DIVINUM OFFICIUM Antiphon

Antiphona ad Magnificat

Tuesday of Rogation Days

The Magnificat antiphon for Rogation Tuesday Vespers: 'I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again I leave the world, and I go to the Father' (John 16:28). This summary of salvation history anticipates the Ascension, when Christ's departure enables the Spirit's coming.

LATINE
Exivi a Patre, et veni in mundum: iterum relinquo mundum, et vado ad Patrem, alleluia.
ENGLISH
I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again I leave the world, and I go to the Father, alleluia.
