Rubricarius of the St Lawrence Press blog has reminded me that traditionally in England, today the Church begins the Great (or O) Antiphons, a day earlier than the Universal Church. They are quite lovely. Here is O Sapientia with my translation:
O Sapientia, quae ex ore Altissimi prodiisti, attingens a fine usque ad finem, fortiter suaviterque disponens omnia: veni ad docendum nos viam prudentiae.
O Wisdom, you who proceed from the mouth of the Most High, touching from end unto end mightily, and setting all things in order sweetly: come to teach us the way of prudence.
