Deus, qui hodiérna die beátum Henrícum Confessórem tuum e terréni cúlmine impérii ad regnum ætérnum transtulísti: te súpplices exorámus; ut, sicut illum, grátiæ tuæ ubertáte prævéntum, illécebras sǽculi superáre fecísti, ita nos fácias, ejus imitatióne, mundi hujus blandiménta vitáre, et ad te puris méntibus perveníre.

O God, Who on this day took St. Henry, thy Confessor, to the everlasting kingdom from the throne of an earthly empire; we humbly beseech thee, that as thou enabled him, protected by the abundance of thy grace, to overcome the temptations of the world, so grant that we, in emulation of him, may shun the allurements of this world and come to thee with pure hearts. 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. status: la: verified en: verified
