*Hymnus* {ex Psalterio secundum temporum} Nox atra rerum contegit Terrae colores omnium: Nos confitentes poscimus Te, iuste iudex cordium: Ut auferas piacula, Sordesque mentis abluas: Donesque, Christe, gratiam, Ut arceantur crimina. Mens ecce torpet impia, Quam culpa mordet noxia; Obscura gestit tollere, Et te, Redemptor, quaerere. Repelle tu caliginem Intrinsecus quam maxime: Ut in beato gaudeat Se collocari lumine. Praesta, Pater piissime, Patrique compar Unice, Cum Spiritu Paraclito, Regnans per omne saeculum. Amen.	*Hymn* {from the Psalter for the season of the Church year} The dusky veil of night hath laid The varied hues of earth in shade; Before Thee, righteous Judge of all, We contrite in confession fall. Take far away our load of sin, Our soiled minds make clean within: Thy sov’reign grace, 0 Christ, impart, From all offence to guard our heart. For lo! our mind is dull and cold, Envenomed by sin’s baneful hold: Fain would it now the darkness flee, And seek, Redeemer, unto Thee. Far from it drive the shades of night, Its inmost darkness put to flight; Till in the daylight of the blest It joys to find itself at rest. Almighty Father, hear our cry, Through Jesus Christ, our Lord most High, Who, with the Holy Ghost and Thee, Doth live and reign eternally. Amen.

Adepto enim imperio, religioni amplificandae studiose incumbens, ecclesias ab infidelibus destructas, magnificentius reparavit, plurimisque largitionibus et praediis locupletavit Monasteria aliaque loca pia vel ipse aedificavit, vel assignatis reditibus auxit. Episcopatum Bambergensem haerediteriis opibus fundatum, beato Petro, Romanoque Pontifici vectigalem fecit.

May God the Father Omnipotent, be to us merciful and clement. Amen. *Reading 4* Henry II., surnamed the Pious, became successively Duke of Bavaria, (in the year 995,) King of Germany, in 1002,] and the Emperor of the Romans, [in 1014. His hope soared beyond the short enjoyment of a fleeting kingdom, and he aimed at the possession of an unfading crown by living as the loyal servant of the Eternal King. After he became Emperor, he earnestly set himself to the furtherance of the cause of godliness. He restored with new splendour the Churches which had been ruined by the unbelievers, and enriched them with many offerings and possessions. Monasteries and other godly places he either built himself, or endowed them with allowances. He founded out of his own family inheritance the Bishopric of Bamberg, and made it tributary to Blessed Peter and to the Bishop of Rome. When Benedict VIII., who had set on his head the Imperial crown, was an exile, he hospitably received him, and afterwards restored him to his See. V. And thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us R. Thanks be to God. R. The Lord made him honourable, and defended him from his enemies, and kept him safe from those that lay in wait for him * And gave him perpetual glory. V. He went down with him into the pit, and left him not in bonds. R. And gave him perpetual glory.

Romanam Ecclesiam amplissimo diplomate muneratus eidem tuendae bellum adversus Graecos suscepit, et Apuliam, diu ab illis possessam, recuperavit. Nihil sine precibus aggredi solitus, Angelum Domini, sanctosque martyres tutelares pro se pugnantes ante aciem interdum vidit Divina autem protectus ope, barbaras nationes precibus magis quam armis expugnavit. Pannoniam adhuc infidelem, tradita Stephiano regi sorore sua in uxorem, eoque baptizato, ad Christi fidem perduxit. Virginitatem raro exemplo matrimonio junxit, sanctamque Cunegundam, conjugem suam, propinquis ejus, morti proximus, illibatam restituit. V. Tu autem Domine miserere nobis. R. Deo gratias R. Amavit eum Dominus, et ornavit eum: stolam gloriae induit eum, * Et ad portas paradisi coronavit eum. V. Induit eum Dominus loricam fidei, et ornavit eum. R. Et ad portas paradisi coronavit eum.	V. Grant, Lord, a blessing. Benediction . May Christ to all His people give, for ever in His sight to live. Amen. *Reading 5* Then he was struck down with a grievous sickness in the Monastery of Monte Cassino, he was healed by an evident miracle through the intercession of St Benedict. He was a princely benefactor to the Church of Rome, for the defence of which he entered into a war against the Greeks, and took again from them the province of Apulia, which they had long possessed. He never undertook anything until he had made it a subject of prayer. And in battle he once saw the Angel of the Lord and the Holy Martyrs (Laurence, George, and Adrian) his patrons under whose protection he had placed his army, fighting for him in front of his line. With the help of God, he prevailed against the tribes of savages more by prayer than by arms. He gave his sister in marriage to King Stephen of Hungary, whom he induced to be baptized, and so brought all that country to believe in Christ. His marriage with the holy maiden Cunegunda is one of the rare instances of the union of two virgins. When he drew near to death, he gave her back inviolate to her kinsfolk. V. And thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us R. Thanks be to God. R. The Lord loved him and beautified him He clothed him with a robe of glory * And crowned him at the gates of Paradise. V. The Lord hath put on him the breast-plate of faith, and hath adorned him. R. And crowned him at the gates of Paradise.

Quia te vidi justum coram me ex omnibus gentibus.	V. Grant, Lord, a blessing. Benediction . May the Spirit's fire Divine in our hearts enkindled shine. Amen. *Reading 6* He managed with great wisdom whatever could tend to the honour and usefulness of the Empire. He left in France? Italy, and Germany, splendid monuments of his godly munificence. The perfume of his saintly life spread its sweetness far and wide, and the glory of his holiness outshone the splendour of his crown. When the work of his life was done, he was called by the Lord to the possession of an eternal kingdom (on the 14th day of July,) in the year of salvation 1024. His body was buried in the Church of the Blessed Apostles Peter and Paul at Bamberg, and God glorified him by the miracles which began forthwith to take place at his grave. The same being duly proved, Eugenius III. numbered him among the Saints. V. And thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us R. Thanks be to God. R. This is he which did according unto all that God commanded him; and God said unto him Enter thou into My rest * For thee have I seen righteous before Me among all people. V. This is he which loved not his life in this world, and is come unto an everlasting kingdom. R. For thee have I seen righteous before Me among all people. V. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost. R. For thee have I seen righteous before Me among all people.

Dearly beloved brethren, the words of the Holy Gospel, which have just been read, lie open before you, and, lest their very plainness should make them seem to some to be hard, we will go through them with such shortness as that neither may they which understand not remain unenlightened, nor they which understand be wearied. The Lord saith Let your loins be girded about. Now, we gird our loins about, when by continency we master the lustful inclination of the flesh. But, forasmuch as it sufficeth not for a man to abstain from evil deeds, if he strive not to join thereto the earnest doing of good works, it is immediately added And your lights burning. Our lights burn when, by good works, we give bright example to our neighbour; concerning which works the Lord saith Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father Which is in heaven. Matth. v. 16. V. And thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us R. Thanks be to God. R. This is he which wrought great wonders before God, and praised the Lord with all his heart. * May he pray for all people, that their sins may be forgiven unto them V. Behold a man without blame, a worshipper of God in truth, keeping himself clean from every evil work, and abiding still in his innocency. R. May he pray for all people, that their sins may be forgiven unto them
V. Jube domne benedicere. Benedictio. Cujus festum colimus, ipse intercedat pro nobis ad Dominum. Amen. *Lectio 8* Duo autem sunt, quae jubentur, et lumbos restringere, et lucernas tenere: ut et munditia sit castitatis in corpore, et lumen veritatis in operatione. Redemptori etenim nostro unum sine altero placere nequaquam potest: si aut is qui bona agit, adhuc luxuriae inquinamenta non deserit: aut is qui castitate praeeminet, necdum se per bona opera exercet. Nec castitas ergo magna est sine bono opere, nec opus bonum est aliquod sine castitate. Sed et si utrumque agitur, restat, ut quisquis ille est, spe ad supernam patriam tendat, et nequaquam se a vitiis pro mundi hujus honestate contineat. V. Tu autem Domine miserere nobis. R. Deo gratias R. Sint lumbi vestri praecincti, et lucernae ardentes in manibus vestris * Et vos similes hominibus exspectantibus dominum suum, quando revertatur a nuptiis. V. Vigilate ergo, quia nescitis qua hora Dominus vester venturus sit. R. Et vos similes hominibus exspectantibus dominum suum, quando revertatur a nuptiis. V. Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto. R. Et vos similes hominibus exspectantibus dominum suum, quando revertatur a nuptiis.	V. Grant, Lord, a blessing. Benediction . He whose feast-day we are keeping, be our Advocate with God. Amen. *Reading 8* Here, then, are two commandments, to gird our loins about, and to keep our lights burning the cleanness of purity in our body, and the light of the truth in our works. Whoso hath the one and not the other, pleaseth not thereby our Redeemer; that is, he pleaseth Him not which doth good works, but bridleth not himself from the pollutions of lust, neither he which is eminent in chastity, but exerciseth not himself in good works. Neither is chastity a great thing without good works, nor good works anything without chastity. And if any man do both, it remaineth that he must look by hope toward our Fatherland above, and not have for his reason wherethrough he turneth himself away from vice, the love of honour in this present world. V. And thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us R. Thanks be to God. R. Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burning, * And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding. V. Watch, therefore, for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. R. And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding. V. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost. R. And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding.
V. Jube domne benedicere. Benedictio. Ad societatem civium supernorum perducat nos Rex Angelorum. Amen. *Lectio 9* Et vos similes hominibus exspectantibus dominum suum, quando revertatur a nuptiis: ut cum venerit et pulsaverit, confestim aperiant ei. Venit quippe Dominus, cum ad judicium properat: pulsat vero, cum jam per aegritudinis molestias esse mortem vicinam designat. Cui confestim aperimus, si hunc cum amore suscipimus. Aperire enim judici pulsanti non vult, qui exire de corpore trepidat: et videre eum, quem contempsisse se meminit, judicem formidat. Qui autem de sua spe et operatione securus est, pulsanti confestim aperit, quia laetus judicem sustinet. Et cum tempus propinquae mortis advenerit, de gloria retributionis hilarescit. V. Tu autem Domine miserere nobis. R. Deo gratias Te Deum Te Deum laudamus: te Dominum confitemur. Te aeternum Patrem, omnis terra veneratur. Tibi omnes angeli, tibi coeli et universae potestates: Tibi cherubim et seraphim incessabili voce proclamant: Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus, Dominus Deus Sabaoth. Pleni sunt coeli et terra majestatis gloriae tuae. Te gloriosus apostolorum chorus, Te prophetarum laudabilis numerus, Te martyrum candidatus laudat exercitus. Te per orbem terrarum sancta confitetur Ecclesia, Patrem immensae majestatis; Venerandum tuum verum et unicum Filium; Sanctum quoque Paraclitum Spiritum. Tu rex gloriae, Christe. Tu Patris sempiternus es Filius. Tu, ad liberandum suscepturus hominem, non horruisti Virginis uterum. Tu, devicto mortis aculeo, aperuisti credentibus regna coelorum. Tu ad dexteram Dei sedes, in gloria Patris. Judex crederis esse venturus. Sequens versus dicitur flexis genibus Te ergo quaesumus, tuis famulis subveni, quos pretioso sanguine redemisti. Aeterna fac cum sanctis tuis in gloria numerari. Salvum fac populum tuum, Domine, et benedic hereditati tuae. Et rege eos, et extolle illos usque in aeternum. Per singulos dies benedicimus te; et laudamus nomen tuum in saeculum, et in saeculum saeculi. Dignare, Domine, die isto sine peccato nos custodire. Miserere nostri, Domine, miserere nostri. Fiat misericordia tua, Domine, super nos,quemadmodum speravimus in te. In te, Domine, speravi: non confundar in aeternum.	V. Grant, Lord, a blessing. Benediction . May He that is the Angels' King to that high realm His people bring. Amen. *Reading 9* And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding that, when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately. The Lord cometh at the hour of judgment He knocketh when, by the pains of sickness, He biddeth us know that death is nigh. To Him open we immediately, if we receive Him in love. Whoso feareth to leave this body, will not open to the Judge when He knocketh, for he dreadeth to see that Judge, Whom he knoweth that he hath despised. But whosoever knoweth that his hope and works are built upon a good foundation, when he heareth the Judge knock, openeth to Him immediately, for to such an one that coming is blessed, yea, when the hour of death is at hand, such an one haileth with gladness a glorious reward. V. And thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us R. Thanks be to God. Te Deum We praise thee, O God we acknowledge thee to be the Lord. All the earth doth worship thee the Father everlasting. To thee all Angels cry aloud the Heavens, and all the Powers therein. To thee Cherubim and Seraphim continually do cry, Holy, Holy, Holy Lord God of Sabaoth; Heaven and earth are full of the Majesty of thy glory. The glorious company of the Apostles praise thee. The goodly fellowship of the Prophets praise thee. The noble army of Martyrs praise thee. The holy Church throughout all the world doth acknowledge thee; The Father of an infinite Majesty; Thine honourable, true and only Son; Also the Holy Ghost the Comforter. Thou art the King of Glory O Christ. Thou art the everlasting Son of the Father. When thou tookest upon thee to deliver man thou didst not abhor the Virgin's womb. When thou hadst overcome the sharpness of death thou didst open the Kingdom of Heaven to all believers. Thou sittest at the right hand of God in the glory of the Father. We believe that thou shalt come to be our Judge. Kneel for the following verse We therefore pray thee, help thy servants whom thou hast redeemed with thy precious blood. Make them to be numbered with thy Saints in glory everlasting. O Lord, save thy people and bless thine heritage. Govern them and lift them up for ever. Day by day we magnify thee; And we worship thy Name ever world without end. Vouchsafe, O Lord to keep us this day without sin. O Lord, have mercy upon us have mercy upon us. O Lord, let thy mercy lighten upon us as our trust is in thee. O Lord, in thee have I trusted let me never be confounded.

*Oratio* {ex Proprio Sanctorum} V. Domine exaudi orationem meam R. Et clamor meus ad te veniat Oremus Deus, qui hodierna die beatum Henricum Confessorem tuum e terreni culmine imperii ad regnum aeternum transtulisti: te supplices exoramus; ut sicut illum, gratiae tuae libertate praeventum illecebras saeculi superare fecisti, ita nos facias, ejus imitatione, mundi hujus blandimenta vitare, et ad te puris mentibus pervenire.

And let my cry come unto thee Let us pray O God, Who on this day didst take thy blessed Confessor Henry from the highest peak of earthly power, and make him to inherit an eternal kingdom O God, Who didst so prevent him with the blessings of thy sweetness that the snares of the world could not in any wise entangle him hear us, we humbly beseech thee, and make us after his ensample to turn away from the enticements of this life, and with all our heart to seek earnestly after thee. Through Jesus Christ, thy Son our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, ever one God, world without end. R. Amen.
*Conclusio* V. Benedicamus Domino R. Deo gratias V. Fidelium animae per misericordiam Dei requiescant in pace. R. Amen. Pater noster, qui es in caelis, Sanctificetur nomen tuum. Adveniat regnum tuum.
