℣. 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.

── Hymn ──

O strength and stay upholding all creation,
Who ever dost thyself unmoved abide,
Yet day by day the light in due gradation
From hour to hour through all its changes guide:
Grant to life’s day a calm unclouded ending,
An eve untouched by shadows of decay,
The brightness of a holy death-bed blending
With dawning glories of th’ eternal day.
Hear us, O Father, gracious and forgiving,
And thou, O Christ, the co-eternal Word,
Who, with the Holy Ghost, by all things living
Now and to endless ages art adored.
Amen.

── Psalms ──

Ant. O God, be thou not silent * for the mouth of the wicked man is opened against me.

Psalm 108:2-13

God, be not thou silent in my praise: * for the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful man is opened against me.
They have spoken against me with deceitful tongues; and they have compassed me about with words of hatred; * and have fought against me without cause.
Instead of making me a return of love, they detracted me: * but I gave myself to prayer.
And they repaid me evil for good: * and hatred for my love.
Set thou the sinner over him: * and may the devil stand at his right hand.
When he is judged, may he go out condemned; * and may his prayer be turned to sin.
May his days be few: * and his bishopric let another take.
May his children be fatherless, * and his wife a widow.
Let his children be carried about vagabonds, and beg; * and let them be cast out of their dwellings.
May the usurer search all his substance: * and let strangers plunder his labours.
May there be none to help him: * nor none to pity his fatherless offspring.
May his posterity be cut off; * in one generation may his name be blotted out.

Psalm 108:14-21

May the iniquity of his fathers be remembered in the sight of the Lord: * and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.
May they be before the Lord continually, and let the memory of them perish from the earth: * because he remembered not to shew mercy,
But persecuted the poor man and the beggar; * and the broken in heart, to put him to death.
And he loved cursing, and it shall come unto him: * and he would not have blessing, and it shall be far from him.
And he put on cursing, like a garment: * and it went in like water into his entrails, and like oil in his bones.
May it be unto him like a garment which covereth him; * and like a girdle with which he is girded continually.
This is the work of them who detract me before the Lord; * and who speak evils against my soul.
