+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Wherefore, O Father, we thy humble servants
Here bring before thee Christ thy well-beloved,
All-perfect Offering, Sacrifice immortal, Spotless Oblation.
++++++++++++++++
See now thy children, making intercession
Through him our Saviour, Son of God incarnate,
For all thy people, living and departed, Pleading before thee.
