Subject: [PATCH] Switch Assumption collect to the post-1950-dogma text
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Monastic 1617 itself is inconsistent: the feast/closing octave day
render the old pre-dogma "Famulórum tuórum..." collect, but the
interior octave days (16/18/19/21) render the newer "Omnípotens
sempitérne Deus, qui Immaculátam..." collect from the 1954 Divino
Afflatu revision -- a data cross-reference slip in the reference
engine, not a deliberate rubric. vu already used one collect uniformly
across the whole octave rather than replicating the split; switch that
shared collect to the newer text per user preference.

     Orémus.
-    Famulórum tuórum, quǽsumus, Dómine, delíctis ignósce: ut qui tibi placére de áctibus nostris non valémus: Genitrícis Fílii tui Dómini nostri intercessióne salvémur:
-    Qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitáte Spíritus Sancti, Deus, per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum.
+    Omnípotens sempitérne Deus, qui Immaculátam Vírginem Maríam, Fílii tui Genetrícem, córpore et ánima ad cæléstem glóriam assumpsísti: concéde, quǽsumus; ut ad supérna semper inténti, ipsíus glóriæ mereámur esse consórtes.
+    Per eúmdem Dóminum nostrum Jesum Christum Fílium tuum, qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitáte Spíritus Sancti, Deus, per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum.
     ℟. Amen.

     Let us pray.
-    O Lord, we beseech thee, forgive the transgressions of thy servants, and, forasmuch as by our own deeds we cannot please thee, may we find safety through the prayers of the Mother of thy Son and our Lord.
-    Who with thee liveth and reigneth, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, world without end.
+    Almighty everlasting God, who hast taken body and soul into heaven the Immaculate Virgin Mary, Mother of thy Son: grant, we beseech thee, that by steadfastly keeping heaven as our goal we may be counted worthy to join her in glory.
+    Through the same Jesus Christ, thy Son, Our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end.
     ℟. Amen.
