 БАРАБАНЫ ВОЙНЫ I СТРАХ РОЖДЕСТВА

 ПИСЬМО ИЛЛИБАТУ III

Amice: Я получил ваше сообщение в воскресенье, на которое я не могу ответить раньше, потому что я поглощен книгой, которая у меня в руках, основанная на моем опыте общения с лондонским и нью-йоркским корреспондентом Pyresa. Итак, Альенде, я был поглощен длинным и великим романом Генриха Троя-армянина, написавшего на французском языке роман «Река С РУССКОЙ ДУШЕЙ». Я считаю, что он превосходит Толстого в рассказе о злоключениях русского народа в Первой мировой войне, падении царского режима и ужасе окопов. Это антивоенный роман, полный нравственного благородства и хорошей повествовательной работы. Это настоящая демонстрация силы, потому что только россияне умеют это делать. Это проявление силы. Crea worlds рождает персонажей, основанных на реальности, таких как медсестра Тина, которая в больнице крови видит лицо Христа в бедных раненых и пытается утешить их в их агонии или активировать их исцеление. Или лейтенант Михаил, знатный буржуа Пит, который знает, что его жена ему изменяет, и просит участвовать в опасной операции по наказанию за занятие пулеметной позиции. Задача состояла в том, чтобы спасти отряд гусар. Он хочет умереть, но пока его товарищи падают в результате нападения, он только ранен и попадает в плен к бочо. Они обращаются с ним с определенным достоинством, исцеляют и отправляют в концлагерь. Германофобии нет. Кайзеровские воины перенесли те же невзгоды, что и царские. Почему мужчины убивают друг друга, когда жизнь так прекрасна, удивляются они, роя землю и слушая песню немецкого соловья, которая заставляет их мечтать о соловьях в русских лесах? Осужденный задается вопросом. Я постоянно читаю по-французски несколько слов, когда заглядываю в словарь. Вы бы сделали это намного лучше, потому что вы двуязычный. В 64-м году, когда я работал разнорабочим в Париже, я много раз откладывал деньги в яслях и покупал книгу из коллекции почтальонов. Я собрал более сотни и подумал, что когда выйду на пенсию, если приеду, мне придется их прочитать: Андре Жид, Мориак, Моруа, которые мне нравятся меньше всего, и Au voyage au bout de la Nuit de Celine, преступник, через который они меня заставили крыша, но я счел ее достаточно сложной для моего объема и не заслуживающей похвалы. Может, я не умею читать. С тех пор Россия очаровывала меня, и в какое-то воскресенье я бывал в православном соборе недалеко от улицы Дюпон, где нам давали замену маленьким испанцам на фабриках Банлиу. Я сэкономил несколько франков и смог купить транзистор с батарейным питанием, который подарил маме. Я немного боюсь Рождества, потому что, совпадая с большими христианскими праздниками, обычно учат маленькую ножку сатаны. Вспомните, что примерно в это время произошла капитуляция СССР президенту Бушу, как капитуляция Чаушеску, которому дали мулле, или Югославию. Я также боюсь того Зелинского, украинца, который обвиняет Путина в скоплении людей на границе, уловка deja vue, потому что они вооружают его до зубов ... То же самое произошло с Ираком, они обвинили Саддама Хусейна в подготовке конфликта против гринго, и все было наоборот. Путин, который является великим лидером, попытался сдержать волынщиков, заявив, что они не готовят никакого наступления, но что американцы атакуют на Черном море и НАТО на Западе. Эти уполномоченные джентльмены не знают о позорной несправедливости, разрушениях и беженцах, которые развяжут войну таких масштабов, что она покинет планету, как голова лысого человека. Игроки чемпионата мира продолжают erre que erre. Вернулись те же старые поджигатели войны. Каждую ночь молюсь православным стоя перед иконой, чтобы этого не случилось. Я боюсь таких парней, как сварливый Байден, шарлатан Бергольо Куло Магно или Меркель, женщина всегда в штанах, а не в мини-юбке. Как хороший знаток Аргентины, в которой вы прожили несколько лет, вы будете лучше знать и сможете аргументировать. Я нахожу ваши блоги очень стимулирующими, хотя я забочусь о вашей осторожности и осмотрительности. Как я уже сказал, я устал от своего блога, в котором вчера было десять тысяч запросов. Я отдаю работу роботу: почти все США, за ними Румыния, Испания 60 и, как я уже говорил во многих других местах, многочисленные святые и святые девы. Что ты продолжаешь хорошо Мои приветствия собору Реймса и скажи мальчику с пилилой не реабилитировать свой мочевой пузырь с такой яростью, потому что нужно сказать, что идет дождь и принцы лжи и ненависти писают на нас, что является частью информационной системы. Отсутствие этики, но Бог сделал нас меньше. Salutem plurimam, мой дорогой Иллибатус

TAMBORES DE GUERRA ME DAN MIEDO LAS NAVIDADES

 CARTA A ILLIBATUS III 

Amice: Recibí tu mensaje del domingo al cual no puedo dar respuesta antes por estar enfrascado en un libro que tengo entre manos basado en mis experiencias de la corresponsalía de Londres y Nueva York para Pyresa. Allende tal, me ha absorbido una larga y gran novela de Henry Troyat el armenio que escribía en francés novela río CON EL ALMA RUSA. Yo creo que supera a Tolstoi al narrar las desventuras del pueblo ruso en la primera guerra mundial, la caída del régimen zarista y el horror de las trincheras. Es una novela antibelicista llena de nobleza moral y de buen hacer narrativo. Es un tour de forcé como sólo los rusos saben hacerlo. Es un tour de forcé. Crea mundos  da a la luz personajes basados en la realidad como esa enfermera Tina que en un hospital de sangre ve en los pobres heridos el rostro de Cristo y trata de consolarlos en su agonía o activa su curación. O el teniente Mijail un noble pete burgués que sabe que su esposa le es infiel y pide alistarse en una peligrosa operación de castigo la toma de una posición de ametralladoras. El objetivo era salvar a un escuadrón de húsares. Quiere morir pero mientras sus compañeros caen en el asalto el sólo resulta herido y cae prisionero de los bochos. Estos le tratan con cierta dignidad y le curan y lo llevan a un campo de concentración. No hay germanofobia. Los soldados del káiser sufrían las mismas penalidades que los del zar. ¿Por qué se matan los hombres unos a otros siendo la vida tan bella se preguntan mientras labra con un azadón la tierra y escucha el canto de un ruiseñor alemán que le hace soñar en los ruiseñores de los bosques Rusos? Se pregunta el penado. Leo de corrido el francés con algunas palabras consultado al diccionario. Tú lo harías mucho mejor porque eres bilingüe. El año 64 cuando yo trabajaba como obrero en Paris muchas veces el dinero de la salle a manger lo ahorraba y me compraba un libro de la colección de poche. Reuní más de un centenar y pensé cuando me jubile si llego habré de leerlos: André Gide, Mauriac, Maurois que me gusta menos y Au voyage au bout de la Nuit de Celine el proscrito que me lo ponían por las nubes pero que he encontrado bastante difícil para mis alcances y no tan meritorio de elogios. A lo mejor es que yo no sé leer. Rusia me fascinó desde entonces y algún domingo iba a la catedral ortodoxa que estaba cerca de la Rue Dupont donde nos asignaban trabajos de sustitución a los españolitos en las fábricas de la Banlieu. Ahorré unos pocos francos y pude comprar un transistor de pilas que regalé a mi madre. Tengo un poco miedo a las navidades porque coincidiendo con las grandes festividades cristianes suelen enseñar la patita Satanás. Recuerda que la rendición de la URSS al presidente Bush ocurrió por estas fechas, al igual que la de Ceaucescu al que dieron mulé, o Yugoslavia. Tengo miedo también a ese Zelinski el ucraniano que acusa a Putin de estar acumulando hombres en la frontera, una treta deja vue porque a él lo están armando hasta los dientes… Ocurrió lo mismo con Irak acusaban a Sadam Hussein de estar preparando un conflicto contra los gringos y era al revés. Putin que es un gran líder ha tratado de templar gaitas diciendo que ellos no están preparando ninguna ofensiva pero que si los americanos atacan en el mar negro y la OTAN por el Oeste. Estos señores tan empoderados no saben de los oprobios injusticias destrucciones y refugiados que desencadenaría una guerra de tales dimensiones que dejaría el planeta como la cabeza de un calvo. Los mundialistas siguen erre que erre. Han vuelto los warmongers de siempre. Yo rezo todas las noches de pie y a la manera ortodoxa delante de un icono para que esto no suceda. Me dan pavor tipos como ese carcamal de Biden o Bergoglio Culo Magno el charlatán o la Merkel la mujer siempre en pantalones jamás en minifalda. Tú como buen conocedor de la Argentina donde viviste algunos años lo sabrás mejor y podrá dar razón. Encuentro tus blogs muy estimulante aunque me hago cargo de tus cautelas y de tu prudencia. Yo como te dije estoy cansado de mi blog que ayer tuvo diez mil consultas. Estoy dando trabajo al robot: USA casi todas, seguido de Rumania, de España 60 y como decía en otras muchas partes numerosos santos y santas vírgenes. Que sigas bien. Mis saludos a la catedral de Reims y dile al niño de la pilila que no exonere la vejiga con tanto furor porque hay que decir que llueve y nos están meando los príncipes de la mentira y del odio que es parte del sistema informativo. Falta ética pero de menos nos hizo Dios. Salutem plurimam my dear Illibatus  

MR BLACKBURN OF WILBERFOSS THE GOOD NEIGHBOUR

 GOOD NEIGHBOR

BLACKBURN KIND NEIGHBOR Remembering, looking back, while balancing good and bad deeds, triumphs and failures, in the midst of stormy love - I was a naive young newlywed who did not know the inexorable rules of the game. I thought that in England my dreams were all good, according to the title of Graham Greene's novel England Made Me. I have learned two almost non-existent words in the Spanish vocabulary: compassion and comfort. I believe that when the time comes to appear before the Archangel Psikagogo, the one who weighs souls, placing them in the Romans of the Day of Judgment, In accordance with the result of weighing and what the believer notes from the "stater", bowing from the right (flock of lambs; left in a herd of goats) will lead me to hell or heaven according to my deeds. I ask Miguel that he gave me a night pass to heaven for all eternity. Compassion is the prerogative of Anglican Christianity. It consists in putting oneself in the place of another, in order to understand the reasons that led him to a certain way of life. This is the complete opposite of the vicious and envious Spanish inquisitorial temperament. "British compassion" is the result of disillusionment with medieval religious wars: the Hundred Years War, the War of the Two Roses, the social revolution that was Cromwell's Puritanism and the Reformation. One more step - and we find parliamentarism. For this, democracy has always worked in the country, and in Spain it has always been a disaster. Untranslated into Spanish, the concept of "coziness" is associated with comfort, isolation. The British live at home, they live in their own house, my home is my fortress. A small garden and a small plot of land are enough to care for your rhododendrons. They don't like vertical housing, they hate apartments, only in London they live in apartments and penthouses that North Americans call condominiums. The feeling of independence and solitude is a sacred commandment for them. A couple of retirees lived door to door. Her husband, Mr. Blackburn, worked his entire life in a mine in the Midlands, and when they retired, they retired to live in a cottage, putting all their savings into a house. My long hair, my bohemian looks, my sale naval coat, and my student scarf at the University of Hull must have raised suspicions of a rebel as well as a foreigner. I noticed this while hitchhiking in front of the Blackburn house, where once a very Catholic but very cool and whispering Austrian must have been something of a Nazi. However, I had no problems with Blackburns. I told them good morning or good afternoon. And they returned them to me with a smile. ─ Good morning Mr. Blackburn ─ Good morning Mr. Parra ─ Nice day, isn't it? ─Oh yes I felt him go out into the garden to smoke a cigarette so that his wife would not notice how he coughed when she heard him cough. The former miner suffered from silicosis, and the doctor forbade him to smoke. They knew our marriage was a shotgun marriage that was frowned upon in this conservative Yorkshire village. However, when Suzanne needed a loaf of bread or garlic, Mrs. Blackburn generously helped her. The house did not know that I was married. They thought I went to England on a study trip to prepare for the competitive exams in Spain. We didn't have a telephone, we had a rented TV, only a radio that my grandmother gave Suzanne. On the birthday of their daughter Elena, they saw me very excited. I cried with sadness because I got married without the permission of my mother, who had a singing voice, and with joy, because for me that day was the happiest of my life. Mr. Blackburn invited Mary Higherty and me to come to his house. They offered us a cup of tea and I asked my neighbor to call Madrid to tell my parents that they were grandparents. ─ Of course, Tony. Why not The call was ten pounds and poor Mr. Blackburn did not charge me. He was a good neighbor. The man from the parable of the good Samaritan.

 ДОБРЫЙ СОСЕД

МИСТЕР БЛЭКБЕРН, ДОБРЫЙ СОСЕД Вспоминая, оглядываясь назад, во время уравновешивания хороших и плохих поступков, триумфов и неудач, посреди бурной любви - я был наивным молодым молодоженом, не знавшим неумолимых правил игры. Я считал, что в Англии моей мечты все были хороши согласно названию романа Грэма Грина «Англия создала меня». Я выучила два почти несуществующих слова в испанском словаре: «сострадание» и «уют». Я верю, что, когда придет время предстать перед архангелом Псикагого, тот, кто взвешивает души, помещая их в Римлянам Судного Дня, В соответствии с результатом взвешивания и тем, что отмечает верующий из «статера», кланяясь от право (стадо ягнят; оставленное в стаде козлов) приведет меня в ад или рай в соответствии с моими делами. Я прошу Мигеля, что он подарил мне ночной пропуск в рай на всю вечность. Сострадание - прерогатива англиканского христианства. Он состоит в том, чтобы поставить себя на место другого, чтобы понять причины, которые привели его к определенному образу жизни. Это полная противоположность злобному и завистливому испанскому инквизиторскому темпераменту. «Британское сострадание» является результатом разочарования в средневековых религиозных войнах: Столетней войне, войне двух роз, социальной революции, которая была пуританством Кромвеля и Реформацией. Еще один шаг - и мы находим парламентаризм. Ради чего в стране всегда работала демократия, а в Испании она всегда была катастрофой. Непереводимое на испанский язык понятие «уют» связано с комфортом, изоляцией. Англичане ведут домашнюю жизнь, они живут в своем доме, мой дом - моя крепость. Небольшого сада и небольшого участка земли достаточно, чтобы ухаживать за вашими рододендронами. Им не нравится вертикальное жилье, они ненавидят квартиры, только в Лондоне они живут в квартирах и в тех пентхаусах, которые североамериканцы называют кондоминиумами. Чувство независимости и уединения - для них священная заповедь. От двери к двери жила пара пенсионеров. Ее муж, мистер Блэкберн, всю свою жизнь проработал на шахте в Мидлендсе, а когда они вышли на пенсию, они ушли на пенсию, чтобы жить в коттедже, вложив все свои сбережения в дом. Из-за моих длинных волос, моей богемной внешности, моего военно-морского пальто, купленного на распродаже, и моего студенческого шарфа в Университете Халла, должно быть, возникли подозрения у бунтаря, а также иностранца. Я заметил это, проезжая автостопом перед домом Блэкбернов, где однажды очень католическая, но очень крутая и шепчущая австрийка, должно быть, была чем-то вроде нацистки. Однако с Blackburns у меня проблем не было. Я сказал им доброе утро или добрый день. И они мне их вернули с улыбкой. ─ Доброе утро, мистер Блэкберн ─ Доброе утро, мистер Парра ─ Хороший день, не правда ли? ─О да Я почувствовал, как он вышел в сад, чтобы выкурить сигарету, чтобы его жена не заметила, как он закашлялся, когда услышала, как он кашляет. Бывший шахтер болел силикозом, и врач запретил ему курить. Они знали, что наш брак был браком по принципу ружья, который не одобрялся в этой консервативно настроенной йоркширской деревне. Однако, когда Сюзанне не хватало буханки хлеба или чеснока, миссис Блэкберн щедро ей помогала. Дома не знали, что я женился. Они думали, что я поехал в Англию в учебную поездку, чтобы подготовиться к конкурсным экзаменам в Испании. У нас не было телефона, у нас был арендованный телевизор, только радио, которое бабушка подарила Сюзанне. В день рождения дочери Елены они увидели меня очень взволнованной. Я плакал от печали, потому что я женился без разрешения моей матери, у которой был певческий голос, и от радости, потому что для меня тот день был самым счастливым в моей жизни. Мистер Блэкберн предложил Мэри Хигерти и мне зайти к нему в дом. Они предложили нам чашку чая, и я попросил соседа позвонить в Мадрид, чтобы сообщить родителям, что они бабушка и дедушка. ─ Конечно, Тони. Почему нет Звонок стоил десять фунтов, и бедный мистер Блэкберн не взимал с меня плату. Он был хорошим соседом. Человек из притчи о добром самарянине.

UN BUEN VECINO

 MISTER BLACKBURN THE  GOOD NEIGHBOUR

 

Recapacitando, al mirar atrás, a la hora de poner en la balanza los hechos buenos y los malos, los triunfos y los fracasos, en medio de la efervescencia de aquellos amores─ yo era un ingenuo joven recién casado que desconocía las reglas inexorables del juego pues creía que todo el mundo era bueno en la Inglaterra de mis sueños a tenor con el título de una novela de Graham Green "England made me".

Aprendí dos palabras casi inexistentes en el vocabulario español: "compassion" y "cosiness".

Confío que cuando llegue la hora de comparecer ante el arcángel Psicagogo  el que pesa las almas poniéndolas en la romana del día del Juicio, Según el resultado del pesaje y lo que marque el fiel de la "statera" se inclinándose  del derecho (rebaño de los corderos; izquierdo en el  tropel de los cabritos), me llevará al infierno o al cielo a tenor de mis obras. Que me conceda el pase de pernocta al Paraíso por toda la eternidad yo le pido a Miguel. La compasión es una prerrogativa del cristianismo anglicano.

Consiste en ponerse en los zapatos del otro para comprender las razones que lo llevaron a un determinado modo de proceder. Es lo contrario que el avieso y envidioso del temperamento inquisitorial español.

La "british compassion" resulta del desencanto de sus guerras de religión medievales: la guerra de los cien años, la de loas dos Rosas, la revolución social que supuso el puritanismo de Cromwell y la Reforma. Un paso más y nos encontramos con el parlamentarismo. 

Por cuya causa la democracia funcionó siempre en el país y ha sido siempre un desastre en España. El concepto "cosiness" intraducible al castellano tiene que ver con el confort, el aislamiento. 

Los ingleses llevan una vida doméstica, se embrocan en su hogar my home is my castle. Basta un pequeño jardín and a little plot of land cerca de la tierra para cuidar sus rododendros. No les gusta la vivienda en vertical, aborrecen los pisos sólo en Londres viven en flats y esos penthouses que denominan los norteamericanos condominios. 

El sentido de la independencia y la privacidad es para ellos un mandamiento sagrado.

Puerta por puerta vivía un matrimonio de jubilados. El marido Mr. Blackburn había trabajado toda su vida en una mina de los midlands y al alcanzar el retiro se habían retirado a vivir a la casita de campo invirtiendo en la vivienda todos los ahorros de una vida.

 Yo por mi pelo largo mi aspecto bohemio mi abrigo de la Navy comprado en las rebajas y mi bufanda de estudiante de la universidad de Hull debía de levantar alguna sospecha de contestatario y además extranjero. 

Yo lo notaba al pasar cuando iba y venía en auto stop enfrente de la casa de los Blackburns donde día una señora austriaca muy católica pero muy alcahueta y murmuradora  debía de ser algo nazi. 

Sin embargo, con los Blackburn no tuve ningún problema. Les daba los buenos días o las buenas tardes. Y ellos me los devolvían con una sonrisa.

─Good morning Mr. Blackburn

─Good morning Mr Parra

─Nice day isnt it

─O yes

Yo le sentía salir al jardín a fumar un cigarro para pasar inadvertido con su mujer que se ponía de uñas cuando lo oía toser. El antiguo minero padecía de silicosis y el doctor le había prohibido el tabaco.

 Ellos eran conscientes de que nuestro matrimonio había sido un matrimonio a cañonazos (shotgun marriage) lo cual no era bien visto en aquella aldea del Yorkshire de ideas tan conservadoras. Sin embargo, cuando Suzanne le faltaba a una barra de pan o un ajo Mrs. Blackburn la socorría con generosidad.

En casa no sabían que yo me había casado. Pensaban que había ido a Inglaterra en viaje de estudios para prepararme a las oposiciones en España. No teníamos teléfono, la tele alquilada, sólo una aparato de radio que le había regalado su abuela a Suzanne.

 El día del nacimiento de mi hija Helen me vieron muy emocionado. Yo lloraba de tristeza porque había contraído matrimonio sin la autorización de mi madre que era la que llevaba la voz cantante y de alegría pues para mi aquella tarde había sido la más feliz de mi vida. Mr. Blackburn me ofreció a Mary Heagerty y a mi entrar en su casa. Nos ofrecieron una taza de té y le pedí a mi vecino si podía telefonear a Madrid para anunciar a mis padres que eran abuelos.

─Sure, Tony. Why not

La llamada costó diez libras y el pobre Mr. Blackburn no me las cobró. He was a good neighbour. El hombre de la parábola del buen samaritano.

Take away from us our iniquities, we beseech Thee, O Lord, that we may be worthy to enter with pure minds into the Holy of Holies, through Christ our Lord. Amen. His hands joined, and bowing down over the altar, the priest says: We beseech Thee, O Lord, by the merits of Thy Saints, He kisses the sacred stone whose relics are here, and of all the Saints, that Thou wouldst vouchsafe to forgive me all my sins. Amen.

At Low Masses, the priest, bowing down at the middle of the altar, with his hands joined, says: Cleanse my heart and my lips, O almighty God, who didst cleanse the lips of the prophet Isaias with a burning coal, and vouchsafe, through Thy gracious mercy, so to purify me, that I may worthily announce Thy holy Gospel. Through Christ our Lord. Amen. Give me Thy blessing, O Lord. The Lord be in my heart and on my lips, that I may worthily and in a becoming manner, proclaim His holy Gospel. Amen. P. The Lord be with you. S. And with thy spirit. Continuation ✠ of the Holy Gospel according to Matthew R. Glory be to Thee, O Lord. Matt 13:44-52 At that time, Jesus spoke this parable to His disciples: The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in a field; he who finds it hides it, and in his joy goes and sells all that he has and buys that field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls. When he finds a single pearl of great price, he goes and sells all that he has and buys it. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net cast into the sea that gathered in fish of every kind. When it was filled, they hauled it out, and sitting down on the beach, they gathered the good fish into vessels, but threw away the bad. So will it be at the end of the world. The angels will go out and separate the wicked from among the just, and will cast them into the furnace of fire, where there will be the weeping, and the gnashing of teeth. Have you understood all these things? They said to Him, Yes. And He said to them, So then, every Scribe instructed in the kingdom of heaven is like a householder who brings forth from his storeroom things new and old. R. Praise be to Thee, O Christ. S. By the words of the Gospel may our sins be blotted out.

S. And with thy spirit. After saluting the people once more, the priest enters upon the Sacrifice of the Mass proper and urges the faithful to pray with him. Let us pray. Ps4 4:15-16 Behind her the virgins of her train are brought to the King. They are borne in to You with gladness and joy; they enter the palace of the Lord, the King.
Top  Next Quo dicto, si est Missa sollemnis, Diaconus porrigit Celebranti Patenam cum Hostia: si privata, Sacerdos ipse accipit Patenam cum Hostia, quam offerens, dicit: Súscipe, sancte Pater, omnípotens ætérne Deus, hanc immaculátam hóstiam, quam ego indígnus fámulus tuus óffero tibi Deo meo vivo et vero, pro innumerabílibus peccátis, et offensiónibus, et neglegéntiis meis, et pro ómnibus circumstántibus, sed et pro ómnibus fidélibus christiánis vivis atque defúnctis: ut mihi, et illis profíciat ad salútem in vitam ætérnam. Amen.	15 Then the priest reads the Offertory-verse, a short quotation from Holy Scripture which varies with the Mass of each day. This being finished, he offers the bread and wine, which, by virtue of the words of consecration, he is going to change into the adorable Body and Blood of Jesus Christ. He takes the paten with the host and offering it up, says: Accept, O holy Father, almighty and eternal God, this unspotted host, which I, Thy unworthy servant, offer unto Thee, my living and true God, for my innumerable sins, offenses, and negligences, and for all here present: as also for all faithful Christians, both living and dead, that it may avail both me and them for salvation unto life everlasting. Amen.

Diaconus ministrat vinum, Subdiaconus aquam in Calice: vel si privata est Missa, utrumque infundit Sacerdos, et aquam miscendam in Calice benedicit signo crucis, dicens: Deus, ✠ qui humánæ substántiæ dignitátem mirabíliter condidísti, et mirabílius reformásti: da nobis per huius aquæ et vini mystérium, eius divinitátis esse consórtes, qui humanitátis nostræ fíeri dignátus est párticeps, Iesus Christus, Fílius tuus, Dóminus noster: Qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitáte Spíritus Sancti Deus: per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.	16 Making the Sign of the Cross with the paten, he places the host upon the corporal. He pours wine and water into the chalice, blessing the water before it is mixed. He pours a few drops of water into the chalice containing wine, in remembrance of the water and blood which flowed from the side of Jesus when pierced by the soldier's lance. O God, who, in creating human nature, didst wonderfully dignify it, and still more wonderfully restore it, grant that, by the Mystery of this water and wine, we may be made partakers of His divine nature, who vouchsafed to be made partaker of our human nature, even Jesus Christ our Lord, Thy Son, who with Thee, liveth and reigneth in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God: world without end.

Amen. The priest makes the Sign of the Cross with the chalice, places it upon the corporal, and covers it with the pall. Then, with his hands joined upon the Altar, and slightly bowing down, he says: Accept us, O Lord, in the spirit of humility and contrition of heart, and grant that the sacrifice which we offer this day in Thy sight may be pleasing to Thee, O Lord God. Raising his eyes towards heaven, extending and then joining his hands, the priest makes the Sign of the Cross over the host and the chalice, while he invokes the Holy Spirit. Come, O almighty and eternal God, the Sanctifier, and bless ✠ this Sacrifice, prepared for the glory of Thy holy Name.

Psalm 25. 6-12 I will wash my hands among the innocent: and I will compass Thine altar, O Lord That I may hear the voice of praise: and tell of all Thy wonderous works. I have loved, O Lord, the beauty of Thy house and the place where Thy glory dwelleth. Take not away my soul, O God, with the wicked: nor my life with blood-thirsty men.

Top  Next Tunc celebrans inclinat se ante medium altaris, et manibus iunctis super illud, dicit secrete: Pláceat tibi, sancta Trínitas, obséquium servitútis meæ: et præsta; ut sacrifícium, quod óculis tuæ maiestátis indígnus óbtuli, tibi sit acceptábile, mihíque et ómnibus, pro quibus illud óbtuli, sit, te miseránte, propitiábile. Per Christum, Dóminum nostrum. Amen.	53 May the performance of my homage be pleasing to Thee, O holy Trinity: and grant that the Sacrifice which I, though unworthy, have offered up in the sight of Thy Majesty, may be acceptable to Thee, and through Thy mercy, be a propitiation for me, and for all those for whom I have offered it. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Top  Next Deinde osculatur Altare: et elevatis oculis, extendens, elevans et iungens manus, caputque Cruci inclínans, dicit: Benedícat vos omnípotens Deus, et versus ad populum, semel tantum benedícens, etiam in Missis sollemnibus; In Missa Pontificali ter benedicitur, ut in Pontificali habetur. Deinde prosequitur: Pater, et Fílius, ✠ et Spíritus Sanctus. R. Amen.	54 He kisses the altar, and raising his eyes, extending, raising and joining his hands, he bows down his head and says: P. May almighty God the Father, Son, ✠ and Holy Ghost, bless you. S. Amen.
Top  Next Deinde sacerdos in cornu Evangelii, iunctis manibus dicit: V. Dóminus vobíscum. R. Et cum spíritu tuo. Et signans signo crucis primum Altare vel librum, deinde se in fronte, ore et pectore, dicit: Inítium +︎ sancti Evangélii secúndum Ioánnem R. Glória tibi, Dómine. Ioann. 1, 1-14. Iunctis manibus prosequitur: In princípio erat Verbum, et Verbum erat apud Deum, et Deus erat Verbum. Hoc erat in princípio apud Deum. Omnia per ipsum facta sunt: et sine ipso factum est nihil, quod factum est: in ipso vita erat, et vita erat lux hóminum: et lux in ténebris lucet, et ténebræ eam non comprehendérunt. Fuit homo missus a Deo, cui nomen erat Ioánnes. Hic venit in testimónium, ut testimónium perhibéret de lúmine, ut omnes créderent per illum. Non erat ille lux, sed ut testimónium perhibéret de lúmine. Erat lux vera, quæ illúminat omnem hóminem veniéntem in hunc mundum. In mundo erat, et mundus per ipsum factus est, et mundus eum non cognóvit. In própria venit, et sui eum non recepérunt. Quotquot autem recepérunt eum, dedit eis potestátem fílios Dei fíeri, his, qui credunt in nómine eius: qui non ex sanguínibus, neque ex voluntáte carnis, neque ex voluntáte viri, sed ex Deo nati sunt. Genuflectit dicens: Et Verbum caro factum est, Et surgens prosequitur: et habitávit in nobis: et vídimus glóriam eius, glóriam quasi Unigéniti a Patre, plenum grátiæ et veritátis. R. Deo grátias. Finito Evangelio sancti Ioannis, discedens ab Altari, pro gratiarum actione dicit Ant. Trium puerórum, cum reliquis, ut habetur in principio Missalis.	55 Then turning to the Gospel side of the altar, the priest says: P. The Lord be with you. S. And with thy spirit. He then traces the Sign of the Cross, first upon the altar, and then upon his forehead, lips, and breast, and says: The beginning +︎ of the holy Gospel according to John R. Glory be to Thee, O Lord. John 1, 1-14 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him, and without Him was made nothing that was made: in Him was life, and the life was the Light of men; and the Light shineth in darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. This man came for a witness, to testify concerning the Light, that all might believe through Him. He was not the Light, but he was to testify concerning the Light. That was the true Light, which enlighteneth every man that cometh into this world. He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knew Him not. He came unto His own, and His own received Him not. But as many as received Him to them He gave power to become sons of God, to them that believe in His Name, who are born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. Here all kneel. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us: and we saw His glory, the glory as of the Only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. R. Thanks be to God.
