Hymnus:
O Gloriosa domina,
Excelsa super sidera,
Qui te creavit provide,
Lactasti sacro ubere.
Quod Eva tristis abstulit,
Tu reddis almo germine:
Intrent ut astra flebiles,
Caeli fenestra facta es.
Tu regis alti janua,
Et porta lucis fulgida,
Vitam datam per virginem,
Gentes redemptae plaudite.
Gloria tibi Domine,
Qui natus es de virgine,
Cum Patre et sancto Spiritu,
In sempiterna saecula. Amen.

Hymn:
O Lady set in glory great,
Above the stars in high degree,
That gave him suck with sacred breast,
By providence that formed thee.
By thy fair blossom thou restored,
What lamentable Eve decayed:
That wailing wights might mount the stars,
The heavens' window thou art made.
The gate thou art of the high king,
The port of light that glisters clear,
Since life was given by a maid.
Let freed men show joyful cheer.
Glory be unto thee O Lord,
That born was of the virgin pure.
With the father and holy Ghost,
All ages ever to endure. Amen.

Canticum Zachariae (Luc. 1):
Benedictus Dominus Deus Israel: quia visitavit, et fecit redemptionem plebis suae.
Et erexit cornu salutis nobis: in domo David pueri sui.
Sicut locutus est per os sanctorum: qui a saeculo sunt prophetarum eius.
Salutem ex inimicis nostris: et de manu omnium qui oderunt nos.
Ad faciendam misericordiam cum patribus nostris: et memorari testamenti sui sancti.
Iusiurandum, quod iuravit ad Abraham patrem nostrum: daturum se nobis.
Ut sine timore de manu inimicorum nostrorum liberati: serviamus illi.
In sanctitate, et iustitia coram ipso: omnibus diebus nostris.
Et tu puer, propheta altissimi vocaberis: praeibis enim ante faciem Domini, parare vias eius.
Ad dandam scientiam salutis plebi eius: in remissionem peccatorum eorum.
Per viscera misericordiae Dei nostri: in quibus visitavit nos oriens ex alto.
Illuminare his, qui in tenebris et umbra mortis sedent: ad dirigendos pedes nostros in viam pacis.
|
Song of Zacharia (Luke 1):
Blessed be our Lord God of Israel: because he hath visited and wrought the redemption of his people.
And hath erected the horn of salvation to us: in the house of David his servant.
As he spake by the mouth of his holy Prophets: that are from the beginning.
Salvation from our enemies: and from the hand of all that hate us.
To work mercy with our fathers: and to remember his holy testament.
The oath, which he swore to Abraham our father: that he would give to us.
That without fear being delivered from the hand of our enemies: we may serve him.
In holiness and justice before him: all our days.
And thou child, shalt be called the prophet of the highest: for thou shalt go before the face of our Lord, to prepare his ways.
To give knowledge of salvation to his people: unto remission of their sins.
Through the bowels of the mercy of our God in which the orient from on high, hath visited us.
To illuminate them that sit in darkness, and in the shadow of death: to direct our feet into the way of peace.
