Following is an extract from the Book of Dimma. An early Irish Book written by one named Dimma, whom is attributed to have lived in the 7th century. The following is an extract of the Mass of the Sick, part of the order of communion. I will be posting more of the Book of Dimma in the near future.
Libera nos, domine, ab omni malo, et custodia nos semper in omni bono, Christe Jesu, auctor omnium bonorum, qui regnas in saecula.
Pax et caritas domini nostri ihesu christi sit semper nobiscum.
Hie pax datur ei, et dicta*.
Pax et communicatio sanctorum tuorum, christe ihesu, sit semper nobiscum. Respondit, Amen. Das ei eucharistiam dicens,
Corpus et sanguis domini nostri ihesu christi filii dei uiui conseruat animam tuam in uitam perpetuam.
Post adsumptum ait,
Agimus deo patri omnipotenti gratias quod terr[en]ae nos originis atque naturae, sacramenti sui dono in celestem uiuificauerit demotationem.
Item oratio.
Ostende nobis, domine, misericordiam. Converte nos deus salutum nostrarum, et firmare presta salutem nostrorum; qui regnas in saecula saeculorum.
Alleluia. Calicem salutaris usque invocabo.
Alleluia. Fortitudo mea usque in salutem.

Alleluia. Sacrificate sacrificium iustitiae usque in domino.
Tunc signas et dicis, Pax tecum. Benedicat tibi dominus, et custodiat te, conseruat uultum tuum ad te, ut det tibi pacem.
Respondit.
Deus, tibi gratias agimus per quem ministeria sancta celebramus, et ate dona sanctitatis deposcimus, qui regnas in saecula
Deliver us, O Lord, from all evil, and the hold of any good in us always, Jesus Christ, the Author of all good things, Who reignest unto the ages of ages.
The peace and the love of our Lord Jesus Christ be always with us.
At this point, peace is given to him, and the said *.
Peace and the fellowship of thy saints, Jesus Christ, let him be with us always. Answered, Amen. You givehim the Eucharist, saying,
The body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God preserves your soul unto lifeeverlasting.
