Deus, qui beátum Joánnem, tuo amóre succénsum, inter flammas innóxium incédere fecísti, et per eum Ecclésiam tuam nova prole fecundásti: præsta, ipsíus suffragántibus méritis; ut igne caritátis tuæ vítia nostra curéntur, et remédia nobis ætérna provéniant. Per Dóminum nostrum Jesum Christum, Fílium tuum: qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitáte Spíritus Sancti, Deus, per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum. ℟. Amen. en: | Let us pray. O God, Who didst so enkindle in thy servant John the fire of thy Divine love, that when he walked in the midst of earthly fire the flame thereof had on his body no power, and Who didst choose him for a means whereby Thou hast given unto thy Church a new family of sons, mercifully grant unto us, for his sake, that the fire of thy love may burn up in us all things that displease thee, and make us meet for thy heavenly kingdom. 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
