Saint Thomas of Aquinas, etc.
Worthy child of the Queen of virgins,
St. Thomas most chaste,
St. Thomas most patient,
Prodigy of science,
Silently eloquent,
Reproach of the ambitious,
Lover of that life which is hidden with Christ,
Fragrant flower in the garden of Saint Dominic,
Glory of the Friars Preachers,
Illumined from on high ,
Angel of the Schools,
Oracle of the Church,
Incomparable scribe of the Man-God,
Satiated with the odor of
His perfumes,
Perfect in the school ofHis Cross,
Intoxicated with the strong wine
of His charity,
Glittering gem in the cabinet
of the Lord,
Model of perfect obedience,
Endowed with the true spirit of holy poverty,
Lamb of God, Who takest away the sins of the
world,
Spare us, O Lord.
Lamb of God, Who takest away the sins of
the world,
Graciously hear us, O
Lord.
Lamb of God, Who takest away the sins of
the world,
Have mercy on us.
Oh, how beautiful is the chaste generation
with glory,
For the memory thereof is immortal.
Because it is known with God and man,
And it triumpheth crowned forever.
V. What have I in Heaven, or what do I desire
on earth!
R. Thou art the God of my
heart, and my
portion forever.
Let Us Pray.
O God, Who hast ordained that blessed Thomas
should enlighten
Thy Church, grant that through his prayers
we may practice what he taught,
through Christ Our Lord. R. Amen.
