Epistle: Apocalypse xi. 19; xii. 1, 10
Lesson from the book of the Apocalypse. And the temple of God was opened in heaven; and the ark of His testament was seen in His temple, and there were lightnings and voice, and an earthquake and great hail. And a great sign appeared in heaven: A women clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. And I heard a loud voice in heaven saying: Now is come salvation and strength and the Kingdom of our God and the power of His Christ.
Gradual: Canticle of Canticles ii. 12, 10, 14
The flowers have appeared in our land, the time of pruning is come, the voice of the turtle is heard in our land. ℣. Arise, my love, my beautiful one, and come; my dove in the clefts of the rock, in the hollow places of the wall.
Alleluia
Alleluia, alleluia. ℣. Show Me thy face, let thy voice sound in My ears, for thy voice is sweet and thy face comely. Alleluia.
Gospel: Luke i. 26-38
+ Continuation of the holy Gospel according to the holy Apostle Luke. At that time, the angel Gabriel was sent from God into a city of Galilee, called Nazareth, to a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David: and the virgin's name was Mary. And the angel being come in, said unto her: Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women. Who having heard, was troubled at his saying and thought with herself what manner of salutation this should be. And the angel said to her: Fear not, Mary, for thou hast found grace with God. Behold thou shalt conceive in thy womb and shalt bring forth a Son: and thou shalt call His name Jesus.
Offertory: Luke i. 28
Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee, blessed art thou amongst women.
