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 that the sun has risen,
Let us humbly pray to God,
That in our daily actions
He may keep us from all harm.
May he hold back and bridle the tongue,
Lest the din of strife ring out:
May he guard the eyes with care,
Lest they drink in vanities.
Let the depths of the heart be pure,
And let folly be far away;
May sparing use of food and drink
Curb the pride of the flesh.
That when the day shall pass away
And fortune bring back the night,
Pure through abstinence,
We may ourselves sing his glory.
To God the Father be glory,
And to his only Son,
With the Spirit the Paraclete,
Now and through every age.
Amen.

Octávo Kaléndas Septémbris Luna duodécima. Anno Dómini 2026
Apud Cartháginem sancti Ludovíci Noni, Regis Francórum et Confessóris, vitæ sanctitáte ac miraculórum glória præclári, cujus ossa póstmodum Lutétiam Parisiórum sunt reláta.
Romæ natális sancti Joséphi Calasánctii, Presbýteri et Confessóris, vitæ innocéntia et miráculis illústris; qui, ad erudiéndam pietáte ac lítteris juventútem, Ordinem Clericórum Regulárium Páuperum Matris Dei Scholárum Piárum fundávit. Eum Pius Duodécimus, Póntifex Máximus, ómnium Scholárum populárium christianárum ubíque exsisténtium cæléstem apud Deum Patrónum constítuit. Ipsíus tamen festívitas sexto Kaléndas Septémbris recólitur.
Item Romæ sanctórum Mártyrum Eusébii, Pontiáni, Vincéntii et Peregríni; qui, sub Cómmodo Imperatóre, primum in equúleo leváti, nervis quoque disténti, ac deínde fústibus cæsi sunt, flammis circa eórum látera appósitis; et, cum in laude Christi fidelíssime permanérent, plumbátis usque ad emissiónem spíritus sunt mactáti.

Mox, Imperatóris jussu, fústibus crudelíssime cæsus, deínde suspénsus in equúleo, et ungulárum diutíssima laceratióne vexátus, lampádibus étiam adústus est; ac tandem, cum in fide Christi persísteret, dicens: « Non est Rex præter Christum, pro quo si míllies occídar, ipsum mihi de ore, ipsum mihi de corde auférre non potéritis », martýrii palmam obtruncatióne cápitis proméruit.
Areláte, in Gállia, beáti item Genésii, qui, cum ímpia edícta, quibus Christiáni puniri jubebántur, exceptóris offício fungens, nollet excípere, et, projéctis in públicum tábulis, se Christiánum esse testarétur, comprehénsus et decollátus est, atque ita martýrii glóriam, próprio cruóre baptizátus, accépit.

The Twenty-Fifth of August. The twelfth day of the moon. In the year of our Lord 2026.
At Carthage, Saint Louis IX, King of the Franks and Confessor, renowned for holiness of life and the glory of miracles, whose bones were afterwards translated to Paris.
At Rome, the heavenly birthday of Saint Joseph Calasanz, Priest and Confessor, distinguished for innocence of life and miracles; who, to educate youth in piety and learning, founded the Order of Poor Clerics Regular of the Mother of God of the Pious Schools. Pope Pius XII, Supreme Pontiff, appointed him heavenly Patron before God of all Christian schools for the common people everywhere. His feast, however, is kept on the Twenty-Seventh of August.
Likewise at Rome, the holy Martyrs Eusebius, Pontian, Vincent, and Peregrinus; who, under the Emperor Commodus, were first lifted on the rack and had their sinews stretched, then beaten with clubs, with flames applied to their sides; and, since they persevered most faithfully in praising Christ, were put to death with leaded whips until they gave up the spirit.
At Rome, furthermore, the heavenly birthday of the blessed Deacon Nemesius and of his daughter, the Virgin Lucilla; who, since they could in no way be turned away from the faith of Christ, were beheaded by command of the Emperor Valerian. Their bodies, buried by the blessed Pope Stephen, were afterwards more honorably entombed by the blessed Pope Sixtus II on the Appian Way, on the Thirty-First of October; Pope Gregory V transferred them to the diaconia of Santa Maria Nova, together with the holy Symphronius, Olympius the Tribune, his wife Exsuperia, and their son Theodulus; all of whom, converted through the work of Symphronius and baptized by that holy Pope Stephen, had been crowned with martyrdom. The bodies of these same Saints, having been found there under Pope Gregory XIII, Supreme Pontiff, were placed more honorably beneath the altar of the same church on the Eighth of December.
Likewise at Rome, Saint Genesius, Martyr, who was first a mime under paganism and, while mocking the Christian Mysteries in the theatre before the Emperor Diocletian, was suddenly inspired by God, converted to the faith, and baptized. Immediately, by the Emperor's command, he was most cruelly beaten with clubs, then hung on the rack, tormented with the prolonged laceration of iron claws, and also burned with torches; and at last, when he persisted in the faith of Christ, saying: "There is no King but Christ, for whom, though I be slain a thousand times, you will not be able to take him from my lips, nor from my heart" — he merited the palm of martyrdom by the cutting off of his head.
At Arles, in Gaul, the blessed Genesius likewise, who, while serving as a notary and refusing to transcribe the impious edicts by which Christians were ordered to be punished, cast the tablets into the public street and testified that he was a Christian; he was seized and beheaded, and thus received the glory of martyrdom, baptized in his own blood.
In Syria, Saint Julian, Martyr.
At Tarragona, in Spain, Saint Maginus, Martyr.
At Italica, in Spain, Saint Gerontius, Bishop, who, in the time of the Apostles, preached the Gospel in that province, and, after many labors, fell asleep in prison.
At Constantinople, Saint Mennas, Bishop.
At Utrecht, Saint Gregory, Bishop.
Near Mons Faliscus, in Etruria, Saint Thomas, Confessor, who was Bishop of the Church of Hereford in England.
At Naples, in Campania, Saint Patricia, Virgin.
℣ And elsewhere of many other holy Martyrs and Confessors, and holy Virgins.
℟ Thanks be to God.
℣ Precious in the sight of the Lord.
℟ The death of his Saints.
May holy Mary and all the Saints intercede for us to the Lord, that we may merit to be helped and saved by him, who lives and reigns for ever and ever.
℟ Amen.
