will 0736c36494 Wire seasonal hymn-doxology into every plain-default Vespers hymn
Sunday's hymn ("Lucis Creator") is the one case whose Monastic source text
carries a real "*" seasonal-substitution marker (live-checked); every other
key (Mon-Sat, Advent, Lent, Passiontide, Paschaltide) is wired the same way
anyway as a deliberate broadening beyond the source, at the user's request
("the doxology is a neat way to stay tuned in to the season... we're doing a
remix, not a copy"). Each hymn's own natural ending is split into a matching
per-annum companion file, so a season/feast with no override reproduces the
original text exactly; only Nat/Epi/Pasch/Asc/Pent/Corp/Heart and the two
feast/date overrides from the previous commit actually change anything.

Real visible effect: hymns shown during Christmastide/Epiphanytide/Corpus
Christi/Sacred Heart (none of which get a distinct seasonal hymn, so these
were always the plain weekday defaults) now pick up the right doxology
instead of a generic ending; Ascensiontide and the Pentecost octave now
diverge from the rest of Paschaltide's doxology mid-season.

# Sourced from Divinum Officium's Monastic block ("[HymnusM Quad
# Vespera]", Psalterium/Special/Major Special.txt): two substitutions
# against the base "[Hymnus Quad Vespera]" text — a word-order swap in
# stanza 3 ("Ad nóminis laudem tui" -> "Ad laudem tui nóminis") and a full
# replacement of stanza 4 — applied by hand here. Not live-query-verified
# (see TODO.md). English has no separate Monastic variant in the source.

Audi, benígne Cónditor,
Nostras preces cum flétibus,
In hoc sacro jejúnio
Fusas quadragenário.
Scrutátor alme córdium,
Infírma tu scis vírium:
Ad te revérsis éxhibe
Remissiónis grátiam.
Multum quidem peccávimus,
Sed parce confiténtibus:
Ad laudem tui nóminis
Confer medélam lánguidis.
Sic corpus extra cónteri
Dona per abstinéntiam,
Jejúnet ut mens sóbria
A labe prorsus críminum.

O kind Creator, bow thine ear
To mark the cry, to know the tear
Before thy throne of mercy spent
In this thy holy fast of Lent.
Our hearts are open, Lord, to thee:
Thou knowest our infirmity;
Pour out on all who seek thy face
Abundance of thy pardoning grace.
Our sins are many, this we know;
Spare us, good Lord, thy mercy show;
And for the honour of thy name
Our fainting souls to life reclaim.
Give us the self-control that springs
From discipline of outward things,
That fasting inward secretly
The soul may purely dwell with thee.
