Gaude Maria Virgo, cuncta haereses sola interemisti, in universo mundo, Alleluia. This is the day which the Lord has made let us rejoice and be glad therein. Haec dies quam fecit Dominus exultemus et laetemur in eia. Woe is me, for I have sinned.īut thou, O Lord, who dost not forsake those whose hope is in thee, comfort and help me, for thy holy name’s sake, and have mercy on me. My heart is made sorrowful in mourning, my eyes are become dim. Sadness and anxiety have overtaken my inmost being. Sed tu, domine, qui non derelinques sperantes in te, consolare et adjuva me propter nomen sanctum tuum, et miserere mei. Moestum factum est cor meum in dolore, et contenebrati sunt oculi mei.

Let the priests weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say: spare Thy people. With fasting and weeping let the priests pray, saying: spare, O Lord, spare Thy people, and give not Thine heritage to destruction.

How shall we sing the Lord’s song in a strange land? If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning.
Memor esto, Domine, filiorum Edom, in die Jerusalem. Si non proposuero Jerusalem in principio laetitiae meae. Adhaerat lingua mea faucibus meis, si non meminero tui. Quomodo cantabimus canticum Domini in terra aliena? Si oblitus fuero tui, Jerusalem, oblivioni detur dextera mea. How shall we sing the Lord’s song in a strange land?
