This day is also commonly known as Spy Wednesday in rememberance of Judas' betrayal of Jesus, which is the Gospel appointed for Mass on this day.
The Collect
O Lord God, whose blessed Son our Savior gave his back to
the smiters and hid not his face from shame: Grant us grace
to take joyfully the sufferings of the present time, in full
assurance of the glory that shall be revealed; through the same
thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with
thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
