Leonine Prayers Said at end of every Low Mass

St. Martha Catholic Church 214 Brainard rd. Enfield Ct.

St. Louis IX Pray for us       

            Priest and the Soldier

           ( The Priest Hernandez speaks)
            WELL mayst thou say that these are fearful times,
                        Therefore be firm, be patient! There is strength,
                        And a fierce instinct, e'en in common souls
                        To bear up manhood with a stormy joy,
                        When red swords meet in lightning! But our task
                        Is more and nobler! We have to endure,
                       And to keep watch, and to arouse a land,
                       And to defend an altar. Think on this,
                       And gird your hearts with silent fortitude,
                       Suffering, yet hoping all things.
