Is it in the '79 as part of Rite I? We use the '28 so I am accustomed to saying "Here endeth the Epistle." (And the church responds, "Thanks be to God!", per their '79 experience.)
"Here ends the Epistle" is an alternative form approved in Rite II, which is what we do, so I was wrong, a little. OTOH, "Here endeth the Epistle" is in fact an alternative form in Rite I.
