    Introductory Rite
    Hymn: "Angelorum jam Apostolus." https://gregobase.selapa.net/chant.php?id=9195
    Translation:

    Apostle to the Angles’ land
    and now the angels’ friend on high:
    as once of old, O Gregory,
    bring aid to peoples who believe.

    You spurned the glory of the world,
    the great abundance of your wealth,
    to follow humbly, as your Head,
    Christ Jesus, who himself was poor.

    Then Christ on high, the great High Priest,
    appointed you to lead his Church;
    so you were raised to Peter’s rank
    and followed him as rule and guide.

    The Sacred Scriptures in your hands
    revealed their wondrous hidden depths,
    for Truth himself was teaching you
    divine and secret mysteries.

    O holy Pontiff of renown,
    the light and honor of the Church,
    now keep from danger those you teach
    with noble precepts and decrees.

    All praise and glory be to God,
    the Father, Unbegotten Lord,
    and Christ, the Sole-begotten Son,
    one with the Spirit of them both. Amen

    Psalm 43
    Canticle: Isaiah 38v10-14, 17b-20
    Psalm 65
    Reading: Wisdom 7v13-14
    Responsory: "Let the peoples proclaim the wisdom of the saints."
