WALKING AND SINGING WITH THE PEOPLE OF GOD
For health reasons, I walk forty to fifty minutes each morning and evening on a treadmill. The two above offices total about thirty-five minutes. Adding some of the additional options below brings the time to over forty-five minutes. The three options are interleaved by opening three tabs on the computer in front of the treadmill. With a little more dexterity, they could be interweaved on a cellphone or pad. The repetition of each psalm three time in three different formats provides a pleasing ritual experience.

* PSALM 63 * 

O God, you are my God, at daybreak I watch for you.

PSALM 62:2-9
Deus, Deus meus es tu,*   ad te de luce vígilo.





CANTICLE DANIEL 3

Bless the Lord, all his accomplishments,
  praise and above all exalt him for ever.

DANIEL 3:57-88,56
Benedícite, ómnia ópera Dómini, Dómino,*




Short Reading Romans 6:8-11

3 Know you not that all we, who are baptized in Christ Jesus, are baptized in his death?
 4 For we are buried together with him by baptism into death; that as Christ is risen from the dead by the glory of the Father, so we also may walk in newness of life.
 5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection.
 6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin may be destroyed, to the end that we may serve sin no longer.
 7 For he that is dead is justified from sin.
 8 Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall live also together with Christ:
 9 Knowing that Christ rising again from the dead, dieth now no more, death shall no more have dominion over him.
 10 For in that he died to sin, he died once; but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God:
 11 So do you also reckon, that you are dead to sin, but alive unto God, in Christ Jesus our Lord.



Short Responsory
This is the day which was made by the Lord: 
let us rejoice and be glad, alleluia.

Responsorium breve
Hæc dies quam fecit Dóminus:
 exsultémus et lætémur in ea, allelúia.





Antiphon
He began with Moses and the prophets,
 and explained to them everything
 that was written in the Scriptures about himself, alleluia.

Incípiens Iesus a Móyse et ómnibus prophétis, 
interpretabátur illis Scriptúras 
quæ de ipso erant, allelúia

BENEDICTUS

Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel,
  for he has come to his people and brought about their redemption

Benedíctus Dóminus Deus Israel,*
  quia visitávit et fecit redemptiónem plebi suæ


Gospel John 20:11-18

Gospel Luke 24:13-35 

  13 And behold, two of them went, the same day, to a town which was sixty furlongs from Jerusalem, named Emmaus.
 14 And they talked together of all these things which had happened.
 15 And it came to pass, that while they talked and reasoned with themselves, Jesus himself also drawing near, went with them.
 16 But their eyes were held, that they should not know him.
 17 And he said to them: What are these discourses that you hold one with another as you walk, and are sad?
 18 And the one of them, whose name was Cleophas, answering, said to him: Art thou only a stranger to Jerusalem, and hast not known the things that have been done there in these days?
 19 To whom he said: What things? And they said: Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet, mighty in work and word before God and all the people;
 20 And how our chief priests and princes delivered him to be condemned to death, and crucified him.
 21 But we hoped, that it was he that should have redeemed Israel: and now besides all this, today is the third day since these things were done.
 22 Yea and certain women also of our company affrighted us, who before it was light, were at the sepulchre,
 23 And not finding his body, came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, who say that he is alive.
 24 And some of our people went to the sepulchre, and found it so as the women had said, but him they found not.
 25 Then he said to them: O foolish, and slow of heart to believe in all things which the prophets have spoken.
 26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and so to enter into his glory?
 27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded to them in all the scriptures, the things that were concerning him.
 28 And they drew night to the town, whither they were going: and he made as though he would go farther.
 29 But they constrained him; saying: Stay with us, because it is towards evening, and the day is now far spent. And he went in with them.
 30 And it came to pass, whilst he was at table with them, he took bread, and blessed, and brake, and gave to them.
 31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him: and he vanished out of their sight.
 32 And they said one to the other: Was not our heart burning within us, whilst he spoke in this way, and opened to us the scriptures?
 33 And rising up, the same hour, they went back to Jerusalem:
