First ReadingSirach 17:1-15

From the Book of Sirach

1The Lord created mankind out of earth,and turned them back to it again.2He gave them days by number, and a set time,and gave them authority over the things that are on it.3He endowed them with strength proper to them,and made them according to his own image.4He put the fear of man upon all flesh,and gave him dominion over beasts and birds.6He gave them counsel, tongue, eyes,ears, and heart to have understanding.7He filled them with the knowledge of wisdom,and showed them good and evil.8He set his eye upon their hearts,to show them the majesty of his works.10And they will praise his holy name,that they may declare the majesty of his works.11He added to them knowledge,and gave them a law of life for a heritage.12He made an everlasting covenant with them,and showed them his decrees.13Their eyes saw the majesty of his glory.Their ears heard the glory of his voice.14He said to them, “Beware of all unrighteousness.”So he gave them commandment, each man concerning his neighbor.15Their ways are ever before him.They will not be hidden from his eyes.

Responsorial PsalmPsalm 103:13-14, 15-16, 17-18

13Like a father has compassion on his children,so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him.14For he knows how we are made.He remembers that we are dust.

15As for man, his days are like grass.As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.16For the wind passes over it, and it is gone.Its place remembers it no more.

17But the Lord’s loving kindness is from everlasting to everlasting with those who fear him,his righteousness to children’s children,18to those who keep his covenant,to those who remember to obey his precepts.

GospelMark 10:13-16

From the Gospel according to Mark

13They were bringing to him little children,that he should touch them,but the disciples rebuked those who were bringing them.14But when Jesus saw it,he was moved with indignation and said to them,“Allow the little children to come to me!Don’t forbid them,for God’s Kingdom belongs to such as these.15Most certainly I tell you,whoever will not receive God’s Kingdom like a little child,he will in no way enter into it.”16He took them in his arms and blessed them,laying his hands on them.

Léctio libri Sapiéntiæ

Eccli 24:14-16

Ab inítio et ante sǽcula creáta sum, et usque ad futúrum sǽculum non désinam, et in habitatióne sancta coram ipso ministrávi. Et sic in Sion firmáta sum, et in civitáte sanctificáta simíliter requiévi, et in Jerúsalem potéstas mea.

Lesson from the book of Ecclesiasticus

Ecclus 24:14-16

Before all ages, in the beginning, He created me, and through all ages I shall not cease to be. In the holy Tent I ministered before Him, and in Sion I fixed my abode. Thus in the chosen city He has given me rest, in Jerusalem is my domain. I have struck root among the glorious people, in the portion of my God, His heritage, and my abode is in the full assembly of Saints.

PrefacePrefatio

de Beata Maria Virgine

Vere dignum et justum est, æquum et salutáre, nos tibi semper et ubíque grátias ágere: Dómine sancte, Pater omnípotens, ætérne Deus: Et te in veneratione beátæ Maríæ semper Vírginis collaudáre, benedícere et prædicáre. Quæ et Unigénitum tuum Sancti Spíritus obumbratióne concépit: et, virginitátis glória permanénte, lumen ætérnum mundo effúdit, Jesum Christum, Dóminum nostrum. Per quem majestátem tuam laudant Angeli, adórant Dominatiónes, tremunt Potestátes. Cæli cælorúmque Virtútes ac beáta Séraphim sócia exsultatióne concélebrant. Cum quibus et nostras voces ut admítti jubeas, deprecámur, súpplici confessióne dicéntes:

Blessed Virgin

It is truly meet and just, right and for our salvation, that we should at all times, and in all places, give thanks unto Thee, O holy Lord, Father almighty, everlasting God: and that we should praise and bless, and proclaim Thee, in the veneration of the Blessed Mary, ever-Virgin: Who also conceived Thine only-begotten Son by the overshadowing of the Holy Ghost, and the glory of her virginity still abiding, gave forth to the world the everlasting Light, Jesus Christ our Lord. Through whom the Angels praise Thy Majesty, the Dominations worship it, and the Powers stand in awe. The Heavens and the heavenly hosts together with the blessed Seraphim in triumphant chorus unite to celebrate it. Together with these we entreat Thee that Thou mayest bid our voices also to be admitted while we say with lowly praise:

CommunionCommunio

Beáta víscera Maríæ Vírginis, quæ portavérunt ætérni Patris Fílium.

Per Dominum…

Having received the aids conducive to our salvation, O Lord, we beseech You, grant that we may everywhere be protected by the patronage of blessed Mary, ever Virgin, in veneration of whom we have made these offerings to Your Majesty.

Through our Lord…
