℣. O Lord, hear my prayer.
℟. And let my cry come unto thee.
Let us pray.
O God, Who wast pleased that the blessed Mary always a Virgin, being herself the dwelling-place of the Holy Ghost, should, as on this day, be presented in thine earthly Temple, grant, we beseech thee, that by her prayers we may worthily be presented in the heavenly Temple of thy glory.
Through Jesus Christ, thy Son our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the same Holy Ghost, God, world without end.
℟. Amen.
