Hymnus

Jam lucis orto sídere,

Deum precémur súpplices,

Ut in diúrnis áctibus

Nos servet a nocéntibus.

Linguam refrénans témperet,

Ne litis horror ínsonet:

Visum fovéndo cóntegat,

Ne vanitátes háuriat.

Sint pura cordis íntima,

Absístat et vecórdia;

Carnis terat supérbiam

Potus cibíque párcitas.

Ut, cum dies abscésserit,

Noctémque sors redúxerit,

Mundi per abstinéntiam

Ipsi canámus glóriam.

Deo Patri sit glória,

Ejúsque soli Fílio,

Cum Spíritu Paráclito,

Nunc et per omne sǽculum.

Amen.

Now in the sun's new dawning ray,

Lowly of heart, our God we pray

That he from harm may keep us free

In all the deeds this day shall see.

May fear of him our tongues restrain,

Lest strife unguarded speech should stain:

His favouring care our guardian be,

Lest our eyes feed on vanity.

May every heart be pure from sin

And folly find no place therein:

Scant need of food, excess denied,

Wear down in us the body's pride.

That when the light of day is gone,

And night in course shall follow on.

We, free from cares the world affords,

May chant the praise that is our Lord's.

All laud to God the Father be,

All praise, Eternal Son, to thee:

All glory, as is ever meet,

To God the holy Paraclete.

Amen.

Romæ, via Portuénsi, sanctórum Mártyrum Felícis, Simplícii, Faustíni et Beatrícis, tempóribus Diocletiáni Imperatóris. Horum duo primi, post multa et divérsa supplícia, jussi sunt capitálem subíre senténtiam; Beátrix vero, eórum soror, in confessióne Christi est in cárcere præfocáta.

Romæ prætérea sanctórum Mártyrum Lucíllæ et Floræ Vírginum, Eugénii, Antoníni, Theodóri, et Sociórum decem et octo; qui sub Galliéno Imperatóre martýrium obiérunt.

Item Romæ sanctæ Serápiæ Vírginis, quæ, sub Hadriáno Príncipe, cum esset trádita duóbus lascívis juvénibus et mínime potuísset illúdi, nec póstmodum ardéntibus fácibus inflammári, Derílli Júdicis jussu fústibus cæsa est, dehinc gládio decolláta. Ejus corpus a beáta Sabína in suo monuménto, juxta áream Vindiciáni, sepúltum est; sed memória ipsíus martýrii tértio Nonas Septémbris celébrior habétur, quo die ambárum sarcóphagum ibi compósitum et ornátum fuit, et locus oratiónis condígne dicátus.

Gangris, in Paphlagónia, sancti Calliníci Mártyris, qui, virgis férreis verberátus aliísque supplíciis afflíctus, tandem, in fornácem injéctus, spíritum Deo réddidit.

In Norvégia sancti Olávi, Regis et Mártyris.

Trecis, in Gállia, sancti Lupi, Epíscopi et Confessóris; qui, cum beáto Germáno, ad expugnándam Pelagianórum hǽresim, in Británniam perréxit, urbémque Trecas a furóre Attilæ, Gálliam omnem devastántis, assídua oratióne deféndit; demum, quinquagínta duóbus annis sacerdótio venerabíliter functus, in pace quiévit.

Cultum autem, ab immemorábili témpore eídem exhíbitum, Leo Décimus tértius, Póntifex Máximus, ratum hábuit et confirmávit.

℣ Et álibi aliórum plurimórum sanctórum Mártyrum et Confessórum, atque sanctárum Vírginum.

℟ Deo grátias.

℣ Pretiósa in conspéctu Dómini.

At Tarascon, in Narbonese Gaul, Saint Martha, Virgin, hostess of our Savior and sister of blessed Mary Magdalene and Lazarus.

At Rome, on the Portian Way, the holy Martyrs Felix, Simplicius, Faustinus, and Beatrice, in the time of the Emperor Diocletian. Of these, the first two, after many and diverse punishments, were ordered to undergo capital sentence; but Beatrice, their sister, was strangled in prison for her confession of Christ.

At Rome furthermore, the holy Martyrs Lucilla and Flora, Virgins, Eugenius, Antoninus, Theodore, and eighteen companions; who suffered martyrdom under the Emperor Gallienus.

Likewise at Rome, Saint Serapia, Virgin; who, under the Emperor Hadrian, when she had been handed over to two lascivious young men and could not at all be violated, nor afterwards be set ablaze with burning torches, was beaten with clubs by order of the judge Derillus and then beheaded with the sword. Her body was buried by blessed Sabina in her own tomb, near the precinct of Vindicianus; but the memory of her martyrdom is more solemnly observed on September 3, on which day the sarcophagus of both was placed and adorned there, and a place of prayer was duly dedicated.

At Gangra, in Paphlagonia, Saint Callinicus, Martyr, who, beaten with iron rods and afflicted with other punishments, at last cast into a furnace, yielded his spirit to God.

In Norway, Saint Olaf, King and Martyr.

At Troyes, in Gaul, Saint Lupus, Bishop and Confessor; who, together with blessed Germanus, journeyed to Britain to overcome the Pelagian heresy, and defended the city of Troyes from the fury of Attila, who was devastating all of Gaul, by his constant prayer; and at last, having venerably exercised the priesthood for fifty-two years, rested in peace.

In the city of Saint-Brieuc, in Gaul, Saint William, Bishop and Confessor.

Likewise the burial of blessed Prosper, Bishop of Orléans.

At Todi, in Umbria, Saint Faustinus, Confessor.

In the city of Mamia, Saint Seraphina.

At Rome, blessed Pope Urban II, who, following in the footsteps of Saint Gregory VII, excelled in zeal for doctrine and religion, and roused the faithful marked with the Cross to recover the holy places of Palestine from the dominion of the infidels. The cult rendered to him from time immemorial was ratified and confirmed by Pope Leo XIII, Supreme Pontiff.

℣ And elsewhere of many other holy Martyrs and Confessors, and holy Virgins.

℟ Thanks be to God.

℣ Precious in the sight of the Lord.
