O Lily of chastity, Virgin, Splendor of kings, Dymphna, Spouse of Christ! Celebrating thy holy memory, we pray earnestly that after this span of life is over, we may be united with the citizens of God’s kingdom. Hail, Virgin most beautiful! Hail, martyr most glorious! O royal Dymphna, so pleasing to Christ the King. Through the constancy of thy faith, through the power of thy prayers, lead us after death to the true joys of heaven. 
- An ancient antiphon in honor of St. Dymphna

Dómine Jesu Christe, qui, ad mystérium crucis prædicándum, sanctum Paulum singulári caritáte donásti, et per eum novam in Ecclésia famíliam floréscere voluísti: ipsíus nobis intercessióne concéde; ut, passiónem tuam júgiter recoléntes in terris, ejúsdem fructum cónsequi mereámur in cælis: Qui vivis et regnas cum Deo Patre, in unitáte Spíritus Sancti, Deus, per ómnia sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.

Lord Jesus Christ, Who didst gift Thy holy servant Paul with great love that he might preach the mystery of Thy cross, and hast been pleased that through him a new family should grow up in Thy Church, grant unto us at his prayers that upon earth we may so call thy sufferings to mind as worthily to gain the fruit thereof in heaven. Who livest and reignest with God the Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, world without end. Amen
