[Psalm 127:4] Sicut sagittae in manu potentis: ita filii excussorum. [Psalm 127:5] Beatus vir qui implevit desiderium suum ex ipsis: non confundetur cum loquetur inimicis suis in porta.

[Psalm 127:3] Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord; a reward, the fruit of the womb. [Psalm 127:4] As arrows in the hands of the mighty, thus are the children of outcasts. [Psalm 127:5] Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them: they shall not be ashamed when they confront their enemies in the way. Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end.

Dic nam ista pulchra ut luna, electa ut sol, replet laetitia terras, coelos, maria. Maria virgo illa dulcis praedicta de propheta Ezekiel, porta orientalis? Illa sacra et felix porta per quam mors fuit expulsa introduxit autem vita? Quae semper tutum est medium inter homines et Deum pro culpis remedium? Omnes hanc ergo sequamur qua cum gratia mereamur vitam aeternam. Consequamur. Praestet nobis Deus, Pater hoc et Filius et Mater cujus nomen invocamus dulce miseris solamen. Benedicta es, virgo Maria, in saeculorum saecula. | Hear, O heaven, hear my words full of longing and pervaded by joy. Tell me, I pray, who is she that shines like the dawn in her rising, that I might bless her? Tell me, for she, beauteous as the moon, radiant as the sun, fills with joy the earth, heavens and seas. Mary, that sweet virgin foretold by the prophet Ezekiel, the portal of the East? That sacred and happy portal through which death was driven out and life brought in? She who is always a sure intermediary between men and God, the cure for our sins? Let us all therefore follow her through whose grace we may be granted eternal life. Let us go with her. May God help us, God the Father, and the Son, and the Mother on whose sweet name we call as a comfort to the wretched. Thou art blessed, virgin Mary, for ever and ever. | Harnoncourt/9 | Gardiner-1989/9 | Gardiner-2010/9 Gardiner-2010/9Omnes | Tubéry/9 Tubéry/9Omnes | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

[Psalm 147:16] He giveth snow like wool; he scattereth hoar frost like ashes. [Psalm 147:17] He casteth forth his ice like morsels; before his cold who can stand? [Psalm 147:18] He sendeth out his word, and melteth them; his spirit blows, and the waters flow. [Psalm 147:19] He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and judgements to Israel. [Psalm 147:20] He hath not dealt so with any nation; and his judgments he hath not made manifest. Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit.
