5Lesson. Isaias xii. 1—6. I will give thanks to thee, O Lord, for thou wast angry with me; thy wrath is turned away, and thou hast comforted me. Behold, God is my Saviour, I will deal confidently, and will not fear: because the Lord is my strength, and my praise, and he is become my salvation. You shall draw waters with joy out of the Saviour's fountains: and you shall say in that day: Praise ye the Lord, and call upon his name: make his works known among the people: remember that his name is high. Sing ye to the Lord, for he hath done
6great things: shew this forth in all the earth. Rejoice, and praise, O thou habitation of Sion: for great is he that is in the midst of thee, the Holy One of Israel.
7Gradual. O all ye that pass by the way, attend and see if there be any sorrow like to my sorrow. Having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them unto the end. Alleluia, alleluia. Learn of me, because I am meek and humble of heart; and you shall find rest to your souls. Alleluia.
8Gospel. St. John xix. 31—35. At that time, the Jews (because it was the parasceve), that the bodies might not remain upon the cross on the Sabbath-day (for that was a great Sabbath-day), besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away. The soldiers therefore came, and they broke the legs of the first, and of the other that was crucified with him. But after they were come to Jesus, when they saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs, but one of the soldiers with a spear opened his side, and immediately there came out blood and water. And he that saw it hath given testimony, and his testimony is true. Credo.
9Offertory. Bless the Lord, O my soul: and never forget all he hath done for thee: who satisfieth thy desire with good things. Alleluia.
10Secret. Defend us, O Lord, who offer to thee thy holocaust: to which that our hearts may be more fervently prepared, enkindle within them the flames of thy divine charity. Who livest, &c.

13Communion. My heart hath expected reproach and misery: and I looked for one that would grieve together with me, but there was none; and for one that would comfort me, and I found none. Alleluia.
14Postcom. Pacificis. Being fed with peaceful delights and salutary sacraments, we suppliantly beseech thee, O Lord our God, that thou, who art meek and humble of heart, wouldst make us, being cleansed from the stain of every vice, more resolutely abhor the proud vanities of the world. Who livest, &c.
