At Lauds · Antiphon
On the iron grate, * O God, I denied thee not; and when fire was kindled beneath me, O Christ, I confessed thee: thou hast proved my heart and hast visited me in the night season: thou hast tried me with fire, and hast found no wickedness in me.
Versicle at Lauds
℣.He hath dispersed abroad, and given to the poor.
℟.And his righteousness remaineth for ever.
Collect
Grant us, we beseech thee, Almighty God, grace to quench the flames of our sins: as thou didst endue blessed Laurence with power to overcome the fire of his torments. Through thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who with thee in the unity of the Holy Spirit, liveth and reigneth God, world without end.
℟.Amen.
