Evening prayers for the memorial of Abbots of Cluny chanted by the monks of Portsmouth Abbey. Odo arose full of the Holy Spirit, and renewed the beauty of the monastic Order throughout the world, alleluia. Maiolus, overflowing with charity and with grace, and emulating the holiness of the angels, was lifted high above men in virtue, alleluia. Odilo showed wondrously what was the charity of his heart, who, while pitying sufferings of the faithful departed, yearly decreased them by a sweet refreshment, alleluia. When blessed Hugh was about to expire on the day of the sacred rites of the great Sabbath (Holy Saturday), he greeted the new light of the Paschal Candle, earnestly praying with sighs that he might happily reach the promised land, alleluia.
