PRAYER BOOK INTERLEA YES by William Palmer Ladd PRAYER BOOK INTERLEA YES by William Palmer Ladd Foreword by Massey H. Shepherd, Jr. Prayer Book Interleaves SOME REFLECTIONS ON HOW THE BOOK OF COMMON PRAYER MIGHT BE MADE MORE IN­ FLUENTIAL IN OUR ENGLISH-SPEAKING WORLD BY WILLIAM PALMER LADD LATE DEAN OF THE BERKELEY DIVINITY SCHOOL FOREWORD BY MASSEY H. SHEPHERD, JR. NEW YORK Copyright 1942, 1943, by Oxford University Press © 1957 by The Seabury Press, Incorporated 260-563-MU-3-1.5 Printed in the United States of America FOREWORD WHEN WILLIAM PALMER LADD passed through the gates of larger life, on July 1, 1941. he bequeathed to the Church in Prayer Book Interleaves a testament and a prophecy, the full import of which we are only beginning to realize. It was a pioneering work, in a form designed to reach clergy and laity alike, on the opportunity and responsibility before the Epis­ copal Church of liturgical reform within its own ranks and of leadership in the wider, ecumenical revival of liturgical life that was stirring throughout Christendom. Had it been only a pioneering effort cast in popular style, it might well have had an ephemeral effect or have been quickly superseded by writings of a more apparent thoroughness. We ]X>ssess in these papers of Dean Ladd no work of a beginner, but the mature insight of an extraordinary priest, prophet, and scholar, who knew how to distinguish the things that differ. The reader recognizes at once that he is reaping the fruit of long years of study and research, refined by pro­ found meditation and reflection, tested by practical experience with a keenly observant eye, and undergirded by a sturdy piety patient of all things except sham and pretense. These papers are not the musings of a dreamer. They are replete with very concrete suggestions. They are not proposals of passing inter­ est, but are always illustrative of basic principles. The Church may not ever acc,ept some of his detailed projects of liturgical usage and adaptation. The Church can and must, however, strive to measure up to his ideals of reality, relevance, and fit­ ness in the practice of corporate worship. For in these matters we know that Dean Ladd speaks to our conscience the truth. iii IV FOREWORD When Dean Ladd wrote these papers the Fascist powers were rushing the world into the bloodiest war in history. The Dean was one of the few churchmen who foresaw from the beginning the tragedy that would engulf mankind. Yet he was serene and confident that a book on worship was not out of place at the time. He knew that the world would undergo revo­ lutionary social changes that would make the aims of the Liturgical Movement all the more needful for its healing and reconciliation. But if he had lived to our present hour, he would doubtless have been astonished to behold how rapidly his prophecies would begin to be fulfilled-see, for example, the brief notes in his chapter 'The Next 150 Years.' In the Roman Catholic Church, where the Liturgical Movement has had the most intelligent and persistent leader­ ship, the progress of liturgical reform in the past two decades has been, to say the least, miraculous. The Calendar and Missal are in process of revision in ways that would have delighted the Dean's heart. The Easter Vigil has been re­ stored to its proper observance. Most of the Roman Ritual is now allowed in the vernacular. A new text of the Psalter, critical in scholarship and intelligible in rendering, has been provided for the Breviary. The celebration of evening masses, begun during the war, to increase opportunities of lay partici­ pation in the Sacrament, has developed with surprising popu­ larity. Vernacular versions of the Bible, based upon im­ peccable scholarship, have been encouraged and fostered. Much of this vast reform has been stimulated by the annual Liturgical Weeks now held in most countries. Since 1951, the. papacy has permitted its outstanding liturgical scholars to meet in annual international conferences on the liturgy to advise and discuss projects of reform. The first of these was held at the Abbey of Maria Laach-a monastery FOREWORD v where Dean Ladd had many friends who helped him become conversant with the pioneering liturgical scholarship in pre­ war Germany. He would have rejoiced to witness its survival, and continuing influence tbrough the trying years of war and reconstruction. One of Dean Ladd's passionate convictions concerned the centrality of the liturgy as a focus for ecumenical endeavor. This conviction is also winning acceptance. Since the forma'" tion of the World Council of Churches at Amsterdam in 1948, its several commissions on ways of worship have made notable progress in study and discussion- along these lines. Prejudices are being overcome, and the various denominations are more ready to admit that the impoverishment and one­ sidedness of much of their practice of worship are real barriers to Christian unity. He would have seen an amazing confirma­ tion of his principles in the way the liturgy, as also the episco­ pate, has become a vitally cohesive factor in the experiment in Christian reunion of the Church of South India. In our coun­ try, he would have been encouraged to witness the new liturgi­ cal service books put forth by the Presbyterian and Lutheran Communions. In the Anglican Communion, progress has been no less real, even if less spectacular. The spread of the 'parish communion' as the norm of parochial worship on Sundays has made no­ table advances; and in our American Church it has been closely linked with a program of Christian Education through­ out the Church touching its total membership. Prayer Book revision has been taken up anew in many Anglican prov­ inces-completed in South Africa, well on the way in India, Japan, and Canada. It will be a major object of dis­ cussion at the Lambeth Conference in 1958. The Prayer Book Studies, inaugurated by the Standing Liturgical Com- vi FOREWORD mission of the American Church in 1950, have aroused in­ creasing interest among both clergy and laity. It would be fruitful to compare these proposals, especially in the Study on the Eucharist, with the suggestions offered by Dean Ladd throughout his book. The Hymnal 1940 only came into use after the Dean's death. It h<rS profoundly affected the pattern of church music in our parishes, and greatly promoted congregational sing­ ing of simple service music such as Dean Ladd so insistently favored. There has been much new church building, and more readiness to experiment with contemporary styles and methods of construction. Where Dean Ladd in 1940 could point to but one notable example of bold experi­ ment (see his chapter, 'Ex Occidente Lux'), he could now list by the dozens the parish churches that would no longer deserve the name of St. Obsoletus. And in these churches, as in others, new patterns of ceremonial-free­ standing altars, offertory processions, restoration of Holy Baptism as a public rite-are bringing renewed awareness of the corporate principle in liturgical worship. It is good therefore that Dean Ladd's testament is now being made available once more to the Church, and to that younger generation that did not know him face to face. For at an appropriate time he recalled us to the true principles of our heritage, And. that was counted unto him for righteousness, among all posterities for evermore. MASSEY H. SHEPHERD, JR. Berkeley, California Purification, 1957 PREFACE My INTEREST in the important subject discussed in this little book has been long-standing, as many of myoid Berkeley students will testify. But, owing to various time-consuming tasks in connection with my administrative work at the School (of which my friends have been well aware), it has been impossible until recently to give the time to this subject which its very great importance de­ serves. And it was only three years ago, when the Reverend W.B. Spofford, editor of The Witness, requested me to contribute a column every other week to his paper, that I was able to begin writing the little papers here reprinted. I had in mind to write many additional Interleaves, but reasons of health demand that I leave the collection to stand as it is. All the Interleaves as they appeared are here reprinted, although it has been necessary to make some slight alterations and adaptations; unfortunately it has not been possible to avoid much repetition. To this collection I have added a few short papers published elsewhere during this period. In preparing the Interleaves to appear in book form I am in­ debted to many helpers-questioners and correspondents who have read them as they appeared, to my efficient and faithful sec­ retary, Elizabeth B. Raftery, to'my students, and to my assistant, the Reverend C.K.Myers. Above all lowe !\ debt of gratitude to my devoted wife, who has helped me to prepare the final manu­ script for the press, in which she has had the able assistance of my friend and pupil, the Reverend Massey H. Shepherd. My wife has also prepared the index. My hope is that the moderate price at which the publishers have been able to issue this little volume will increase the number of readers among that group who have the liturgical destiny of PREFACE the Church in their hands, i.e. the parish clergy; and that they will seriously consider the facts and ideas here set forth. W.P.LADD Berkeley Divinity School, New Haven Juns 1941 My husband left a large number of notes in preparation for Interleaves which he had hoped to write.

  • A Comparison of the Two Forms of the Roman Rite
    A Comparison of the Two Forms of the Roman Rite Mass Structures Orientation Language The purpose of this presentation is to prepare you for what will very likely be your first Traditional Latin Mass (TLM). This is officially named “The Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite.” We will try to do that by comparing it to what you already know - the Novus Ordo Missae (NOM). This is officially named “The Ordinary Form of the Roman Rite.” In “Mass Structures” we will look at differences in form. While the TLM really has only one structure, the NOM has many options. As we shall see, it has so many in fact, that it is virtually impossible for the person in the pew to determine whether the priest actually performs one of the many variations according to the rubrics (rules) for celebrating the NOM. Then, we will briefly examine the two most obvious differences in the performance of the Mass - the orientation of the priest (and people) and the language used. The orientation of the priest in the TLM is towards the altar. In this position, he is facing the same direction as the people, liturgical “east” and, in a traditional church, they are both looking at the tabernacle and/or crucifix in the center of the altar. The language of the TLM is, of course, Latin. It has been Latin since before the year 400. The NOM was written in Latin but is usually performed in the language of the immediate location - the vernacular.

  • Praying the Liturgy of the Hours
    Praying the Liturgy of the Hours The Liturgy of the Hours, also known as the Divine Office or the Work of God (Opus Dei), is a beautiful and ancient tradition in the Church marking the hours of each day and sanctifying the day with prayer. It is not reserved for clerics and religious (although they take vows to say it), but can also be prayed by the lay faithful. In fact, the Second Vatican Council highly encouraged the laity to “recite the divine office [especially Morning and Evening Prayer-the Major hours], either with the priests, or among themselves, or even individually” (Sacrosanctum Concilium, 100). The Hours are a meditative dialogue on the mystery of Christ, using scripture and prayer. The foundation of the prayer is simple – praying the Psalms – but in practicality can be difficult. If one chooses to purchase a physical breviary (the book that contains the Liturgy of the Hours, it can be challenging – especially if no one is there to show you what to do. However, after an initial introduction to praying the Liturgy of the Hours, it becomes much easier and soon it will be like clockwork. There are two main forms of the breviary. You can purchase a four-volume set entitled The Liturgy of the Hours from the Catholic Book Publishing. You can usually purchase for as low as $155. However, you can also purchase one volume at a time: This four-volume set contains prayers for all the hours of the day: Office of Readings (Major Hour); Lauds or Morning Prayer (Major Hour); Daytime Prayer (minor hour(s)-one or more of Terce (Midmorning), Sext (Midday), or None (Midafternoon); Vespers (Major Hour); and Compline or Night Prayer.

  • Milestones in Publishing the Spanish and Portuguese Prayer Book in London
    MILESTONES IN PUBLISHING THE SPANISH AND PORTUGUESE PRAYER BOOK IN LONDON By Dr Roy Shasha, Jerusalem – August 2020 Introduction The year 2020 marks the publication of the first new British edition of the Spanish and Portuguese prayer book in over 100 years. This achievement represents the culmination of many years of planning, a major re-editing of the text and the preparation of a new translation by a small body of dedicated professional staff and a larger number of equally dedicated volunteers. Therefore, this is perhaps an appropriate moment for us to stand back and view this achievement within its historical context. An excellent brief history of the printing of the Spanish and Portuguese prayer book was written by Hakham Gaster in the introduction to his edition of the prayer book, and the writer wishes to acknowledge his debt to this important piece of work. However, the intention and scope of this work is quite different to that of Dr Gaster in a number of respects. 1. We have attempted to list all Spanish and Portuguese prayer books planned, printed, or edited in London, including a number that were not authorised by the Mahamad and one that was written but not published. Also included are all the known Spanish translations of the text prepared in London. 2. Each volume seen has been described in a precise bibliographical fashion, and as far as possible not only reprints, but also bibliographical variants have been noted. 3. Each edition has been placed wherever possible in a historical context. A brief biography of each editor or translator has been included, together with information as to how the books were distributed.

  • The Roman Missal: the Order of Mass — a Guide for Composers
    The Roman Missal The Order of Mass — A Guide for Composers DRAFT TEXT This document is being prepared to support the eventual publication of the English and Welsh edition of the Roman Missal 3rd edition. It will not be finalised until the English translation has received approval. At that the approved texts for the Order of Mass will be inserted together with any further information about the provision of music in the new edition. Until that time this document is offered for comment and as an indication of future guidance. Introduction The publication of the third edition of the Missale Romanum in 2002 and the subsequent translation into the vernacular offers an opportunity to both evaluate current musical settings for the Mass and provide guidance to composers in the future. This guide for composers highlights the provision for music in the Order of Mass in the Roman Missal. It brings together the core texts of the liturgy for musical setting as a reference and recommends best practice. This guide does not cover: the rites of Liturgical Year, celebrations of Sacraments and Funerals or the provision of hymns though many of the principles described will apply. This document is arranged in two parts. The Introduction is divided into sections on the Ministry of the Composer and general principles about the setting of liturgical texts and music for the liturgy. The second part is a description of the Order of Mass with details of both the liturgical and musical issues affecting each part. The Ministry of the Composer Composers, filled with the Christian spirit, should feel that their vocation is to develop sacred music and increase its store of treasures.

  • Dialogue Mass
    DIALOGUE MASS Rev Edward Black As must surely be the case with many readers of The Remnant, I have followed the series of articles on the Dialogue Mass under the title ”Debating The Relevant Issues” with increasing bemusement. In what sense is the question of the Dialogue Mass relevant to us and where is this debate going? The extremely detailed article of Mr Tofari was certainly reminiscent of the content and style of the liturgical reformers of the 1950s and it is not surprising that it should have evinced the alarmed response of Mr Dahl. Are there really any traditional Catholics ready to repeat the painful experiences of 50 years ago? Mr Tofari’s article seems to indicate that he, at least, is one. Although he rightly states that Dialogue Mass is not a matter of doctrine but of praxis, he nevertheless also states that it is an important question. Indeed it is. Silence and sound are mutually exclusive. If his assertion is ever conceded in practice that a single person who decides to avail himself of making the responses at Mass has every right to do so then it spells the final end of what was once the universal and exclusive practice of the Western Church for more than 1000 years. Although this is an important matter, it is likewise a tiresome one — for it seems that every traditional institution and practice must be permanently placed in a position of self — defence and called upon at any time to justify itself. The standard procedure of the liturgical reformers has always been to appeal to the practice of the early Church, ignoring the greater part of her history until the 20th century, (save for the purposes of ridiculing it), in order to justify their innovations.
