Sermon of St. Bernard, Abbot
In Dom. infra Oct. Assumpt. B. Mariae Virg.
What starry splendour flasheth in the birth of Mary? Manifestly, she was a daughter of Kings, a child of the seed of Abraham, a Princess of the lineage of David. But whereas this is but too little, add that she is known to be granted by God to that race, on account of her singular privilege of holiness which the same possesseth, to have been promised from heaven long before her fathers were born, to have been foreshadowed by mysterious wonders, and foretold by the utterances of Prophets. She was the rootless rod of Aaron the Priest, which not yet budded, and brought forth buds, and blooms, and blossoms, and yielded almonds. Num. xvii.8. She was the fleece of Gideon, which was put on the floor, and whereon only there was a dew when it was dry upon all the earth beside. Judges vi. 37,38. She was the gate which Ezechiel saw, which looked toward the East and was shut, and the Lord said unto him: “This gate shall be shut, it shall not be opened, and no man shall enter on by it.

Post Communion

S. And with thy spirit.
Let us pray.
O Lord, in celebration of this yearly feast, we have partaken of the sacrament: grant, we beseech You, that it may give us help for life on earth and for life everlasting.
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.


Let us pray.
To the Holy Spirit
May the infusion of the Holy Spirit cleanse our hearts, O Lord, and may He render them fruitful by sprinkling His dew deep within us.

for the Church
We beseech thee, O Lord, our God, that thou permit not those, to whom thou hast given a participation of divine things to be subjected to human dangers.
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.
