Ecce panis Angelórum, factus cibus viatórum: vere panis filiórum, non mitténdus cánibus, alleluia, alleluia...
Deus, qui nobis sub Sacraménto mirábili passiónis tuæ memóriam reliquísti: tríbue, quǽsumus, ita nos Córporis et Sánguinis tui sacra mystéria venerári; ut redemptiónis tuæ fructum in nobis júgiter sentiámus: Qui vivis et regnas.
Pange, lingua, gloriósiCórporis mystérium,
Sanguinísque pretiósi,
Quem in mundi prétium
Fructus ventris generósi
Rex effúdit géntium.
Nobis datus, nobis natus
Ex intácta Vírgine,
Et in mundo conversátus,
Sparso verbi sémine,
Sui moras incolátus
Miro clausit órdine.
In suprémæ nocte cenæ
Recúmbens cum frátribus,
Observáta lege plene
Cibis in legálibus,
Cibum turbæ duodénæ
Se dat suis mánibus.
Verbum caro, panem verum
Verbo carnem éfficit;
Fitque sanguis Christi merum:
Et si sensus déficit,
Ad firmándum cor sincérum
Sola fides súfficit.
Tantum ergo Sacraméntum
Venerémur cérnui:
Et antíquum documéntum
Novo cedat rítui:
Præstet fides suppleméntum
Sénsuum deféctui.
Genitóri, Genitóque
Laus et jubilátio,
Salus, honor, virtus quoque
Sit et benedíctio:
Procedénti ab utróque
Compar sit laudátio.
Amen.
Today is the 2nd Sunday post Pentecosten, and the Mass is Factus est Dóminus protéctor meus (this was formerly called the Mass infra Octavam Corporis Christi). Here in Oregon and in much of the United States propter pravitatem nostram the feast is transferred (as to its proper day) to today, which happens also in France and elsewhere. In churches where the Traditional Rite is maintained (as at Saint-Eugène and at Le Barroux), the feast of the Most Holy Body of Christ was celebrated on its proper day, Thursday, but the 'external solemnity' (in the case of Saint-E., Solemn Mass, the presence of the Schola etc, and the Procession; at Le Barroux, perhaps the Pontifical Mass-- I don't recall if the Lord Abbot celebrated Thursday or not-- and the Procession) are transferred to today.
The Liturgia page is here; the livret for Holy Mass is here, that for Vespers, here, and for the Procession and Benediction, here.
The celebrant and homilist at Holy Mass at Saint-E. was Fr Serafino Maria Lanzetta of the Marian Franciscans; he gave a retreat at Saint-E. yesterday (where is a Confrérie de Marie Corédemptrice). (The Marian Franciscans are devoted to Our Lady Co-Redemptrix; 'the fifth dogma', people say: Our Lady's divine Maternity, her Immaculate Conception, her perpetual Virginity, and her Assumption-- I think that these are the first four-- and then is wanted a dogmatic definition of Our Lady as Mediatrix and Co-Redemptrix. As the Confrérie's page says, it is chiefly devoted to the praying of the Rosary.) He is a most excellent preacher and teacher of the Faith; it is possible that his French pronunciation is rather less perfect than he may believe it to be. The Marian Franciscans were exiled from Italy (this, in some fashion or another: I don't keep such details in my poor head) due to the malevolence of Franciscus (well, who knows; it is just as likely that heterodox local bishops agitated...) and are now established in two dioceses in the United Kingdom. The Marian Franciscans are devoted to Our Lady Co-Redemptrix.
The Procession took place after Vespers and was followed by Benediction of the Most Blessed Sacrament. I watched as much of the Procession as I could, given the glitches in the transmission; these seem to be unavoidable without what would be a doubtless expensive upgrade of their equipment etc etc. Observed not a single expression of worship or devotion evinced by the hundreds of Parisians and tourists the Lord passed by but, lots of glitches so who knows. The Schola sounded wonderful and the full complement of trumpets, trombones-- the violins and violoncello remaining in the gallery.
The hymn at Lauds.
At Saint-Eugène, the procession as the clergy entered the sanctuary was accompanied by the singing of today's sequence Lauda Sion Salvatorem in the plain-chant d’Amiens. The Asperges followed as is usual on Sundays; this was omitted at Le Barroux.
Kyrie, Gloria.
Oratio. Deus, qui nobis sub Sacraménto mirábili passiónis tuæ memóriam reliquísti: tríbue, quǽsumus, ita nos Córporis et Sánguinis tui sacra mystéria venerári; ut redemptiónis tuæ fructum in nobis júgiter sentiámus: Qui vivis et regnas.
Allelúja, allelúja. V. Joann. 6, 56-57. Caro mea vere est cibus, et sanguis meus vere est potus: qui mandúcat meam carnem et bibit meum sánguinem, in me manet et ego in eo.
M de Villiers's note in the livret at Saint-E. says that the Lauda Sion Salvatorem of Saint Thomas is "composé sur la séquence Laudes Crucis d’Adam de Saint-Victor"; I'm not quite sure what that means. Laudes Crucis attolamus (p 110 in the edition of Adam I've got here) looks to have the same metrical structure, anyway, but I've not read it this morning.
✠ Sequéntia sancti Evangéli secúndum Joánnem.
1. Joann. 6, 56-59.
In illo témpore: Dixit Jesus turbis Judæórum: Caro mea vere est cibus et sanguis meus vere est potus. Qui mandúcat meam carnem e bibit meum sánguinem, in me manet et ego in illo. Sicut misit me vivens Pater, et ego vivo propter Patrem: et qui mandúcat me, et ipse vivet propter me. Hic est panis, qui de cœlo descéndit. Non sicut manducavérunt patres vestri manna, et mórtui sunt. Qui manducat hunc panem, vivet in ætérnum.
At Saint-Eugène, the Incarnatus est of from the Missa syllabica of Jean de Bournonville (1585-1632) was sung in Credo III.
Secreta. Ecclésiæ tuæ, quǽsumus, Dómine, unitátis et pacis propítius dona concéde: quæ sub oblátis munéribus mýstice designántur. Per Dóminum.
Præfatio de Nativitáte.
At Saint-Eugène, the Praefatio of the Most Blessed Sacrament proper in the Use of Paris was sung.
Postcommunio. Fac nos, quæsumus, Dómine, divinitátis tuæ sempitérna fruitióne repléri: quam pretiósi Corporis et Sanguinis tui temporalis percéptio præfigúrat: Qui vivis.
Sacris solémniis juncta sint gáudia,
Et ex præcórdiis sonent præcónia;
Recédant vétera, nova sint ómnia,
Corda, voces, et ópera.
Noctis recólitur cœna novíssima,
Qua Christus créditur agnum et ázyma
Dedísse frátribus, juxta legítima
Priscis indúlta pátribus.
Post agnum týpicum, explétis épulis,
Corpus Domínicum datum discípulis,
Sic totum ómnibus, quod totum síngulis,
Ejus fatémur mánibus.
Dedit fragílibus córporis férculum,
Dedit et trístibus sánguinis póculum,
Dicens: Accípite quod trado vásculum;
Omnes ex eo bíbite.
Sic sacrifícium istud instítuit,
Cujus offícium commítti vóluit
Solis presbýteris, quibus sic cóngruit,
Ut sumant, et dent céteris.
Panis angélicus fit panis hóminum;
Dat panis cǽlicus figúris términum;
O res mirábilis: mandúcat Dóminum
Pauper, servus et húmilis.
Te, trina Déitas únaque, póscimus;
Sic nos tu vísita, sicut te cólimus:
Per tuas sémitas duc nos quo téndimus,
Ad lucem quam inhábitas.
Amen.
The hymn at Lauds.
Verbum supérnum pródiens,
Nec Patris linquens déxteram,
Ad opus suum éxiens,
Venit ad vitæ vésperam.
In mortem a discípulo
Suis tradéndus ǽmulis,
Prius in vitæ férculo
Se trádidit discípulis.
Quibus sub bina spécie
Carnem dedit et sánguinem;
Ut dúplicis substántiæ
Totum cibáret hóminem.
Se nascens dedit sócium,
Convéscens in edúlium,
Se móriens in prétium,
Se regnans dat in prǽmium.
O salutáris hóstia,
Quæ cæli pandis óstium,
Bella premunt hostília;
Da robur, fer auxílium.
Uni trinóque Dómino,
Sit sempitérna glória:
Qui vitam sine término
Nobis donet in pátria.
Amen.

Léctio Epistolæ beáti Pauli Apóstoli ad Corinthios.
1. Cor. 11, 23-29.
Fratres: Ego enim accépi a Dómino quod et trádidí vobis, quóniam Dóminus Jesus, in qua nocte tradebátur, accépit panem, et grátias agens fregit, et dixit: Accípite, et manducáte: hoc est corpus meum, quod pro vobis tradétur: hoc fácite in meam commemorationem. Simíliter ei cálicem, postquam cenávit, dicens: Hic calix novum Testaméntum est in meo sánguine. Hoc fácite, quotiescúmque bibétis, in meam commemoratiónem. Quotiescúmque enim manducábitis panem hunc et cálicem bibétis, mortem Dómini annuntiábitis, donec véniat. Itaque quicúmque manducáverit panem hunc vel bíberit cálicem Dómini indígne, reus erit córporis et sánguinis Dómini. Probet autem seípsum homo: et sic de pane illo e dat et de calice bibat. Qui enim mánducat et bibit indígne, iudicium sibi mánducat et bibit: non dijúdicans corpus Dómini.
Graduale. Ps. 144, 15-16. Oculi ómnium in te sperant, Dómine: et tu das illis escam in témpore opportúno. V. Aperis tu manum tuam: et imples omne animal benedictióne.

Sequéntia. Sancti Thomæ de Aquino.
Lauda, Sion, Salvatórem,
lauda ducem et pastórem
in hymnis et cánticis.
Quantum potes, tantum aude:
quia major omni laude,
nec laudáre súffícis.
Laudis thema speciális,
panis vivus et vitális
hódie propónitur.
Quem in sacræ mensa cenæ
turbæ fratrum duodénæ
datum non ambígitur.
Sit laus plena, sit sonóra,
sit jucúnda, sit decóra
mentis jubilátio.
Dies enim sollémnis agitur,
in qua mensæ prima recólitur
hujus institútio.
In hac mensa novi Regis,
novum Pascha novæ legis
Phase vetus términat.
Vetustátem nóvitas,
umbram fugat véritas,
noctem lux elíminat.
Quod in cœna Christus gessit,
faciéndum hoc expréssit
in sui memóriam.
Docti sacris institútis,
panem, vinum in salútis
consecrámus hóstiam.
Dogma datur Christiánis,
quod in carnem transit panis
et vinum in sánguinem.
Quod non capis, quod non vides,
animosa fírmat fides,
præter rerum órdinem.
Sub divérsis speciébus,
signis tantum, et non rebus,
latent res exímiæ.
Caro cibus, sanguis potus:
manet tamen Christus totus
sub utráque spécie.
A suménte non concísus,
non confráctus, non divísus:
ínteger accípitur.
Sumit unus, sumunt mille:
quantum isti, tantum ille:
nec sumptus consúmitur.
Sumunt boni, sumunt mali
sorte tamen inæquáli,
vitæ vel intéritus.
Mors est malis, vita bonis:
vide, paris sumptiónis
quam sit dispar éxitus.
Fracto demum sacraménto,
ne vacílles, sed meménto,
tantum esse sub fragménto,
quantum toto tégitur.
Nulla rei fit scissúra:
signi tantum fit fractúra:
qua nec status nec statúra
signáti minúitur.
Ecce panis Angelórum,
factus cibus viatórum:
vere panis filiórum,
non mitténdus cánibus.
In figúris præsignátur,
cum Isaac immolátur:
agnus paschæ deputátur:
datur manna pátribus.
Bone pastor, panis vere,
Jesu, nostri miserére:
tu nos pasce, nos tuére:
tu nos bona fac vidére
in terra vivéntium.
Tu, qui cuncta scis et vales:
qui nos pascis hic mortáles:
tuos ibi commensáles,
coherédes et sodáles
fac sanctórum cívium.
Amen. Allelúja.
