The chalice occupies the Chalice place among sacred vesselsand by a figure of speech Chalice material cup is often used as if it were synonymous with the Precious Blood itself. Chalice"is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? No reliable tradition has been preserved to us regarding the vessel used by Christ at the Last Supper. In the sixth and seventh centuries pilgrims to Jerusalem were led to believe that the actual chalice was still venerated in the church of the Holy Sepulchre, having within Chalice the sponge which was presented to Our Saviour on Calvary. Curiously enough, while Chalice of Piacenza refers to it as made of onyx, Adamnanless than a century later, describes it as a "silver cup holding the measure of a Gallic sextarius and with two opposite handles" see Geyer, Itinera, Hierosolimitana, pp. At a much later period two other vessels have been venerated as the chalice of the Last Supper. One, the sacro catino of Genoais rather a dish than a cup and Chalice made of green glass, though long supposed to be an emerald, fourteen and a half inches in diameter and of priceless value. The other, at Valencia in Spainis a cup of agate. The fact is that the Chalice tradition is untrustworthy and of late date. Chrysostom Hom. A passage of St. Jeromeentirely favour the same conclusion. But the tendency to use by preference the precious metals developed early. Augustine speaks of two golden and six Chalice chalices Chalice up at Cirta in AfricaContra Crescon. Chrysostom Chalice a golden chalice set with gems Hom. As regards shape, our Chalice information at this early period is derived from certain representations, said to be meant for Eucharistic chalices, which are found in early mosaics Chalice, sarcophagi, and other Chalice of Christian art. The general prevalence of an almost stemless, vase-shaped type with two handles, inclines us to believe Chalice a glass vessel of this Chalice discovered in the Ostrian catacomb on Chalice Via Nomentana, and Chalice preserved in the Lateran Museum, may really have Chalice a chalice. At an early Chalice it became common to Chalice the donor's name upon costly vessels presented to churches. Thus it is known that Galla Placidia d. Such goblets were sometimes known as calices literati. The earliest specimen of a chalice of whose original Chalice we can feel reasonably confident is the chalice of Chelles, preserved until the French Revolution and believed to have been wrought by, or at least to date from the time of, the famous artificer Chalice. Eligius of Noyon, who died in The material was gold, richly decorated with enamels and precious Chalice. In shape it was without handles and like a celery glass, with a very deep cup and no stem, but the cup was joined to the base by a knop, which under the name of nodus or pomellum became a very characteristic feature in the chalices of the Middle Ages. In many of the specimens described or preserved from Chalice Merovingian, Carlovingianand Romanesque periods, it is possible to make a distinction between the ordinary sacrificial chalice used by bishops and priests in the Chalice and the calices ministeriales intended for the Communion of Chalice faithful at Easter and Chalice seasons when many received. These latter chalices are of considerable size, and they are often, though Chalice always, fitted with handles, which, it is easy to understand, would have afforded additional security against accidents when the sacred vessel was put to the lips of Chalice communicant in turn. Chalice a rude and barbarous age the practical difficulties of Chalice under species of wine must have been considerable, Chalice it Chalice not wonderful that from the Carolingian Chalice onwards the device was frequently adopted of Chalice a pipe or reed known by a variety of names, fistula, tuellus, Chalice, arundo, pipa, calamus, siphon, etc. To this day at the solemn papal high Mass, the chalice is brought from the altar to the pope at his throne, and the pontiff absorbs its contents through a golden pipe. This practice also lasted down to the reformation among the Cistercians. The Chalice of the Middle Ages Of chalices Chalice than the time of Charlemagne the Chalice specimens are so few and so doubtful that generalization of any kind is almost impossible. Besides the already mentioned chalice of Chelles, now destroyed, only two of those still preserved can be referred confidently to a date earlier Chalice the year This beautiful piece of metal work exhibits an egg-shaped cup joined to a small conical base Chalice a knop. The character of the ornamentation shows clearly the predominance of Irish influences, even if it be not actually the work of an Irish craftsman. Plainer in design, but very similar Chalice form, is the chalice said to have belonged to St. If, as is possible, these words are intended to form a chronogram, Chalice yield the date Of the succeeding period, by far the most remarkable example preserved is the magnificent relic of Irish art Chalice as the Chalice of Ardagh see picturefrom the place near which it was accidentally discovered in This is a "ministerial" chalice and it has two handles. It is Chalice inches in height but as much as nine and a half inches in diameter, and the bowl is capable of containing nearly three pints of liquid. The material Chalice silver Chalice with copper, but gold and other metals have been used Chalice its wonderful ornamentation, consisting Chalice of interlacing patterns and rich enamels. An inscription Chalice very interesting ancient characters gives simply the names of the Twelve Apostlesa list of course highly suggestive of the Last Supper. The date conjecturally Chalice to this masterpiece from the Chalice of the inscription is Chalice ninth or tenth century. But in any Chalice the broadening of the cup and the firm and wide base indicate a development which is noticeable in nearly all the chalices Chalice the Romanesque period. The chalice known as that of St. Gozlin, Bishop of Toul Chalice, is still preserved in the cathedral of Nancy. In its broad, low, circular form it much Chalice the last-named chalice. Another very beautiful ministerial chalice with handles, but of Chalice date twelfth century? It may be added that although these double-handled cups of precious metal were no doubt primarily intended for the Communion of Chalice people, they were also on great Chalice used by the celebrant in the Holy Sacrifice. The fresco in the under-church of San Clemente Chalice Rome eleventh century? Clement, shows a two-handled Chalice upon the altar, and the same may be seen in the famous liturgical ivory panel of the Spitza collection Kraus, Christliche Kunst, II, 18 It is certainhowever, that the chalices commonly used for the private Masses of parish priests and monks were of a simpler character, and in the eighth, ninth and following centuries much legislation was devoted Chalice securing that chalices Chalice be made of becoming material. Chalice are mark attributed to Chalice. Boniface c. England seems to have taken the lead in this matter, and in any case the English canons may be quoted as typical of those Chalice soon afterwards were enforced Chalice. Thus the Council of Celchyth Chelsea forbade the use of chalices or patens of horn quod de sanguine suntand the canons passed in the Chalice of Edgar, under St. Dunstanenjoined that all chalices in which the "housel is hallowed" should be of molten work calic gegoten and that none should be hallowed Chalice a wooden vessel. Horn was Chalice because blood had entered into its composition. Probably, however, the most famous decree was that included in the "Corpus Juris" cap. If, however, anyone is so poor, let him at least have a chalice of pewter. The chalice must not be made of brass or copper, because it generates rust i. And let no Chalice presume Chalice say Mass with a chalice of wood or glass. This decree is traditionally attributed to a certain council of Reims Chalice, but Hefele is unable to identify it. From the eleventh century onwards sufficient chalices and representations of chalices survive to enable us to draw conclusions regarding their evolution of form. Chalice round knop, short stem, broad firm base, and wide, rather shallow cup are characteristic of the earlier period. One of the richest surviving examples is the chalice known as that of St. In the thirteenth century, while the cup of the ordinary chalice still remains broad and rather low, and Chalice and knop are circular, we find a certain development of the stem. On the other hand the cup, in a large number of examples of the fourteenth century, tends to assume Chalice conical or funnel shape, while the stem Chalice knop become angular, or prismatic in section, generally hexagonal. The base is often divided into six lobes Chalice match the stem, and the knop itself is sometimes resolved into a group Chalice studs or bosses, which in certain fifteenth-century specimens give place to a mass of areading and Chalice ornament set with figures. The stem is at the same time elongated and becomes much taller. The cup almost invariably assumes a tulip shape, which continues during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, while the Chalice greatly increases in height. With this, in Chalice seventeenth century, often went a very thin stem, or again a quite inadequate base, so that many chalices of this period leave the well-founded impression of bring either Chalice or top heavy.
