                      OFFICE OF B.V.M.
       St. Gertrude said to our Lord: Teach me, O my Lord, how
       I may show my devotion and love to thy blessed Mother,
       since  I  am  unable  to  recite  her  office.  Then  our  Lord
       taught  her  the  following  prayers;  and  when  she  recited
       them she seemed to see him offering his divine Heart in
       likeness  of  a  vessel  of  gold,  of  which,  when  she  had
       drunk,  she  appeared  filled  with  gladness.  Hence  she
       learned that whenever these prayers are recited, our Lord
       thus presents his Heart to the lips of his blessed Mother,
       and  that  in  the  fulness  of  her  maternal  delight  she
       graciously rewards those who recite them.

                          AT MATINS
       O
              the  tuneful  praise  which  thine  own  sweetest
              Heart gives forth, for the innocence of that most
       spotless virginity whereby thy peerless and ever-blessed
       Mother was a Virgin in her conception of thee, a Virgin
       when she brought thee forth, and ever remained a Virgin
       most inviolate after thy sacred birth; imitating thus thine
       own innocence, when in the early dawn thou wast seized
       and  bound  for  the  redemption  of  our  captive  race,  and
       buffeted and smitten, and cruelly and piteously assailed
       with contumely and manifold reproach.          114
