    Orémus.
    Præsta, quǽsumus, omnípotens Deus: ut, qui sanctórum Mártyrum tuórum Cosmæ et Damiáni natalícia cólimus, a cunctis malis imminéntibus, eórum intercessiónibus, liberémur.
    Per Dóminum nostrum Jesum Christum, Fílium tuum: qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitáte Spíritus Sancti, Deus, per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum.
    ℟. Amen.

    Let us pray.
    Grant, we beseech thee, O Almighty God, that we who keep the birthday of thine holy Martyrs Cosmas and Damian may at their prayers be delivered from all dangers that presently hang over us.
    Through Jesus Christ, thy Son our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end.
    ℟. Amen.
