After this, the Mass and Office are concluded, and allare welcome to join with the Clergy and Monastics in the monastery parlor.

    On Wednesday or, if it be not possible, on Thursday, the followingReadings are to beused:The Epistle:

    Reading from the FirstEpistle of blessedPaulthe Apostle, to Timothy:Dearly beloved: I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications,

    prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for al men;For kings, and for ail that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and

    peaceable life in allgodliness and honesty.For this is good and acceptable in the Sight of God Our Saviour;Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the

    Truth.For there is One God, and One MediatorbetweenGod and men, the Man

    Christ Jesus;WhogaveHimself a Ransom for all, to be Testified in due time.Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an Apostle, (I speak the Truth

    in Christ, and lie not;) a Teacher of the Gentiles in Faith and verity.1 Tim. 2: I - 7) ^ . Thanks be to God.

    Or the following may be used in place of the above:The Epistle as keptat Hereford):

    Reading from the Epistle of blessedPaul the Apostle, to the Romans:Brethren: Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by Faith without

    the deeds of the Law. Is he the God of the Jews only? Is he not also of theGentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also;Seeing it is One Go d, Which shall justify the circumcision by Faith, and

    uncircumcision through Faith.Do we then make void the Law through Faith? Go d forbid; yea, we

    establish the Law. What sha we say then that our Father Abraham, aspertaining to the flesh, hath found?

    For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof to glory; butnot before Go d. For what saith the Scripture? Abraham,believed God, and itwas counted unto him for righteousness.

    Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but ofdebt. But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth theungodly, his Faith is counted for righteousness.Rom. 3: 28 - : 5) I . Thanks be to God.

    The Gospel:y . TheLord be with you. 1 . And with thy spirit,y . TheHoly Gospel according to Luke.

    Glorybe to Thee, O Lord..At that time: It came to pass on a certain day, that Jesus went into a ship

    with His disciples; and He said unto them, "Let us go over unto the other sideofthe lake." And they launched forth.

    But as they sailed He fell asleep; and there came down a storm of wind onthe lake; and they were filled with water, andwerein jeopardy.

    And they came to Him, and awoke Him, saying, "Master, Master, weperish." Then He arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water; andthey ceased, and there was a calm.

    And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroythe fruits of your ground; neither shall your vinecast herfruit before the time inthe field, saith the Lord ofhosts.

    And all nations shall call you blessed; for ye shall be a delightsome land,saith the Lord of hosts.

    Your words have been stout against Me, saith the Lord. Yet ye say,'Whathave we spoken so much against Thee?'

    Ye have said, 'It is vain to serve God; and what profit is it that we havekept His ordinance, and that we have walked mournfully before the Lord ofhosts? And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work wickedness are setup; yea, they that tempt God are even delivered.'

    Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to another; and the Lordhearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before Himfor them that feared the Lord, and that thought upon His Name.

    And they shall be Mine, saith the Lord of hosts, in that day when Imake up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son thatserveth him. Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and thewicked,betweenhim that serveth God and him that serveth him not.

    For, behold, the Day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all theproud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble; and the Day that comethshall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither rootnor branch. But unto you that fear My Name shall the Sun of Righteousnessarise with healing in His Wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves ofthe stall. And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under theso sof yourfeet in the day that I shall do this, saith theLord of hosts.

    Remember ye the Law of Moses My servant, which I commanded untohim inHorebfor all Israel, with thestatutesand judgments.

    Behold, I will send you Elias the Prophet before the coming of the greatand dreadful Day of the Lord;

    And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heartof the children to their fathers. saith the Lord Almighty.Mai. 3: 5 -4: 6) l. Thanks be to God.
