Quicumque Christum quæ- All ye who seek, in hope and love,

Hic ille Rex est Gentium
Populique Rex judaici,
Promissus Abrahæ patri
Ejusque in ævum semini.

Hunc et prophetis testibus,
lisdemque signatoribus,
Testator et pater jubet
Audire nos, et credere.

Jesu, tibi sit gloria,
Qui te revelas parvulis,
Cum Patre, et almo Spiritu,
In sempiterna sæcula.

Amen.

Hail, Thou, the Gentiles' mighty
Lord!

All hail, O Israel's King ador'd!
To Abraham sworn in ages past,
And to his seed while earth shall
last.

To Thee the prophets witness
bear;

Of Thee the Father doth declare,
That all who would his glory see,
Must hear and must believe in
Thee.

To Jesus, from the proud con-
ceal'd,

All glory with the Father be,
But evermore to babes reveal'd,
And Holy Ghost, eternally.

FIRST AND SECOND VESPERS.

Seben Bolours. THIRD SUNDAY IN SEPT.

O quot undis lacrymarum,
Quo dolore volvitur,
Luctuosa de cruento
Dum refulsum stipite,
Cernit ulnis incubantem
Vi. go mater filium.

Os suave, mite pectus,
Et latus dulcissimum,
Dexteramque vulneratam,
Et sinistram sauciam,
Et rubras cruore plantas
Egra tingit lacrymis.

What a sea of tears and sorrows

Did the soul of Mary toss
To and fro upon its billows,

While she wept her bitter loss:
In her arms her Jesus holding,

Torn but newly from the Cross!

O that mournful Virgin Mother!
See her tears how fast they flow
Down upon his mangled body,

Wounded side, and thorny brow: While his hands and feet she kisses,

Picture of immortal woe!

FIRST AND SECOND VESPERS.

y. Regina martyrum,

ora pl. 1obis.

R. Quæ juxta crucem Jesu constitisti.
