EPISTLE Cant. 2.8-14
BEHOLD he cometh, leaping over the hills. My beloved is like a roe or a young hart. Be-hold he standeth behind our wall; looking through the windows, looking through the lattices. Be-hold my beloved speaketh to me, Arise, make haste, my love, my dove, my beautiful one; and come. For winter is now past, the rain is over and gone. The flow-ers have appeared in our land, the time of pruning is come, the voice of the turtle is heard in our land; the fig tree hath put forth her green figs, the vines in flower yield their sweet smell. Arise, my love, my beautiful one, and come, my dove in the clefts of the rock, in the hollow places of the wall, show me thy face, let thy voice sound in my ear; for thy voice is sweet, and thy face comely.
GRADUAL
Blessed and venerable art thou, O Virgin Mary: who without blem-ish to thy maidenhood, wast made the Mother of the Savior. O Virgin, Mother of God, he whom the whole world cannot contain, enclosed himself in thy womb, be-ing made man.
Alleluia, alleluia. V. Happy art thou, O holy Virgin Mary, and of all high praise most worthy: for out of thee hath risen the sun of justice, Christ our God. Alleluia.
+ The Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to Luke (1.37-47)
AT that time Mary rising up went into the hill country with haste into a city of Juda: and she entered into the house of Zach-ary, and saluted Elizabeth. And it came to pass, that when Elizabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the infant leaped in her womb: and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost: and she cried out with a loud voice, and said: Blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb. And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? For behold as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in my ears, the infant in my womb leaped for joy. And blessed art thou that hast be-lieved, because those things shall be accomplished that were spoken to thee by the Lord. And Mary saith: My soul doth magnify the Lord: and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Savior.
The Creed is said.
