Hymn {Votive}
Thou heavenly, new Jerusalem,
Vision of peace in prophet's dream!
With living stones built up on high,
And rising to yon starry sky;
In bridal pomp thy form is crowned,
With thousand thousand angels round!
O bride, betrothed in happy hour,
The Father's glory is thy dower;
The bridegroom's grace is shed on thee
Thou queen all fair eternally;
To Christ allied, thy Prince adored,
Bright shining city of the Lord!
Behold with pearls they glittering stand
thy peaceful gates to all expand;
By grace and strength divinely shed
Each mortal thither may be led;
Who, kindled by Christ's love, will dare
All earthly sufferings now to bear.
By many a salutary stroke,
By many a weary blow that broke,
Or polished with a workman's skill,
The stones that form that glorious pile,
They all are fitly framed to lie
In their appointed place on high.
Fair and well pleasing in thy sight,
Parent most high, enthroned in light,
And for thine only Son most meet,
And thee, all-glorious Paraclete,
To whom praise, power, and glory rise
Forever through the eternal skies.
Amen.

2 Nec póterant sacerdótes íngredi templum Dómini, eo quod implésset maiéstas Dómini, templum Dómini.
3 Sed et omnes fílii Israél vidébant descendéntem ignem, et glóriam Dómini super domum: et corruéntes proni in terram super paviméntum stratum lápide, adoravérunt et laudavérunt Dóminum: Quóniam bonus, quóniam in sǽculum misericórdia eius.

Lesson from the book of Paralipomenon
2 Chr 7:1-5
1 And when Solomon had made an end of his prayer, fire came down from heaven, and consumed the holocausts and the victims: and the majesty of the Lord filled the house.
2 Neither could the priests enter into the temple of the Lord, because the majesty of the Lord had filled the temple of the Lord.
3 Moreover all the children of Israel saw the fire coming down, and the glory of the Lord upon the house: and falling down with their faces to the ground, upon the stone pavement, they adored and praised the Lord: because he is good, because his mercy endureth for ever.
4 And the king and all the people sacrificed victims before the Lord.
5 And king Solomon offered a sacrifice of twenty-two thousand oxen, and one hundred and twenty thousand rams: and the king and all the people dedicated the house of God.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. When the Temple was dedicated the people sang praise;
* And sweet in their mouths was the sound.

7 Sanctificávit quoque Sálomon médium átrii ante templum Dómini: obtúlerat enim ibi holocáusta, et ádipes pacificórum: quia altáre ǽneum, quod fécerat, non póterat sustinére holocáusta et sacrifícia et ádipes.
8 Fecit ergo Sálomon solemnitátem in témpore illo septem diébus, et omnis Israël cum eo, ecclésia magna valde ab intróitu Emath usque ad Torréntem Ægýpti.

6 And the priests stood in their offices: and the Levites with the instruments of music of the Lord, which king David made to praise the Lord: because his mercy endureth for ever, singing the hymns of David by their ministry: and the priests sounded with trumpets before them, and all Israel stood.
7 Solomon also sanctified the middle of the court before the temple of the Lord: for he offered there the holocausts, and the fat of the peace offerings: because the brazen altar, which he had made, could not hold the holocausts and the sacrifices and the fat:
8 And Solomon kept the solemnity at that time seven days, and all Israel with him, a very great congregation, from the entrance of Emath to the torrent of Egypt.
9 And he made on the eighth day a solemn assembly, because he had kept the dedication of the altar seven days, and had celebrated the solemnity seven days.

12 And the Lord appeared to him by night, and said: I have heard thy prayer, and I have chosen this place to myself for a house of sacrifice.
13 If I shut up heaven, and there fall no rain, or if I give orders, and command the locust to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people:
14 And my people, upon whom my name is called, being converted, shall make supplication to me, and seek out my face, and do penance for their most wicked ways: then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sins and will heal their land.
15 My eyes also shall be open, and my ears attentive to the prayer of him that shall pray in this place.

Psalm 87 [6]
87:2 Lord, the God of my salvation: * I have cried in the day, and in the night before thee.
87:3 Let my prayer come in before thee: * incline thy ear to my petition.
87:4 For my soul is filled with evils: * and my life hath drawn nigh to hell.
87:5 I am counted among them that go down to the pit: * I am become as a man without help, free among the dead.
87:6 Like the slain sleeping in the sepulchres, whom thou rememberest no more: * and they are cast off from thy hand.
87:7 They have laid me in the lower pit: * in the dark places, and in the shadow of death.
87:8 Thy wrath is strong over me: * and all thy waves thou hast brought in upon me.
87:9 Thou hast put away my acquaintance far from me: * they have set me an abomination to themselves.
87:9 I was delivered up, and came not forth: * my eyes languished through poverty.
87:10 All the day I cried to thee, O Lord: * I stretched out my hands to thee.
87:11 Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? * or shall physicians raise to life, and give praise to thee?
87:12 Shall any one in the sepulchre declare thy mercy: * and thy truth in destruction?
87:13 Shall thy wonders be known in the dark; * and thy justice in the land of forgetfulness?
87:14 But I, O Lord, have cried to thee: * and in the morning my prayer shall prevent thee.
87:15 Lord, why castest thou off my prayer: * why turnest thou away thy face from me?
87:16 I am poor, and in labours from my youth: * and being exalted have been humbled and troubled.
87:17 Thy wrath hath come upon me: * and thy terrors have troubled me.

Sermo sancti Augustini Episcopi
Sermo 252 de Tempore
Quotiescúmque, fratres caríssimi, altáris vel templi festivitátem cólimus, si fidéliter ac diligénter atténdimus et sancte ac iuste vívimus, quidquid in templis manufáctis ágitur, totum in nobis spiritáli ædificatióne complétur. Non enim mentítus est ille qui dixit: Templum enim Dei sanctum est, quod estis vos; et íterum: Nescitis quia córpora vestra templum sunt Spíritus Sancti, qui in vobis est? Et ideo, fratres caríssimi, quia, nullis præcedéntibus méritis, per grátiam Dei merúimus fíeri templum Dei, quantum possumus cum ipsíus adiutório labóremus, ne Dóminus noster in templo suo, hoc est, in nobis ipsis, invéniat quod óculos suæ maiestátis offéndat.
℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
℟. Orántibus in loco isto,
* Dimítte peccáta pópuli tui, Deus, et osténde eis viam bonam per quam ámbulent, et da glóriam in loco isto.
℣. Qui regis Israël inténde, qui dedúcis velut ovem Ioseph, qui sedes super Chérubim.

From the Sermons of St. Augustine, Bishop of Hippo.
252nd for the Season.
Dearly beloved brethren, as often as we keep the Dedication-Feast of some Altar or Church, if we think faithfully and carefully, and live holily and righteously, that which is done in temples made with hands, is done in our soul by a spiritual building. He at the Dedication of the Temple. lied not who said: The temple of God is holy; which temple ye are i Cor. iii. 17, and again: Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost, Which is in you, vi. 19. And therefore, dearly beloved brethren, since by the grace of God, without any foregoing deserts of our own, we have been made meet to become the Temple of God, let us work as hard as we can, with His help, that our Lord may not find in His Temple, that is, in us, anything to offend the eyes of His Majesty.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. If they pray toward this place,
* Forgive the sin of thy people, O God, and teach them the good way wherein they should walk, and manifest forth thy glory in this place.
℣. Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock, thou that sittest upon the cherubim.
℟. Forgive the sin of thy people, O God, and teach them the good way wherein they should walk, and manifest forth thy glory in this place.

Sed habitáculum cordis nostri evacuétur vítiis, et virtútibus repleátur; claudátur diabolo, et aperiátur Christo. Et ita labóremus, ut nobis bonórum óperum clávibus iánuam regni cæléstis aperíre possímus. Sicut enim malis opéribus, quasi quibúsdam seris ac véctibus, vitæ nobis ianua claudítur; ita, absque dubio, bonis opéribus aperítur. Et ídeo, fratres caríssimi, unusquísque consíderet consciéntiam suam, et, quando se áliquo crímine vulnerátum esse cognóverit, prius oratiónibus, ieiúniis vel eleemósynis stúdeat mundáre consciéntiam suam; et sic Eucharístiam præsúmat accípere.
℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

Let the Tabernacle of our heart be swept clean of vices and filled with virtues. Let it be locked to the devil, and thrown open to Christ. Yea, let us so work, that we may be able to open the door of the kingdom of heaven with the key of good works. For even as evil works are so many bolts and bars to close against us the entrance into life, so beyond doubt are good works the key thereto. And therefore, dearly beloved brethren, let each one look into his own conscience, and when he findeth the wounds of guilt there, let him first strive by prayers, fasting, or alms deeds to purge his conscience, and so let him dare to take the Eucharist.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. How dreadful is this place!
* Surely this is none other but the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.

Si enim, agnóscens reátum suum, ipse se a divíno altári subtráxerit, cito ad indulgéntiam divínæ misericórdiæ pervéniet.

For if he acknowledge his iniquity, and withdraw himself from the Altar of God, he will soon attain unto the mercy of the pardon of God, for, as he that exalted himself shall be abased, so shall he that humbleth himself be exalted. Luke xiv. n. He who, as I have said, acknowledging his iniquity, withdraweth himself through lowliness from the Altar of the Church, till he have mended his life, need have but little fear that he will be excommunicated from the eternal marriage supper in heaven.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. Jacob rose up early in the morning, and set up the stone for a pillar, and poured oil upon the top of it, and vowed a vow unto the Lord.

Luc 19:1-10
In illo témpore: Ingréssus Iesus perambulábat Iéricho. Et ecce vir nómine Zachǽus: et hic princeps erat publicanórum, et ipse dives. Et réliqua.
Homilía sancti Ambrósii Epíscopi
Lib. 8 in Luc., prope finem
Zachǽus, statúra pusíllus, hoc est, nulla nobilitátis ingénitæ dignitáte sublímis, éxiguus méritis sicut pópulus natiónum, audíto Dómini Salvatóris advéntu, quem sui non recéperant, vidére cupiébat. Sed nemo fácile Iesum videt; nemo potest Iesum vidére constitútus in terra. Et, quia non prophétas, non legem habébat, tamquam formæ grátiam naturális, ascéndit in sycómorum, vanitátem scílicet Iudæórum vestígio suo próterens, erráta quoque córrigens superióris ætátis. Et ídeo Iesum in interióris domus recépit hospítio.
℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
℟. Domus mea, domus oratiónis vocábitur, dicit Dóminus: in ea omnis qui petit, áccipit; et qui quærit, ínvenit;

From the Holy Gospel according to Luke
Luke 19:1-10
At that time: Jesus entered and passed through Jericho. And, behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich. And so on.
Homily by St. Ambrose, Bishop of Milan.
Bk. viii. on Luke.
Zacchaeus was little of stature, that is, he was not raised aloft among men by nobility of birth, and, like the most of the world, he possessed few merits. When he heard that the Lord and Saviour, Who had come unto His Own, and Whom His Own had not received, John i. 11, was coming, he desired to see Him. But the sight of Jesus is not easy; to any on the earth it is impossible. And since Zacchaeus had neither the Prophets, nor yet the Law, as a gracious help to his nature, he climbed up into a sycamore tree, raising his feet above the vanity of the Jews, and straightening the crooked branches of his former life, and therefore he received Jesus to lodge within his house.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. My house shall be called the house of prayer, saith the Lord. Therein, he that asketh, receiveth; he that seeketh, findeth;
* And to him that knocketh, it shall be opened.
℣. Ask, and ye shall receive; seek, and ye shall find.
℟. And to him that knocketh, it shall be opened.

℣. Iube, Dómine, benedícere.
Benedictio. Divínum auxílium máneat semper nobíscum. Amen.

Et bene ascéndit in árborem, ut arbor bona bonos fructus fáceret, ac, naturáli excísus oleástro et contra natúram insértus in bonam olívam, fructum posset legis afférre. Radix enim sancta, etsi rami inútiles. Quorum infructuósam glóriam plebs géntium, fide resurrectiónis, quasi quadam córporis elevatióne, transcéndit. Zachǽus ergo in sycómoro, cæcus in via: quorum álterum Dóminus miseratúrus exspéctat, álterum mansiónis suæ claritáte nobílitat; álterum sanatúrus intérrogat, apud álterum se, non invitátus, invítat. Sciébat enim úberem hospítii sui esse mercédem. Sed tamen, etsi nondum vocem invitántis audíerat, iam víderat afféctum.
℣. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.
℟. Deo grátias.
℟. Lápides pretiósi omnes muri tui,

He did well to climb up into a tree, that a good tree might bring forth good fruits, Matth. vii. 17, and that the slip of the wild olive, grafted, contrary to nature, into the good olive, might bring forth the fruits of the law. Rom. xi. 17, 24. For the root is holy, however unprofitable the branches. Their barren beauty hath now been overshadowed by the belief of the Gentiles in the Resurrection, as by a material upgrowth. Zacchaeus, then, was in the sycamore tree, and the blind man by the way-side, xviii. 35. For the one, Jesus stood waiting to show mercy, and asked him before He healed him, what he would that He should do for him; being unbidden of the other, He bade Himself to be his Guest, knowing how rich was the reward of receiving Him. Nevertheless, albeit He had heard no words of invitation, yet had He seen how his heart went.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.
℟. All thy walls are of stones most precious.
* The towers of Jerusalem shall be built up with jewels.
℣. The gates of Jerusalem shall be built up with the sapphire stone, and the emerald, and all her walls round about with stones most precious.

But lest we should seem haughtily to pass by the poor blind man, and to hurry on to the rich one, let us stand waiting for him, as the Lord stood and waited; let us ask of him, as Christ asked of him. Let us ask, because we are ignorant; Christ asked, because He knew. Let us ask, that we may know whence he received his cure; Christ asked, that all of us may know from one example where through we are to earn a sight of the Lord. Christ asked, that we might believe that none, save they that confess Him, can be saved.
℣. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
℟. Thanks be to God.

Chapter Hymn Verse {Votive}
Rev 21:2
I saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a Bride adorned for her husband.
℟. Thanks be to God.
Hymn
From highest heaven, the Father's Son,
Descending like that mystic stone
Cut from a mountain without hands,
Came down below, and filled all lands;
Uniting, midway in the sky,
His house on earth, and house on high.
That house on high, it ever rings
With praises of the King of kings;
Forever there, on harps divine,
They hymn th' eternal One and Trine;
We, here below, the strain prolong,
And faintly echo Sion's song.
O Lord of lords invisible!
With thy pure light this temple fill:
Hither, oft as invoked, descend;
Here to thy people's prayer attend;
Here, through all hearts, forevermore,
thy Spirit's quick'ning graces pour.
Here may the faithful, day by day,
Their hearts' adoring homage pay;
And here receive from thy dear love
The blessings of that home above;
Till loosened from this mortal chain,
Its everlasting joys they gain.
To God the Father, glory due
Be paid by all the heavenly host;
And to his only Son most true;
With thee, O mighty Holy Ghost!
To whom, praise, power, and blessing be,
Through th' ages of eternity,
Amen.
℣. This is the house of God, stoutly builded.
℟. Well founded upon a sure rock.

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.

Chapter Hymn Verse {Votive}
Rev 21:2
I saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a Bride adorned for her husband.
℟. Thanks be to God.
Hymn
Thou heavenly, new Jerusalem,
Vision of peace in prophet's dream!
With living stones built up on high,
And rising to yon starry sky;
In bridal pomp thy form is crowned,
With thousand thousand angels round!
O bride, betrothed in happy hour,
The Father's glory is thy dower;
The bridegroom's grace is shed on thee
Thou queen all fair eternally;
To Christ allied, thy Prince adored,
Bright shining city of the Lord!
Behold with pearls they glittering stand
thy peaceful gates to all expand;
By grace and strength divinely shed
Each mortal thither may be led;
Who, kindled by Christ's love, will dare
All earthly sufferings now to bear.
By many a salutary stroke,
By many a weary blow that broke,
Or polished with a workman's skill,
The stones that form that glorious pile,
They all are fitly framed to lie
In their appointed place on high.
Fair and well pleasing in thy sight,
Parent most high, enthroned in light,
And for thine only Son most meet,
And thee, all-glorious Paraclete,
To whom praise, power, and glory rise
Forever through the eternal skies.
Amen.
℣. Holiness becometh thine house, O Lord.
℟. For ever.

Hymn
Before the ending of the day,
Creator of the world, we pray
That with thy wonted favor thou
Wouldst be our guard and keeper now.
From all ill dreams defend our eyes,
From nightly fears and fantasies;
Tread under foot our ghostly foe,
That no pollution we may know.
O Father, that we ask be done,
Through Jesus Christ, thine only Son;
Who, with the Holy Ghost and thee,
Doth live and reign eternally.
Amen.
