Double Feast of Saint Jerome Emilliani, Confessor

WHITE Vestments

Missa "Effúsum est"

       In the Sixteenth Century God raised up a number of saints who by prayer, teaching and good works combated the influence of the pagan Renaissance. Among these was St. Jerome Emiliani, who spent himself in the care of orphans and the poor. He instituted homes for orphan children, and founded the Congregation whose object was to educate orphans. They are called the Somaschl, from Somascha, the little Italian town in which they were first established. He died on February 8, 1531, from the plague which he contracted while burying the dead. It was related that St. Charles Borromeo when going several years afterwards to make a pastoral visit at Somascha, became aware of the presence of the relics of a saint through the sweet perfume which emanated from his tomb. Asking for a thurible, St. Charles offered incense on the sepulchre, being thus the first to render public veneration to the saint.

       There is a commemoration today of the holy virgin martyr St. Margaret, who was called by the Greeks, Marina. She was martyred at Antioch in Pisidia under Emperor Diocletian at the end of the Third Century. Devotion to her became very popular in Rome during the Middle Ages, and many chapels and churches were dedicated to her. She is invoked, especially, by those who are about to become mothers

EPISTLE:   Isaiah 58: 7-11


Léctio Isaíæ Prophétæ. Hæc dicit Dóminus: Frange esuriénti panem tuum, et egénos, vagósque induc in domum tuam: eum víderis nudum, óperi eum, et carnem tuam ne despéxeris Tunc erúmpet quasi mane lumen tuum, et sánitas tua cítius oriétur, et anteíbit fáciem tuam justítia tua, et giória Dómini cólliget te. Tunc invocábis, et Dóminus exáudiet: clamábis, et dicet: Ecce adsum; si abstúleris de médio tui caténam, et desieris extendere dígitum, et logui quod non prodest. Cum effúderis esuriénti ánimam tuam, et ánimam afflíctam repléveris, oriétur in ténebris lux tua, et ténebræ tuæ erunt sicut merídies. Et réquiem tibi dabit Dóminus semper, et implébit splendóribus ánimam tuam, et ossa tua liberábit, et eris quasi hortus irríguus, et sicut fons aquárum, cujus non defíciens aquæ.
Deo Gratias.

Lesson from Isaias the Prophet.Thus said the Lord: Deal thy bread to the hungry, and bring the needy and the harborless into thy house: when thou shalt see one naked, cover him, and despise not thy own flesh. Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thy health shall speedily arise, and thy justice shall go before thy face, and the glory of the Lord shall gather thee up. Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall hear: thou shalt cry, and He shall say, Here I am. If thou wilt take away the chain out of the midst of thee, and cease to stretch out the finger, and to speak that which profiteth not. When thou shalt pour out thy soul to the hungry, and shalt satisfy the afflicted soul, then shall thy light rise up in darkness, and thy darkness shall be as the noonday. And the Lord will give thee rest continually, and will fill thy soul with brightness, and deliver thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a fountain of water whose waters shall not fail.
Thanks be to God.

GRADUAL:   Psalm 61: 13,14


Derivéntur fontes tui foras, et in platéis aquas tuas divide. V. Jucúndus homo, qui miserétur, et cómmodat: dispónet sermónes suos in judício, quia in ætérnum non commovébitur. Allelúja, allelúja. V. (Ps. 111: 5, 6) Dispérsit, dedit paupéribus: jústítia ejus manet in sæculum sæculi. Allelúja.

Let thy fountains be conveyed abroad, and in the streets divide thy waters. V. Acceptable is the man that showeth mercy and lendeth, he ordereth his words with judgment; because he shall not be moved forever. Alleluia, alleluia. V. (Ps. 111: 5, 6) He hath distributed, he bath given to the poor; his justice remaineth forever and ever. Alleluia.

GOSPEL:   Matthew 19: 13-21


Dominus vobiscum.
R. Et cum spiritu tuo.
Sequentia sancti Evangelii secundum Matthaeum.
R.Gloria tibi, Domine

In illo tempore: Obláti sunt Jesu párvuli, ut manus eis impóneret, et oráret. Discípuli autem increpábant eos. Jesus vero ait eis: " Sínite párvulos, et nolíte eos prohibére ad me veníre: tálium est enim regnum Coelórum." Et cum imposuísset eis manus, ábiit inde. Et ecce unus accédens, ait illi: "Magíster bone, quid boni fáciam, ut habeam vitam ætérnam?" Qui dixit ei: "Quid Me intérrogas de bono? Unus est bonus, Deus. Si autem vis ad vitam ingredi, serva mandáta." Dicit illi: Quæ? Jesus autem dixit: "Non homicídium fácies: Non adulterábis: Non fácies furtum: Non falsum testimónium dices: Honóra patrem tuum, et matrem tuam, et diliges próximum tuum sicut teípsum." Dicit illi adoléscens: "Omnia hæc custodivi a juventúte mea: quid adhuc mihi deest?" Ait illi Jesus: "Si vis perféctus esse, vade, vende quæ habes, et da paupéribus, et habébis thesáurum in coelo: et veni, séquere Me."
Laus tibi Christe.

The Lord be with you.
R. And with thy spirit.
The continuation of the holy Gospel according to Matthew.
R. Glory to Thee, O Lord

At that time, little children were presented to Him, that He should impose hands upon them, and pray. And the disciples rebuked them. But Jesus said to them, "Suffer the little children, and forbid them not to come to Me; for the kingdom of Heaven is for such." And when He had imposed hands upon them, He departed from thence. And behold one came to Him, and said to Him, "Good master, what good shall I do, that I may have life everlasting?" Who then said to him, "Why askest thou Me concerning good? One is good, God. But if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments." He said to Him, Which? And Jesus said, "Thou shalt do no murder, thou shalt shalt not commit adultery, thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not bear false witness, honor thy father and thy mother; and thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself." The young man saith to Him, All these things have I kept from my youth; what is yet wanting to me? Jesus saith to him, "If thou wilt be perfect, go, sell what thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in Heaven: and come, follow Me."
Praise be to Christ

Gratias agamus Domino Deo nostro.
R. Dignum et justum est.

Vere dignum et justum est, aequum et salutare, nos Tibi simper, et ubique gratias agere: Domine sancte, Pater omnipotens, aeterne Deus: per Christum Dominum nostrum. Per quem majestatem Tuam laudant Angeli, adorant Dominationes, tremunt Potestates, Coeli, Coelorumque Virtutes, ac beata Seraphim socia exultatione concelebrant. Cum quibus et nostras voces, ut admitti, jubeas, supplici confessione dicentes:

Lift up your hearts.
R.We have lifted them up to the Lord.
Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
R. It is meet and just.

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. Through Whom the Angels praise Thy Majesty, the Dominations worship it, the Powers stand in awe. The Heavens and the Heavenly hosts together with the blessed Seraphim in triumphant chorus unite to celebrate it. Together with them we entreat Thee, that Thou mayest bid our voices also to be admitted, while we say in lowly praise:
HOLY, HOLY, HOLY...
