    Da, quǽsumus, omnípotens Deus: ut, qui beátæ Catharínæ Vírginis tuæ natalícia cólimus; et ánnua solemnitáte lætémur, et tantæ virtútis proficiámus exémplo.
    Per Dóminum nostrum Jesum Christum, Fílium tuum: qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitáte Spíritus Sancti, Deus, per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum.
    R. Amen.

    Let us pray.
    Grant, we beseech thee, O Almighty God, that we which do keep the birthday of thy blessed Virgin Katharine, and do year by year renew her memorial with solemn gladness in thy presence, may likewise be conformed to the pattern of her saintly walk with thee.
    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.
