Doctor
ætérnus cóleris piúsque,
Christe,
qui leges áperis salútis,
verba
qui vitæ mérito putáris
solus habére.
Teque
clamámus, bone Pastor orbis,
cælitus
semper solidásse Sponsæ
verba,
constánter quibus illa mundo
lumen adésset.
Ipse
quin præbes fámulos corúscos,
áureas
stellas velut emicántes,
certa
qui nobis réserent beátæ
dógmata vitæ.
Unde
te laudes récinant, Magíster,
Spíritus
fundis bona qui stupénda
ore
doctórum, tua quo poténter
lux patet alma.
Quique
nunc iustus celebrátur, instet
ut
tuam plebem per amœna lucis
des
gradi, donec tibi dicat hymnos
lúmine pleno. Amen.
O Christ, eternal and holy teacher, you are
worshipped, who reveal the laws of salvation, you alone are understood to have
the words which lead to a worthy life. We cry to you, Good Shepherd of the
world, always to confirm the heavenly words of your Bride the Church, through which
she is ever the light to the world. You
make your servants shine like brilliant golden stars, which reveal to us the
doctrine of a blessed life. For this, O Master, they sing your praises, you who
pour upon us the wonderful goods of the Spirit through the mouth of teachers by
whom gracious light is powerfully revealed.
Now this just teacher is celebrated, who urges that you grant your
people to advance by the pleasure of light until they, filled with light, may sing
hymns to you. Amen.
Office of Readings and II Vespers: Novus
Ætérne
sol, qui lúmine
creáta
comples ómnia,
supréma
lux et méntium,
te
corda nostra cóncinunt.
Tuo
fovénte Spíritu,
hic
viva luminária
fulsére,
per quæ sæculis
patent
salútis sémitæ.
Quod
verba missa cælitus,
natíva
mens quod éxhibet,
per
hos minístros grátiæ
novo
nitóre cláruit.
Horum
corónæ párticeps,
doctrína
honéstus lúcida,
hic
vir beátus splénduit
quem
prædicámus láudibus.
Ipso
favénte, quæsumus,
nobis,
Deus, percúrrere
da
veritátis trámitem,
possímus
ut te cónsequi.
Eternal Sun, you fill all things with light, the supreme light of minds, our hearts sing to you. By your loving Spirit, may there flow out strong lights through which the paths of salvation may be opened to the world. What words sent from heaven; what natural reason demonstrates though these ministers of grace, grows bright with new light. Participant in in their reward, sharing in brilliant teaching, this blessed man shone forth, whose praises we proclaim. With his favor, we ask, O God, that we may run: give to us the path of truth that we may come to you.
