THE RITE OF

Gloria Patri, et Filio:* et Spiritui sancto.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost.

Sicut erat in principio, et nunc et semper,* et in sæcula sæculorum. Amen.

As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

THE ANTHEM IS REPEATED.

At the commencement of the Anthem, the Consecrating Bishop takes his seat, and mitre; the Elect kneeling before him. with joined hands, which the Consecrating Bishop anoints, first crossing them, in the form of a cross, and then anointing the entire palms, saying:

UNgantur manus istæ de oleo sanctificato et Chrismate sanctificationis, sicut unxit Samuel David Regem, et Prophetam, ita ungantur, et consecrentur.

BE these hands anointed with sacred oil, and the chrism of sanctification, as Samuel anointed David, to be King and Prophet, so be they anointed and consecrated.

In nomine Dei Pa✠tris, et Fi✠lii, et Spiritus ✠ sancti, facientes, imaginem sanctæ crucis Salvatoris nostri Jesu Christi, qui nos à morte redemit, et ad regna cœlorum perduxit. Exaudi nos pie Pater omnipotens, æterne Deus; et præsta, ut, quod te rogamus, exoremus. Per eumdem Christum Dominum nostrum. ℟. Amen.

In the name of God the Father✠, and of the Son ✠, and of the Holy Ghost, ✠, bearing on them the likeness of the holy Cross of our Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ, who redeemed us from death, and obtained for us the kingdom of Heaven. Hear us, O Pious Almighty Father, Eternal God, and grant that what we ask in prayer, we may obtain: Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.

Sitting, he continues,

DEus et Pater Domini nostri Jesu Christi

MAY God the Father of our Lord Jesus
