First ReadingTobit 6:10-11; 7:1bcde, 9-17; 8:4-9a

From the Book of Tobit

10But when they drew near to Rages,11the angel said to the young man,“Brother, today we will lodge with Raguel.He is your kinsman.He has an only daughter named Sarah.I will speak about her,that she should be given to you for a wife.

some verses are not read1They came to Ecbatana, and arrived at the house of Raguel.But Sarah met them;and she greeted them, and they her.Then she brought them into the house. verses 2–8 are not read9and Edna his wife and Sarah his daughter wept.They received them gladly;and they killed a ram of the flock, and served them meat.

But Tobias said to Raphael,“Brother Azarias, speak of those things ofwhich you talked about in the way,and let the matter be finished.”

10So he communicated the thing to Raguel.Raguel said to Tobias, “Eat, drink, and make merry:for it belongs to you to take my child.However I will tell you the truth.11I have given my child to seven men of our relatives,and whenever they came in to her,they died in the night.But for the present be merry.”

And Tobias said, “I will taste nothing here,until you all make a covenantand enter into that covenant with me.”

Raguel said, “Take her to yourself from now on according to custom.You are her relative, and she is yours.The merciful God will give all good success to you.”12And he called his daughter Sarah,and took her by the hand,and gave her to be wife of Tobias,and said, “Behold,take her to yourself after the law of Moses,and lead her away to your father.”And he blessed them.13He called Edna his wife,then took a book, wrote a contract, and sealed it.14Then they began to eat.

15And Raguel called his wife Edna,and said to her, “Sister,prepare the other chamber,and bring her in there.”16She did as he asked her, and brought her in there.She wept, and she received the tears of her daughter, and said to her,17“Be comforted, my child.May the Lord of heavenand earth give you favor for this your sorrow.Be comforted, my daughter.” some verses are not read4But after they were both shut in together,Tobias rose up from the bed,and said, “Sister,arise, and let’s pray that the Lord may have mercy on us.”5And Tobias began to say,“Blessed are you, O God of our fathers,and blessed is your holy and glorious name forever.Let the heavens bless you, and all your creatures.6You made Adam,and gave him Eve his wife for a helper and support.From them came the seed of men.You said, it is not good that the man should be alone.Let’s make him a helper like him.7And now, O Lord, I take not this my sister for lust, but in truth.Command that I may find mercy and grow old with her.”

8She said with him, “Amen.”And they both slept that night.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 128:1-2, 3, 4-5

1Blessed is everyone who fears the Lord,who walks in his ways.2For you will eat the labor of your hands.You will be happy, and it will be well with you.

3Your wife will be as a fruitful vine in the innermost parts of your house,your children like olive shoots around your table.

4Behold, this is how the man who fears the Lord is blessed.5May the Lord bless you out of Zion,and may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.

GospelMark 12:28-34

From the Gospel according to Mark

28One of the scribes cameand heard them questioning together,and knowing that he had answered them well,asked him, “Which commandment is the greatest of all?”

29Jesus answered, “The greatest is:‘Hear, Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one.30You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart,with all your soul,with all your mind,and with all your strength.’This is the first commandment.31The second is like this:‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’There is no other commandment greater than these.”

32The scribe said to him,“Truly, teacher, you have said well that he is one,and there is none other but he;33and to love him with all the heart,with all the understanding,all the soul, and with all the strength,and to love his neighbor as himself,is more important than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.”

34When Jesus saw that he answered wisely,he said to him, “You are not far from God’s Kingdom.”

No one dared ask him any question after that.

EpistleLectio

Léctio Epistolæ beáti Pauli Apóstoli ad Corinthios

1 Cor 11:23-29

Fratres: Ego enim accépi a Dómino quod et trádidi vobis, quóniam Dóminus Jesus, in qua nocte tradebátur, accépit panem, et grátias agens fregit, et dixit: Accípite, et manducáte: hoc est corpus meum, quod pro vobis tradétur: hoc fácite in meam commemoratiónem. Simíliter et cálicem, postquam cenávit, dicens: Hic calix novum Testaméntum est in meo sánguine. Hoc fácite, quotiescúmque bibétis, in meam commemoratiónem. Quotiescúmque enim manducábitis panem hunc et cálicem bibétis, mortem Dómini annuntiábitis, donec véniat. Itaque quicúmque manducáverit panem hunc vel bíberit cálicem Dómini indígne, reus erit córporis et sánguinis Dómini. Probet autem seípsum homo: et sic de pane illo edat et de calice bibat. Qui enim mandúcat et bibit indígne, judícium sibi mandúcat et bibit: non dijúdicans corpus Dómini.

Lesson from the first letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Corinthians

1 Cor. 11:23-29.

Brethren: I myself have received from the Lord - what I also delivered to you, - that the Lord Jesus, on the night in which He was betrayed, took bread, and giving thanks broke, and said, Take and eat. This is My Body which shall be given up for you; do this in remembrance of Me. In like manner also the cup, after He had supped, saying, This is the new covenant in My Blood; do this as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me. For as often as you shall eat this Bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the death of the Lord, until He comes. Therefore whoever eats this Bread or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily, will be guilty of the Body and the Blood of the Lord. But let a man prove himself, and so let him eat of that Bread and drink of the cup; for he who eats and drinks unworthily, without distinguishing the Body, eats and drinks judgment to himself.

The eyes of all look hopefully to You, O Lord; and You give them their food in due season.

℣.You open Your hand; and satisfy the desire of every living thing. Alleluia, alleluia.

John 6:56-57

℣.My Flesh is food indeed, and My Blood is drink indeed. He who eats My Flesh, and drinks My Blood, abides in Me and I in him.

SequenceSequentia

Thomæ de Aquino. (infra octavam ad libitum Celebrantis omitti potest, juxta Rubricas.)

Lauda, Sion, Salvatórem,

lauda ducem et pastórem

in hymnis et cánticis.

Quantum potes, tantum aude:

quia major omni laude,

nec laudáre súfficis.

Laudis thema speciális,

panis vivus et vitális

hódie propónitur.

Quem in sacræ mensa cenæ

turbæ fratrum duodénæ

datum non ambígitur.

Sit laus plena, sit sonóra,

sit jucúnda, sit decóra

mentis jubilátio.

Dies enim sollémnis agitur,

in qua mensæ prima recólitur

hujus institútio.

In hac mensa novi Regis,

novum Pascha novæ legis

Phase vetus términat.

Vetustátem nóvitas,

umbram fugat véritas,

noctem lux elíminat.

Quod in cœna Christus gessit,

faciéndum hoc expréssit

in sui memóriam.

Docti sacris institútis,

panem, vinum in salútis

consecrámus hóstiam.

Dogma datur Christiánis,

quod in carnem transit panis

et vinum in sánguinem.

Quod non capis, quod non vides, animosa fírmat fides, præter rerum órdinem.

Sub divérsis speciébus,

signis tantum, et non rebus,

latent res exímiæ.

Caro cibus, sanguis potus:

manet tamen Christus totus

sub utráque spécie.

A suménte non concísus,

non confráctus, non divísus:

ínteger accípitur.

Sumit unus, sumunt mille:

quantum isti, tantum ille:

nec sumptus consúmitur.

Sumunt boni, sumunt mali

sorte tamen inæquáli,

vitæ vel intéritus.

Mors est malis, vita bonis:

vide, paris sumptiónis

quam sit dispar éxitus.

Fracto demum sacraménto,

ne vacílles, sed meménto,

tantum esse sub fragménto,

quantum toto tégitur.

Nulla rei fit scissúra:

signi tantum fit fractúra:

qua nec status nec statúra

signáti minúitur.

Ecce panis Angelórum,

factus cibus viatórum:

vere panis filiórum,

non mitténdus cánibus.

In figúris præsignátur,

cum Isaac immolátur:

agnus paschæ deputátur:

datur manna pátribus.

Bone pastor, panis vere,

Jesu, nostri miserére:

tu nos pasce, nos tuére:

tu nos bona fac vidére

in terra vivéntium.

Tu, qui cuncta scis et vales:

qui nos pascis hic mortáles:

tuos ibi commensáles,

coherédes et sodáles

fac sanctórum cívium.

Amen. Allelúja.

O Sion, thy Redeemer praising,

Songs of joy to Him upraising,

Laud thy Pastor and thy Guide:

Swell thy notes most high and daring;

For His praise is past declaring, And thy loftiest powers beside.

‘Tis a theme with praise that gloweth, For the bread that life bestoweth Goes this day before us out;

Which, His holy supper taking,

To the brethren twelve His breaking None hath ever called in doubt.

Full, then, be our praise and sounding, Modest and with joy abounding Be our mind’s triumphant state;

For the festal’s prosecution,

When the first blest institution Of this feast we celebrate.

In the new King’s new libation, In the new law’s new oblation, Ends the ancient Paschal rite;

Ancient forms new substance chaseth, Typic shadows truth displaceth, Day dispels the gloom of night.

When He did at supper seated,

Christ enjoined to be repeated, When His love we celebrate:

Thus obeying His dictation,

Blood and wine of our salvation, We the victim consecrate.

‘Tis for Christian faith asserted, Bread is into flesh converted, Into blood the holy wine:

Sight and intellect transcending, Nature’s laws to marvel bending, ‘Tis confirmed by faith divine.

Under either kind remaining,

Form, not substance, still retaining, Wondrous things our spirit sees:

Flesh and blood thy palate staining, Yet still Christ entire remaining, Under either species.

All untorn for eating given,

Undivided and unriven,

Whole He’s taken and unrent;

Be there one, or crowds surrounding, He is equally abounding, Nor, though eaten, ever spent.

Both to good and bad ‘tis broken, But on each a different token or of life, or death attends:

Life to good, to bad damnation;

Lo, of one same manducation

How dissimilar the ends.

When the priest the victim breaketh, See thy faith in no wise shaketh, Know that every fragment taketh All that ‘neath the whole there lies:

This in Him no fracture maketh, ‘Tis the figure only breaketh, Form, or state, no change there taketh Place in what it signifies.

Bread, that angels eat in heaven, Now becomes the pilgrim’s leaven, Bread in truth to children given, That must ne’er to dogs be thrown.

He, in ancient types disguised, Was the Isaac sacrificed, For the feast a lamb devised, Manna to the Fathers shown.

Bread, whose shepherd-care doth tend us, Jesu Christ, Thy mercy send us, Do Thou feed us, Thou defend us, Lead us where true joys attend us, In the land where life is given:

Thou all ken and might possessing, Mercies aye to us largessing, Make us share Thy cup of blessing, Heritage and love’s caressing With the denizens of heaven.

Amen. Alleluia.

GospelEvangelium

Sequéntia sancti Evangéli secúndum Joánnem

Joann 6:56-59

In illo témpore: Dixit Jesus turbis Judæórum: Caro mea vere est cibus et sanguis meus vere est potus. Qui mandúcat meam carnem et bibit meum sánguinem, in me manet et ego in illo. Sicut misit me vivens Pater, et ego vivo propter Patrem: et qui mandúcat me, et ipse vivet propter me. Hic est panis, qui de cœlo descéndit. Non sicut manducavérunt patres vestri manna, et mórtui sunt. Qui mandúcat hunc panem, vivet in ætérnum.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to John

John 6:56-59.

At that time, Jesus said to the crowds of the Jews: My Flesh is food indeed, and My Blood is drink indeed. He who eats My Flesh, and drinks My Blood, abides in Me and I in him. As the living Father has sent Me, and as I live because of the Father, so he who eats Me, he also shall live because of Me. This is the Bread that has come down from heaven; not as your fathers ate the manna, and died. He who eats this Bread shall live forever.

It is truly meet and just, and profitable unto salvation, that we should at all times, and in all places, give thanks to Thee, O Holy Lord, Father Almighty, eternal God, through Christ, our Lord.
