# Standard de-Communi commemoration for common-of-a-virgin (`[Ant 2]`+`[Versum 2]` # from the reference engine's Commune files -- the tags actually used for # a mere commemoration, confirmed against this exact category via an # independently live-verified precedent elsewhere in this app). st-gertrude has # no proper antiphon of his/her own in the source (a plain "vide C..." # reference), so this reuses the Common's own text, same as every other # saint of this category with nothing proper. Collect is the saint's own # real proper (st-gertrude-collect.yml), unchanged. id: st-gertrude-commemoration text: la: | Ant. Símile est regnum cælórum * hómini negotiatóri quærénti bonas margarítas: invénta una pretiósa, dedit ómnia sua, et comparávit eam. V. Diffúsa est grátia in lábiis tuis. R. Proptérea benedíxit te Deus in ætérnum. Orémus. Deus, qui in corde beátæ Gertrúdis Vírginis jucúndam tibi mansiónem præparásti: ipsíus méritis et intercessióne; cordis nostri máculas cleménter abstérge, et ejúsdem tríbue gaudére consórtio. Per Dóminum nostrum Jesum Christum, Fílium tuum: qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitáte Spíritus Sancti, Deus, per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum. R. Amen. en: | Ant. The kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchantman * seeking goodly pearls, who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it. V. Grace is poured into thy lips. R. Therefore God hath blessed thee for ever. Let us pray. O God, Who didst make unto thyself a pleasant dwelling-place in the heart of thy blessed hand-maiden Gertrude, be Thou entreated for the same thy servant's sake, and by her prayers, to purge away in thy mercy all defilement from our hearts, and to grant us one day to rejoice with her in thy presence. Through Jesus Christ, thy Son our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. R. Amen. status: la: verified en: verified
