Introit

Miserere mihi Domine quoniam tribulor — Psalm 31

Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am afflicted: deliver me out of the hands of my enemies, and from them that persecute me: let me not be confounded, O Lord, for I have called upon thee. Psalm. In thee, O Lord, have I hoped, let me never be confounded: deliver me in thy justice.

Collect of the Day

We beseech thee, O Lord, may the people prosper who are devoted to thee by the affection of pious devotion: that, instructed by holy actions, they may be blessed with better gifts, as they are made more pleasing in the sight of thy majesty. Through our Lord, &c.

The introit repeats Friday's (so in the missal).
