Hail, holy queen, mother of mercy. Hail, our life, our sweetness,­ and our hope. To you do we cry, poor banished chil­dren of Eve. To you we send our sighs as, mourn­ing and weep­ing, we pass through this vale of tears. Hasten, then, we pray, O our advo­ ­cate. Look with pity with eyes of love com­pas­sion­ate upon us sinners. And after this earthly exile­ has ended,­ show us Jesus, the sacred fruit of your womb, O loving, O holy, O sweet virgin Mary.

Psalm 19A (18) God’s Revelation in Creation and in Torah The God who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” has shone in our hearts to bring to light the knowledge of the glory of God on the face of Jesus Christ. 1 Cor 4:6

Ant: After the sábbath, / as the fírst day of the wéek was dáwning, / Mary Mágdalene and the óther Mary cáme to see the tómb. 2 The héavens decláre the glóry of Gód, * and the fírmament procláims the wórk of his hánds. 3 Dáy unto dáy convéys the méssage, * and níght unto níght impárts the knówledge. 4 No spéech, no wórd, whose vóice goes unhéeded; + 5 their sóund goes fórth through áll the éarth, * their méssage to the útmost bóunds of the wórld. 6 Thére he has pláced a tént for the sún; + it comes fórth like a brídegroom cóming from his tént, * rejóices like a chámpion to rún his cóurse. 7 At one énd of the héavens is the rísing of the sún; + to its fúrthest énd it rúns its cóurse. * There is nóthing concéaled from its búrning héat.

Ant: After the sábbath, / as the fírst day of the wéek was dáwning, / Mary Mágdalene and the óther Mary cáme to see the tómb.

Psalm 33 (32) The Plans of God’s Heart Through the Word all things were made. Jn 1:3

Ant: The ángel sáid to the wómen, “Dó not be afráid / I knów that you are séeking Jésus the crúcified. / Hé is not hére for hé has been ráised, / júst as he sáid.

I

1 Ring out your jóy to the Lórd, O you júst; * for práise is fítting for the úpright. 2 Give thánks to the Lórd upon the hárp; * with a tén-stringed lúte sing him sóngs. 3 O síng him a sóng that is néw; * play skíllfully, with shóuts of jóy.

4 For the wórd of the Lórd is fáithful, * and áll his wórks to be trústed. 5 The Lórd loves jústice and ríght, * and his mérciful lóve fills the éarth. 6 By the wórd of the Lórd the héavens were máde, * by the bréath of his móuth all their hóst. 7 As in a flásk, he collécts the wáves of the ócean; * he stóres up the dépths of the séa.

8 Let áll the earth féar the Lórd, * all who líve in the wórld revére him. 9 He spóke, and it cáme to bé. * He commánded; it stóod in pláce. 10 The Lord frústrates the desígns of the nátions; * he deféats the pláns of the péoples. 11 The desígns of the Lórd stand foréver, * the pláns of his héart from age to áge.

II

12 Blessèd the nátion whose Gód is the Lórd, * the péople he has chósen as his héritage. 13 From the héavens the Lórd looks fórth; * he sées all the chíldren of mén.

C-167 Appendix - Feast of St. Mary Magdalene

14 From the pláce where he dwélls he gázes * on áll the dwéllers on the éarth, 15 He who shápes the héarts of them áll, * and consíders áll their déeds.

16 A kíng is not sáved by his great ármy, * nor a wárrior presérved by his great stréngth. 17 A vain hópe for sáfety is the hórse; * despite its pówer it cánnot sáve. 18 Yes, the éyes of the Lórd are on thóse who féar him, * who hópe in his mérciful lóve, 19 To réscue their sóuls from déath, * to kéep them alíve in fámine.

20 Our sóul is wáiting for the Lórd. * Hé is our hélp and our shíeld. 21 In hím do our héarts find jóy. * We trúst in his hóly náme. 22 May your mérciful lóve be upón us, * as we hópe in yóu, O Lórd.

V. Who is thís that comes fórth like the dáwn? R. Hé is as púre as the blázing sún.

4 My soul procláims the gréatness of the Lórd, and my spírit exúlts in God my Sávior, For he has lóoked upon his hándmaid in her lówliness; henceforth all áges will cáll me bléssed.

4 For the Almíghty has done gréat things for mé. And hóly ís his náme. His loving mércy is from áge to áge for thóse who féar him.

6 He has made knówn the stréngth of his árm, and has scáttered the próud of héart. He has put dówn the míghty from their thrónes and has exálted thóse who are lówly. He has fílled the húngry with góod things, and has sént the rích away émpty.

Intercessions

With tears of compunction we call upon our Savior. Purify our hearts by the grace of your passion: Lord, have mercy. Let all who are burdened hold fast to your cross: Christ, have mercy. Bring to the vision of glory all who have died: Lord, have mercy. May the divine assistance remain always with us: And with our absent brethren.

Our Father

Oration

Let us bless the Lord. Thanks be to God.
