The Gloria in Excelsis The Greater Doxology (omitted during Lent, Advent and Mass for the dead) The priest stands at the middle of the altar, and says: Gloria in excelsis Deo, et in terra pax hominibus bonae voluntatis. Laudamus te, benedicimus te, adoramus te, glorificamus te. Gratias agimus tibi propter magn am gloriam tuam. Domine Deus rex coelestis, Deus Pater omnipotens. Domine Fili unigenite, Jesu Christe. Domine Deus, Agnus Dei, Filius Patris,   Glory to God on high, and on earth peace to men of good will. We praise Thee; we bless Thee; we adore Thee; we glorify Thee.

The Munda cor Meum The server takes the altar missal from the right side of the altar and places it on the left, or Gospel, side, as the priest, bowing at the center of the altar, says silently: Munda cor meum ac labia mea, omnipotens Deus, qui labia Isaiae Prophetae calculo mundasti ignito: ita me tua grata miseratione dignare mundare, ut sanctum Evangelium tuum digne valeam nuntiare. Per Christum Dominum nostrum. Amen.   Cleanse my heart and my lips, O Almighty God, Who cleansed the lips of the Prophet Isaiah with a burning coal.

Dominus sit in corde meo et in labiis meis: ut digne et competenter annuntiem Evangelium suum.   The Lord be in my heart and on my lips that I may worthily and fittingly proclaim His holy Gospel. At high Mass, where the deacon sings the Gospel, this is said rather than tha t just above: S: Jube, domne, benedicere.   S: Pray, sir, a blessing.

The priest kisses the Bible and replies: P: Per evangelica dicta deleantur nostra delicta.   P: May our sins be blotted out by the words of the Gospel.

The Homily

The Nicene Creed After the Homily, the faithful stand, and the priest says: Credo in unum Deum, Patrem omnipotentem, factorem coeli et terrae, visibilium omnium et invisibilium. Et in unum Dominum Jesum Christum, Filium Dei unigenitum. Et ex Patre natum ante omnia saecula. Deum de Deo, lumen de lumine, Deum verum de Deo vero. Genitum, non factum, consubstantialem Patri: per quem omnia facta sunt. Qui propter nos homines, et propter nostram salutem descendit de coelis.   I believe in one God, The Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible. And in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the Only-begotten Son of God. Born of the Father before all ages. God of God, Light of Light, true God of true God. Begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father, by Whom all things were made. Who for us men, and for our salvation, came down from heaven. Everyone genuflects during these words. ET INCARNATUS EST DE SPIRITU SANCTO EX MARIA VIRGINE: ET HOMO FACTUS EST.   AND WAS INCARNATE BY THE HOLY SPIRIT, OF THE VIRGIN MARY: AND WAS MADE MAN. Return to standing. Crucifixus etiam pro nobis; sub Pontio Pilato passus, et sepultus est. Et resurrexit tertia die, secundum Scripturas. Et ascendit in coelum: sedet ad desteram Patris. Et iterum venturus est com gloria judicare vivos et mortuos: cujus regni non erit finis.   He was crucified also for us, suffered under Pontius Pilate, and was buried. And on the third day He rose again, according to the Scriptures, and ascended into Heaven. He sits at the right hand of the Father, whence He will come again with glory to judge both the living and the dead. And of His kingdom there shall be no end. Et in Spiritum Sanctum, Dominum et vivificantem: qui ex Patre Filioque procedit. Qui cum Patre, et Filio simul adoratur et conglorificatur: qui locutus est per Prophetas. Et unam, sanctam, catholicam et apostolicam Ecclesiam. Confiteor unum baptisma in remissionem peccatorum. Et exspecto resurrectionem mortuorum. Et vitam ventura saeculi. Amem.   And in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and Giver of life, Who proceeds from the Father and the Son; Who together with the Father and the Son is no less adored and glorified, and Who spoke by the prophets. And in one, holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. I confess one baptism for the remission of sins. And I expect the resurrection of the dead. And the life of the world to come. Amen. The priest kisses the altar, turns toward the faithful, and says: P: Dominus vobiscum.   P: The Lord be with you. S: Et cum spiritu tuo.   S: And with thy spirit. P: Oremus.   P: Let us pray.

The Offertory The faithful sit down as the priest uncovers the chalice and reads the offertory verse. He then takes the paten, in which the host is laid, and offers the host, saying: Suscipe, sancte Pater, omnipotens aeterne Deus, hanc immaculatam hostiam, quam ego indignus famulus tuus offero tibi, Deo meo vivo et vero, pro innumerabilibus peccatis, et offensionibus, et negligentiis meis, et pro omnibus circumstantibus, sed et pro omnibus fidelibus christianis vivis atque defunctis: ut mihi, et illis proficiat ad salutem in vitam aeternam. Amen.   Accept, O Holy Father, almighty and eternal God, this spotless host, which I, Thy unworthy servant, offer unto Thee, my living and true God, to atone for my innumerable sins, offenses, and negligences, and for all here present; also for all faithful christians both living and dead, that it may profit me and them for salvation unto life everlasting. Amen. The priest makes the Sign of The Cross, here, with the paten, and then places the host on the corporal. At the right side of the altar, he blesses the water, then mixes together the water and wine. Deus, qui humanae substantiae dignitatem mirabiliter condidisti, et mirabilius reformasti: da nobis per hujus aquae et vini mysterium, ejusdivinitatis esse consortes, qui humanitatis nostrae fieri dignatus est particeps, Jesus Christus Filius tuus Dominus noster: Qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitate Spiritus Sancti Deus: per omnia saecula saeculorum. Amen.   O God, Who, in creating human nature, did wonderfully dignify it, and still more wonderfully restored it, grant that by the Mystery of this water and wine, we may be made partakers of His divine nature, Who vouchsafed to be made partaker of our human nature, even Jesus Christ, our Lord, Thy Son: Who with Thee, lives and reigns in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God: world without end. Amen. The priest offers the chalice. P: Offerimus tibi, Domine, calicem salutaris tuam deprecantes clementiam: ut in conspectu divinae majestatis tuae, pro nostra et totius mundi salute com odore suavitatis ascendat. Amen.   P: We offer Thee, O Lord, the chalice of salvation, beseeching Thy clemency, that it may ascend before Thy divine Majesty, as a sweet fragrance, for our salvation, and for that of the whole world. Amen. The priest makes the Sign of The Cross with the chalice, places the chalice on the corporal, covers it with the pall, bows, and says: In spiritu humilitatis, et in animo contrito suscipiamur a te, Domine, et sic fiat sacrificum nostrum in conspectu tuo hodie, ut placeat tibi, Domine Deus.   Accept us, O Lord, in our spirit of humility and contrition of heart, and grant that the sacrifice which we offer this day in Thy sight may be pleasing to Thee, O Lord God. The priest lifts his eyes to Heaven, joins his hands and so makes the Sign of The Cross over both the host and wine, invoking The Holy Spirit by saying: Veni, Sanctificator omnipotens aeterne Deus: et benedic hoc sacrificum tuo sancto nomini praeparatum.   Come, O Sanctifier, Almighty and Eternal God, and bless this sacrifice prepared for the glory of Thy holy Name.

Incensing the Offerings At solemn, high Mass, the priest blesses the incense: Per intercessionem beati Michaelis Archangeli, stantis a dextris altaris incensi, et omnium electorum suorum, incensum istud dignetur Dominus benedicere, et in odorem suavitatis accipere. Per Christum Dominum nostrum. Amen.   Through the intercession of Blessed Michael the Archangel, standing at the right hand of the altar of incense, and of all His elect may the Lord vouchsafe to bless this incense and to receive it in the odor of sweetness. Through Christ our Lord. Amen. The priest incenses the bread and wine: Incensum istud a te benedictum, ascendat ad re, Domine, et descendat super nos misericordia tua.   May this incense blessed by You, arise before You, O Lord, and may Your mercy come down upon us. The priest incenses the Crucifix, and the altar, saying: Dirigatur, Domine, oratio mea sicut incensum in conspectu tuo: elevatio manuum mearum sacrificium vespertinum. Pone, Domine, custodiam ori meo, et ostium circumstantiae labiis meis: ut non declinet cor meum in verba malitiae, ad excsandas excusationes in peccatis. Accendat in nobis Dominus ignem sui amoris, et flammam aeterne caritatis. Amen.   Let my prayer, O Lord, come like incense before You; the lifting up of my hands, like the evening sacrifice. O Lord, set a watch before my mouth, a guard at the door of my lips. Let not my heart incline to the evil of engaging in deeds of wickedness. May the Lord enkindle in us the fire of His love and the flame of everlasting charity. Amen.

Washing of the Hands (Psalm 25:6-12) Lavabo inter innocentes manus meas: et circumdabo altare tuum, Domine. Ut audiam vocem laudis: et enarrem universa mirabila tua. Domine, dilexi decorem domus tuae: et locum habitationis gloriae tuae. Ne perdas cum impiis, Deus animam meam: et cum viris sanguinum vitam meam: in quorum manibus iniquitates sunt: dextera eorum repleta est muneribus.   I will wash my hands among the innocence, and I go around Thine altar, O Lord, that I may hear the voice of praise: and tell of all Thy wondrous deeds. I have loved, O Lord, the beauty of Thy house and the place where dwells Thy glory. Take not my soul, O God, with the wicked, nor my life with bloodthirsty men. In whose hands are iniquities, their right hand is full of gifts. Ego autem in innocentia mea ingressus sum: redime me, et miserere mei. Pes meus stetit in directo: in ecclesiis benedicam te, Domine.   But I have walked in my innocence: redeem me, and have mercy on me. My foot stands on level ground; in the churches I will bless Thee, O Lord. Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Spiritui Sancto. Sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper: et in saecula saeculorum. Amen.   Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Prayer to The Most Holy Trinity Suscipe sancta Trinitas, hanc oblationem, quam tibi offerimus ob memoriam passionis, resurrectionis, et ascensionis Jesu Christi Domini nostri: et in monorem beatae Mariae semper Virginis, et beati Joannis Baptistae, et sanctorum Apostolorum Petri et Pauli, et N. (name of the Saint whose relics are in the Altar), et monium Sanctorum: ut illis proficiat ad honorem, nobis autem ad salutem: et illi pro nobis interceder e dignentur in coelis, quorum memoriam agimus in terris. Per eumdem Christum Dominum nostrum. Amen.   Receive, most Holy Trinity, this oblation which we are making to Thee in remembrance of the Passion, Resurrection, and Ascension of Our Lord Jesus Christ, and in honor of Blessed Mary, ever Virgin, Blessed John the Baptist, the Holy Apostles Peter and Paul, and of ____ and of all the Saints; that it may avail unto their honor and our salvation, and may they vouchsafe to intercede in heaven for us who honor their memory here on earth. Through the same Christ, our Lord. Amen.

The Orate Frates The priest kisses the altar, briefly turns toward the faithful, and says: P: Orate fratres, et meum ac vestrum sacrificium acceptabile fiat apud Deum Patrem omnipotentem.   P: Pray brethren, that my Sacrifice and yours may be acceptable to God the Father Almighty. S: Suscipiat Dominus sacrificium de manibus tuis ad laudem et gloriam nominis sui, ad utilitatem quoque nostram, totiusque Ecclesiae suae sanctae. Amen.   S: The Lord receive the Sacrifice from your hands, to the praise and glory of His Name, to our benefit, and that of all His holy Church. Amen. P: Amen.   P: Amen.

Prayers at The Consecration

Hanc Igitur (Oblation of the Victim) This first paragraph differs from Easter and WhitSunday The priest spreads his hands over the oblation, says the first two words aloud, and continues silently: Hanc igitur oblationem servitutis nostrae, sed et cunctae familiae tuae quaesumus, Domine, ut placatus accipias: diesque nostros in tua pace disponas, atque ab aeterna damnatione nos eripi, et in electorum tuorum jubeas grege numerari.

The priest places Our Lord on the corporal and kneels/genuflects, again, to adore Him. The priest uncovers the chalice and continues: Simili modo postquam coenatum est, accipiens et hunc praeclarum Calicem in sanctas ac venerabiles manus suas: item tibi gratias agens, benedixit, deditque discipulis suis, dicens: Accepite, et bibite ex eo omnes,   In like manner, after He had supped, taking also this excellent chalice into His holy and venerable hands, and giving thanks to Thee, He blessed it, and gave it to His disciples, saying: Take and drink ye all of this,

Supra quae propitio ac sereno vultu respicere digneris; et accepta habere, sicut i accepta habere dignatus es munera pueri tui justi Abel, et sacrificium patriarchae nostri Abrahae, et quod tibi obtulit summus sacerdos tuus Melchisedech, sanctum sacrificium, immaculatam hostiam.   Mindful, therefore, Lord, we, Thy servants, as also Thy holy people, of the same Christ, Your Son, our Lord, remember His blessed Passion, and also of His Resurrection from the dead, and finally of His glorious Ascension into heaven, offer unto Thy most excellent Majesty of Thine Own gifts, bestowed upon us, a pure Host (Victim), a holy Host, an unspotted Host, the holy Bread of eternal life and the chalice of everlasting salvation. Deign to regard with gracious and serene countenance, and to accept them, as Thou was graciously pleased to accept the gifts of Thy just servant, Able, and the sacrifice of Abraham our Patriarch, and that which Thy chief priest Melchisedech offered to Thee, a holy Sacrifice, an unspotted Victim.

For Blessings Supplices te rogamus, omnipotens Deus, jube haec perferri per manus sancti Angeli tui in sublime altare tuum, in conspectu dininae majertatis tuae: ut quoquot ex hac altaris participatione, sacrocanctum Filii tui Corpus et Sanguinem sumpserimus, omni benedictione coelesti et gratia repleamur. Per eumdem Christum Dominum nostrum. Amen.   Most humbly we beseech Thee, Almighty God, command these offerings to be borne by the hands of Thy holy Angels to Thine altar on high, in the sight of Thy divine Majesty, that as many as shall partake of the most holy Body and Blood of Thy Son at this altar, may be filled with every heavenly grace and blessing. Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.

For the Dead Memento etiam, Domine, famulorum famularumque tuarum N. et N. qui nos praecesserunt cum signo fidei, et dormiunt in somno pacis. Ipsis, Domine, et omnibus in Christo quiescentibus, locum refrigerii, lucis et pacis, ut indulgeas , deprecamur. Per eumdem Christum Dominum nostrum. Amen.   Remember also, Lord, Your servants and handmaids ____ and ____ who have gone before us with the sign of faith and rest in the sleep of peace. To these, O Lord, and to all who rest in Christ, we beg Thee to grant of Thy Goodness a place of comfort, light, and peace. Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.

For Happiness The priest raises his voice for the first three words: Nobis quoque peccatoribus famulis tuis, de multitudine miserationum tuarum sperantibus, partem aliquam, et societatem donare digneris, cum tuis sanctis Apostolis et Martyribus: cum Joanne, Stephano, Matthia, Barnaba, Ignatio, Alexandro, Marcellino, Petro, Felicitate, Perpetua, Agatha, Lucia, Agnete, Caecilia, Anastasis, et omnibus Sanctis tuis: intra quorum nos consortium, non aestimator meritim sed veniae, quaesumus, largitor admitte. Per Christum Dominum nostrum.   To us also, Thy sinful servants, confiding in the multitude of Thy mercy, vouchsafe to grant some part and fellowship with Thy Holy Apostles and Martyrs, with John, Stephen, Matthias, Barnabas, Ignatius, Alexander, Marcellinus, Peter, Felicitas, Perpetua, Agatha, Lucy, Agnes, Cecilia, Anastasia, and with all Thy Saints, into whose company we beseech Thee to admit us, not weighing our merits, but pardoning our offenses. Through Christ our Lord.

The Minor Elevaton Per quem haec omnia Domine, semper bona creas, sanctificas, vivificas, benedicis, et praestas nobis.   By Whom, O Lord, Thou always create, sanctify fill with life (quicken), bless and bestow upon us all good things. The priest uncovers the chalice, genuflects, and with the Host is his right hand, makes the Sign of the Cross over the chalice as he says the final doxology, as follows: Per ipsum, et cum ipso, et in ipso, est tibi Deo Patri omnipotenti, in unitat e Spiritus Sancti, omnis honor et gloria.   Through Him and with Him and in Him is to Thee, God the Father Almighty, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, all honor and glory. The priest puts down the Host, cover the chalice, genuflects and says: P: Per omnia saecula saeculorum.   P: World without end. S: Amen.   S: Amen.

Communion Oremus. Praeceptis salutaribus moniti, et divina institutione formati, audemus dicere:   Let us pray: Taught by Thy saving precepts, and following Thy divine institution, we are bold to say:

The Lord's Prayer The priest says audibly: Pater noster, qui es in coelis: sanctificetur nomen tuum: adveniat regnum tuum: fiat voluntas tua, sicut in coelo, et in terra. Panem nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie, et dimitte nobis debita nostra, sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris. Et ne nos inducas in tentationem:   Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy Name; Thy Kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation. S: Sed libera nos a malo.   S: But deliver us from evil. P: Amen.   P: Amen.

The Libera Nos P: Libera nos, quaesumus, Domine, ab omnibus malis, praeteritis, praesentibus, et futuris: et intercedente beata et gloriosa semper Virgine Dei Genitrice Maria, cum beatis Apostolis tuis Petro et Paulo, atque Andrea, et omnibus Sanctis, da propitius pacem in diebus nostris: ut ope misericordiae tuae adjuti, et a peccato simus semper liberi, et ab omni perturbatione securi.   P: Deliver us, we beg Thee, O Lord, from every evil, past, present, and to come; and by the intercession of the Blessed and glorious ever-Virgin Mary, Mother of God, and of the holy Apostles, Peter and Paul, and of Andrew, and of all the Saints mercifully grant peace in our days, that through the assistance of Thy mercy, we may be always free from sin and safe from all disturbance. The priest breaks the Host in half, over the chalice, then breaks off a particle, saying: Per eundem Dominum nostrum Jesum Christum Filium tuum. Qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitate Spiritus Sancti Deus. Per omnia saecula saeculorum.   Through the same Jesus Christ, Thy Son, our Lord, Who lives and reigns with Thee, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, world without end. S: Amen.   S: Amen.

Mixing the Body and Blood The priest makes the Sign of The Cross with the particle he just broke off, over the chalice: P: Pax Domini sit semper vobiscum.   P: The peace of the Lord be always with you. S: Et cum spiritu tuo.   S: And with thy spirit. He places the particle in the chalice, and says, inaudibly: P: Haec commixtio et consecratio Corporis et Sanguinis Domini nostri Jesu Christi, fiat accipientibus nobis in vitam aeternam. Amen.   P: May this mingling and consecration of the Body and Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ be to us who receive it effectual unto eternal life. Amen.

The Agnus Dei (The last clause of each stanza is modified in Masses for the the dead.) The priest covers the chalice, genuflects, bows low and strikes his breast each time as he says: Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi, misere nobis.   Lamb of God, Who takes away the sins of the world, have mercy on us. Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi, misere nobis.   Lamb of God, Who takes away the sins of the world, have mercy on us. Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi, dona nobis pacem.   Lamb of God, Who takes away the sins of the world, grant us peace.

Prayers for Holy Communion The priest prays the following, silently, bowing low, looking upon The Blessed Sacrament:

Prayer for Peace Domine Jesu Christe, qui dixisti Apostolis tuis: Pacem relinquo vobis, pacem meam do vobis: ne respicias peccata mea, sed fidem Ecclesiae tuae: eamque secundum voluntatem tuam pacificare et coadunare digneris: qui vivis et regnas Deus, per omnia saecula saeculorum. Amen.   O Lord Jesus Christ, Who has said to Thine Apostles: Peace I leave you, My peace I give you; regard not my sins, but the faith of Thy Church, and vouchsafe to grant her peace and unity according to Thy Will: Who lives and reigns God, world without end. Amen.

Prayer for Sanctification Domine Jesu Christe, Fili Dei vivi, qui ex voluntate Patris, cooperante Spiritu Sancto, per mortem tuam mundum vivificasti: lebera me per hoc sacrosanctum Corpus et Sanguinem tuum ab omnibus iniquitatibus meis, et universis malis: et fac me tuis semper inhaerere mandatis, et a te numquam separari permittas. Qui cum eodem Deo Parte et Spiritu Sancto vivis et regnas Deus in saecula saeculorum. Amen.   Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the living God, Who, by the will of the Father, with the cooperation of the Holy Spirit, has by Thy death given life to the world; deliver me by this Thy most sacred Body and Blood, from all my sins and from all evil. Make me always cleave to Thy Commandments, and never permit me to be separated from Thee, Who with the same God the Father and the Holy Spirit, live and reign, God, world without end. Amen.

Prayer for Grace Perceptio Corporis tui, Domine Jesu Christe, quod ego indinus sumere praesumo, non mihi proveniat in judicium et condemnationen; sed pro tua pietate prosit mihi ad tutamentum mentis et corporis, et ad medelam percipiendam. Qui vivis et regnas cum Deo Patre in unitate Spiritus Sancti Deus, per omnia saecula saeculorum. Amen.   Let not the partaking of Thy Body, Lord Jesus Christ, which I, though unworthy, presume to receive, turn to my judgment and condemnation; but through Thy Goodness, let it become a safeguard and an effective remedy, both for soul and body; Who with God the Father, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, live and reign God, world without end. Amen.

Communion of The Body for the Priest Panem coelestem accipiam, et nomen Domini invocabo.   I will take the Bread of heaven, and will call upon the Name of the Lord. With the Host is his left hand, the priest audibly for the first few words, says 3 times, striking his breast each time: Domine, non sum dignus, et intres sub tectum meum: sed tantum dic verbo, et sanabitur anima mea.   Lord, I am not worthy that Thou should enter under my roof; say but the word and my soul shall be healed. With the Host now in his right hand, the priest makes the Sign of the Cross over the paten: Corpus Domini nostri Jesu Christi custodiat animam meam in vitam aeternam. Amen.   The Body of our Lord Jesus Christ preserve my soul unto life everlasting. Amen. The priest reverently receives both halves of The Host.

Communion of The Precious Blood The priest uncovers the chalice, genuflects, collects any remaining Fragments from the Host off the corporal, and purifies the paten over the chalice, saying: Quid retribuam Domino pro omnibus quae retribuit mihi? Calicem salutaris accipiam, et nomen Domini invoacbo. Laudans invocabo Dominum, et ab inimicis meis salvus ero.   What return shall I render unto the Lord for all He has given me? I will take the chalice of salvation, and I will call upon the Name of the Lord. Praising I will call upon the Lord, and I shall be saved from all my enemies. The priest takes the chalice in his right hand, and making the Sign of the Cross says: Sanguis Domini nostri Jesu Christi custiodiat animam meam in vitam aeternam. Amen.   The Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ preserve my soul to life everlasting. Amen. The priest receives all the Precious Blood, and the Particle.

Communion of the Faithful Altar server recites Confiteor, if Holy Communion is distributed. S: Confiteor Deo omnipotenti, beatae Mariae semper Virgini, beato Michaeli Archangelo, beato Joanni Baptistae, sanctis Apostolis Petro et Paulo, omnibus Sanctis, et tibi Pater: quia peccavi nimis cogitatione verbo, et opere:   S: I confess to Almighty God, to Blessed Mary ever Virgin, to Blessed Michael the Archangel, to Blessed John the Baptist, to the Holy Apostles Peter and Paul, and all the Saints, and to you, Father, that I have sinned exceedingly in thought, word, deed: Strike their breast three times. Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa.   Through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault, Ideo precor beatam Mariam semper Virginem, beatum Michaelem Archangelum, beatum Joannem Baptistam, sanctos Apostolos Petrum et Paulum, omnes Sanctos, et te Pater, orare pro me ad Dominum Deum Nostrum.   and I ask Blessed Mary ever Virgin, Blessed Michael the Archangel, Blessed John the Baptist, the Holy Apostles Peter and Paul, all the Saints, and you Father, to pray for me to the Lord our God.

The priest says three times: Domine, non sum dignus, et intres sub tectum meum: sed tantum dic verbo, et sanabitur anima mea.   Lord, I am not worthy that Thou should enter under my roof; say but the word and my soul shall be healed.

Amen.   The Body of our Lord Jesus Christ preserve thy soul unto everlasting life. Amen. When everyone has received, the priest places the ciborium in the Tabernacle.

Prayers during the Ablutions Wine is poured into the chalice, which the priest drinks, and says: Quod ore sumpisimus, Domine, pura mente capiamus, et de munere temporali fiat nobis remedium sempiternum.   Grant, O Lord, that what we have taken with our mouth, we may receive with a pure mind; and from a temporal gift may it become to us an eternal remedy. The server pours water and wine over the fingers of the priest, into the chalice, who dries his fingers with the purificator cloth, and says, silently: Corpus tuum, Domine, quod sumpsi, et Sanguis, quem potavi, adhaereat visceribus meis: et praest; ut in me non ramaneat scelerum macula, quem pura et sancta refecerunt Sacramenta. Qui vivis et regnas in saecula saeculorum, Amen.   May Thy Body, O Lord, which I have received, and Thy Blood which I have drunk, cling to my inmost being; and grant that no stain of sin may remain in me, who has been fed with this pure and holy Sacrament; Who live reign, world without end. Amen. The priest drinks the water and wine mixture, then wipes the inside of the chalice (purifies it) with the same cloth, and covers it with the veil.

S: Et cum spiritu tuo.   S: And with thy spirit. P: Ite, Missa est.   P: Go, the Mass is ended. S: Deo gratias.   S: Thanks be to God.

The Final Blessing The priest says, silently, bowing before the altar: Placeat tibi, sancta Trinitas, obsequium servitutis meae: et praesta, ut sacrificium quod oculis tuae majestatis indignus obtuli, tibi sit acceptabile, mihique, et omnibus proquibus illud obtuli, sit te miserante propitiabile. Per Christum Dominum nostrum. Amen.   May the performance of my homage be pleasing to Thee, most Holy Trinity: and grant that the Sacrifice which I, though unworthy, have offered up in the sight of Thy Majesty, may be acceptable to Thee, and through Thy mercy, be a propitiation for me and for all whom I have offered it. Through Christ our Lord. Amen. The priest kisses the altar, turns and makes the Sign of The Cross: P: Benedicat vos omnipotens Deus Pater, et Filius, et Spiritus Sanctus.   May Almighty God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, bless you. S: Amen.   S: Amen.

The Last Gospel [John 1: 1-14] The faithful now stand for the last Gospel. P: Dominus vobiscum.   P: The Lord be with you. S: Et cum spiritu tuo.   S: And with thy spirit. P: Initium sancti Evangelii secundum Joannem.   P: The beginning of the holy Gospel according to St. John. S: Gloria tibi, Domine.   S: Glory be to Thee, O Lord. P: In principio erat Verbum et Verbum erat apud Deum, et Deus erat Verbum. Hoc erat in principio apud Deum. Omnia per ipsum facta sunt, et sine ipso factum est nihil quod factum est; in ipso vita erat, et vita erat lux hominum; et lux in tenebris lucet, et tenebrae eam non comprehenderunt.   P: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. Fuit homo missus a Deo cui nomen erat Joannes. Hic cenit in testimonium, et testimonium perhiberet de lumine, ut omnes crederent per illum. Non erat ille lux, sed ut testimonium perhiberet de lumine. Erat lux vera quae illuminat omnem hominem venientem in hunc mundum. In mundo erat, et mundus per ipsum factus est et mundus eum non cognovit. In propria venit, et sui eum non receperunt. Quotquot autem receperunt eum, dedit eis potestatem filios Dei fieri; his qui credunt in nomine eius, qui non ex sanquinibus, neque ex voluntate viri, sed ex deo nati sunt.   There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. Everyone genuflects: ET VERBUM CARO FACTUM EST   AND THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH, et habitabit in nobis; et vidimus gloriam eius gloiram quasi Unigenti a Patre, plenum gratiae et veritatis.   and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, the glory as of the Only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. S: Deo gratias.   S: Thanks be to God.

Starting with Pope Leo XIII, then Pope Pius X, and Pope Pius XI after him, it is asked that the following prayers be offered. The priest kneels on the steps before the altar and leads the faithful in these prayers.

The Ave (Hail Mary) (repeated three times) P: Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum; benedicta tu in mulieribus, et benedictus fructus ventris tui, Jesus.   P: Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. R: Sancta Maria, Mater Dei, ora pro nobis peccatoribus, nunc et in hora mortis nostrae. Amen.   R: Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

Salve Regina (Hail, Holy Queen) Priest and faithful say together All: Salve Regina, Mater misericordiae; vita dulcedo et spes nostra, salve. Ad te clamamus, exsules filii Evae. Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes in hac lacrimarum valle. Eia ergo, advocata nostra, illos tuos misericordes oculos ad nos converte. Et Jesum, benedictum fructum ventris tui, nobis, post hoc exsilium, ostende.   All: Hail, Holy Queen, Mother of mercy; our life, our sweetness and our hope. To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve. To thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this vale of tears. Turn then, most gracious advocate, thine eyes of mercy towards us. And after this our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Everyone strikes their breast three times as they say: All: O clemens, o pia, o dulcis Virgo Maria!   All: O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary! And then the priest continues: P: Ora pro nobis, sancta Dei Genitrix.   P: Pray for us, O holy Mother of God. R: Ut digni efficiamur promissionibus Christi.   R: That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

O God, Our Refuge and Our Strength P: Oremus.   Deus, refugium nostrum et virtus, populum ad te clamantem propitius respice; et intercedente gloriosa et immaculata Virgine Dei Genitrice Maria, cum beato Joseph, ejus Sponso, ac beatis Apostolis tuis Petro et Paulo, et omnibus Sanctis, quas pro conversione peccatorum, pro libertate et exaltatione sanctae Matris Ecclesiae, preces effundimus, misericors et benignus exaudi. Per eumdem Christum Dominum nostrum.   P: Let us pray.   O God, our refuge and our strength, look down in mercy on Thy people who cry to Thee; and by the intercession of the glorious and Immaculate Virgin Mary, Mother of God, of St. Joseph, her spouse, of Thy blessed apostles Peter and Paul, and of all the Saints, graciously hear our prayers for the conversion of sinners, and for the freedom and exaltation of Holy Mother Church. Through the same Christ our Lord. R: Amen.   R: Amen.

Prayer to the Archangel, St. Michael P: Sante Michael Archangele, defende nos in proelio; contra nequitiam et insidias diaboli esto praesidium. Imperet illi Deus, supplices deprecamur: tuque, Princeps militiae caelestis, Satanam aliosque spiritus malignos, qui ad perditionem animarum pervagantur in mundo, divina virtute in infernum detrude.   P: St. Michael, the archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do thou, prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who roam the world seeking the ruin of souls. R: Amen.   R: Amen.

Invocation of The Sacred Heart This invocation was added by Saint Pope Pius X to the prayers after Mass. (repeated three times) P: Cor Jesu sacratissimum.   P: Most Sacred Heart of Jesus. R: Miserere nobis.   R: Have mercy on us.
