Meruit esse hostia* - St Lawrence no 8

.
R. Méruit / esse hóstia levíta Lauréntius, † qui dum assarétur, non negávit Dóminum * Et ídeo invéntus est sacrifícium laudis.
V. In cratícula pósitus Deum non negávit, et ad ignem applicátus Christum conféssus est.
R. Et ídeo invéntus est sacrifícium laudis.
V. Glória Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui Sancto.
R. Et ídeo invéntus est sacrifícium laudis.
R. The levite Lawrence merited to be a victim of Christ because when he was roasted, he did not deny the Lord: * And therefore he was found to be a sacrifice of praise.
V. When placed on the gridiron he did not deny God, and on feeling the fire he confessed Christ
R. And therefore he was found to be a sacrifice of praise
V. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost.
R. And therefore he showed himself to be a sacrifice of praise
