Pater noster, qui es in cælis, sanctificétur nomen tuum.  Advéniat regnum tuum.  Fiat volúntas tua, sicut in cælo et in terra.  Panem nostrum quotidiánum da nobis hódie.  Et dimítte nobis débita nostra, sicut et nos dimíttimus debitóribus nostris.  Et ne nos indúcas in tentatiónem: sed líbera nos a malo.  Amen.

Our Father, which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done, In earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, As we forgive them that trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil.  Amen.

Ave, María, grátia plena; Dóminus tecum: benedícta tu in muliéribus, et benedíctus fructus ventris tui Jesus. Sancta María, Mater Dei, ora pro nobis peccatóribus, nunc et in hora mortis nostræ.  Amen.

Hail, Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee: Blessed art thou among 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.

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. Credo in Spíritum Sanctum, sanctam Ecclésiam cathólicam, Sanctórum communiónem, remissiónem peccatórum, carnis resurrectiónem, vitam ætérnam.  Amen.

I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker 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, dead, and buried: He descended into hell; The third day he rose again from the dead: He ascended into heaven, And sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty: From thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.  I believe in the Holy Ghost: The holy Catholick Church: The Communion of Saints: The Forgiveness of sins: The Resurrection of the body: And the Life everlasting.  Amen.

Jam Lucis : Common Doxology

Jam lucis orto sídere,
Deum precémur súpplices,
Ut in diúrnis áctibus
Nos servet a nocéntibus.

Now doth the sun ascend the sky,
And wake creation with its ray,
Keep us from sin, O Lord most high,
Through all the actions of the day.

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

Curb thou for us the unruly tongue;
Teach us the way of peace to prize;
And close our eyes against the throng
Of earth’s absorbing vanities.

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

Oh, may our hearts be pure within,
No cherish’d madness vex the soul;
May abstinence the flesh restrain,
And its rebellious pride control.

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

So when the evening stars appear,
And in their train the darkness bring;
May we, O Lord, with conscience clear,
Our praise to thy pure glory sing.

Deo Patri sit glória,
Ejúsque soli Fílio,
Cum Spíritu Paráclito,
Nunc, et per omne sǽculum.  Amen.

To God the Father, glory be,
And to his sole-begotten Son,
Glory, O Holy Ghost, to thee,
While everlasting ages run.  Amen.

Psalm 117  :  Confitemini Domino

Confitémini Dómino quóniam bonus: * quóniam in sǽculum misericórdia ejus.

O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is gracious; * because his mercy endureth for ever.

2  Dicat nunc Israël quóniam bonus: * quóniam in sǽculum misericórdia ejus.

2  Let Israël now confess that he is gracious, * and that his mercy endureth for ever.

3  Dicat nunc domus Aaron: * quóniam in sǽculum misericórdia ejus.

4  Yea, let them now that fear the Lord confess, * that his mercy endureth for ever.

5  De tribulatióne invocávi Dóminum: * et exaudívit me in latitúdine Dóminus.

5  I called upon the Lord in trouble; * and the Lord heard me at large.

6  Dóminus mihi adjútor: * non timébo quid fáciat mihi homo.

6  The Lord is on my side; * I will not fear what man doeth unto me.

7  Dóminus mihi adjútor: * et ego despíciam inimícos meos.

7  The Lord taketh my part with them that help me; * therefore shall I see my desire upon mine enemies.

8  Bonum est confídere in Dómino: * quam confídere in hómine.

8  It is better to trust in the Lord, * than to put any confidence in man.

9  Bonum est speráre in Dómino: * quam speráre in princípibus.

9  It is better to trust in the Lord, * than to put any confidence in princes.

10  Omnes Gentes circuiérunt me: * et in nómine Dómini quia ultus sum in eos.

11  Circumdántes circumdedérunt me: * et in nómine Dómini quia ultus sum in eos.

11  They kept me in on every side, they kept me in, I say, on every side; * but in the Name of the Lord will I destroy them.

12  Circumdedérunt me sicut apes, et exarsérunt sicut ignis in spinis: * et in nómine Dómini quia ultus sum in eos.

12  They came about me like bees, and are extinct even as the fire among the thorns; * for in the Name of the Lord I will destroy them.

13  Impúlsus evérsus sum ut cáderem: * et Dóminus suscépit me.

13  Thou hast thrust sore at me, that I might fall; * but the Lord was my help.

16  Déxtera Dómini fecit virtútem: déxtera Dómini exaltávit me, * déxtera Dómini fecit virtútem.

16  The right hand of the Lord bringeth mighty things to pass: the right hand of the Lord hath the preeminence; * the right hand of the Lord bringeth mighty things to pass.

17  Non móriar, sed vivam: * et narrábo ópera Dómini.

17  I shall not die, but live, * and declare the works of the Lord.

18  Castígans castigávit me Dóminus: * et morti non trádidit me.

18  The Lord hath chastened and corrected me; * but he hath not given me over unto death.

19  Aperíte mihi portas justítiæ, ingréssus in eas confitébor Dómino: * hæc porta Dómini, justi intrábunt in eam.

19  Open me the gates of righteousness that I may go into them, and give thanks unto the Lord: * this is the gate of the Lord, the righteous shall enter into it.

20  Confitébor tibi quóniam exaudísti me: * et factus es mihi in salútem.

20  I will thank thee, for thou hast heard me, * and art become my salvation.

21  Lápidem, quem reprobavérunt ædificántes: * hic factus est in caput ánguli.

21  The same stone which the builders refused, * is become the head-stone in the corner.

22  A Dómino factum est istud: * et est mirábile in óculis nostris.

22  This is the Lord’s doing, * and it is marvellous in our eyes.

23  Hæc est dies, quam fecit Dóminus: * exsultémus et lætémur in ea.

23  This is the day which the Lord hath made; * let us rejoice and be glad therein.

24  O Dómine, salvum me fac, o Dómine, bene prosperáre: * benedíctus qui venit in nómine Dómini.

24  Help me now, O Lord: O Lord, send us now prosperity: * blessed be he that cometh in the Name of the Lord.

In the diocese of Angers, blessed Maurus, abbot and disciple of St. Benedict.  Beginning his discipline in infancy, he made great progress with so able a master, for while he was still under the saint’s instruction he miraculously walked upon the water, a prodigy unheard of since the days of St. Peter.  Sent later to France by St. Benedict, he built a famous monastery, which he governed for forty years, and after performing striking miracles, he rested in peace.

Then is said secretly the final Pater, unless Terce immediately follow; in which case the Dual Prayer thereof is immediately said.

Terce

Pater noster, qui es in cælis, sanctificétur nomen tuum.  Advéniat regnum tuum.  Fiat volúntas tua, sicut in cælo et in terra.  Panem nostrum quotidiánum da nobis hódie.  Et dimítte nobis débita nostra, sicut et nos dimíttimus debitóribus nostris.  Et ne nos indúcas in tentatiónem: sed líbera nos a malo.  Amen.

Our Father, which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done, In earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, As we forgive them that trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. Amen.

The Office of Prime ends here, unless it has been said in aggregation with Lauds so that the Marian Antiphon has not yet been said.  In this case, it is added on as follows:

℣. Dóminus ✠ det nobis suam pacem.
℟.  Et vitam ætérnam. Amen.

℣.  Grant unto us ✠ thy peace, O Lord.
℟.  And the life everlasting.  Amen.

Alma Redemptóris Mater, quæ pérvia cæli
Porta manes, et stella maris, succúrre cadénti,
Súrgere qui curat, pópulo: tu quæ genuísti,

Sumens illud Ave, peccatórum miserére.

Mother of Christ! Hear thou thy people’s cry,
Star of the deep, and portal of the sky!
Mother of Him Who thee from nothing made,
Sinking we strive and call to thee for aid;
Oh, by that joy which Gabriel brought to thee,
Thou Virgin first and last, let us thy mercy see.
