   Collect, 7th Thursday of Paschaltide

   Lord, we beseech you,
   let your Spirit powerfully pour out spiritual gifts upon us,
   so as to give us a mind for the things that are pleasing to you,
   and graciously fit us to your will.

   Collect, 1 June, Memorial of Saint Justin, Martyr

   O God, who by the folly of the Cross,
   wondrous instructed your martyr Saint Justin
   in the surpassing wisdom of Jesus Christ,
   grant, through his intercession,
   that having spurned the fraud of error,
   we may attain the stability of truth.

   1973 ICEL Collect for June 1:

   Father, through the folly of the cross
   you taught Saint Justin
   the sublime wisdom of Jesus Christ.
   May we too reject falsehood
   and remain loyal to the faith.

   For ICEL, uncommonly faithful to the original’s meaning. But devoid of Don Marco’s poetic flow. And, as usual in a second-sentence ICEL bottom line, the focus is on our own effort rather than on the intercession of Christ or the grace of God.

   That should read “wondrously instructed” in the Collect for Saint Justin. Thank you for your patience.
