My soul doth magnify the Lord,<br>
And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.<br>
For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.<br>
For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name.<br>
And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation.<br>
He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their
hearts.<br>
He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.<br>
He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away.<br>
He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy;<br>
As he spake to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed for ever.<br>

Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Spiritui Sancto.<br>

Amen.
