Top  Next Oratio Deinde osculatur Altare in medio, et versus ad populum dicit: Postea dicit: Orémus, et Orationes, unam aut plures, ut ordo Officii postulat. Sequitur Epistola, Graduale, Tractus, vel Allelúia cum Versu, aut Sequentia, prout Tempus aut qualitas Missæ postulat. Orémus. V. Flectámus génua. R. Leváte. Præsta, quǽsumus, omnípotens Deus: ut, qui nostris excéssibus incessánter afflígimur, per unigéniti Fílii tui passiónem liberémur: Qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitáte Spíritus Sancti Deus per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum. R. Amen. Lectio Léctio Isaíæ Prophétæ Isa 63:1-7 Hæc dicit Dóminus Deus: Dícite fíliæ Sion: Salvátor tuus venit: ecce, merces eius cum eo. Quis est iste, qui venit de Edom, tinctis véstibus de Bosra? Iste formósus in stola sua, grádiens in multitúdine fortitúdinis suæ. Ego, qui loquor iustítiam, et propugnátor sum ad salvándum. Quare ergo rubrum est induméntum tuum, et vestiménta tua sicut calcántium in torculári? Tórcuar calcávi solus, et de géntibus non est vir mecum: calcávi eos in furóre meo, et conculcávi eos in ira mea: et aspérsus est sanguis eórum super vestiménta mea, et ómnia induménta mea inquinávi. Dies enim ultiónis in corde meo, annus redemptiónis meæ venit. Circumspéxi, et non erat auxiliátor: quæsívi, et non fuit, qui adiuváret: et salvávit mihi bráchium meum, et indignátio mea ipsa auxiliáta est mihi. Et conculcávi pópulos in furóre meo, et inebriávi eos in indignatióne mea, et detráxi in terram virtútem eórum. Miseratiónum Dómini recordábor, laudem Dómini super ómnibus, quæ réddidit nobis Dóminus, Deus noster. Graduale Ps 68:18 et 2-3 Ne avértas fáciem tuam a púero tuo, quóniam tríbulor: velóciter exáudi me. V. Salvum me fac, Deus, quóniam intravérunt aquæ usque ad ánimam meam: infíxus sum in limo profúndi, et non est substántia. Oratio V. Dóminus vobíscum. R. Et cum spíritu tuo. Orémus. Deus, qui pro nobis Fílium tuum Crucis patíbulum subire voluísti, ut inimíci a nobis expélleres potestatem: concéde nobis fámulis tuis; ut resurrectiónis grátiam consequámur. Per eúndem Dóminum nostrum Iesum Christum Fílium tuum, qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitáte Spíritus Sancti, Deus, per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum. R. Amen.	9 Collect Then the priest kisses the altar, and turning to the people says: The Collects mean the collected prayers of all the faithful assisting at the Holy Sacrifice. Raising his voice, his hands, and his sentiments to God, the priest excites the faithful to unite their prayers with his. Let us pray. V. Let us kneel. R. Arise. Grant we beseech thee Almighty God, that we who are continually afflicted by reason of our waywardness, may be delivered by the Passion of thy only-begotten Son. Who livest and reignest with God the Father, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, world without end. R. Amen Lesson Lesson from the book of Isaias the Prophet Isa 63:1-7 Thus sayeth the Lord God: telleth the daughter of Sion: Behold they Saviour cometh; behold His reward is with Him and His work before Him.Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bosra, this beautiful one in his robe, walking in the greatness of his strength. I, that speak justice, and am a defender to save. Why then is thy apparel red, and thy garments like theirs that tread in the winepress? I have trodden the winepress alone, and of the Gentiles there is not a man with me: I have trampled on them in my indignation, and have trodden them down in my wrath, and their blood is sprinkled upon my garments, and I have stained all my apparel. For the day of vengeance is in my heart, the year of my redemption is come. I looked about, and there was none to help: I sought, and there was none to give aid: and my own arm hath saved for me, and my indignation itself hath helped me. And I have trodden down the people in my wrath, and have made them drunk in my indignation, and have brought down their strength to the earth. I will remember the tender mercies of the Lord, the praise of the Lord for all the things that the Lord hath bestowed upon us. Gradual Ps 68:18; 68:2-3 And turn not away thy face from thy servant: for I am in trouble, hear me speedily. V. Save me, O God: for the waters are come in even unto my soul. [3] I stick fast in the mire of the deep: and there is no sure standing. Collect V. The Lord be with you. R. And with thy spirit. Let us pray. O God, who to drive far from us the power of the enemy, didst will that thy Son should suffer for us on the gibbet of the cross, grant us thy servants, that we mayest obtain the grace of the resurrection. Through the same Jesus Christ, thy Son, Our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. R. Amen.
Top  Next Lectio Léctio Isaíæ Prophétæ Is 53:1-12. In diébus illis: Dixit Isaías: Dómine, quis crédidit audi tui nostro? et bráchium Dómini cui revelátum est? Et ascéndet sicut virgúltum coram eo, et sicut radix de terra sitiénti: non est spécies ei neque decor: et vídimus eum, et non erat aspéctus, et desiderávimus eum: despéctum et novíssimum virórum, virum dolórum, et sciéntem infirmitátem: et quasi abscónditus vultus eius et despéctus, unde nec reputávimus eum. Vere languóres nostros ipse tulit, et dolóres nostros ipse portávit: et nos putávimus eum quasi leprósum, et percússum a Deo, et humiliátum. Ipse autem vulnerátus est propter iniquitátes nostras, attrítus est propter scélera nostra: disciplína pacis nostræ super eum, et livóre eius sanáti sumus. Omnes nos quasi oves errávimus, unusquísque in viam suam declinávit: et pósuit Dóminus in eo iniquitátem ómnium nostrum. Oblátus est, quia ipse vóluit, et non apéruit os suum: sicut ovis ad occisiónem ducátur, et quasi agnus coram tondénte se obmutéscet, et non apériet os suum. De angústia et de iudício sublátus est: generatiónem eius quis enarrábit? quia abscíssus est de terra vivéntium: propter scelus pópuli mei percússi eum. Et dabit ímpios pro sepultúra, et dívitem pro morte sua: eo quod iniquitátem non fécerit, neque dolus fúerit in ore eius. Et Dóminus vóluit contérere eum in infirmitáte: si posúerit pro peccáto ánimam suam, vidébit semen longævum, et volúntas Dómini in manu eius dirigátur. Pro eo, quod laborávit ánima eius, vidébit, et saturábitur: in sciéntia sua iustificábit ipse iustus servus meus multos, et iniquitátes eórum ipse portábit. Ideo dispértiam ei plúrimos: et fórtium dívidet spólia, pro eo, quod trádidit in mortem ánimam suam, et cum scelerátis reputátus est: et ipse peccáta multórum tulit, et pro transgressóribus rogávit. R. Deo grátias.	10 Lesson Lesson from the book of Isaias the Prophet Isa 53:1-12 Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed? And he shall grow up as a tender plant before him, and as a root out of a thirsty ground: there is no beauty in him, nor comeliness: and we have seen him, and there was no sightliness, that we should be desirous of him: Despised, and the most abject of men, a man of sorrows, and acquainted with infirmity: and his look was as it were hidden and despised, whereupon we esteemed him not. Surely he hath borne our infirmities and carried our sorrows: and we have thought him as it were a leper, and as one struck by God and afflicted. But he was wounded for our iniquities, he was bruised for our sins: the chastisement of our peace was upon him, and by his bruises we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray, every one hath turned aside into his own way: and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was offered because it was his own will, and he opened not his mouth: he shall be led as a sheep to the slaughter, and shall be dumb as a lamb before his shearer, and he shall not open his mouth. He was taken away from distress, and from judgment: who shall declare his generation? because he is cut off out of the land of the living: for the wickedness of my people have I struck him. And he shall give the ungodly for his burial, and the rich for his death: because he hath done no iniquity, neither was there deceit in his mouth. And the Lord was pleased to bruise him in infirmity: if he shall lay down his life for sin, he shall see a long-lived seed, and the will of the Lord shall be prosperous in his hand. Because his soul hath laboured, he shall see and be filled: by his knowledge shall this my just servant justify many, and he shall bear their iniquities. Therefore will I distribute to him very many, and he shall divide the spoils of the strong, because he hath delivered his soul unto death, and was reputed with the wicked: and he hath borne the sins of many, and hath prayed for the transgressors. R. Thanks be to God.
Top  Next Graduale Ps. 101:2-5, 14 Dómine, exáudi oratiónem meam, et clamor meus ad te véniat. V. Ne avértas fáciem tuam a me: in quacúmque die tríbulor, inclína ad me aurem tuam. V. In quacúmque die invocávero te, velóciter exáudi me. V. Quia defecérunt sicut fumus dies mei: et ossa mea sicut in frixório confríxa sunt. V. Percússus sum sicut fænum, et áruit cor meum: quia oblítus sum manducáre panem meum. V. Tu exsúrgens, Dómine, miseréberis Sion: quia venit tempus miseréndi eius.	11 Gradual Ps. 101:2-5,14 Hear, O Lord, my prayer: and let my cry come to thee. V. Turn not away thy face from me: in the day when I am in trouble, incline thy ear to me. V. In what day soever I shall call upon thee, hear me speedily. V For my days are vanished like smoke: and my bones are grown dry like fuel for the fire. V. I am smitten as grass, and my heart is withered: because I forgot to eat my bread. V. Thou shalt arise and have mercy on Sion: for it is time to have mercy on it, for the time is come.
Top  Next Evangelium Munda cor meum ac labia mea, omnípotens Deus, qui labia Isaíæ Prophétæ cálculo mundásti igníto: ita me tua grata miseratióne dignáre mundáre, ut sanctum Evangélium tuum digne váleam nuntiáre. Per Christum, Dóminum nostrum. Amen. D. Iube, domne, benedícere. S. Dóminus sit in córdibus vestris et in lábiis vestris: ut digne et competénter annuntiétis Evangélium suum: In nómine Patris, et Fílii, ✠ et Spíritus Sancti. D. Amen. Pássio Dómini nostri Iesu Christi secúndum Lucam. Luc 22:39-71; 23:1-53 In illo témpore: Egréssus Iesus ibat secúndum consuetúdinem in montem Olivárum. Secúti sunt autem illum et discípuli. Et cum pervenísset ad locum, dixit illis: I. Oráte, ne intrétis in tentatiónem. C. Et ipse avúlsus est ab eis, quantum iactus est lápidis, et pósitis génibus orábat, dicens: I. Pater, si vis, transfer cálicem istum a me: verúmtamen non mea volúntas, sed tua fiat. C. Appáruit autem illi Angelus de cœlo, ccnfórtans eum. Et factus in agónia, prolíxius orábat. Et factus est sudor eius, sicut guttæ sánguinis decurréntis in terram. Et cum surrexísset ab oratióne, et venísset ad discípulos suos, invénit eos dormiéntes præ tristítia. Et ait illis: I.Quid dormítis? súrgite, oráte, ne intrétis in tentatiónem. C. Adhuc eo loquénte, ecce turba: et qui vocabátur Iudas, unus de duódecim, antecedébat eos: et appropinquávit Iesu, ut oscularétur eum. Iesus autem dixit illi: I. Iuda, ósculo Fílium hóminis tradis? C. Vidéntes autem hi, qui circa ipsum erant, quod futúrum erat, dixérunt ei: S. Dómine, si percútimus in gladio? C. Et percússit unus ex illis servum príncipis sacerdótum, et amputávit aurículam eius déxteram. Respóndens autem Iesus, ait: I. Sínite usque huc. C. Et cum tetigísset aurículam eius, sanávit eum. Dixit autem Iesus ad eos, qui vénerant ad se, príncipes sacerdótum et magistrátus templi et senióres: I. Quasi ad latrónem exístis cum gládiis et fústibus? Cum cotídie vobíscum fúerim in templo, non extendístis manus in me: sed hæc est hora vestra et potéstas tenebrárum. C. Comprehendéntes autem eum, duxérunt ad domum príncipis sacerdótum: Petrus vero sequebátur a longe. Accénso autem igne in médio átrii, et circumsedéntibus illis, erat Petrus in médio eórum. Quem cum vidísset ancílla quædam sedéntem ad lumen, et eum fuísset intúita, dixit: S. Et hic cum illo erat. C. At ille negávit eum, dicens: S. Múlier, non novi illum. C. Et post pusíllum álius videns eum, dixit: S. Et tu de illis es. C. Petrus vero ait: S. O homo, non sum. C. Et intervállo facto quasi horæ uníus, álius quidam affirmábat, dicens: S. Vere et hic cum illo erat: nam et Galilæus est. C. Et ait Petrus: S. Homo, néscio, quid dicis. C. Et contínuo adhuc illo loquénte cantávit gallus. Et convérsus Dóminus respéxit Petrum. Et recordátus est Petrus verbi Dómini, sicut díxerat: Quia priúsquam gallus cantet, ter me negábis. Et egréssus foras Petrus flevit amáre. Et viri, qui tenébant illum, illudébant ei, cædéntes. Et velavérunt eum et percutiébant fáciem eius: et interrogábant eum, dicéntes: S. Prophetíza, quis est, qui te percússit? C. Et alia multa blasphemántes dicébant in eum. Et ut factus est dies, convenérunt senióres plebis et príncipes sacerdótum et scribæ, et duxérunt illum in concílium suum, dicentes: S. Si tu es Christus, dic nobis. C. Et ait illis: I. Si vobis díxero, non credétis mihi: si autem et interrogávero, non respondébitis mihi, neque dimíttétis. Ex hoc autem erit Fílius hóminis sedens a dextris virtútis Dei. C. Dixérunt autem omnes: S. Tu ergo es Fílius Dei? C. Qui ait: I. Vos dicitis, quia ego sum. C. At illi dixérunt: S. Quid adhuc desiderámus testimónium? Ipsi enim audívimus de ore eius. C. Et surgens omnis multitúdo eórum, duxérunt illum ad Pilátum. Cœpérunt autem illum accusáre, dicéntes: S. Hunc invénimus subverténtem gentem nostram, et prohibéntem tribúta dare Cæsari, et dicéntem se Christum regem esse. C. Pilátus autem interrogávit eum, dicens: S. Tu es Rex Iudæórum? C. At ille respóndens, ait: I. Tu dicis. C. Ait autem Pilátus ad príncipes sacerdótum et turbas: S. Nihil invénio causæ in hoc hómine. C. At illi invalescébant, dicéntes: S. Cómmovet pópulum, docens per univérsam Iudæam, incípiens a Galilæa usque huc. C. Pilátus autem áudiens Galilæam, interrogávit, si homo Galilæus esset. Et ut cognóvit, quod de Heródis potestáte esset, remísit eum ad Heródem, qui et ipse Ierosólymis erat illis diébus. Heródes autem, viso Iesu, gavísus est valde. Erat enim cúpiens ex multo témpore vidére eum, eo quod audíerat multa de eo, et sperábat signum áliquod vidére ab eo fíeri. Interrogábat autem eum multis sermónibus. At ipse nihil illi respondébat. Stabant autem príncipes sacerdótum et scribæ, constánter accusántes eum. Sprevit autem illum Heródes cum exércitu suo: et illúsit indútum veste alba, et remísit ad Pilátum. Et facti sunt amíci Heródes et Pilátus in ipsa die: nam ántea inimíci erant ad ínvicem. Pilátus autem, convocátis princípibus sacerdótum et magistrátibus et plebe, dixit ad illos: S. Obtulístis mihi hunc hóminem, quasi averténtem pópulum, et ecce, ego coram vobis intérrogans, nullam causam invéni in hómine isto ex his, in quibus eum accusátis. Sed neque Heródes: nam remísi vos ad illum, et ecce, nihil dignum morte actum est ei. Emendátum ergo illum dimíttam. C. Necésse autem habébat dimíttere eis per diem festum, unum. Exclamávit autem simul univérsa turba, dicens: S. Tolle hunc, et dimítte nobis Barábbam. C. Qui erat propter seditiónem quandam fáciam in civitáte et homicídium missus in cárcerem. Iterum autem Pilátus locútus est ad eos, volens dimíttere Iesum. At illi succlamábant, dicéntes: S. Crucifíge, crucifíge eum. C. Ille autem tértio dixit ad illos: S. Quid enim mali fecit iste? Nullam causam mortis invénio in eo: corrípiam ergo illum et dimíttam. C. At illi instábant vócibus magnis, postulántes, ut crucifigerétur. Et invalescébant voces eórum. Et Pilátus adiudicávit fíeri petitiónem eórum. Dimísit autem illis eum, qui propter homicídium et seditiónem missus fúerat in cárcerem, quem petébant: Iesum vero trádidit voluntáti eórum. Et cum dúcerent eum, apprehendérunt Simónem quendam Cyrenénsem, veniéntem de villa: et imposuérunt illi crucem portáre post Iesum. Sequebátur autem illum multa turba pópuli, et mulíerum, quæ plangébant et lamentabántur eum. Convérsus autem ad illas Iesus dixit: I. Filiæ Ierúsalem, nolíte flere super me, sed super vos ipsas flete et super fílios vestros. Quóniam ecce vénient dies, in quibus dicent: Beátæ stériles, et veníres, qui non genuérunt, et úbera, quæ non lactavérunt. Tunc incípient dícere móntibus: Cádite super nos; et cóllibus: Operíte nos. Quia si in víridi ligno hæc fáciunt, in árido quid fiet? C. Ducebántur autem et alii duo nequam cum eo, ut interficeréntur. Et postquam venérunt in locum, qui vocátur Calváriæ, ibi crucifixérunt eum: et latrónes, unum a dextris et álterum a sinístris.

Through Christ our Lord. Amen. D. Sir, give me thy blessing. S. The Lord be in your hearts and on your lips, that you may worthily and in a becoming manner, proclaim His holy Gospel. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, ✠ and of the Holy Ghost. D. Amen. The Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ according to Luke. Luc 22:39-71; 23:1-53 And his disciples also followed him. And when he was come to the place, he said to them: Pray, lest ye enter into temptation. And he was withdrawn away from them a stone's cast; and kneeling down, he prayed, Saying: Father, if thou wilt, remove this chalice from me: but yet not my will, but thine be done. And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening him. And being in an agony, he prayed the longer. And his sweat became as drops of blood, trickling down upon the ground. And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow. And he said to them: Why sleep you? arise, pray, lest you enter into temptation. As he was yet speaking, behold a multitude; and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near to Jesus, for to kiss him. And Jesus said to him: Judas, dost thou betray the Son of man with a kiss? And they that were about him, seeing what would follow, said to him: Lord, shall we strike with the sword? And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear. But Jesus answering, said: Suffer ye thus far. And when he had touched his ear, he healed him. And Jesus said to the chief priests, and magistrates of the temple, and the ancients, that were come unto him: Are ye come out, as it were against a thief, with swords and clubs? When I was daily with you in the temple, you did not stretch forth your hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness. And apprehending him, they led him to the high priest's house. But Peter followed afar off. And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were sitting about it, Peter was in the midst of them. Whom when a certain servant maid had seen sitting at the light, and had earnestly beheld him, she said: This man also was with him. But he denied him, saying: Woman, I know him not. And after a little while, another seeing him, said: Thou also art one of them. But Peter said: O man, I am not. And after the space, as it were of one hour, another certain man affirmed, saying: Of a truth, this man was also with him; for he is also a Galilean. And Peter said: Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, as he was yet speaking, the cock crew. And the Lord turning looked on Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, as he had said: Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And Peter going out, wept bitterly. And the men that held him, mocked him, and struck him. And they blindfolded him, and smote his face. And they asked him, saying: Prophesy, who is it that struck thee? And blaspheming, many other things they said against him. And as soon as it was day, the ancients of the people, and the chief priests and scribes, cane together; and they brought him into their council, saying: If thou be the Christ, tell us. And he saith to them: If I shall tell you, you will not believe me. And if I shall also ask you, you will not answer me, nor let me go. But hereafter the Son of man shall be sitting on the right hand of the power of God. Then said they all: Art thou then the Son of God? Who said: You say that I am. And they said: What need we any further testimony? for we ourselves have heard it from his own mouth. AND the whole multitude of them rising up, led him to Pilate. And they began to accuse him, saying: We have found this man perverting our nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, and saying that he is Christ the king. And Pilate asked him, saying: Art thou the king of the Jews? But he answering, said: Thou sayest it. And Pilate said to the chief priests and to the multitudes: I find no cause in this man. But they were more earnest, saying: He stirreth up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee to this place. But Pilate hearing Galilee, asked if the man were of Galilee? And when he understood that he was of Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him away to Herod, who was also himself at Jerusalem, in those days. And Herod, seeing Jesus, was very glad; for he was desirous of a long time to see him, because he had heard many things of him; and he hoped to see some sign wrought by him. And he questioned him in many words. But he answered him nothing. And the chief priests and the scribes stood by, earnestly accusing him. And Herod with his army set him at nought, and mocked him, putting on him a white garment, and sent him back to Pilate. And Herod and Pilate were made friends, that same day; for before they were enemies one to another. And Pilate, calling together the chief priests, and the magistrates, and the people, Said to them: You have presented unto me this man, as one that perverteth the people; and behold I, having examined him before you, find no cause in this man, in those things wherein you accuse him. No, nor Herod neither. For I sent you to him, and behold, nothing worthy of death is done to him. I will chastise him therefore, and release him. Now of necessity he was to release unto them one upon the feast day. But the whole multitude together cried out, saying: Away with this man, and release unto us Barabbas: Who, for a certain sedition made in the city, and for a murder, was cast into prison. And Pilate again spoke to them, desiring to release Jesus. But they cried again, saying: Crucify him, crucify him. And he said to them the third time: Why, what evil hath this man done? I find no cause of death in him. I will chastise him therefore, and let him go. But they were instant with loud voices, requiring that he might be crucified; and their voices prevailed. And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required. And he released unto them him who for murder and sedition, had been cast into prison, whom they had desired; but Jesus he delivered up to their will. And as they led him away, they laid hold of one Simon of Cyrene, coming from the country; and they laid the cross on him to carry after Jesus. And there followed him a great multitude of people, and of women, who bewailed and lamented him. But Jesus turning to them, said: Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not over me; but weep for yourselves, and for your children. For behold, the days shall come, wherein they will say: Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that have not borne, and the paps that have not given suck. Then shall they begin to say to the mountains: Fall upon us; and to the hills: Cover us. For if in the green wood they do these things, what shall be done in the dry? And there were also two other malefactors led with him to be put to death. And when they were come to the place which is called Calvary, they crucified him there; and the robbers, one on the right hand, and the other on the left. And Jesus said: Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do. But they, dividing his garments, cast lots. And the people stood beholding, and the rulers with them derided him, saying: He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the elect of God. And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering him vinegar, And saying: If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself. And there was also a superscription written over him in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew: THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS. And one of those robbers who were hanged, blasphemed him, saying: If thou be Christ, save thyself and us. But the other answering, rebuked him, saying: Neither dost thou fear God, seeing thou art condemned under the same condemnation? And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward of our deeds; but this man hath done no evil. And he said to Jesus: Lord, remember me when thou shalt come into thy kingdom. And Jesus said to him: Amen I say to thee, this day thou shalt be with me in paradise. And it was almost the sixth hour; and there was darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour. And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst. And Jesus crying out with a loud voice, said: Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit. And saying this, he gave up the ghost. Here kneel, and pause a few moments. Now the centurion, seeing what was done, glorified God, saying: Indeed this was a just man. And all the multitude of them that were come together to that sight, and saw the things that were done, returned striking their breasts. And all his acquaintance, and the women that had followed him from Galilee, stood afar off, beholding these things. And behold there was a man named Joseph, who was a counsellor, a good and just man, The same had not consented to their counsel and doings; of Arimathea, a city of Judea; who also himself looked for the kingdom of God. This man went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. And taking him down, he wrapped him in fine linen, and laid him in a sepulchre that was hewed in stone, wherein never yet any man had been laid.

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.

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. In whose hands are iniquities, their right hand is filled with gifts. But I have walked in my innocence: redeem me, and have mercy on me. My foot hath stood in the direct way, in the churches I will bless Thee, O Lord.

The priest answers in a low voice: P. Amen. Then, with outstretched hands, he recites the Secret Prayers, not beginning with Oremus. The Secret Prayers vary with the Mass, and are found in the Mass of the Day. These being finished, the priest says or sings: P. World without end. S. Amen.

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 these we entreat Thee that Thou mayest bid our voices also to be admitted while we say with lowly praise: Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of Sabaoth! Heaven and earth are full of Thy glory!

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.

BULGAKOV Y EL APOCALIPSIS. LA GRAN CONJURA PARA ACABAR CON LOS ROMANOV

 

¿Cómo será el fin de los tiempos? ¿Quién será el anticristo… una persona real o un sistema político? Ukrania la tierra feraz donde los arados se hundían en un suelo de labranza de las tierras negras hasta tres metros de profundidad, el granero de Europa, y todo ese légamo de civilización que arrastra sus dos grandes ríos el Don y el Dnieper hacia Kiev, la santa, la madre de las ciudades rusas con la gran cruz de san Vladimiro presidiendo la bocana va a acabar en la catástrofe de Chernobil que parece anunciar y presentir en su gran novela la guardia blanca Mixail Bulgakov casi un heraldo del fin de los tiempos. Y en su planteamiento coincide con lo que dice Bertrand Russel quien en 1918 visita la URSS y asegura que la revolución bolchevique fue obra de judíos rusos americanizados y los hechos de esta novela se desarrollan aquel invierno trágico de 1918 y en Kiev entre grandes celliscas de nieve.

 La tierra feraz se transforma en feroz erial. Se secan las fuentes, resucitan los gigantes, cunde el desamor, las costumbres se corrompen. Arden los bosques... toda Rusia era un incendio aquel verano de 1918, el año que se desarrolla esta novela.

 A lo largo de sus capítulos se escucha el tintineo de las espuelas de los cosacos que se cuadran ante su atamán y el repique-canto-metálico de los teléfonos móviles, la irrupción de los bustos parlantes que se entregan a una vacarme o borrachera de letanías insufribles para contar la actualidad con una sonrisa  mefistofélica en sus rostros, perfectamente atildados, la cara lavada pero el alma negra insensible al dolor ajeno, grandes representantes del sistema, como anunciando a todos: habéis de pasar por el aro, besareis mi látigo y todo eso sin descomponer el gesto de hombres-anuncio y la mirada azul de las nuevas sibilas de la tele.

Las sibilas vuelven y es un mundo sibilino  de grandes avances tecnológicos y de una gran pobreza espiritual dominado por las técnicas de la propaganda, el que intuyeron los rusos blancos, lo vivieron o contaron aquellos días de octubre.

Han ganado los americanos subraya un capitán artillero que aguarda el ataque de los bolcheviques al edificio del Liceo donde los partidarios de la autocracia y la ortodoxia se han hecho fuertes. Sin embargo el coronel que manda la posición a la vista de la inferioridad numérica ordena izar bandera blanca.

 Suenan los gritos de traición… traición pero nadie se atreve a desobedecer los hechos consumados. No se puede hacer nada. Rompan filas.

 Se deshace la guardia blanca y los cadetes, el oficial de dragones, los húsares y los alanos se vuelven a casa con sus botas bruñidas, las espuelas de plata, el sable reluciente y el dolman impecable terciado sobre las charreteras. Todo eso ya no sirve para nada. Después de rendirse los coraceros piden vodka para mitigar los efectos del clima bajo cero y se entregan a una orgía pero no hay aguardiente en el mundo que pueda aplacar las heridas del alma congelada.

 Es la debacle. Es el fin de una era. Sin caballería las guerras ni son guerras ni son nada. Se acabó el honor, la nobleza, las maneras exquisitas y ese concepto de castas que permitió concebir la existencia desde un punto de vista estético. Se acabó la literatura. Lo que viene es la lucha de clases, el feminismo, la vulgaridad, el encefalograma plano. Los judíos se apoderan de los sistemas proclamando democracias que les enriquece y a los cristianos empobrece. El globalismos, las oeneges, la dictadura.

Llegan los sindiós que traen sus propios profetas, sus escritores, sus panegiristas y publicistas. El materialismo dialéctico de Marx que permitió por lo menos la educación de las clases más desfavorecidas abocará al materialismo de los globalizadotes donde la persona humana no es más que un número, una unidad de consumo bajo el control de la red de redes.

 En definitiva Bulgakov nos vaticina un mundo feliz al igual que los grandes utopistas ingleses pero insufrible. Un judío que es pillado con las manos en el cajón durante un progrom le ruega a un húsar que ha desenvainado la espada todo el dinero te lo daré todo esto será tuyo y le señala la caja de caudales si me perdonas la vida. Gracia denegada. El ulano hunde su sable en el cuello del rabino y le corta la cabeza. El rabí muere mártir de la causa invocando a Yahvé.

 Chema Israel pero tenemos que ajustar cuentas mientras los caballos del Apocalipsis galopan por las riberas del Dnieper. Se terminó aquel mundo que creíamos mejor. Rompan filas, sálvese el que pueda. El santo y seña del final de los tiempos es que la caridad se enfría, las palabras ya no significan lo que significaban antes.

No hay canon ni medida. Se hunde la barca de Piotr mientras los bateleros del Volga reman y reman saludando con el sombrero, cocidos de vodka, al que ha de venir. Este es Petliura. Quien es Potliura? Según Bulkgakov el que ha de venir(Bandera el nazi a las ordenes de la Z de Sión) el interpuesto al que dicen que han visto alojarse en la habitación numero 666 en un hotel de la calle Lovitskaya pero esta presencia es fantasmal o by hearsay.

 Se narra mediante el oído no mediante la vista y por esto mismo la novela tiene un aire musical más que fotográfica. La trama no es lineal y el estilo participa de la velocidad y contundencia de la vida actual.

La “guardia blanca” es narración de muchas preguntas ninguna respuesta en esta novela de guerra antimilitarista donde se ridiculiza a los prusianos y a los estados mayores. No hay combates ni escenas de guerra. Sólo se escucha el estampido, lejano, de los cañones y se anuncia que el nuevo orden entrará con sangre y en medio de grandes estertores. Verdún significará una nueva catástrofe para Rusia la dejarán sola sus aliados a merced de la gran conjura de los impíos. Pero Rusia demolida y vilipendiada cargando con la cruz de Cristo sobre los lomos resucitará al tercer día. Ah ora se comprende por qué Bulgakov era el escritor favorito de Stalin.

 El asesinato del zar será el epílogo a una historia trágica de furores. El hombre de las patillas largas- Trotzky- se atusa los bigotes, tiene una gran cabeza y proclama la revolución permanente. Nuevos dolores y convulsiones para el pueblo ruso. Los cielos refulgen con la estrella roja de los comisarios y el ángel de la muerte escribe sobre las nubes negras el número de la bestia: 666.

En medio del caos se abren camino muchas traiciones, ejecuciones sumarias, deportaciones en masa. Los alemanes dejarán a los blancos de Ucrania a merced de los bolcheviques. Bulgakov les llama felones.

Cunde el desamor y el relato de las vencidas mujeres violadas campesinos arrojados de su tierra y por todos los dominios del zar se esparce la enfermedad rosa la sífilis como un flagelo bíblico. El autor era médico especialista en venéreas y el relato que hace de la enfermedad es puntual. Aparecen unas pústulas en las ingles (chancro) manchas de color rosa en la epidermis, después subseguirá la ceguera y la artrosis si no se ataja la epidemia con inyecciones de permanganato. Fue la enfermedad que sacude a Europa en los años 20.

Dios no escucha, está lejos muy a gusto en su empíreo de la humanidad que sufre. Está rodeado de una escolta de ángeles en el paraíso. En uno de los pasajes, sin embargo, aparece un pope que predica contra la desesperación. Es la desesperanza el mayor de los pecados a ojos del Altísimo puesto que viene impregnado de la soberbia satánica y sólo puede desesperarse los condenados del infierno. No conocéis sus misteriosos designios, se lamenta el padre Vladimiro puesto que el corazón de Dios es fuente de toda misericordia. El dolor y el sufrimiento colectivo tienen un carácter expiatorio y abrirán las puertas de la purificación. Este sermón que recuerda el discurso del padre Zosimo de Dostoyevsky pone una nota de claridad esperanzada en medio de la niebla de pesimismo de todo el relato. 1918 fue un tiempo de tinieblas y su mes de diciembre fue el más perverso en fríos y en crueldades humanas durante siglos.

Desde luego, se acabó la literatura, todo concepto de honor y de estética es pisoteado para dejar paso al lucro. Mucha gente irá a la cárcel o será marginado por pensar por su cuenta nos profetiza Bulgakov. Ya se escuchan las pisadas del ángel del Apocalipsis. La idea central del libro es que hubo una conspiración universal para acabar con la ortodoxia proyectada desde el odio a la cruz misericordiosa, una conjura que es tramada por los que son siempre los mismos los apóstoles del odio y la revancha pero al final vencerá el amor. El autor del Diablo y Margarita era uno de los autores preferidos de Stalín hasta que perdió el favor. Bulgakov muere en Moscú en un bombardeo de los alemanes a los que tanto despreciara en 1942.
