INTROIT Ps. 36.39.

May the glorious martyrdom of Protus and Hyacinth, thy blessed Martyrs, strengthen us, O Lord: and let their loving intercession continually shield us. Through.
EPISTLE Heb. 10.32-38.
Brethren: Call to mind the former days, wherein, being illuminated, you endured a great fight of afflictions. And on the one hand indeed, by re-proaches and tribulations, were made a gazingstock; and on the other, became companions of them that were used in such sort. For you both had compassion on them that were in bands and took with joy the being stripped of your own goods, knowing that you have a better and a lasting substance. Do not therefore lose your confidence which hath a great reward. For patience is necessary for you: that, doing the will of God, you may receive the promise. For yet a little and a very little while, and he that is to come will come and will not delay. But my just man liveth by faith: but if he withdraw himself, he shall not please my soul.
GRADUAL Ps. 33.18-19.
The just cried, and the Lord heard them: and delivered them out of all their troubles. V. The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a contrite heart: and he shall save the humble of spirit.
Alleluia, alleluia. V. The white-robed army of martyrs praiseth thee, O Lord. Alleluia.
+ The Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to Luke (12.1-8)
At that time: Jesus said unto his disciples: Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy. For there is nothing covered that shall not be revealed: nor hidden that shall not be known. For whatsoever things you have spoken in darkness shall be published in the light: and that which you have spoken in the ear in the chambers shall be preached on the housetops. And I say to you, my friends: Be not afraid of them who kill the body and after that have no more that they can do. But I will shew you whom you shall fear: Fear ye him who, after he hath killed, hath power to cast into hell. Yea, I say to you: Fear him. Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God? Yea, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: you are of more value than many sparrows. And I say to you: Whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of God.
OFFERTORY Wis. 3.1-3.
The souls of the just are in the hand of God, and the torment of death shall not touch them: in the sight of the unwise they seemed to die, but they are in peace (P.T. Alleluia).
SECRET
