EPISTLE Ephes. 3. 8-12; 14-19.
Brethren: To me, the least of all the Saints, is given grace, to preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ: and to enlighten all men, that they may see what is the dispensation of the mystery which hath been hidden from eternity in God, who created all things: that the manifold wisdom of God may be made known to the principalities and powers in heavenly places through the Church, according to the eternal purpose which he made in Christ Jesus our Lord: in whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him. For this cause I bow my knees to the Father of Our Lord Jesus Christ, of whom all paternity in heaven and earth is named, that he would grant you according to the riches of his glory, to be strenghened by his Spirit with might unto the inward man, that Christ may dwell by faith in your hearts: that, being rooted and grounded in charity, you may be able to comprehend with all the Saints, what is the breadth and length, and height and depth: to know also the charity of Christ which surpasseth all knowledge, that you may be filled unto all the fullness of God.
GRADUAL Ps. 24. 8, 9
The Lord is sweet and righteous: therefore he will give a law to sinners in the way. V.: He will guide the mild in judgment: he will teach the meek his ways.
Alleluia, alleluia. V. Matt. 11.29. Take my yoke upon you and learn of me, because I am meek and humble of heart: and you shall find rest to your souls. Alleluia.
+ The Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to John (19. 31-37)
At that time: The Jews (because it was the Parasceve), that the bodies might not remain upon the cross on the Sabbath day (for that was a great Sabbath day) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away. The soldiers therefore came: and they broke the legs of the first, and of the other that were crucified with him. But after they were come to Jesus, when they saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. But one of the soldiers, with a spear opening his side, and immediately there came out blood and water. And he that saw it, hath given testimony: and his testimony is true. And he knoweth that he saith true, that you may believe. For these things were done that the Scripture might be fulfilled: You shall not break a bone of him. And again another Scripture saith: They shall look upon him whom they pierced.
The Creed is said.
OFFERTORY Ps. 68. 21
My Heart hath expected reproach and misery: and I looked for one that would grieve together with me, but there was none: and for one that would comfort me, and I found none.

Have regard, we beseech thee, O Lord, to the inexpressible love of the Heart of thy beloved Son: so that what we offer may be a gift acceptable to thee, and an expiation for our offenses. Through.
