Saint Crispin and Saint Crispinian, Martyrs

Martyrdom of SS Crispin and Crispinian

Martyrdom of SS Crispin and Crispinian, central panel of tryptich, by Aert van den Bossche (fl. 1490s)

O Lord God, whose Martyrs Crispin and Crispinian laboured with their own hands and suffered all things that the Gospel might not be hindered: Grant us grace that both in deed and endurance we may be workers together with thee and thy Saints for the everlasting kingdom of thy Son; who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Ghost, ever one God, world without end. Amen.

¶ Or this:

O God, who dost inspire us to confess thy holy name by the witness of thy Martyrs Crispin and Crispinian: Grant that thy Church, encouraged by their example, may be ready to suffer fearlessly for thy cause, and to strive for the reward of thy heavenly glory; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
