EPISTLE. Ezekiel 34:11-16
11 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I, even I, will both
search my sheep, and seek them out.
12 As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the day that he is
among his sheep that are scattered; so will I seek out my sheep,
and will deliver them out of all places where they have been
scattered in the cloudy and dark day.
13 And I will bring them out from the people, and gather them
from the countries, and will bring them to their own land, and
feed them upon the mountains of Israel by the rivers, and in
all the inhabited places of the country.
14 I will feed them in a good pasture, and upon the high mountains
of Israel shall their fold be: there shall they lie in a good
fold, and in a fat pasture shall they feed upon the mountains
of Israel.
15 I will feed my flock, and I will cause them to lie down, saith
the Lord GOD.
16 I will seek that which was lost, and bring again that which
was driven away, and will bind up that which was broken, and
will strengthen that which was sick: but I will destroy the fat
and the strong; I will feed them with judgment, saith the Lord
Almighty.
GRADUAL. Ps. 84. Behold, O God our
defender: and look upon they servants. V. O Lord
God of hosts, hear the prayers of they servants.
TRACT. Ps. 103. O Lord, deal not with us after
our sins; nor reward us according to wickednesses. V. Ps. 79.
Lord, remember not our old sins, but have mercy upon us, and
that soon: for we are come to great misery. V. (Here genuflect.)
Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of thy Name, O
Lord: O deliver us and be merciful unto our sins, for thy Name's
sake.
GOSPEL. Matthew 25:31-46
31
AT that time: Jesus said unto his disciples: When the Son of
man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him,
then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:
32 And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall
separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep
from the goats:
33 And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats
on the left.
34 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come,
ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you
from the foundation of the world:
35 For I was an hungered, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty,
and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I
was in prison, and ye came unto me.
37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw
we thee an hungered, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee
drink?
38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and
clothed thee?
39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say
unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of
these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart
from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil
and his angels:
42 For I was an hungered, and ye gave me no meat; I was thirsty,
and ye gave me no drink:
43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed
me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we
thee an hungered, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick,
or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you,
Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did
it not to me.
46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the
righteous into life eternal.
OFFERTORY. Ps. 119. I will lift up mine eyes,
O Lord, that I may see the wondrous things of thy law, that I
may learn thy judgements: O give me understanding that I may
learn they commandments.
SECRET.
We beseech thee, O Lord, that thou wouldest vouchsafe to
sanctify these our oblations : and to cleanse us from the defilement

COMMUNION. St. Matt. 25. Verily I say
unto you : Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least
of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me : come ye blessed
of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the beginning
of the world.
POSTCOMMUNION.
O Lord, who hast vouchsafed to bestow upon us the healing gifts
of thy bounty : grant, we beseech thee; that, like as we do rejoice
in the partaking of the same, so they may be inwardly profitable
to the renewing of our souls. Through.
Over the people. Let us pray. Bow down before
the Lord.

: and of thy great mercy turn aside from us the punishment, which
