Commemoratio S. Silverii Papæ et Martyris

Ant. Qui odit ánimam suam in hoc mundo, in vitam ætérnam custódit eam.

V. Iustus ut palma florébit.
R. Sicut cedrus Líbani multiplicábitur.

Orémus.

Gregem tuum, Pastor ætérne, placátus inténde: et per beátum Silvérium Mártyrem tuum atque Summum Pontíficem perpétua protectióne custódi; quem totíus Ecclésiæ præstitísti esse pastórem.

Per Dóminum nostrum Iesum Christum, Fílium tuum: qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitáte Spíritus Sancti, Deus, per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum.
R. Amen.

Commemoration: S. Silvester,  Pope and Martyr

Ant. He that hateth his life in this world, shall keep it unto life eternal.

V. The righteous shall flourish like the palm-tree.
R. He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

Let us pray.

Look forgivingly on thy flock, Eternal Shepherd, and keep it in thy constant protection, by the intercession of blessed Silverius thy Martyr and Sovereign Pontiff, whom thou didst constitute Shepherd of the whole Church.

Through Jesus Christ, thy Son our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end.
R. Amen.
