Introitus
Ps 33:10-11
Timéte Dóminum, omnes sancti ejus, quóniam nihil deest timéntibus eum: dívites eguérunt et esuriérunt: inquiréntes autem Dóminum non defícient omni bono.
Ps 33:2
Benedícam Dóminum in omni témpore: semper laus ejus in ore meo.
℣. Glória Patri, …

Collect

℣. The Lord be with you.
℟. And with thy spirit.
Let us pray.
Almighty and merciful God, Who made St. John Mary glorious by priestly zeal and untiring fervor in prayer and penance, grant, we beseech You, that by his example and intercession, we may have strength to win for Christ the souls of our brethren and, with them, attain everlasting glory.
Through Jesus Christ, thy Son our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end.
℟. Amen.
℣. The Lord be with you.
℟. And with thy spirit.

Let us pray.
O God, Who gladden us by the annual festival of Your Martyrs Cyriacus, Largus, and Smaragdus, grant that we may be inspired by the example of those in whose merits we rejoice.
Through Jesus Christ, thy Son our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end.
℟. Amen.

From the holy Gospel according to Mark
Mark 16:15-18
At that time, Jesus said unto His disciples: Go ye into all the world, and preach the Gospel to every creature. And so on.

Homily by Pope St. Gregory (the Great)
29th on the Gospels
By the words “every creature” we may understand every tribe of the Gentiles. Of aforetime it had been said, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, Matth. x. 5, but now, Preach the Gospel to every creature, that, since the Jews had proudly rejected the preaching of the Apostles, that might become our gain which was the seal of their condemnation. But when the Eternal Truth sendeth forth His disciples to preach, what doth He but scatter seed over the field of the world He scattered abroad a few grains for seed, that He may afterward reap an abundant harvest in our faith.

Post Communion
P. The Lord be with you.
S. And with thy spirit.
Let us pray.
Refreshed with heavenly food and drink, we humbly pray You, our God, that we also may be helped by his prayers in memory of whom we have partaken of these gifts.
Through Jesus Christ, thy Son our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end.
℟. Amen.

P. The Lord be with you.
S. And with thy spirit.
Let us pray.
With our strength renewed from having shared in Your sacred gift, we beseech You, O Lord our God, that by the intercession of blessed Cyriacus, Largus, and Smaragdus, Your Martyrs, we may feel the benefit of the worship we are offering.
Through Jesus Christ, thy Son our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end.
℟. Amen.
