Ad Primam

Incipit
℣. Deus in adiutórium meum inténde.
℟. Dómine, ad adiuvándum me festína.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
Laus tibi, Dómine, Rex ætérnæ glóriæ.
Start
℣. 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.
Hymnus
Iam lucis orto sídere,
Deum precémur súpplices,
Ut in diúrnis áctibus
Nos servet a nocéntibus.

Linguam refrénans témperet,
Ne litis horror ínsonet:
Visum fovéndo cóntegat,
Ne vanitátes háuriat.

Sint pura cordis íntima,
Absístat et vecórdia;
Carnis terat supérbiam
Potus cibíque párcitas.

Ut, cum dies abscésserit,
Noctémque sors redúxerit,
Mundi per abstinéntiam
Ipsi canámus glóriam.

Deo Patri sit glória,
Eiúsque soli Fílio,
Cum Spíritu Paráclito,
Et nunc et in perpétuum.
Amen.
Hymn
Now in the sun's new dawning ray,
Lowly of heart, our God we pray
That he from harm may keep us free
In all the deeds this day shall see.

May fear of him our tongues restrain,
Lest strife unguarded speech should stain:
His favouring care our guardian be,
Lest our eyes feed on vanity.

May every heart be pure from sin
And folly find no place therein:
Scant need of food, excess denied,
Wear down in us the body's pride.

That when the light of day is gone,
And night in course shall follow on.
We, free from cares the world affords,
May chant the praise that is our Lord's.

All laud to God the Father be,
All praise, Eternal Son, to thee:
All glory, as is ever meet,
To God the holy Paraclete.
Amen.
Psalmi {ex Proprio de Tempore}
Ant. Líbera me * de sanguínibus, Deus, Deus meus: et exsultábit lingua mea iustítiam tuam.
Psalmus 9(20-39) [1]
9:20 Exsúrge, Dómine, non confortétur homo: * iudicéntur gentes in conspéctu tuo.
9:21 Constítue, Dómine, legislatórem super eos: * ut sciant gentes quóniam hómines sunt.
9:22 Ut quid, Dómine, recessísti longe, * déspicis in opportunitátibus, in tribulatióne?
9:23 Dum supérbit ímpius, incénditur pauper: * comprehendúntur in consíliis quibus cógitant.
9:24 Quóniam laudátur peccátor in desidériis ánimæ suæ: * et iníquus benedícitur.
9:25 Exacerbávit Dóminum peccátor, * secúndum multitúdinem iræ suæ non quǽret.
9:26 Non est Deus in conspéctu eius: * inquinátæ sunt viæ illíus in omni témpore.
9:26 Auferúntur iudícia tua a fácie eius: * ómnium inimicórum suórum dominábitur.
9:27 Dixit enim in corde suo: * Non movébor a generatióne in generatiónem sine malo.
9:28 Cuius maledictióne os plenum est, et amaritúdine, et dolo: * sub lingua eius labor et dolor.
9:29 Sedet in insídiis cum divítibus in occúltis: * ut interfíciat innocéntem.
9:30 Óculi eius in páuperem respíciunt: * insidiátur in abscóndito, quasi leo in spelúnca sua.
9:30 Insidiátur ut rápiat páuperem: * rápere páuperem, dum áttrahit eum.
9:31 In láqueo suo humiliábit eum: * inclinábit se, et cadet, cum dominátus fúerit páuperum.
9:32 Dixit enim in corde suo: Oblítus est Deus, * avértit fáciem suam ne vídeat in finem.
9:33 Exsúrge, Dómine Deus, exaltétur manus tua: * ne obliviscáris páuperum.
9:34 Propter quid irritávit ímpius Deum? * dixit enim in corde suo: Non requíret.
9:35 Vides quóniam tu labórem et dolórem consíderas: * ut tradas eos in manus tuas.
9:35 Tibi derelíctus est pauper: * órphano tu eris adiútor.
9:36 Cóntere brácchium peccatóris et malígni: * quærétur peccátum illíus, et non inveniétur.
9:37 Dóminus regnábit in ætérnum, et in sǽculum sǽculi: * períbitis, gentes, de terra illíus.
9:38 Desidérium páuperum exaudívit Dóminus: * præparatiónem cordis eórum audívit auris tua.
9:39 Iudicáre pupíllo et húmili, * ut non appónat ultra magnificáre se homo super terram.
℣. Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.
℟. Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
Psalms {from the Proper of the season}
Ant. Deliver me * from blood, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall extol thy justice.
Psalm 9(20-39) [1]
9:20 Arise, O Lord, let not man be strengthened: * let the Gentiles be judged in thy sight.
9:21 Appoint, O Lord, a lawgiver over them: * that the Gentiles may know themselves to be but men.
9:22 Why, O Lord, hast thou retired afar off? * why dost thou slight us in our wants, in the time of trouble?
9:23 Whilst the wicked man is proud, the poor is set on fire: * they are caught in the counsels which they devise.
9:24 For the sinner is praised in the desires of his soul: * and the unjust man is blessed.
9:25 The sinner hath provoked the Lord, * according to the multitude of his wrath he will not seek him.
9:26 God is not before his eyes: * his ways are filthy at all times.
9:26 Thy judgments are removed from his sight: * he shall rule over all his enemies.
9:27 For he hath said in his heart: * I shall not be moved from generation to generation, and shall be without evil.
9:28 His mouth is full of cursing, and of bitterness, and of deceit: * under his tongue are labour and sorrow.
9:29 He sitteth in ambush with the rich, in private places, * that he may kill the innocent.
9:30 His eyes are upon the poor man: * he lieth in wait, in secret, like a lion in his den.
9:30 He lieth in ambush, that he may catch the poor man: * so catch the poor, whilst he draweth him to him.
9:31 In his net he will bring him down, * he will crouch and fall, when he shall have power over the poor.
9:32 For he hath said in his heart: God hath forgotten, * he hath turned away his face, not to see to the end.
9:33 Arise, O Lord God, let thy hand be exalted: * forget not the poor.
9:34 Wherefore hath the wicked provoked God? * for he hath said in his heart: He will not require it.
9:35 Thou seest it, for thou considerest labour and sorrow: * that thou mayst deliver them into thy hands.
9:35 To thee is the poor man left: * thou wilt be a helper to the orphan.
9:36 Break thou the arm of the sinner and of the malignant: * his sin shall be sought, and shall not be found.
9:37 The Lord shall reign to eternity, yea, for ever and ever: * ye Gentiles shall perish from his land.
9:38 The Lord hath heard the desire of the poor: * thy ear hath heard the preparation of their heart.
9:39 To judge for the fatherless and for the humble, * that man may no more presume to magnify himself upon earth.
℣. 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.
Psalmus 10 [2]
10:2 In Dómino confído: quómodo dícitis ánimæ meæ: * Tránsmigra in montem sicut passer?
10:3 Quóniam ecce peccatóres intendérunt arcum, paravérunt sagíttas suas in pháretra, * ut sagíttent in obscúro rectos corde.
10:4 Quóniam quæ perfecísti, destruxérunt: * iustus autem quid fecit?
10:5 Dóminus in templo sancto suo, * Dóminus in cælo sedes eius.
10:5 Óculi eius in páuperem respíciunt: * pálpebræ eius intérrogant fílios hóminum.
10:6 Dóminus intérrogat iustum et ímpium: * qui autem díligit iniquitátem, odit ánimam suam.
10:7 Pluet super peccatóres láqueos: * ignis, et sulphur, et spíritus procellárum pars cálicis eórum.
10:8 Quóniam iustus Dóminus, et iustítias diléxit: * æquitátem vidit vultus eius.
℣. Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.
℟. Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.
Psalm 10 [2]
10:2 In the Lord I put my trust: how then do you say to my soul: * Get thee away from hence to the mountain, like a sparrow?
10:3 For, lo, the wicked have bent their bow: they have prepared their arrows in the quiver, * to shoot in the dark the upright of heart.
10:4 For they have destroyed the things which thou hast made: * but what has the just man done?
10:5 The Lord is in his holy temple, * the Lord’s throne is in heaven.
10:5 His eyes look on the poor man: * his eyelids examine the sons of men.
10:6 The Lord trieth the just and the wicked: * but he that loveth iniquity, hateth his own soul.
10:7 He shall rain snares upon sinners: * fire and brimstone, and storms of winds, shall be the portion of their cup.
10:8 For the Lord is just, and hath loved justice: * his countenance hath beheld righteousness.
℣. 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.
Psalmus 11 [3]
11:2 Salvum me fac, Dómine, quóniam defécit sanctus: * quóniam diminútæ sunt veritátes a fíliis hóminum.
11:3 Vana locúti sunt unusquísque ad próximum suum: * lábia dolósa, in corde et corde locúti sunt.
11:4 Dispérdat Dóminus univérsa lábia dolósa, * et linguam magníloquam.
11:5 Qui dixérunt: Linguam nostram magnificábimus, lábia nostra a nobis sunt, * quis noster Dóminus est?
11:6 Propter misériam ínopum, et gémitum páuperum, * nunc exsúrgam, dicit Dóminus.
11:6 Ponam in salutári: * fiduciáliter agam in eo.
11:7 Elóquia Dómini, elóquia casta: * argéntum igne examinátum, probátum terræ purgátum séptuplum.
11:8 Tu, Dómine, servábis nos: et custódies nos * a generatióne hac in ætérnum.
11:9 In circúitu ímpii ámbulant: * secúndum altitúdinem tuam multiplicásti fílios hóminum.
℣. Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.
℟. Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

Ant. Líbera me de sanguínibus, Deus, Deus meus: et exsultábit lingua mea iustítiam tuam.
Psalm 11 [3]
11:2 Save me, O Lord, for there is now no saint: * truths are decayed from among the children of men.
11:3 They have spoken vain things every one to his neighbour: * with deceitful lips, and with a double heart have they spoken.
11:4 May the Lord destroy all deceitful lips, * and the tongue that speaketh proud things.
11:5 Who have said: We will magnify our tongue; our lips are our own; * who is Lord over us?
11:6 By reason of the misery of the needy, and the groans of the poor, * now will I arise, saith the Lord.
11:6 I will set him in safety; * I will deal confidently in his regard.
11:7 The words of the Lord are pure words: * as silver tried by the fire, purged from the earth, refined seven times.
11:8 Thou, O Lord, wilt preserve us: and keep us * from this generation for ever.
11:9 The wicked walk round about: * according to thy highness, thou hast multiplied the children of men.
℣. 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.

Martyrologium (anticip.)
April 18th 2019, the 14th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:

The Lord's Supper, when Christ Jesus, the day before he was crucified for our salvation, gave to his disciples the mysteries of his Body and Blood, to be celebrated by them.
At Rome, under the Emperor Cornmodus and the Prefect Perennius, the blessed Senator Apollonius. A slave informed upon him as being a Christian, and he was commanded to give an account of his faith. In order to do this he wrote an admirable treatise, which he read in the Senate but the Senate, nevertheless, ordered him to be beheaded for Christ's sake.
At Messina, the holy martyrs Eleutherius, Bishop of Illyrium, and Anthia his mother. He was famous for the holiness of his life, and for his power of working miracles. Under the Emperor Hadrian he was tortured upon a heated iron-bed, a grating, and a vessel filled with boiling oil, pitch, and rosin. These he overcame, and was thrown to the lions but by them he was left unhurt, and in the end his throat was cut along with that of his mother.
Likewise at Messina, the holy Prefect Corebus, who was converted to the faith by holy Eleutherius, and was slain with the sword.
At Brescia, the holy martyr Calocerus, who was converted to Christ by holy Faustinus and Jovita, and under the aforesaid Emperor Hadrian by his testimony finished a glorious contention.
At Cordova, the holy martyr Perfectus the Priest, who was killed by the Moors for holding forth against the Mahomedan religion. [The place of his death, which was in the year 850, is still called the Field of Truth.]
At Milan, holy Cardinal Galdin, Bishop of that see, who gave up his soul to God on finishing a discourse against heretics, [in the year 1176. He was a Cardinal Archbishop and a Legate of the Holy See.]
At Monte Senario, in Tuscany, [in the thirteenth century,] the blessed Confessor Amadeo, one of the seven founders of the Order of Servants of the Blessed Virgin Mary, whose feast we keep upon the 13th day of February. He was eminent for his burning love toward God.
℣. And elsewhere many other holy martyrs, confessors, and holy virgins.
℟. Thanks be to God.

℣. Precious in the sight of the Lord.
℟. Is the death of his saints.
Holy Mary and all the Saints, intercede for us with the Lord, our God, so that we may merit His help and salvation, who lives and reigns for ever and ever.

Regula
Ex Régula Sancti Patri Nostri Benedícti. Caput 62: De sacerdótibus monastérii

Si quis abbas sibi presbýterum vel diáconem ordinári petíerit, de suis elégat qui dignus sit sacerdótio fungi. Ordinátus autem cáveat elatiónem aut supérbiam, nec quicquam præsúmat nisi quod ei ab abbáte præcípitur, sciens se multo magis disciplínæ regulári subdéndum. Nec occasióne sacerdótii obliviscátur régulæ obœdiéntiam et disciplínam sed magis ac magis in Deum profíciat. Locum vero illum semper adténdat quod ingréssus est in monastério, præter offícium altáris, et si forte eléctio congregatiónis et volúntas abbátis pro vitæ mérito eum promovére volúerint. Qui tamen régulam decánis vel præpósitis constitútam sibi serváre sciat. Quod si áliter præsúmpserit, non sacérdos sed rebéllio iudicétur. Et sæpe admónitus si non corréxerit, étiam epíscopus adhibeátur in testimónio. Quod si nec sic emendáverit, clarescéntibus culpis, proiciátur de monastério, si tamen talis fúerit eius contumácia ut subdi aut obœdíre régulæ nolit.

Extra Chorum etiam laudabiliter dicitur lectio ex S. Regulæ; secus dicitur Lectio brevis.

Lectio brevis {ex Psalterio secundum tempora}
Isa 50:6-7
Fáciem meam non avérti ab increpántibus, et conspuéntibus in me. Dóminus Deus auxiliátor meus, et ídeo non sum confúsus.

In fine:
℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
Regula
The Rule of our Holy Father Benedict. Chapter 62: Concerning the Priests of the Monastery

If any abbot should wish to provide a priest or deacon for his monastery, let him choose from among his own monks one who is worthy to exercise the priesthood. And let the one ordained beware of self-importance and pride; and let him not presume to do anything except it be ordered him by the abbot, knowing himself much more subject to the discipline of the rule. And let him not on account of his priesthood be forgetful of the obedience and discipline of the rule, but let him progress in the Lord more and more. And let him always take that place which is his by seniority in the monastery, except as regards his service of the altar and unless by chance the choice of the community and the will of the abbot be pleased to promote him for his meritorious life; and even so let him know that the rules appointed him by the deans and provosts must be kept. But if he shall have presumed to act otherwise, let him be judged not as a priest but as rebellious; and if oft admonished he shall not correct himself, let the bishop himself at length be notified: but if even so he have not amended, his faults being manifest, let him be cast forth from the monastery, but only provided his contumacy shall have been such that he will not be subject to nor obey the rule.

Short reading {from the Psalter for the season of the Church year}

I have not turned away my face from them that rebuked me, and spit upon me. The Lord God is my helper, therefore am I not confounded.
