Lectio
EpistleLesson from the book of Revelation
In diébus illis: Audívi vocem de cœlo, dicéntem mihi: Scribe: Beáti mórtui, qui in Dómino moriúntur. Amodo jam dicit Spíritus, ut requiéscant a labóribus suis: ópera enim illórum sequúntur illos.
In those days, I heard a voice from heaven saying, Write: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord henceforth. Yes, says the Spirit, let them rest from their labors, for their works follow them.

Evangelium
GospelContinuation + of the Holy Gospel according to John
In illo témpore: Dixit Jesus turbis Judæórum: Ego sum panis vivus, qui de cœlo descéndi. Si quis manducáverit ex hoc pane, vivet in ætérnum: et panis, quem ego dabo, caro mea est pro mundi vita. Litigábant ergo Judæi ad ínvicem, dicéntes: Quómodo potest hic nobis carnem suam dare ad manducándum? Dixit ergo eis Jesus: Amen, amen, dico vobis: nisi manducavéritis carnem Fílii hóminis et bibéritis ejus sánguinem, non habébitis vitam in vobis.
Qui mánducat meam carnem et bibit meum sánguinem, habet vitam ætérnam: et ego resuscitábo eum in novíssimo die.
At that time, Jesus said to the multitudes of the Jews, I am the living bread that has come down from heaven. If anyone eat of this bread he shall live forever; and the bread that I will give is My Flesh for the life of the world. The Jews on that account argued with one another, saying, How can this man give us His Flesh to eat? Jesus therefore said to them, Amen, amen, I say to you, unless you eat the Flesh of the Son of Man, and drink His Blood, you shall not have life in you.
He who eats My Flesh and drinks My Blood has life everlasting and I will raise him up on the last day.
Offertorium
OffertoryDómine Iesu Christe, Rex glóriæ, líbera ánimas ómnium fidélium defunctórum de pœnis inférni et de profúndo lacu: líbera eas de ore leónis, ne absórbeat eas tártarus, ne cadant in obscúrum: sed sígnifer sanctus Míchaël repræséntet eas in lucem sanctam: Quam olim Abrahæ promisísti et sémini eius.
V. Hóstias et preces tibi, Dómine, laudis offérimus: tu súscipe pro animábus illis, quarum hódie memóriam fácimus: fac eas, Dómine, de morte transíre ad vitam. Quam olim Abrahæ promisísti et sémini eius.
O Lord, Jesus Christ, King of glory, deliver the souls of all the faithful departed from the pains of hell and the deep pit; deliver them from the lion's mouth, that hell engulf them not, nor they fall into darkness, but that Michael, the holy standard-bearer, bring them into the holy light which You once promised to Abraham and his seed.
V. We offer You, O Lord, sacrifices and prayers of praise; accept them for those souls whom we this day commemorate; grant them, O Lord, to pass from death to the life which You once promised to Abraham and his seed.
