Commemoration Dominica IV Post Pascha
O God, of Whom it cometh that the minds of thy faithful people be all of one will, grant unto the same thy people that they may love the thing which Thou commandest, and desire that which Thou dost promise, that so, amid the sundry and manifold changes of the world, our hearts may surely there be fixed, where true joys are to be found.
Commemoration Sts. Alexander and Companions, Martyrs
Grant, we beseech You, almighty God, that we who commemorate the anniversary of the death of Your saints, Alexander, Eventius, Theodulus and Juvenal, may by their intercession be freed from all the evils that threaten us.
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.
From the Holy Gospel according to John
John 3:1-15
At that time There was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto Him Rabbi, we know that Thou art a Teacher come from God. And so on.
Homily by St. Augustine, Bishop of Hippo
11th Tract on John.
Nicodemus was one of them which believed in the Name of Jesus, when they saw the signs and wonders which He did. So hath John given us to understand a few words before our text: “Now when He was in Jerusalem at the Passover, in the feast-day, many believed in His Name” And wherefore did they believe in His Name John telleth us immediately: “When they saw the miracles which He did.” And now, what saith he touching Nicodemus? “There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto Him Rabbi, we know that Thou art a Teacher come from God.” Nicodemus therefore believed in His Name. And why did he believe He saith “For no man can do these miracles that Thou doest, except God be with him.”
Post Communion
P. The Lord be with you.
S. And with thy spirit.
Let us pray.
Repléti alimónia coelésti et spiritáli poculo recreáti, quaesumus, omnípotens Deus: ut ab hoste malígno deféndas, quos per lignum sanctæ Crucis Fílii tui, arma justítiæ pro salúte mundi, triumpháre jussísti.
Through the same 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.
Let us pray.

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