MORNING HYMN. (See p. 37.)

2.

THE THIRD HOUR. TIERCE.

NUNC, Sancte nobis Spiritus,
Unum Patri cum Filio,
Dignare promptus ingeri
Nostro refusus pectori.

COME, Holy Ghost, with God the Son,
And God the Father, ever One;
Shed forth Thy grace within our breast,
And dwell with us, a ready guest.

Os, lingua, mens, sensus, vigor
Confessionem personent;
Flammescat igne caritas,
Accendat ardor proximos.

By every power, by heart and tongue,
By act and deed, Thy praise be sung;
Inflame with perfect love each sense,
That others' souls may kindle thence.

Præsta, Pater piissime,
Patrique compar Unice,
Cum Spiritu Paraclito
Regnans per omne sæculum.

Amen.

O Father, that we ask be done,
Through Jesus Christ, Thine only Son,
Who, with the Holy Ghost and Thee,
Shall live and reign eternally.

Amen.

3.

THE SIXTH HOUR. SEXT.

RECTOR potens, verax Deus,
Qui temperas rerum vices,

O GOD of truth, O Lord of might,
Who orderest time and change aright,
