The Sunday next before Easter, commonly called Palm Sunday.
Psalm 110. Dixit
Dominus.
THE Lord said unto my Lord, * Sit thou
on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.
2 The Lord shall send the rod of thy
power out of Sion: * be thou ruler, even in the midst among thine enemies.
3 In the day of thy power shall thy
people offer themselves willingly with an holy worship: * thy young men come to
thee as dew from the womb of the morning.
4 The Lord sware, and will not repent,
* Thou art a Priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.
5 The Lord upon thy right hand * shall
wound even kings in the day of his wrath.
6 He shall judge among the heathen; *
he shall fill the places with the dead bodies, and smite in sunder the heads over
divers countries.
7 He shall drink of the brook in the
way; * therefore shall he lift up his head.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son *
and to the Holy Ghost.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, * world without
end. Amen.
The Collect.
ALMIGHTY and everlasting God, who, of thy tender love
towards mankind, hast sent thy Son, our Savior Jesus Christ, to take upon him
our flesh, and to suffer death upon the cross, that all mankind should follow
the example of his great humility; Mercifully grant, that we may both follow
the example of his patience, and also be made partakers of his resurrection;
through the same Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

ALMIGHTY and everlasting God, who hatest nothing that thou
hast made and dost forgive the sins of all them that are penitent: Create and
make in us new and contrite hearts, that we, worthily lamenting our sins, and
acknowledging our wretchedness, may obtain of thee, the God of all mercy,
perfect remission and forgiveness; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
