Vespers (OF) this evening:
Veterem hominem cum actibus suis nos exspoliare concede.

Do you mean "concede" cum Infinitivo, Father?
What do we want to pillage from the old man and his actions?
Of course it's possible that one of the actus of the vetus homo was good latinity.
Concede with infinitive is within ecclesiastical Latin.
What worried me was 'suis' when there is no reflexivity. I wondered whether it was composed in French (avec ses ...)and then carelessly put into Latin. Perhaps, however, it is OK. Kennedy quotes Livy as writing 'suis flammis delete Fidenas'.
