Continuing my project of offering translations and versifications of four sequences appearing in the Sarum rite marking the four Sundays of the season of Advent, I present \u201cJubilemus omnes<\/em>\u201d for the fourth Sunday.<\/p>\n

My source for these Sarum sequences is Charles Buchanan Pearson, Sequences from the Sarum Missal, with English translations<\/em> (London: Bell and Daldy, 1871), though I have also consulted F[rederick] E[dward] Warren, The Sarum Missal in English<\/em> (London: A. Moring Ltd, 1911) which employs Pearson\u2019s versifications. I have also found the 2009 pdf of Fr. Anthony Chadwick\u2019s Lectionary of the Sarum Missal<\/em><\/a>\u00a0 and the digital reproduction of Walter Howard Frere, Graduale sarisburiense; a reproduction in facsimile of a manuscript of the thirteenth century, with a dissertation and historical index, illustrating its development from the Gregorian antiphonale missarum<\/em><\/a>\u00a0 to be helpful in studying this sequence.<\/p>\n

The following presents the Latin text with a slavishly literal translation by yours truly below each line:<\/p>\n

Jubilemus omnes una
\nAs one let us all rejoice<\/em>
\nDeo nostro Qui creavit omnia.
\nTo our God who has created all things<\/em>.
\nPer Quem cuncta condita sunt saecula,
\nThrough Whom all the ages were created<\/em>,
\nCaelum quod plurima luce coruscat, et diversa sidera;
\nThe sky that gleams with full light, and the various stars<\/em>;
\nSol, mundi schema, noctium decus luna, caeteraque splendentia:
\nThe sun, the center of the world-system, the moon, adornment of nights, and the rest of the glittering things<\/em>;
\nMare, solum, altum, plana, ac profunda flumina:
\nThe sea, land, heights, plains and profound depths<\/em>:
\nAeris ampla spatia, quae discurrunt aves, venti atque pluvia;
\nThe ample space of the air, where birds and winds and rainfalls fly forth<\/em>;
\nHaec simul cuncta Tibi Deo soli Patri militant
\nAll these at one accord sing out to You, God alone<\/em>,
\nNunc et in aevum sine fine per saecula; laus eorum Tua gloria;
\nNow and unto with age without end through the ages; their praise sings out your glory<\/em>;
\nQui pro salute nostra Prolem unicam
\nWho for our salvation<\/em>
\nPati in terram misisiti sine culpa; sed ob nostra delicta.
\nHave sent unto the earth your only Son to suffer without guilt of sin, but on account of ours<\/em>.
\nTe, Trinitas, precamur et corpora nostra et corda
\nWe pray you, O Trinity, that you would rule and protect<\/em>
\nRegas, et protegas; et dones pecatorum veniam.
\nOur bodies and hearts; and grant mercy to sinners<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Here is Pearson\u2019s versification of this sequence:<\/p>\n

Before the all-creating Lord
\nLet us rejoice with one accord,
\nWho made the worlds, the beaming sky,
\nThe stars that glitter variously;
\nThe sun, creation\u2019s central light,
\nThe moon which softly decks the night,
\nAll other orbs that gleam around,
\nSea lands, hills, plains, and deeps profound;
\nThe air, where fly the feather\u2019d tribes,
\nThe winds go forth, the tempest rides;
\nAll, now and ever, Thee alone
\nCeaselessly praising, Father own;
\nWho to this lower earth has sent
\nThine only Son, all innocent,
\nBringing salvation from on high,
\nFor our transgressions here to die.
\nTo Thee, blest Trinity, we pray,
\nGuide all our goings in Thy way,
\nControl our wills, our hearts revive,
\nTo our offences pardon give.<\/p>\n

In the Sarum Rite, the epistle assigned to the Fourth Sunday of Advent is the same as assigned to the Third Sunday of Advent in the Roman Rite: Philippians 4:4-7 with its ringing call to \u201crejoice in the Lord always.\u201d The opening lines of the sequence suggest that the worshiping community is fulfilling Paul\u2019s exhortation to the community in Philippi by their own singing of the sequence: \u201cJubilemus omnes<\/em>\u201d (Let us all rejoice). The gospel assigned to the Fourth Sunday of Advent in the Sarum Rite is likewise the same as that assigned as gospel to the Third Sunday of Advent in the Roman Rite [John 1:19-28], a narrative in which John identifies himself as \u201cthe voice of one crying in the wilderness\u201d to herald \u201cthe one who stands in [your] midst, whom you do not know\u201d. The Sequence does not appear to be influenced by the gospel reading, but nearly the entire composition can be seen as a response to the command of the Gradual that, in addition to the worshiper(s), \u201call flesh give thanks to [God\u2019s] holy name.\u201d Here, as in, e.g., Psalm 148, human rejoicing is placed in the context of the praise that all creation offers to its Creator, with humanity also praising God for redemption through the death of the Only-Begotten.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
