Holy Mary, *

Glorious Mother of the King of Kings, *

St. Thomas of Aquinas, *

Worthy child of the Queen of virgins, *

St. Thomas most chaste, *

St. Thomas most patient, *

Prodigy of science, *

Silently eloquent, *

Reproach of the ambitious, *

Lover of that life which is hidden with Christ in God, *

Fragrant flower in the garden of St. Dominic, *

Glory of the Friars Preachers, *

Illumined from on high, *

Angel of the Schools, *

Oracle of the Church, *

Incomparable scribe of the Man-God, *

Satiated with the odor of His perfumes, *

Perfect in the school of His Cross, *

Intoxicated with the strong wine of His charity, *

Glittering gem in the cabinet of the Lord, *

Model of perfect obedience, *

Endowed with the true spirit of holy poverty, *

Lamb of God, Who takes away the sins of the world, spare us, O Lord.

Lamb of God, Who takes away the sins of the world, graciously hear us, O Lord.

Lamb of God, Who takes away the sins of the world, have mercy on us.

Oh, how beautiful is the chaste generation with glory, 

For the memory thereof is immortal.

Because it is known with God and man,

And it triumpheth crowned forever.

V. What have I in heaven, or what do I desire on earth!

R. Thou art the God of my heart, and my portion forever.

* Pray for us.

Let us pray

O God, Who has ordained that blessed Thomas should enlighten Thy church, grant that through his prayers we may practice what he taught, through Christ Our Lord. Amen.
