Hymnus:
Dextrae Dei digitus, virtus spiritalis,
Nos defendat, eruat ab omnibus malis.
Ut nobis non noceat daemon infernalis:
Protegat, et nutriat, foveat sub alis.

Hymn:
The finger of God's right hand, the ghostly virtue still,
Us defend, and set us free from every kind of ill:
To the end the hellish ghost do us no hurtful deed:
Under his wings he us keep, and there us nurse and feed.

Adsit nobis, quaesumus Domine, virtus spiritus sancti: quae et corda nostra clementer expurget, et ab omnibus tueatur adversis. Per Dominum nostrum Iesum Christum filium tuum: Qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitate spiritus sancti Deus, per omnia saecula saeculorum.
|
Prayer:
We beseech thee O Lord, that the virtue of the Holy Spirit may be present unto us: the which may mildly both purge our hearts, and also defend us from all adversities, through our Lord Jesus Christ thy Son: Who liveth and reigneth, God, with thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, world without end.
|

R: Amen.
