18 December: Exodus iii. 2, xx. 1.
O Adonai,
et dux domus Israel,
qui Moysi in igne flammae rubi apparuisti,
et ei in Sina legem dedisti:
veni ad redimentum nos in brachio extento.
O Adonai,
and Leader of the House of Israel,
who didst appear to Moses in the flame of
the burning bush,
and didst give unto him the Law on Sinai:
come and with an outstretched arm redeem us.
V. Rorate.
"Rorate caeli desuper, et nubes pluant justium . . ."
"Ye heavens, drop down from above, and let the clouds rain down the Just One."
"Rorate caeli desuper, et nubes pluant justium . . ."
