Lesson from the book of Ecclesiasticus
Eccli 24:5; 14:7; 14:9-11; 24:30-31
From the mouth of the Most High I came forth, the firstborn before all creatures. In the highest heavens did I dwell, my throne on a pillar cloud. Over all the land, over every people and nation I held sway, and by my power I have trodden under my feet the hearts of all the high and low. He who obeys me will not be put to shame, and they who work by me shall not sin. They who explain me shall have life everlasting.
Lectio libri Sapientiæ
Eccli 24:5, 7, 9-11, 30-31
Ego ex ore Altíssimi prodívi, primogénita ante omnem creatúram; ego in altíssimis habitávi, et thronus meus in colúmna nubis. In omni terra steti; et in omni pópulo, et in omni gente primátum hábui, et ómnium excelléntium et humílium corda virtúte calcávi. Qui audit me, non confundétur, et qui operántur in me, non peccábunt; qui elúcidant me, vitam ætérnam habébunt.
Alleluia, alleluia.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to Luke
Luke 1:26-33
At that time, the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a town of Galilee called Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man named Joseph, of the house of David, and the virgin’s name was Mary. And when the angel had come to her, he said, Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with you. Blessed are you among women. When she had heard him she was troubled at his word, and kept pondering what manner of greeting this might be. And the angel said to her, Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found grace with God. Behold, you shall conceive in your womb and shall bring forth a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus. He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Most High; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of David His father, and He shall be king over the house of Jacob forever; and of His kingdom there shall be no end.
Sequentia sancti Evangelii secundum Lucam.
Luc 1:26-33
In illo témpore: Missus est Angelus Gábriel a Deo in civitátem Galilǽæ, cui nomen Názareth, ad Vírginem desponsátam viro, cui nomen erat Ioseph, de domo David, et nomen Vírginis María. Et ingréssus Angelus ad eam, dixit: Ave, grátia plena: Dóminus tecum: benedícta tu in muliéribus. Quæ cum audísset, turbáta est in sermóne eius: et cogitábat, qualis esset ista salutátio. Et ait Angelus ei: Ne tímeas, María, invenísti enim grátiam apud Deum: ecce concípies in útero, et páries fílium, et vocábis nomen eius Iesum. Hic erit magnus, et Fílius Altíssimi vocábitur, et dabit illi Dóminus Deus sedem David patris eius: et regnábit in domo Iacob in ætérnum, et regni eius non erit finis.
Sprung from a royal line, all radiant is Mary, by whose prayers we most devoutly beg to be helped both in mind and in spirit. (Alleluia.)
Regáli ex progénie María exórta refúlget; cuius præscibus nos adiuvári, mente et spíritu devotíssime póscimus. (Allelúia.)
Accept, we beseech You, O Lord, the gifts of the rejoicing Church and grant by the pleading merits of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Queen, that they may be helpful for our salvation.
Through our Lord…
Accipe, quǽsumus, Dómine, múnera lætántis Ecclésiæ, et, beátæ Vírginis Maríæ Regínæ suffragántibus méritis, ad nostræ salútis auxílium proveníre concéde.

Ascension
It is truly meet and just, right and for our salvation, that we should at all times, and in all places, give thanks unto Thee, O holy Lord, Father almighty, everlasting God: through Christ our Lord. Who, after His Resurrection, appeared openly to all His disciples, and, while they looked on, was taken up into heaven, that He might grant unto us to be sharers in His own divinity. And therefore, with Angels and Archangels, with Thrones and Dominations, and with all the hosts of the heavenly army, we sing the hymn of Thy glory, evermore saying:
de Ascensione Domini
Vere dignum et justum est, æquum et salutáre, nos tibi semper et ubíque grátias ágere: Dómine sancte, Pater omnípotens, ætérne Deus: per Christum, Dóminum nostrum. Qui post resurrectiónem suam ómnibus discípulis suis maniféstus appáruit et, ipsis cernéntibus, est elevátus in cælum, ut nos divinitátis suæ tribúeret esse partícipes. Et ídeo cum Angelis et Archángelis, cum Thronis et Dominatiónibus cumque omni milítia cœléstis exércitus hymnum glóriæ tuæ cánimus, sine fine dicéntes:
Most worthy Queen of the world, Mary ever Virgin, who have borne Christ the Lord, the Saviour of all, intercede for our peace and salvation.
Regína mundi digníssima, María Virgo perpétua, intercéde pro nostra pace et salúte, quæ genuísti Christum Dóminum, Salvatórem ómnium.
We who have celebrated the sacred rites in honor of Holy Mary, our Queen, pray, O Lord, that through the intercession of her in whose honor they have been joyously performed, they may be helpful for our salvation.
Through our Lord…
Celebrátis solémniis, Dómine, quæ pro sanctæ Maríæ Regínæ nostræ festivitáte (memória) perégimus: eius, quǽsumus, nobis intercessióne fiant salutária; in cuius honóre sunt exsultánter impléta.
