the sea:
67:24 That thy foot may be dipped in the blood of thy enemies; * the tongue of thy dogs be red with the same.
67:25 They have seen thy goings, O God, * the goings of my God: of my king who is in his sanctuary.
67:26 Princes went before joined with singers, * in the midst of young damsels playing on timbrels.
67:27 In the churches bless ye God the Lord, * from the fountains of Israel.
67:28 There is Benjamin a youth, * in ecstasy of mind.
67:28 The princes of Juda are their leaders: * the princes of Zabulon, the princes of Nephthali.

67:33 Sing to God, ye kingdoms of the earth: * sing ye to the Lord:

Homilía sancti Ambrósii Epíscopi
Lib. 7 in Lucæ cap. 11
Judæórum plebe damnáta, Ecclésiæ mystérium evidénter exprímitur, quæ in Ninivítis per pœniténtiam, et in regína Austri per stúdium percipiéndæ sapiéntiæ, de totíus orbis fínibus congregátur, ut pacífici Salomónis verba cognóscat. Regína plane, cujus regnum est indivísum, de divérsis et distántibus pópulis in unum corpus assúrgens.

Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to Matthew
Matt 12:38-50
In that time, some of the scribes and Pharisees answered him, saying: Master, we would see a sign from thee. Who answering said to them: An evil and adulterous generation seeketh a sign. And so on.
Homily by St. Ambrose, Bishop of Milan.
7th Bk. on Luke, ch. xii
After the condemnation of the Jewish people, the mystery of the Church is plainly declared in the figures of the repentant Ninevites, and of the Queen of the South. Like that Queen, the Church cometh from the uttermost parts of the earth, to hear the wisdom of the true Solomon, the Prince of Peace. A Queen she is, and a Queen of one indivisible realm, wrought into one body out of all nations, however diverse and distant.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. Rend your hearts and not your garments, and turn unto the Lord your God;
* For He is gracious and merciful.
℣. Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts, and let him return unto the Lord, and He will have mercy upon him.
℟. For He is gracious and merciful.

℣. Jube, domne, benedícere.

Itaque sacraméntum illud magnum est de Christo et Ecclésia. Sed tamen hoc majus est, quia illud in figúra ante præcéssit, nunc autem plenum in veritáte mystérium est. Illic enim Sálomon typus, hic autem Christus in suo córpore est. Ex duóbus ígitur constat Ecclésia: ut aut peccáre nésciat, aut peccáre désinat. Pœniténtia enim delíctum ábolet, sapiéntia cavet.
℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
℟. Frange esuriénti panem tuum, et egénos vagósque induc in domum tuam:
* Tunc erúmpet quasi mane lumen tuum, et anteíbit fáciem tuam justítia tua.
℣. Cum víderis nudum, óperi eum, et carnem tuam ne despéxeris.
℟. Tunc erúmpet quasi mane lumen tuum, et anteíbit fáciem tuam justítia tua.

And thus cometh that great mystery of Christ and the Church, a mystery more excellent now in the fulness of truth, than in the ancient type. For there they had in Solomon only a type of that which Christ is now in His own Person. And the Church is of two classes, whereof the one knoweth not how to sin, and the other sinneth no more. To wash away sin is the work of repentance, to eschew it that of wisdom.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. Deal thy bread to the hungry, and bring the poor and the wanderer to thine house.
* Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thy righteousness shall go before thee.
℣. When thou seest the naked, cover him; and hide not thyself from thine own flesh.
℟. Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thy righteousness shall go before thee.

Céterum Jonæ signum, ut typus Domínicæ passiónis, ita étiam grávium, quæ Judǽi commíserint, testificátio peccatórum est. Simul advértere licet et majestátis oráculum, et pietátis indícium. Namque Ninivitárum exémplo et denuntiátur supplícium, et remédium demonstrátur. Unde étiam Judǽi debent non desperáre indulgéntiam, si velint ágere pœniténtiam.
℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
℟. Abscóndite eleemósynam in sinu páuperum, et ipsa orábit pro vobis ad Dóminum:
* Quia sicut aqua extínguit ignem, ita eleemósyna extínguit peccátum.
℣. Date eleemósynam, et ecce ómnia munda sunt vobis.
℟. Quia sicut aqua extínguit ignem, ita eleemósyna extínguit peccátum.

Lastly, the sign of the Prophet Jonas, as it was a figure of the Lord's sufferings, was also a witness to the gravity of those sins which the Jews committed. At the same time, we see in these words of the Lord a declaration at once of His power, and of His love; for, by turning our eyes on the Ninevites, He showeth us a way of escape, while He setteth before us the horror of what will otherwise be our punishment. Even the Jews need not cease to hope for pardon, if only they would repent.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. Shut up alms in the breast of the poor, and it shall plead for you with the Lord.
* For, as water will quench fire, so alms maketh an atonement for sins.
℣. Give alms, and, behold, all things are clean unto you.
℟. For, as water will quench fire, so alms maketh an atonement for sins.
℣. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
℟. For, as water will quench fire, so alms maketh an atonement for sins.
