Strinxerunt corporis membra - St Lawrence No 3

R. Strinxérunt / córporis membra posita super cratículam: † ministrántibus prunas insúltat Levíta Christi: * Beáte Laurénti, Martyr Christi, intercéde pro nobis.
V. Mea nox obscurum non habet, sed ómnia in luce claréscunt.
R. Beáte Laurénti, Martyr Christi, intercéde pro nobis.
R. They laid him upon the grating, and stretched out his limbs. Christ's Levite mocked them that brought the live coals. * O Lawrence, blessed witness for Christ plead for us!
V. The darkness is no darkness to me, but the night is all as clear as the morning, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.
R. O Lawrence, blessed witness for Christ plead for us
