Collect

Omnípotens sempitérne Deus, qui infírma mundi éligis, ut fórtia quæque confúndas: concéde propítius; ut, qui beátæ Agnétis Vírginis et Mártyris tuæ sollémnia cólimus, ejus apud te patrocínia sentiámus.

Almighty, eternal God, You Who choose the weak things of the world to confound the strong, mercifully grant that we who are celebrating the feast of blessed Agnes, Your Virgin and Martyr, may reap the benefit of her patronal intercession with You.

Gradual (Ps 44:3)

Diffúsa est grátia in lábiis tuis: proptérea benedíxit te Deus in ætérnum.

Grace is poured out upon your lips; thus God has blessed you forever.

Propter veritátem et mansuetúdinem et justítiam: et dedúcet te mirabíliter déxtera tua.

In the cause of truth and mercy and for the sake of justice; may your right hand show you wondrous deeds. Alleluia, alleluia.

Allelúja, allelúja.

The five wise virgins took oil in their vessels with the lamps; and at midnight a cry arose, Behold the bridegroom is coming, go forth to meet Christ our Lord. Alleluia.

Quinque prudéntes vírgines accepérunt óleum in vasis suis cum lampádibus: média autem nocte clamor factus est: Ecce, sponsus venit: exíte óbviam Christo Dómino. Allelúja.

Secret

Hóstias, Dómine, quas tibi offérimus, propítius súscipe: et, intercedénte beáta Agnéte Vírgine et Mártyre tua, víncula peccatórum nostrórum absólve.

Graciously accept, O Lord, the sacrificial gifts we offer You and by the intercession of blessed Agnes, Your Virgin and Martyr, loose our sins.

Postcommunion

Refreshed with heavenly food and drink, we humbly pray You, our God, that we also may be helped by her prayers in memory of whom we have partaken of these gifts.

S. Agnes, Virgin and Martyr
