O sempitérnæ cúriæ
regis supremi príncipes,
quos ipse Iesus édocens
donávit orbi Apóstolos,
Supérna vos Ierúsalem,
lucérna cuius Agnus est,
gemmas micántes póssidet,
præclára vos fundámina.
Vos et celébrat grátulans
nunc sponsa Christi
Ecclésia,
quam sermo vester éxciit,
quam consecrástis
sánguine.
Cadéntibus cum sæculis
iudex Redémptor séderit,
qua laude vos sedébitis,
senátus altæ glóriæ!
Nos ergo vestra iúgiter
prex adiuvándo róboret,
fudístis ut quæ sémina
in grana cæli flóreant.
Ætérna Christo glória,
qui fecit esse núntios
vos Patris, atque
Spíritus
replévit almo númine.
Amen.
O
highest Princes of the supreme King of the eternal court, the Apostles whom
Jesus taught and gave to the world. The
spiritual Jerusalem, whose lamp is the Lamb, possessed you, sparkling jewels,
as her bright foundation. Now the
Church, the bride of Christ, which your word inspires and your blood
consecrated, hails and celebrates you. When the world ends and the Judge, the
Redeemer, sits enthroned, in whose praise you will also sit, O assembly of
glory. Wherefore now may your prayer ever aid and strengthen us that the seeds
which you have planted may flourish in the grain of heaven. Eternal glory to
Christ, you made you messengers of the Father and the Spirit who filled you
with divine love. Amen.

O Andrew, who once caught fish, now you are a
fisher of men: with your nets rescue us from the raging waves of the world. Brother of Peter in the flesh and you did not
suffer a different kind of death from him: Born of one flesh the cross made you
brothers in heaven. O venerable common seed!
O equal crown of glory! Holy Fathers of the Church. Equally sons of the Cross. You came to Jesus
before your brother, strong proof of your character, also be for us in our
misery a guide on the road blessed. Extraordinary companion to your brother,
grant to the churches under the shepherd Peter that they be moved by immense
love. O Man greatly loved by Christ, make us to run in love that joyfully
reaching our fatherland we may sing God’s glory. Amen.

Ut,

Deo

May heaven exult with praises, earth resound with
joy: holy solemnities sing the glory of the Apostles. Who with a word close the
doors to heaven and loosen its bars: we beseech you at your command absolve us from
all our sins. By your decree ill health and the sickness are subdued: heal the
sick and restore us to strength of life. That when Christ the Judge will come
at the end of time, he will grant us to share in everlasting joys. Praises of
glory be to God, who granted that through you we be instructed in the teaching
of the Gospel and attain heaven. Amen
