# Matins nocturn content for Pentecost Sunday itself (temporalId
# pentecost-sunday). Sourced from Tempora/Pasc7-0.txt (Latin) /
# English/Tempora/Pasc7-0.txt.
#
# Same structural note as easter-sunday.yml: Pentecost's own [Rule] is
# also "1 nocturn" (Duplex I classis cum Octava — straight to Te Deum
# after Lectio3), but Lectio1-3 carry real content, just compressed into
# one nocturn rather than the usual three. See easter-sunday.yml's header
# for the full explanation of why this is authored as `nocturn: 1` despite
# this app's own `threeNocturns` rule still rendering 3 nocturns for every
# Sunday.
#
# Lectio1 carries real homily prose after its bare Gospel incipit (John
# 14:23-31, "Et réliqua") — St. Gregory the Great's own homily (30th on
# the Gospels) begins within Lectio1 itself, same pattern used throughout
# this sweep. Combined Lectio1's homily portion (incipit dropped) with
# Lectio2-3 into one reading. Responsory: Lectio1's own (Responsory1, "Cum
# compleréntur dies Pentecóstes") — the only nocturn-proper responsory
# transcribed in the source (Responsory2 exists but Responsory3 does not;
# the office runs straight to the Te Deum).

        Libet, fratres caríssimi, evangélicæ verba lectiónis sub brevitáte transcúrrere, ut post
        diútius líceat in contemplatióne tantæ solemnitátis immorári. Hódie namque Spíritus Sanctus
        repentíno sónitu super discípulos venit, mentésque carnálium in sui amórem permutávit, et foris
        apparéntibus linguis ígneis, intus facta sunt corda flammántia; quia dum Deum in ignis visióne
        suscepérunt, per amórem suáviter arsérunt. Ipse namque Spíritus Sanctus amor est: unde et
        Joánnes dicit Deus cáritas est. Qui ergo mente íntegra Deum desíderat, profécto jam habet, quem
        amat. Neque enim quisquam posset Deum dilígere, si eum quem díligit, non habéret.


        Sed ecce, si unusquísque vestrum requirátur an díligat Deum: tota fidúcia et secúra mente
        respóndet, Díligo. In ipso autem lectiónis exórdio audístis quid Véritas dicit: Si quis díligit
        me, sermónem meum servábit. Probátio ergo dilectiónis, exhibítio est óperis. Hinc in epístola
        sua idem Joánnes dicit: Qui dicit: Díligo Deum, et mandáta ejus non custódit, mendax est. Vere
        étenim Deum dilígimus et mandáta ejus custodímus, si nos a nostris voluptátibus coarctámus.
        Nam qui adhuc per illícita desidéria díffluit, profécto Deum non amat: quia ei in sua voluntáte
        contradícit.


        Et Pater meus díliget eum, et ad eum veniémus, et mansiónem apud eum faciémus. Pensáte, fratres
        caríssimi, quanta sit ista dígnitas, habére in cordis hospítio advéntum Dei. Certe, si domum
        nostram quisquam dives aut prǽpotens amícus intráret, omni festinántia domus tota mundarétur,
        ne quid fortásse esset, quod óculos amíci intrántis offénderet. Tergat ergo sordes pravi
        óperis, qui Deo prǽparat domum mentis. Sed vidéte quid Véritas dicat: Veniémus, et mansiónem
        apud eum faciémus. In quorúmdam étenim corda venit, et mansiónem non facit: quia, per
        compunctiónem quidem, Dei respéctum percípiunt, sed tentatiónis témpore hoc ipsum quo
        compúncti fúerant, obliviscúntur; sicque ad perpetránda peccáta rédeunt, ac si hæc mínime
        planxíssent.

        Dearly beloved brethren, our best way will be to run briefly through the words which have been
        read from the Holy Gospel, and thereafter rest for a while quietly gazing upon the solemn
        subject of this great Festival. This is the day whereon "suddenly there came a sound from
        heaven," and the Holy Ghost descended upon the Apostles, and, for fleshly minds, gave them
        minds wherein the love of God was shed abroad and, while without "there appeared unto them
        cloven tongues, like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them," within, their hearts were
        enkindled. While they received the visible presence of God in the form of fire, the flames of
        His love enwrapped them. The Holy Ghost Himself is love whence it is that John saith "God is
        love." Whosoever therefore loveth God with all his soul, already hath obtained Him Whom he
        loveth, for no man is able to love God, if He have not gained Him Whom he loveth.


        But, behold, now, if I shall ask any one of you whether he loveth God, he will answer with all
        boldness and quietness of spirit: "I do love him." But at the very beginning of this day's
        Lesson from the Gospel, ye have heard what the Truth saith: "If a man love Me, he will keep My
        word." The test, then, of love, is whether it is showed by works. Hence the same John hath
        said in his Epistle: "If a man say, I love God, and keepeth not His commandments, He is a
        liar." Then do we indeed love God, and keep His commandments, if we deny ourselves the
        gratification of our appetites. Whosoever still wandereth after unlawful desires, such an one
        plainly loveth not God, for he saith, Nay, to that which God willeth.


        "And My Father will love him, and We will come unto him, and make Our abode with him." O my
        dearly beloved brethren, think what a dignity is that, to have God abiding as a guest in our
        heart Surely if some rich man or some powerful friend were to come into our house, we would
        hasten to have our whole house cleaned, lest, perchance, when he came in, he should see aught
        to displease his eye. So let him that would make his mind an abode for God, cleanse it from
        all the filth of works of iniquity. Lo, again, what saith the Truth: "We will come unto him,
        and make Our abode with him." There are some hearts whereunto God cometh, but maketh not His
        abode therein with a certain pricking they feel His Presence, but in time of temptation they
        forget that which hath pricked them and so they turn again to work unrighteousness, even as
        though they had never repented.

Cum compleréntur dies Pentecóstes, erant omnes páriter in eódem loco, allelúja: et súbito factus est sonus de cælo, allelúja, * Tamquam spíritus veheméntis, et replévit totam domum, allelúja, allelúja.\nV. Dum ergo essent in unum discípuli congregáti propter metum Judæórum, sonus repénte de cælo, venit super eos.\nR. Tamquam spíritus veheméntis, et replévit totam domum, allelúja, allelúja."
      en: "R. When the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place, alleluia, and suddenly there came a sound from heaven, alleluia, * as of a mighty rushing wind, and it filled all the house, alleluia, alleluia.\nV. Where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, there suddenly came upon them a sound from heaven.\nR. As of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house, alleluia, alleluia."
