the clothing he brought to the naked.
Implore him all.

He wounded with his trumpet
in the worlds that are far, that are near, he roused them all.
Implore him all.
The ruler of the earth rose up against him
and persecuted him in his cities.
Implore him all.
He assumed the heart of his judges
that they might condemn him like the impious.
Implore him all.
They shut him up in their prisons
and loaded his limbs with iron.
We implore him.

that they might cast a slur on him daily.
Implore him all.
In the power of his glorious Father . . .

knowing not what they were doing.
Implore him all.

bore witness concerning his eminence.
Implore him all.
Let us bless him now, my brethren,
and sing to him in one spirit.
Implore him all.
We pray thee all of us together,
the Elect and the Believers.
Implore him all.
Do not make reckoning with us now, our Lord,
according to the multitude of our sins.
Implore him all.
Glory to the Father,
who sent thee for the salvation of thy holy Churches.
Implore him all.
Glory and victory to the Paraclete,
our Light, Man, and the soul of Mary.
Implore him all.
