WDTPRS: Tuesday 1st Week of Advent – SUPER OBLATA (2002MR)

Placare, Domine, quaesumus, nostrae precibus humilitatis et hostiis, et, ubi nulla suppetunt suffragia meritorum, tuae nobis indulgentiae succurre praesidiis.
Literal rendering

Be Thou appeased, O Lord, we beseech Thee, by the prayers of our humility and by our sacrificial offerings, and, where no favorable points of merits suffice for us, succor us by the helps of Thy indulgence. LAME-DUCK ICEL: Lord, we are nothing without you. As you sustain us with your mercy, receive our prayers and offerings.

We continue to look at our prayers for Mass during Advent. This prayer is identical to the Secret of the older, 1962 editio typica of the Missale Romanum. I have already written a full article on this prayer for The Wanderer. LITERAL TRANSLATION: Be Thou appeased, O Lord, we beseech Thee, by the prayers of our humility and by our…

WDTPRS: Tuesday 1st Week of Advent – COLLECT (2002MR)

Propitiare, Domine Deus, supplicationibus nostris, et tribulantibus, quaesumus, tuae concede pietatis auxilium, ut, de Filii tui venientis praesentia consolati, nullis iam polluamur contagiis vetustatis.
Literal rendering

Render our supplications favorable, O Lord God, and, we entreat You, grant to our tribulations the aid of Your mercy, so that, having been consoled from the presence of Your Son who is coming, we may indeed be fouled by no contaminations of the sinful state of the old man.

We continue with our glance at the Collects of the days of Advent. COLLECT: Propitiare, Domine Deus, supplicationibus nostris, et tribulantibus, quaesumus, tuae concede pietatis auxilium, ut, de Filii tui venientis praesentia consolati, nullis iam polluamur contagiis vetustatis. This prayer has ancient origins in Rotulus 3 which is published in the edition of the Veronese Sacramentary by Mohlberg.

WDTPRS: 1st Sunday of Advent: Prayer over the Offerings

Placare, Domine, quaesumus, nostrae precibus humilitatis et hostiis, et, ubi nulla suppetunt suffragia meritorum tuae nobis indulgentiae succurre praesidiis.
Literal rendering

Be appeased, O Lord, we beseech You, by the prayers of our humility and by our sacrificial offerings, and, where no favorable points of merits suffice for us, succor us by the helps of Your indulgence.

The Lord’s Coming is a fearful thing to ponder. The First Coming of the Lord, prophesied by Jeremiah in Sunday’s 1st Reading, and His Sacrifice renewed daily on our altars, mean that His Second Coming, described by the Lord in the Gospel reading from Luke 21, and our impending judgment need not raze the thoughtful soul in abject terror. During…

WDTPRS – 1st Sunday of Advent – SUPER OBLATA (2002MR): thresholds

Suscipe, quaesumus, Domine, munera quae de tuis offerimus collata beneficiis, et, quod nostrae devotioni concedis effici temporali, tuae nobis fiat praemium redemptionis aeternae.
Literal rendering

Take up, O Lord, we beg You, the gifts we are offering which were gathered together from Your favors, and let that which You grant to be accomplished by our temporal dedication become for us the reward of Your eternal redemption.

Today’s Ordinary Form Super Oblata prayer, the prayer over the offerings during the Offertory, is found in the ancient Veronese Sacramentary amidst prayers for the month of July. Note the scrambling of word order for rhetorical effect. Words that go together are separated and concepts are embedded between them. This elegant rhetorical interlocking delights both ear and mind. It also…

1st Sunday of Advent: COLLECT (2)

Da, quaesumus, omnipotens Deus, hanc tuis fidelibus voluntatem, ut, Christo tuo venienti iustis operibus occurrentes, eius dextrae sociati, regnum mereantur possidere caeleste. Per Dominum….
Literal rendering

Almighty God, we beseech You, grant to Your faithful this disposition of will, that those rushing with just works to meet Your Christ, now coming, united at His right hand may merit to possess the heavenly kingdom. This is the first prayer of the liturgical year. We are readying ourselves for Christ who comes! This Sunday is back to back with the Solemnity of Christ the King, honoring the future Second Coming at the end of the world, while it prepares us for celebrating His First Coming at Christmas. Advent is all about how the Lord comes… in every way. He comes in actual graces. He comes when the priest says, “Hoc est enim corpus meum….This is my Body.” He…

Prosint nobis, quaesumus, Domine, frequentata mysteria, quibus nos, inter praetereuntia ambulantes, iam nunc instituis amare caelestia et inhaerere mansuris.

We beg You, O Lord, may they be profitable for us, these oft celebrated sacramental mysteries, by which You established that we, walking amidst the things that are passing away, would now in this very moment love heavenly things and cleave to the things that will endure.
