Preparatory Prayers (i)Preparatory Prayers (i) In the Name of the Father, and of the Son,

and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.

I believe in one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, And of all things visible and invisible;

And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of his Father before all worlds, God of God, Light of Light, Very God of very God, Begotten, not made; Being of one substance with the Father; By whom all things were made; Who for us men and for our salvation came down from heaven, And was incarnate of the Holy Ghost and the Virgin Mary, And was made man; And was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate; He suffered and was buried; And the third day he rose again according to the Scriptures: And ascended into heaven, And sitteth on the right hand of the Father; And he shall come again, with glory, to judge both the quick and the dead; Whose kingdom shall have no end.

And I believe in the Holy Ghost, the Lord, and giver of Life, Who proceedeth from the Father [and the Son]; Who with the Father and the Son together is worshipped and glorified; Who spake by the prophets. And I believe one holy Catholic and Apostolic Church; I acknowledge one Baptism for the remission of sins; And I look for the Resurrection of the dead; And the Life of the world to come. Amen.

Preparatory Prayers (ii)Preparatory Prayers (ii)

Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, On earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, As we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.

The Concluding Devotions (i)The Concluding Devotions (i) (Antiphon.) We have an advocate with the Father, Jesus

Christ the righteous; * And he is the propitiation for our sins.

My soul doth magnify the Lord, * and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour;

For he hath regarded * the lowliness of his handmaiden.For behold, from henceforth * all generations shall call me

blessed.For he that is mighty hath magnified me, * and holy is his

name; And his mercy is on them that fear him * throughout all

generations.He hath showed strength with his arm, * he hath

scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts;He hath put down the mighty from their seats, * and hath

exalted the humble and meek.He hath filled the hungry with good things, * and the rich

he hath sent empty away.He remembering his mercy hath holpen his servant Israel, *

as he promised to our forefathers, Abraham and his seed for ever.

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

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

(Antiphon.) We have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous; * And he is the propitiation for our sins.

through this vale of sorrow.Turn thou therefore, O our intercessor, those thine eyes of pity

and loving-kindness upon us sinners,Hereafter, when our earthly exile shall be ended, show us

Jesus, the blessed fruit of thy womb, O gentle, O tender, O gracious Virgin Mary

Leader Pray for us, O holy Mother of God;People That we may be made worthy of the promises

of Christ.Let us pray. Almighty and everlasting God, who by the co-

operation of the Holy Ghost didst prepare the body and soul of the glorious Virgin Mother Mary to become a habitation meet for thy Son: Grant that as we rejoice in her commemoration, we may be delivered by her loving intercession from our present evils and from eternal death; through the same Christ our Lord.
