The Roman Missal: Proper of Saints, July (English) 15

1[July 18. St Camillus, Confessor.—Double.]

2Introit. St John xv. Greater love than this no man hath, that a man lay down his life for his friends. Ps. Blessed is he that understandeth concerning the needy and the poor: the Lord will deliver him in the evil day. Glory, &c.

3Prayer. Deus qui sanctum. O God, who didst favour Saint Camillus with a singular privilege of charity for the support of souls in their last agony; we beseech thee by his merits to infuse into us the spirit of thy love, that in the hour of our death we may deserve to conquer the enemy, and arrive at a heavenly crown. Through our Lord, … in the unity of the same Holy Spirit, &c.

4[Then is made a Commemoration of St Symphorosa and her Seven Sons, Martyrs, by the Prayer, Deus qui nos concedis, with its Secret and Postcommunion from the Mass, Sapientiam of many Martyrs, page XXII.]

5[Epistle. 1 St John iii. 13—18. Wonder not if the world hate you, as page 424.]

6Gradual. The mouth of the just shall meditate wisdom, and his tongue shall speak judgment.—The law of his God is in his heart; and his steps shall not be supplanted. Alleluia, alleluia.—Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord, he delights exceedingly in his commandments. Alleluia.

7Gospel. St John xv. 12—16. At that time, Jesus said to his disciples, This is my commandment, that you love one another, as I have loved you. Greater love than this no man hath, that a man lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends, if you do the things that I command you. I will not now call you servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doth. But I have called you friends; because all things whatsoever I have heard of my Father, I have made known to you. You have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and have appointed you that you should go and should bring forth fruit, and your fruit should remain; that whatsoever you should ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.

8Offertory. In thy strength, O Lord, the just shall joy, and in thy salvation he shall rejoice exceedingly: thou hast given him his heart's desire.

9Secret. May the unspotted victim, by which we renew that work of the immense charity of our Lord Jesus Christ, be a salutary remedy, through the intercession of Saint Camillus, against all infirmities of body and soul, and in our last agony, comfort, and protection. Through the same Lord, &c.

10[Secret of SS. Symphorosa, &c. as directed above.]

11Communion. I was sick and you visited me: Amen, amen I say to you, as long as you did it to one of these my least brethren, you did it to me.

12Postcom. Per hæc cælestia. By this heavenly food, which in celebrating the solemnity of Saint Camillus thy confessor, we have received with pious devotion, grant we beseech thee, O Lord, that at the hour of our death being refreshed with the sacraments and purified from all sins, we may deserve to be received rejoicing into the bosom of thy mercy. Who livest, &c.
