Lesson from the first letter of St. Peter the Apostle
1 Pet 2:1-10
Beloved: Wherefore laying away all malice, and all guile, and dissimulations, and envies, and all detractions, As newborn babes, desire the rational milk without guile, that thereby you may grow unto salvation: If so be you have tasted that the Lord is sweet. Unto whom coming, as to a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen and made honourable by God: Be you also as living stones built up, a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. Wherefore it is said in the scripture: Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious. And he that shall believe in him, shall not be confounded. To you therefore that believe, he is honour: but to them that believe not, the stone which the builders rejected, the same is made the head of the corner: And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of scandal, to them who stumble at the word, neither do believe, whereunto also they are set. But you are a chosen generation, a kingly priesthood, a holy nation, a purchased people: that you may declare his virtues, who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: Who in time past were not a people: but are now the people of God. Who had not obtained mercy; but now have obtained mercy.
Léctio Epístolæ beáti Petri Apóstoli
1 Pet 2:1-10
Caríssimi: Deponéntes ígitur omnem malítiam, et omnem dolum, et simulatiónes, et invídias, et omnes detractiónes, sicut modo géniti infántes, rationábile, sine dolo lac concupíscite: ut in eo crescátis in salútem: si tamen gustástis, quóniam dulcis est Dóminus. Ad quem accedéntes lápidem vivum, ab homínibus quidem reprobátum, a Deo autem eléctum et honorificátum: et ipsi tamquam lápides vivi superædificámini, domus spirituális, sacerdótium sanctum, offérre spirituáles hóstias, acceptábiles Deo per Jesum Christum. Propter quod cóntinet Scriptúra: Ecce, pono in Sion lápidem summum angulárem, eléctum, pretiósum: et qui credíderit in eum, non confundátur. Vobis ígitur honor credéntibus: non credéntibus autem lapis, quem reprobavérunt ædificántes, hic factus est in caput ánguli, et lapis offensiónis, et petra scándali his, qui offéndunt verbo, nec credunt in quo et pósiti sunt. Vos autem genus eléctum, regále sacerdótium, gens sancta, pópulus acquisitiónis: ut virtútes annuntiétis ejus, qui de ténebris vos vocávit in admirábile lumen suum. Qui aliquándo non pópulus, nunc autem pópulus Dei: qui non consecúti misericórdiam, nunc autem misericórdiam consecúti.

Christians! to the Paschal Victim offer your thankful praises.
The Lamb the sheep redeemeth: Christ, who only is sinless, reconcileth sinners to the Father.
Death and life contended in that conflict stupendous: the Prince of Life, who died, deathless reigneth.
Speak, Mary, declaring what thou sawest wayfaring.
“The tomb of Christ who now liveth: and likewise the glory of the Risen.
Bright Angels attesting, the shroud and napkin resting.
Yea, Christ my hope is arisen: to Galilee He goeth before you.”
We know that Christ is risen, henceforth ever living: Have mercy, Victor King, pardon giving. Amen. Alleluia.
Víctimæ pascháli laudes ímmolent Christiáni.

Continuation ☩ of the Holy Gospel according to John
John 20:1-9
In that time, on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalen cometh early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre; and she saw the stone taken away from the sepulchre. She ran, therefore, and cometh to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and saith to them: They have taken away the Lord out of the sepulchre, and we know not where they have laid him. Peter therefore went out, and that other disciple, and they came to the sepulchre. And they both ran together, and that other disciple did outrun Peter, and came first to the sepulchre. And when he stooped down, he saw the linen cloths lying; but yet he went not in. Then cometh Simon Peter, following him, and went into the sepulchre, and saw the linen cloths lying, and the napkin that had been about his head, not lying with the linen cloths, but apart, wrapped up into one place. Then that other disciple also went in, who came first to the sepulchre: and he saw, and believed. For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.
Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Joánnem.
Joannes 20:1-9
In illo témpore: Una sábbati, María Magdaléne venit mane, cum adhuc ténebræ essent, ad monuméntum: et vidit lápidem sublátum a monuménto. Cucúrrit ergo, et venit ad Simónem Petrum, et ad álium discípulum, quem amábat Jesus, et dicit illis: Tulérunt Dóminum de monuménto, et nescímus, ubi posuérunt eum. Exiit ergo Petrus et ille álius discípulus, et venérunt ad monuméntum. Currébant autem duo simul, et ille álius discípulus præcucúrrit cítius Petro, et venit primus ad monuméntum. Et cum se inclinásset, vidit pósita linteámina, non tamen introívit. Venit ergo Simon Petrus sequens eum, et introívit in monuméntum, et vidit linteámina pósita, et sudárium, quod fúerat super caput ejus, non cum linteamínibus pósitum, sed separátim involútum in unum locum. Tunc ergo introívit et ille discípulus, qui vénerat primus ad monuméntum: et vidit et crédidit: nondum enim sciébant Scriptúram, quia oportébat eum a mórtuis resúrgere.

Preface
Prefatio
Easter
It is truly meet and just, right and for our salvation, at all times to praise Thee, O Lord, but more gloriously especially in this season (sed tempore Passionis)
on this night (sed octava Paschæ)
on this day when Christ our Pasch was sacrificed. For He is the Lamb Who hath taken away the sins of the world: Who by dying hath destroyed our death: and by rising again hath restored us to life. And therefore with Angels and Archangels, with Thrones and Dominations, and with all the hosts of the heavenly army, we sing the hymn of Thy glory, evermore saying:
Paschalis
Vere dignum et justum est, æquum et salutáre: Te quidem, Dómine, omni témpore, sed in hoc potíssimum (sed tempore Passionis)
hac potíssimum nocte (sed octava Paschæ)
hac potíssimum die gloriósius prædicáre, cum Pascha nostrum immolátus est Christus. Ipse enim verus est Agnus, qui ábstulit peccáta mundi. Qui mortem nostram moriéndo destrúxit et vitam resurgéndo reparávit. Et ídeo cum Angelis et Archángelis, cum Thronis et Dominatiónibus cumque omni milítia cœléstis exércitus hymnum glóriæ tuæ cánimus, sine fine dicéntes:
