Here comes the day which the Lord hath made: It destroys death. All
creatures keep a feast of joy at the resurrection of Jesus. Flowers spring up,
meadows are again clothed in their rich verdure, and birds, now that gloomy
winter is past, carol in sweet jubilation. The sun and moon, which mourned at
Jesus death, are brighter now than ever. The earth, that shook at his death and
seemed ready to fall to ruin, now puts on her richest green to greet her risen
God. Let us, therefore, be glad on this day whereon our Jesus, by his
resurrection, opened to us the way of life. Let stars and earth and sea
rejoice: Let all the choirs of the blessed in heaven give praise to the
Trinity. Amen.
