The Little Office Of The Immaculate Conception

AT MATINS


Come, my lips, and wide proclaim,
The Blessed Virgin's spotless fame.

V. O Lady, make speed to befriend me.
R. From the hands of the enemy mightily defend me.
V. Glory Be To The Father... Alleluia.

From Septuagesima Sunday to Easter, instead of Alleluia, say:

Praise be to Thee, O Lord, King of everlasting glory.
 

Hymn


Hail, Queen of the Heavens
Hail, Mistress of earth!
Hail, Virgin most pure,
Of immaculate birth!

Clear star of the morning,
In beauty enshrin'd!
O Lady, make speed
To the help of mankind.

Thee God in the depth
Of eternity chose:
And form'd thee all fair
As His glorious Spouse.

And call'd thee His Word's
Own Mother to be,
By whom he created
The earth, sky and sea.

Amen.

V. God elected her, and pre-elected her.
R. He made her to dwell in His tabernacle.
V. O Lady, hear my prayer,
R. And let my cry come unto thee.

Let Us Pray.

Holy Mary, Queen of heaven,
Mother of our Lord Jesus Christ,
and Mistress of the world,
who forsakest no one,
and despiseth no one;
look upon me, O Lady,
with an eye of pity,
and entreat for me,
of thy beloved Son,
the forgiveness of all my sins;
that as I now celebrate with devout affection
thy holy and Immaculate Conception,
so, hereafter,
I may receive the prize of eternal blessedness,
by the grace of Him Whom thou,
in virginity didst bring forth,
Jesus Christ our Lord:
Who, with the Father and the Holy Ghost,
liveth and reigneth,
in perfect Trinity, God,
world without end.

Amen.

V. O Lady, hear my prayer.
R. And let my cry come unto thee.

Hail, Virgin most wise!
Hail, Deity's shrine!
With seven fair pillars,
And table divine!

Preserv'd from the guilt
Which hath come on us all
Exempt, in the womb,
From the taint of the fall

Be thou of the faithful
The refuge and stay.

Hail, Solomon's throne!
Pure ark of the law!
Fair rainbow! and bush
Which the Patriarch saw!

Hail, Gedeon's fleece!
Hail, blossoming rod!
Samson's sweet honey comb

Should preserve from a touch
Of original sin:

Defect to be stained.

For Himself had ordain'd.

With love and with light!
The dragon by thee
Was shorn of his might!

O Woman most valiant!
O Judith thrice blest!

Upon Rachel's knee:
So the world's great Redeemer
Was cherish'd by thee:

Hail, dial of Achaz!
On thee the true Sun
Told backward the course
Which from old he had run!

And that man might be raised
Submitting to shame,
A little more low
Than the Angels became

Thou wrapt in the blaze
Of his infinite light,
Dost shine as the morn
On the confines of night;

As the moon on the lost
Through obscurity dawns
The serpent's destroyer!
A lily 'mid thorns!

Amen.

In glory untold.
Standing next to the King
In a vesture of gold!

O Mother of mercy!
O star of the Wave!
O hope of the guilty!
O light of the grave!

Through thee may we come
To the haven of rest,
And see heaven's King
In the courts of the blest.
