LOS BÁRBAROS ESTÁN AQUÍ DE NUEVO

VIENEN, VIENEN, PRESIDENTE. NO HAY QUIEN LOS pare. Están en el parlamento, detentan el poder y el pucherazo oyes esta mañana en la RNE hablaban DEL JALAI Y DEL JALA COMIDA DE MOROS OSHER NO BEBEN VINO PERO CUANDO SE EMBORRACHAN SON PELIGROSOS Y ME DIO UN VUELCO EL CORAZÓN. LLEGAN DE la Mano de Herr Churches y su chuni ese coño grande que irrumpen desde las pocilgas pijoflautas, las abanderadas del alegre chusmino las de la manifestación de la peste. Son mercenarios a sueldo de extranjeros, pero están aquí y el fulano conductor de la Inter un tal Rafa no paraba de cascar parlería inútil en la mañana. Estos dulanos las soflamas y razones se los pasan por los mismísimos, harán falta argumentos más contundente, sólo temen a la cara del pretor. Hace falta un cortafuegos. Flechas y balas. Plomo fuego a discreción que se detengan no traspasen la empalizada. Los barbaros han asentado sus reales en el jardín de atrás, escucho el relincho de sus yeguas, los potros salvajes saltaron la valla. Volvemos a la alta edad media. Será arrasada nuestra cultura. Los pueblos gemirán bajo el yugo de los nuevos hunos. El caballo de Atila galopa por la Carrera de San Gerónimo donde lloran los leones guardando luto por don rodrigo y la pérdida de España.
 El caballo de Atila pisa ufano los adoquines de la Vía Apia. En las calles de Roma no volverá a crecer la hierba.
Este diacono despide al mes de mayo con tristeza después de haber abierto los Anales y las crónicas que cuentan la invasión de los bárbaros del Norte. Llega Ginserico arrebatado por la ira, sus incendiarias ansias de destrucción, aunque Churches el bravucón no tiene un par de ostias se lo comerán los caimanes de la revolución y cuando empiece la montería a su chati cualquier decurión borracho se la llevará al monte y la hará cositas.
A Claudio en silla ruedas el de la cabeza gorda y el cuerpo chico que parece al tío ese que iba en el tren y se puso a cagar por la ventanilla en un cuento de jaimito lo tirarán al Tiber.

Madame Bold será pasto de los caimanes en cuanto a Perico lo crucificarán en el Aventino sin cruciferagio. Fue un caudillo imaginativo extraordinariamente echado para adelante que asaltó la ciudadela con un ejército de vociferantes pijoflatuas cojeaba a causa de una caída del caballo como Ginserico que lo dejó para el arrastre. Era impotente, pero presumía de amores tardíos y de bellaquerías detrás de la puerta, se dejó crece el pelo como Sansón pero su coleta resultó inane y sin fuerza. Los nuevos barbaros del norte no beben cerveza ni vino, pero se pasan por la piedra a cuantas mujeres encuentran de camino. Cerraron las discotecas, los antiteatros y los estadios. Echaron el cierre a los burdeles e iban por la calle respirando con dificultad detrás de las preceptivas mascarillas. Castigo divino. Otro de tantos. Asaltaron las mejores provincias del imperio: la Numidia, Tingitania, Cesarea, el África proconsular, Cartago, Hipona donde lloraba un obispo sus versos retóricos yambicos y pareados. No hay remedio. Delenda est Roma. Advenía otra civilización. Cortaban la cabeza a los curas y a los rabinos, cerraron los templos a cal y canto, clausuraron los lupanares y los estadios y dejaron que los nuevos comisarios les lavasen la cara y el cerebro a los sentados y displicentes con muchas horas de televisión. Esparcieron el virus del miedo y el morbo chino. Las plañideras de la tele entonaban sus nenias para despedir a las ovejas camino del matadero. Toda la Hispania se vistió de luto. El gran país se había convertido en un gran funeral. El caballo de Atila había dejado su marca en la huella allá no volvería a crecer la hierba.

OJO QUE LA GUARDIA CIVIL NO ES LA SECURITATE

El día de naviodad del año 1989 eran fusilados el conducator Ceaucescu y su esposa en un cuartel de la Securitate. 
A posteriori se ha revelado que los agentes del magnicidio ern el cual estuvo implicado desde Henry Kissinger a Juan Pablo II fueron agentes de la CIA cara oculta.
 La situación en España con un marica al frente del ministerio de la gobernación, un tullido que los escaños del congreso (el deforme Echenique es  oráculo de Podemos, una especie de think tank cabeza pensante cabeza de chorlito) un vociferante y echado para adelante Iglesias alias mr Churches, un presidente de gobierno que es una nulidad administrativa rodeado de un gabinete que es un gineceo, recuerda un poco el clima que desencadenaron el siglo pasado a la revolución de Timisoara. Pero Rumania no es España y la Guardia Civil no es la Securitate. El instituto Armado fuel servidor de España posee unos servicios de información mejores o tan poderosos como los del Mossad. Es lo que pretenden el Coletas apoderarse del acervo. El sionismo so capa de comunismo quiere crear el caos; sin embargo, pienso que España aguantará. Los demiurgos del régimen mundial como son Soros, Netanyahu y otros alateres han metido la gamba. Puede que el gobierno Sanchete y su gineceo de feministas locas radicales está pinchando en hueso duro. A partir de ahí todo puede pasar hasta incluso que ardan algunas sinagogas en el momento en que Fernando Jauregui reciba de manos del rabino los rollos de la Torá. 
Esto está muy incandescente y volatil. La casa puede arder. Y la judeocracia que nos desgobierna se vaya a tomar por el culo. Si no dimite este desastroso gobierno van a tener que hablar las armas

RITO HISPANO VISIGÓTICO

Estaba la pradera llena de carreristas pedestres que perdían el bofe en el afán de un vida larga. La consigna que traje yo de América fue “run for life” correr para vivir. Algunos paisanos me vieron dando carreras por la arena de la playa de Artedo y se reían de mí como diciendo qué hará ese loco.

En las actualidad el pedestrismo es una nueva religión una fórmula para vivir en el individualismo más absoluto, nadie habla con nadie. Y me preguntaba esta dulce y fresca mañana de mayo y yo me dije mientras conducía camino de Vechernie al banco del municipio pero qué haces tú escribiendo sobre el rito mozárabe mucho más emotivo que el romano. Pues ya ves tú aquí estoy impasible e inasequible al desaliento. Estudio e indago sobre cuestiones  que no interesan pero que explican lo precario de la realidad española de mentes cuadradas sometidos al tercer grado de los servicios informativos y culos grandes de pasar horas desparramados sobre el sofá. El rito hispano romano abolido en el siglo XI conecta al cristianismo hispano con el bizantino. Se oficiaba en griego y en latín. Algunos dicen que en Córdoba se adaptó la lengua árabe pero no consta porque los textos se suprimieron con la irrupción fundamentalista en el Andalus   almohade. Todas las iglesias visigóticas fueron arrasadas y desmanteladas. Sólo quedaron algunas pocas. Pienso en San Baudilio de Berlanga y en algunas otras excepciones. Estos mozárabes eran descendientes de los godos y de los romanos que consiguieron sobrevivir a duras penas bajo el yugo islamita. El rito hispano-visigótico consiguió imponerse en Toledo donde hay una capilla la cual por mandas del cardenal Cisneros oficia la misa según el canon mozárabe a diario. En la ciudad imperial quedan algunas familias de este linaje como los Illana o los Álvarez de Toledo. El duque de alba nuestra mayor alcurnia posee ese origen. Yo pensaba en estas cosas mientras conducía por la Pradera viendo echar carreras a los corredores solitarios ávidos de conservar la salud y no se contagien de la peste china en estos tiempos de cólera. Es lo que hay. Así es la España de hoy. Insolidaria, hedonista. Les causa pavor envejecer y siente pavor ante la muerte. Entonemos un responso a su memoria. Cantemos Kyrie eleyson. Kyrie eleyson. Dios se apiade de nosotros.

JESÚS PARDO

Le conocí en aquel pequeño garito que tenía la delegación de EFE en Londres una buhardilla en Bouverie Street. Era Nochevieja y por san Silvestre todos los gatos son pardos. No conseguí sostener una conversación ahilada con él. Llevaba ya siete güisquis al coleto y le aquejaba la nostalgia de un matrimonio fracasado. Dicen que era un genio pero jamás conseguí terminar ni ninguna de sus novelas como "Ahora es poreciso morir".  SIN EMBARGO, FUE UN BUEN REDACTOR  PERIODISTA DE AGENCIA.
Yo creo que estaba atiborrado de literatura y ya por aquel entonces de los felices setenta estaba calvo y barrigudo. Se abstraía como el mejor de los autistas en su mundo con un libro que siempre tenía en la mano. Hoy lo han enterrado y creo que si le hicieran la autopsia el forense encontraría en sus venas un torrente de vino circulando por su torrente sanguíneo y lo demás sería tinta de letra de molde. El morapio creo que ha conseguido hacer de este cántabro aprensivo e hipocondríaco un veterano escritor que ha llegado a nonagenario con un comprobante: el franquismo para la gente de izquierdas no fue tan malo. A lo mejor mucho más recomendable que la intrincada prosa de Jesús Pardo de Santayana. RIP Y HIP DEL SANTO BEBEDOR.

GAROMANCIA

Está escrito tu destino
En el agua
Ondas esparcidas
Del circulo diabólico
Del pensar
Andas descarriado
A la procura y búsqueda
De un luminoso ideal
Que se esparce por las ondas
Hace un quiebro y se te escapa
La golondrina deja de volar
No pasa nada
Abandona la superstición de la Cabala
Y pon tu vida
En  manos del Creador
Olor de sangre
Olor de rosa
Huye al jardín de Maria
Aquella fragancia
De junio
En Prado Nuevo
Del Escorial
Era celestial
Pomo derramado
Por un ángel del paraiso
Cuando eras geocéntrico
Y te fue mal
Garomancia
La vida se escribe
En el agua del mar
Regresa a tu ovil
Que es torre mística
La armonía del universo
Apaga eso
Se quiebra cuando te conectas a las radios
Y el vociferante Rafa Nieto de la Inter
Se ventosea en loor de catolicidad
El mundo en que vives es un lupanar
Huye al desierto

CHARITIES OENEJES SOLIDARIDADES INSOLIDARIAS BENEFICIENCIAS SOPAS BOBAS FILANTROPIAS...UNZA NUEVA FORMA DE ESCLAVITUD

En una novela de George Orwell leí yo un pasaje que me impresionó: en un centro parroquial anglicano se daba el té de las cinco servido con pastas y una charleta por parte del "parson" (párroco) que por lo visto causó algunos inconvenientes a aquellos pobres vagabundos derrelictos, muchos de ellos ex soldados, ex convictos y en su mayoría alcohólicos  (un tramp  vagabundo carece de vida social, ha renunciado a las mujeres y al sexo, el único pobre consuelo de su existencia es el vino).
Se levantó Paddy, un veterano que había servido en un regimiento de fusileros jugandose la vida por la Reina, fue superviviente del desembarco en Normandía sin que el país por el que luchó reconociese jamás sus méritos y le recompensase con justicia, y reconvino a aquel buen cura ajustándole las cuentas. Le dijo:
-Nada de sermones ni de beneficencias, reverendo que por una oreja nos entran y por la otra nos salen. Lo que nosotros queremos es justicia social. Los que nos quitaron la honra y el trabajo ahora quieren consolarnos dándonos las migajas del gran banquete del capitalismo para aquietar su mala conciencia. 
Si la iglesia entra en ese juego, vosotros los curas no creéis en la doctrina de Jesús  el Cristo. Así que este té con pastas se los meta su reverencia por donde le quepan.
El vagabundo recordó al preste que el ámbito de actuación es espiritual y trabajar por el advenimiento de la justicia. No fue una advertencia sino un clamor profético lo que salió de los labios del pobre derrelicto de la novela "In and out in London and Paris"
Cuando Eric Blair publicó su novela 1984 no habían aparecido las enejes y las charities noi preponderaban como ancilares mandaderas del gobierno mundial: Soros, Rockefeller, los Rochild, Billy Gates, Zuckerberger el apocalíptico amo de Facebook, etc. 
Todos esos que nos han dejado sin trabajo nos han mandado al paro y ahora para resarcir su mala conciencia nos envían al padre Ángel o nos pasan por el pico las enciclícas de Bergoglio y nos dan de comer en sus centros de acogida.
Las ONG trabajan para un mismo amo que aspira a acabar con la estructura nacional de naciones enteras. en nombre de la solidaridad universal. Yo entiendo muy bien por qué en Rusia han sido por Putin prohibidas.
Nadie habla de la caridad humana que es, según san Pablo humilde, paciente, callada, y no busca la publicidad de ese cura asturiano que se está haciendo millonario a costa de los pobres, que se retrata con famosos a golpe de talonario y de minutos por TV, y ha permitido morir a setenta ancianos en una residencia de la cual es titular él en Ponferrada y devenga dineros del Estado. Diabólico es el proceder: propugnar la eutanasia y llenar España de africanos y de gente del tercer mundo. 
Las ONG propician no sólo una nueva esclavitud, trabajan por conseguir el caos en nombre de la beneficencia.  A nadie le quepa duda y no me duelen prendas decirlo, son agentes de la gran conspiración (Verschorwung) decía el Der spiegel en un reportaje de su última edición.
Nos arrebatan el pan de nuestra mesa y luego nos invitan a las migajas de sus cenas solidarias. A mi me parece con todos los respetos que una institución como Cáritas,  que es una gran garita de los vigilantes del Gran Cofrade, es poco caritativa. 
Nuestro Señor dijo buscad mi reino y su justicia y todo lo demás se os dará por añadidura. Desde luego y a pesar de que pueden ser un remedio temporal para paliar el hambre en que nos ha dejado esta endemia, no responden a un criterio evangélico sino a un afán de destrucción y de venganza de la Cruz. 
Estas charities se alimentan de la norma del Talmud y del Candelabro de los siete Brazos. Aspiran a un mundo de ilotas sometida a la bota del gran sanedrín donde se sientan augustos viejos perdularios y ex terroristas como Kissinger, Soros y sus cofrades. el té de las cinco de estas organizaciones solidarias que se lo metan por donde les quepan. 
Yo prefiero en nombre de la Justicia cristiana, una tarea que compete al estado nunca a la Iglesia, pasar hambre y conservar mi dignidad de hombre en nombre de los Derechos Humanos, una bandera que ellos levantan sin que jamás guarden sus mandatos.

VIAJE A LA TIERRA DEL ROMÁN PALADINO, LA RIOJA DONDE NACIÓ EL  ESPAÑOL


Viajo en Medio de la cuarentena a las riberas del Ebro, nadie puede ponerle puertas al campo donde nació el español. NOMBRES ÉPICOS COMO San Millán de la Cogolla.
 Las gallinas del milagro siguen cacareando para solaz del peregrino en Santo Domingo de la Calzada donde cantó la gallina después de asada. 
Aquellos santos varones eremitas mozárabes eran muy milagreros, más que los curas de hoy, pues a nadie se le ocurre ver al Padre Ángel resucitando a la hija de Jairo mientras pone el cazo de las limosnas oenejeras.
La Rioja es tierra hermosa y feraz. Las cuestas de las sierras de la Demanda y de Cameros, cabeza de las Extremaduras y campamento de la Mesta ovejera, ofrecen longitud y latitud a los viñedos de Haro, Arnedo, San Asensio y Calahorra. La vieja Tricium romana, arropada en su colegiata baluarte de peregrinos, sigue allá hierática y episcopal oyendo cantar a algún beodo tras salir de la bodega: 
-“Que Calahorra no es un pueblo que es una gran población que tiene obispo y toda leche y casa de la prostitución”. 
Los moros llamaban a la Rioja “Velez Assikia” (tierra de canales) antes de la batalla de Clavijo que ganamos los cristianos merced a la intervención del Hijo del Trueno. Por sus muchas acequias y cultivos de regadío.
Almanzor saquea san Millán, pero su hijo García reemprende la Reconquista. Es la tierra de Berceo de los milagros de Nuestra Señora y del buen jarro de vino, que habla en román paladino como el hombre suele hablar a su vecino, no como la ministra esa de la portavocía, que da explicaciones a la velocidad de una cotorra.
 ¡Salud! Y de hoy en un año, chiquitos con permiso del Corona Virus.
En Tudela queda el vestigio de alguna sinagoga. De allí era precisamente Benjamín de Tudela el sabio hebreo. Siempre se arriman a tierra firme y donde fluye el dinero los judíos. Que  fueron preponderante en esta región de paso,rica por la industria lanera y famosa por sus caldos, atravesada por las calzadas de Roma y los nudos ferroviarios. Hago trasbordo en Miranda de Ebro  como cuando venía de la mili con permiso y me quedo aspirando las brisas del gran río que surca la medular de la patria. El Ebro es el padre de España.
El escritor falangista Sánchez Mazas compraba esta región ubérrima con la Toscana que aplica la máxima del bonum vivere et bonum bibere
Percibo la sombra de dola Urraca la hija de Sancho de Castilla mal casada con Alfonso I de Aragón la que amenazó con meterse a puta a causa del disgusto que le causó la herencia que le legó el rey su padre. “A los moros por dinero y a los cristianos de balde… callades, hija, callades en boca de una infanta suenan mal esas palabras”.
Fue donde Almanzor perdió el tambor y la maldita hueste napoleónica arrampló con los tesoros de las iglesias. 
La peste volteriana se da un paseo por Castilla asiduamente en el vaivén de las pandemias y los morbos de contagio. Ahora nos afligen las miasmas electrónicas que Billy Gates nos inoculó desde China. Dicen los lemnólogos que es un encargo que nos envían a través del PC. 
San Millán de la Cogolla nos reconforta en la cuaderna vía de Berceo. Nuestra alma y nuestro aliento viven pegados a este monasterio, casa madre de nuestro idioma y un refugio frente a la pandemia asiática del fementido Bellido Dolfos. España siempre sobrevive a los traidores. 
Es la Rioja tierra mariana, se construyeron muchas iglesias románicas y góticas dedicadas a la Virgen que lucen en el frontis la jarra de azucenas que es el emblema de Nuestra Señora. Una verdadera multitud en Castilla. 
Es el logo de la orden de la Jarra que atiende por el nombre de su devoción al dogma de la Encarnación. La teología no se entiende sin los símbolos crípticos.
En un ambiente como éste  de buen vino bajo la devoción de la Mujer Auxilio de los cristianos vestida de sol y calzada de luna el cronista se siente muy a gusto, piensa que no hay parte del mundo mejor

Deinde, iunctis manibus ante pectus, incipit Antiphonam:
S. Introíbo ad altáre Dei.
M. Ad Deum, qui lætíficat iuventútem meam.
Postea alternatim cum Ministris dicit sequentem:
Ps. 42, 1-5. 
S. Iúdica me, Deus, et discérne causam meam de gente non sancta: ab hómine iníquo et dolóso érue me.
M. Quia tu es, Deus, fortitúdo mea: quare me repulísti, et quare tristis incédo, dum afflígit me inimícus?
S. Emítte lucem tuam et veritátem tuam: ipsa me deduxérunt, et adduxérunt in montem sanctum tuum et in tabernácula tua.
M. Et introíbo ad altáre Dei: ad Deum, qui lætíficat iuventútem meam.
S. Confitébor tibi in cíthara, Deus, Deus meus: quare tristis es, ánima mea, et quare contúrbas me?
M. Spera in Deo, quóniam adhuc confitébor illi: salutáre vultus mei, et Deus meus.
S. Glória Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui Sancto.

Sacerdos repetit Antiphonam:
S. Introíbo ad altáre Dei.
M. Ad Deum, qui lætíficat iuventútem meam.

Then joining his hands before his breast, he begins the Anthem:
P. I will go in unto the altar of God.
S. To God who giveth joy to my youth.
The priest alternates with the server in reciting this psalm to express his desire, joy and confidence in going to the altar of the Sacrifice.
Ps. 42, 1-5. 
P. Judge me, O God, and distinguish my cause from the nation which is not holy: deliver me from the unjust and deceitful man.
S. For Thou, O God, art my strength: why hast Thou cast me off? and why go I sorrowful whilst the enemy afflicteth me?
P. Send forth Thy light and Thy truth: they have conducted me and brought me unto Thy holy mount, and into Thy tabernacles.
S. And I will go into the altar of God: to God who giveth joy to my youth.
P. To Thee, O God, my God, I will give praise upon the harp; why art thou sad, O my soul, and why dost thou disquiet me?
S. Hope in God, for I will still give praise to Him: the salvation of my countenance and my God.
P. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost.
S. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
The priest repeats the Anthem:
P. I will go in unto the altar of God.
S. To God who giveth joy to my youth.

Then, joining his hands, and humbly bowing down, he says the Confiteor:
P. I confess to almighty God, to the blessed Mary ever Virgin, blessed Michael the Archangel, blessed John the Baptist, the holy Apostles Peter and Paul, to all the Saints, and to you, brothers, that I have sinned exceedingly in thought, word, and deed, Here he strikes his breast thrice. through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault.

Bowing down, he proceeds:
P. O God, Thou wilt turn again and quicken us.

Let us pray.
Take away from us our iniquities, we beseech Thee, O Lord, that we may be worthy to enter with pure minds into the Holy of Holies, through Christ our Lord. Amen.
His hands joined, and bowing down over the altar, the priest says:

Gloria
Postea in medio Altaris extendens et iungens manus, caputque aliquantulum inclínans, dicit, si dicendum est, Glória in excélsis Deo, et prosequitur iunctis manibus. Cum dicit Adorámus te, Grátias agimus tibi, et Iesu Christe, et Suscipe deprecatiónem, inclinat caput; et in fine dicens: Cum Sancto Spíritu, signat se a fronte ad pectus.
Glória in excélsis Deo. Et in terra pax homínibus bonæ voluntátis. Laudámus te. Benedícimus te. Adorámus te. Glorificámus te. Grátias ágimus tibi propter magnam glóriam tuam. Dómine Deus, Rex coeléstis, Deus Pater omnípotens. Dómine Fili unigénite, Iesu Christe. Dómine Deus, Agnus Dei, Fílius Patris. Qui tollis peccáta mundi, miserére nobis. Qui tollis peccáta mundi, súscipe deprecatiónem nostram. Qui sedes ad déxteram Patris, miserére nobis. Quóniam tu solus Sanctus. Tu solus Dóminus. Tu solus Altíssimus, Iesu Christe. Cum Sancto Spíritu  in glória Dei Patris. Amen.

Gloria
Afterwards, standing at the middle of the altar, extending and then joining his hands,and bowing slightly, the priest says — except during Lent, Advent and in Masses for the Dead — the Gloria. When he says the words: We adore Thee, We give Thee thanks; Jesus Christ; and Receive our prayer, he bows, and at the end he signs himself with the Sign of the Cross from forehead to breast:
Glory be to God on high, and on earth peace to men of good will. We praise Thee. We bless Thee. We adore Thee. We glorify Thee. We give Thee thanks for Thy great glory. O Lord God, heavenly King, God the Father almighty. O Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son. O Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father. Who takest away the sins of the world, have mercy on us. Who takest away the sins of the world, receive our prayer. Who sittest at the right hand of the Father, have mercy on us. For Thou only are holy. Thou only art the Lord. Thou only art most high, O Jesus Christ. Together with the Holy Ghost  in the glory of God the Father. Amen.

Collect
Then the priest kisses the altar, and turning to the people says:
V. The Lord be with you.
R. And with thy spirit.
The Collects mean the collected prayers of all the faithful assisting at the Holy Sacrifice. Raising his voice, his hands, and his sentiments to God, the priest excites the faithful to unite their prayers with his.
Let us pray.
Grant, we beseech thee, Almighty God, that like as we do believe thine Only-Begotten Son our Saviour to have this day ascended into the heavens, so we may also in heart and mind thither ascend, and with Him continually dwell.
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.

Lectio
Léctio Actuum Apostólorum.
Act 1:1-11
Primum quidem sermónem feci de ómnibus, o Theóphile, quæ cœpit Iesus facere et docére usque in diem, qua, præcípiens Apóstolis per Spíritum Sanctum, quos elégit, assúmptus est: quibus et prǽbuit seípsum vivum post passiónem suam in multas arguméntis, per dies quadragínta appárens eis et loquens de regno Dei. Et convéscens, præcépit eis, ab Ierosólymis ne discéderent, sed exspectárent promissiónem Patris, quam audístis -inquit - per os meum: quia Ioánnes quidem baptizávit aqua, vos autem baptizabímini Spíritu Sancto non post multos hos dies. Igitur qui convénerant, interrogábant eum, dicéntes: Dómine, si in témpore hoc restítues regnum Israël? Dixit autem eis: Non est vestrum nosse témpora vel moménta, quæ Pater pósuit in sua potestáte: sed accipiétis virtútem superveniéntis Spíritus Sancti in vos, et éritis mihi testes in Ierúsalem et in omni Iudǽa et Samaría et usque ad últimum terræ. Et cum hæc dixísset, vidéntibus illis, elevátus est, et nubes suscépit eum ab óculis eórum. Cumque intuerétur in cœlum eúntem illum, ecce, duo viri astitérunt iuxta illos in véstibus albis, qui et dixérunt: Viri Galilǽi, quid statis aspiciéntes in cœlum? Hic Iesus, qui assúmptus est a vobis in cœlum, sic véniet, quemádmodum vidístis eum eúntem in cœlum.
R. Deo grátias.

Lesson
Lesson from the Acts of Apostles
Acts 1:1-11
The former treatise I made, O Theophilus, of all things which Jesus began to do and to teach, until the day on which, giving commandments by the Holy Ghost to the Apostles whom he had chosen, he was taken up: To whom also He shewed Himself alive after His Passion by many proofs, for forty days appearing to them, and speaking of the Kingdom of God. And eating together with them, he commanded them, that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but should wait for the promise of the Father, which you have heard - saith he - by My mouth; For John indeed baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence. They therefore who were come together asked him, saying: Lord, wilt Thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel? But He said to them: It is not for you to know the times or moments which the Father hath put in his own power: but you shall receive the power of the Holy Ghost coming upon you, and you shall be witnesses unto Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and Samaria, and even to the uttermost part of the earth. And when He had said these things, while they looked on, He was raised up: and a cloud received Him out of their sight. And while they were beholding him going up to heaven, behold two men stood by them in white garments, who also said: Ye men of Galilee, why stand you looking up to heaven? This Jesus, who is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come, as you have seen him going into heaven.
R. Thanks be to God.

Gospel
The Missal is transferred to the other side of the altar. At Low Masses, the priest, bowing down at the middle of the altar, with his hands joined, says:
Cleanse my heart and my lips, O almighty God, who didst cleanse the lips of the prophet Isaias with a burning coal, and vouchsafe, through Thy gracious mercy, so to purify me, that I may worthily announce Thy holy Gospel. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Give me Thy blessing, O Lord. The Lord be in my heart and on my lips, that I may worthily and in a becoming manner, proclaim His holy Gospel. Amen.

P. The Lord be with you.
S. And with thy spirit.
Continuation  of the Holy Gospel according to Mark
R. Glory be to Thee, O Lord.
Mark 16:14-20
At length he appeared to the eleven as they were at table: and he upbraided them with their incredulity and hardness of heart, because they did not believe them who had seen him after he was risen again. And he said to them: Go ye into the whole world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized, shall be saved: but he that believeth not shall be condemned. And these signs shall follow them that believe: In my name they shall cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; they shall take up serpents; and if they shall drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay their hands upon the sick, and they shall recover. And the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven and sitteth on the right hand of God. But they going forth preached everywhere, the Lord working withal, and confirming the word with signs that followed.
R. Praise be to Thee, O Christ.
S. By the words of the Gospel may our sins be blotted out.

Credo
Deinde ad medium Altaris extendens, elevans et iungens manus, dicit, si dicendum est, Credo in unum Deum, et prosequitur iunctis manibus. Cum dicit Deum, caput Cruci inclinat: quod similiter facit, cum dicit Iesum Christum, et simul adorátur. Ad illa autem verba Et incarnátus est, genuflectit usque dum dicatur Et homo factus est. In fine ad Et vitam ventúri saeculi, signat se signo crucis a fronte ad pectus. 
Credo in unum Deum, Patrem omnipoténtem, factórem coeli et terræ, visibílium ómnium et invisibílium. Et in unum Dóminum Iesum Christum, Fílium Dei unigénitum. Et ex Patre natum ante ómnia saecula. Deum de Deo, lumen de lúmine, Deum verum de Deo vero. Génitum, non factum, consubstantiálem Patri: per quem ómnia facta sunt. Qui propter nos hómines et propter nostram salútem descéndit de coelis. Hic genuflectitur Et incarnátus est de Spíritu Sancto ex María Vírgine: Et homo factus est. Crucifíxus étiam pro nobis: sub Póntio Piláto passus, et sepúltus est. Et resurréxit tértia die, secúndum Scriptúras. Et ascéndit in coelum: sedet ad déxteram Patris. Et íterum ventúrus est cum glória iudicáre vivos et mórtuos: cuius regni non erit finis. Et in Spíritum Sanctum, Dóminum et vivificántem: qui ex Patre Filióque procédit. Qui cum Patre et Fílio simul adorátur et conglorificátur: qui locútus est per Prophétas. Et unam sanctam cathólicam et apostólicam Ecclésiam. Confíteor unum baptísma in remissiónem peccatórum. Et exspécto resurrectiónem mortuórum. Et vitam ventúri saeculi. Amen.

Creed
On Sundays and certain Feasts the priest recites the Creed, a summary of the Catholic Doctrine. This profession of faith was drawn up in the General Councils of Nicaea in 325 and Constantinople in 381 to condemn heretics who denied that Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost were God.
I believe in one God, the Father almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and of all things, visible and invisible.
And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God. And born of the Father, before all ages. God of God: Light of Light: true God of true God. Begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father, by whom all things were made. Who, for us men, and for our salvation, came down from heaven. Here kneel down. And became incarnate by the Holy Ghost of the Virgin Mary: and was made man. He was crucified also for us, suffered under Pontius Pilate, and was buried. And the third day He rose again according to the Scriptures. And ascended into heaven, and sitteth at the right hand of the Father. And He shall come again with glory to judge both the living and the dead, of whose kingdom there shall be no end.
And in the Holy Ghost, the Lord and Giver of Life, proceeding from the Father and the Son. Who together, with the Father and the Son, is adored and glorified: Who spoke by the prophets. And in one, holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. I confess one baptism for the remission of sins. And I look for the resurrection of the dead. And the life of the world to come. Amen.

Offertorium
Deinde osculatur Altare, et versus ad populum, dicit:

Offertory
The priest kisses the altar, and turning to the people says:
P. The Lord be with you.
S. And with thy spirit.
After saluting the people once more, the priest enters upon the Sacrifice of the Mass proper and urges the faithful to pray with him.
Let us pray.
Ps 46:6
God is ascended with jubilee, and the Lord with the sound of trumpet, allelúja.

Quo dicto, si est Missa sollemnis, Diaconus porrigit Celebranti Patenam cum Hostia: si privata, Sacerdos ipse accipit Patenam cum Hostia, quam offerens, dicit:
Suscipe, sancte Pater, omnipotens ætérne Deus, hanc immaculátam hóstiam, quam ego indígnus fámulus tuus óffero tibi Deo meo vivo et vero, pro innumerabílibus peccátis, et offensiónibus, et neglegéntiis meis, et pro ómnibus circumstántibus, sed et pro ómnibus fidélibus christiánis vivis atque defúnctis: ut mihi, et illis profíciat ad salútem in vitam ætérnam. Amen.
15
Then the priest reads the Offertory-verse, a short quotation from Holy Scripture which varies with the Mass of each day. This being finished, he offers the bread and wine, which, by virtue of the words of consecration, he is going to change into the adorable Body and Blood of Jesus Christ. He takes the paten with the host and offering it up, says:
Accept, O holy Father, almighty and eternal God, this unspotted host, which I, Thy unworthy servant, offer unto Thee, my living and true God, for my innumerable sins, offenses, and negligences, and for all here present: as also for all faithful Christians, both living and dead, that it may avail both me and them for salvation unto life everlasting. Amen.

Deinde faciens crucem cum eadem Patena, deponit Hostiam super Corporale. Diaconus ministrat vinum, Subdiaconus aquam in Calice: vel si privata est Missa, utrumque infundit Sacerdos, et aquam miscendam in Calice benedicit signo crucis, dicens:
Deus, qui humánæ substántiæ dignitátem mirabíliter condidísti, et mirabílius reformásti: da nobis per huius aquæ et vini mystérium, eius divinitátis esse consórtes, qui humanitátis nostræ fíeri dignátus est párticeps, Iesus Christus, Fílius tuus, Dóminus noster: Qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitáte Spíritus Sancti Deus: per ómnia saecula sæculórum. Amen.
16
Making the Sign of the Cross with the paten, he places the host upon the corporal. He pours wine and water into the chalice, blessing the water before it is mixed. He pours a few drops of water into the chalice containing wine, in remembrance of the water and blood which flowed from the side of Jesus when pierced by the soldier's lance.
O God, who, in creating human nature, didst wonderfully dignify it, and still more wonderfully restore it, grant that, by the Mystery of this water and wine, we may be made partakers of His divine nature, who vouchsafed to be made partaker of our human nature, even Jesus Christ our Lord, Thy Son, who with Thee, liveth and reigneth in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God: world without end. Amen.

Postea accipit Calicem, et offert dicens:
Offérimus tibi, Dómine, cálicem salutáris, tuam deprecántes cleméntiam: ut in conspéctu divínæ maiestátis tuæ, pro nostra et totíus mundi salute, cum odóre suavitátis ascéndat. Amen.
Deinde facit signum crucis cum Calice, et illum ponit super Corporale, et Palla cooperit: tum, iunctis manibus super Altare, aliquantulum inclinatus, dicit:
In spíritu humilitátis et in ánimo contríto suscipiámur a te, Dómine: et sic fiat sacrifícium nostrum in conspéctu tuo hódie, ut pláceat tibi, Dómine Deus.
Erectus expandit manus, easque in altum porrectas iungens, elevátis ad coelum oculis et statim demissis, dicit:
Veni, sanctificátor omnípotens ætérne Deus: Benedicit Oblata, prosequendo: et bene  dic hoc sacrifícium, tuo sancto nómini præparátum.
17
Then the priest takes the chalice, and offers it, saying:
We offer unto Thee, O Lord, the chalice of salvation, beseeching Thy clemency, that it may ascend before Thy divine Majesty, as a sweet savor, for our salvation, and for that of the whole world. Amen.
The priest makes the Sign of the Cross with the chalice, places it upon the corporal, and covers it with the pall. Then, with his hands joined upon the Altar, and slightly bowing down, he says:
Accept us, O Lord, in the spirit of humility and contrition of heart, and grant that the sacrifice which we offer this day in Thy sight may be pleasing to Thee, O Lord God.
Raising his eyes towards heaven, extending and then joining his hands, the priest makes the Sign of the Cross over the host and the chalice, while he invokes the Holy Spirit.
Come, O almighty and eternal God, the Sanctifier, and bless  this Sacrifice, prepared for the glory of Thy holy Name.

The priest washes his fingers to symbolize the great purity and inner cleanliness of those who offer or participate in this great Sacrifice.
Psalm 25. 6-12
I will wash my hands among the innocent: and I will compass Thine altar, O Lord That I may hear the voice of praise: and tell of all Thy wonderous works. I have loved, O Lord, the beauty of Thy house and the place where Thy glory dwelleth. Take not away my soul, O God, with the wicked: nor my life with blood-thirsty men. In whose hands are iniquities, their right hand is filled with gifts. But I have walked in my innocence: redeem me, and have mercy on me. My foot hath stood in the direct way, in the churches I will bless Thee, O Lord.

Preface
The priest begins the preface, a call to render thanks to God the Father, through Jesus Christ, in union with all the heavenly spirits. The prayer of thanksgiving and praise varies with important Feasts. The priest begins the Preface, holding his hands over the altar:
P. The Lord be with you.
S. And with thy spirit.
P. Lift up your hearts.
S. We have lifted them up to the Lord.
P. Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
S. It is meet and just.

Ascension
It is truly meet and just, right and for our salvation, that we should at all times, and in all places, give thanks unto Thee, O holy Lord, Father almighty, everlasting God: through Christ our Lord. Who, after His Resurrection, appeared openly to all His disciples, and, while they looked on, was taken up into heaven, that He might grant unto us to be sharers in His own divinity. And therefore, with Angels and Archangels, with Thrones and Dominations, and with all the hosts of the heavenly army, we sing the hymn of Thy glory, evermore saying:

Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of Sabaoth! Heaven and earth are full of Thy glory! Hosanna in the highest! Blessed is He that cometh in the Name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!

Tunc celebrans inclinat se ante medium altaris, et manibus iunctis super illud, dicit secrete:
Pláceat tibi, sancta Trínitas, obséquium servitútis meæ: et præsta; ut sacrifícium, quod óculis tuæ maiestátis indígnus óbtuli, tibi sit acceptábile, mihíque et ómnibus, pro quibus illud óbtuli, sit, te miseránte, propitiábile. Per Christum, Dóminum nostrum. Amen.
53
May the performance of my homage be pleasing to Thee, O holy Trinity: and grant that the Sacrifice which I, though unworthy, have offered up in the sight of Thy Majesty, may be acceptable to Thee, and through Thy mercy, be a propitiation for me, and for all those for whom I have offered it. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Deinde osculatur Altare: et elevatis oculis, extendens, elevans et iungens manus, caputque Cruci inclínans, dicit: 
Benedícat vos omnípotens Deus,
et versus ad populum, semel tantum benedícens, etiam in Missis sollemnibus; In Missa Pontificali ter benedicitur, ut in Pontificali habetur. Deinde prosequitur: 
Pater, et Fílius,  et Spíritus Sanctus.
R. Amen.
54
He kisses the altar, and raising his eyes, extending, raising and joining his hands, he bows down his head and says:
P. May almighty God the Father, Son,  and Holy Ghost,

bless you.
S. Amen.

Deinde sacerdos in cornu Evangelii, iunctis manibus dicit:
V. Dominus vobiscum.
R. Et cum spiritu tuo.
Et signans signo crucis primum Altare vel librum, deinde se in fronte, ore et pectore, dicit:
Initium +︎ sancti Evangélii secúndum Ioánnem
R. Glória tibi, Dómine.
Ioann. 1, 1-14. 
Iunctis manibus prosequitur:
In princípio erat Verbum, et Verbum erat apud Deum, et Deus erat Verbum. Hoc erat in princípio apud Deum. Omnia per ipsum facta sunt: et sine ipso factum est nihil, quod factum est: in ipso vita erat, et vita erat lux hóminum: et lux in ténebris lucet, et ténebræ eam non comprehendérunt.
Fuit homo missus a Deo, cui nomen erat Ioánnes. Hic venit in testimónium, ut testimónium perhibéret de lúmine, ut omnes créderent per illum. Non erat ille lux, sed ut testimónium perhibéret de lúmine.
Erat lux vera, quæ illúminat omnem hóminem veniéntem in hunc mundum. In mundo erat, et mundus per ipsum factus est, et mundus eum non cognóvit. In própria venit, et sui eum non recepérunt. Quotquot autem recepérunt eum, dedit eis potestátem fílios Dei fíeri, his, qui credunt in nómine eius: qui non ex sanguínibus, neque ex voluntáte carnis, neque ex voluntáte viri, sed ex Deo nati sunt. Genuflectit dicens: Et Verbum caro factum est, Et surgens prosequitur: et habitávit in nobis: et vídimus glóriam eius, glóriam quasi Unigéniti a Patre, plenum grátiæ et veritatis.
R. Deo grátias.
Finito Evangelio sancti Ioannis, discedens ab Altari, pro gratiarum actione dicit Ant. Trium puerórum, cum reliquis, ut habetur in principio Missalis.

Then turning to the Gospel side of the altar, the priest says:
P. The Lord be with you.
S. And with thy spirit.
He then traces the Sign of the Cross, first upon the altar, and then upon his forehead, lips, and breast, and says:
The beginning +︎ of the holy Gospel according to John.
R. Glory be to Thee, O Lord.
Joann. 1, 1-14. 

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him, and without Him was made nothing that was made: in Him was life, and the life was the Light of men; and the Light shineth in darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.
There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. This man came for a witness, to testify concerning the Light, that all might believe through Him. He was not the Light, but he was to testify concerning the Light.
That was the true Light, which enlighteneth every man that cometh into this world. He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knew Him not. He came unto His own, and His own received Him not. But as many as received Him to them He gave power to become sons of God, to them that believe in His Name, who are born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. Here all kneel. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us: and we saw His glory, the glory as of the Only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.
R. Thanks be to God.
