¶The .xiii. chapiter treateth howe matyns or laudes shalbe sayd vpon the feryall dayes.
UPpon feryall dayes / this wise shall mateyns or laud{is} be executyd / The first psalme is Deus miseriat with out any anteme / which psalme shalbe songe tretably as vp∣pon the sonday / that all the couent may cōme to the begyn∣nynge of Miserere / whiche muste nexte be songe with an anteme / After the whiche psalme / other .ii. psalmes muste be songe / after the custom / that is to say / vppon the monday Verba mea: & Dixit iniustus / vppō the twisday Iudica me deus and Miserere the .ii. vppon the wednesdaye Exaudi deus orationem meam cum deprecor and Te decet / vppon the thursday Domine deus salutis and dn̄e Refugium / vp∣pon the Fryday Notus in iudea and Bonum est confiteri / vppon the saterdaye. Domine exaudi orationem meā auri∣bus percipe. And Audite celi que loquar / whiche psalme shallbe deuyded in two: with .ii. gloria patri. For vppon o∣ther dayes / euery canticle of the prophetes that belongeth to the daye / shalbe songe as the churche of Rome syngeth. That is to saye / vppon Mondaye the canticle / Confitebor vppon tuysdaye Egodixi / vppon wednesdaye / Exultauit / vppon thursday Cātemus / vppon fryday Domine audiui.
After this folowith Laudate dn̄m de celis / then a chapiter without boke of the appostle / an ympue and a versicle / be∣nedictus with an anteme / than kyrieleyson and the preces / and so it is thende / But at the ende of euery matyns or lau∣des and euensong: a pater noster shalbe sayde alowde of the prioresse / so that all the quere may here it and that for thex∣chuenge of dissencions and debates / malices / greues / and grudges the whiche be wonte often tymes to sprynge / by cause that the mynchins monisshed throwgh the promyse of the peticion of the pater noster / wherin they say. Goode lorde forgiue vs our trespas as we forgyue other / may pur∣ge theym selfe from the same faute. In all other howres of diuine seruice there shall no more be sayd alowde of the pa∣ter noster / but Et ne nos / so that all the quere may answere Sed libera nos.
