    Orémus.
    Deus, qui, ad evangelizándum paupéribus et ecclesiástici órdinis decórem
    promovéndum, beátum Vincéntium apostólica virtúte roborásti: præsta,
    quǽsumus; ut, cujus pia mérita venerámur, virtútum quoque instruámur
    exémplis.
    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.
    O God, Who didst make blessed Vincent strong with the strength of an Apostle, to
    preach the Gospel to the poor, and to adorn the clergy of thy Church, grant, we
    beseech thee, that we who worshipfully recall his godly and worthy conversation,
    may also order our own goings upon the mighty example of his good life.
    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.
