The Sarum Missal selected for translation in these volumes is the folio printed edition of (f526> A perfect copy of it may be seen in two of our largest public libraries, under the following (present) press- marks : Oxford, Bodleian Library, Gough Missals, 23 ; Cambridge, University Library, Vel. A. 52. 3. There are three other copies known, one in the Chapter Library at York ; one at Maynooth College ; and one (imperfect) the property of the late F. H. Dickinson, Esq. There is not a copy in the British Museum, where, however, there is a nearly perfect copy of the very similar folio edition of the Sarum Missal printed by Regnault at Paris in 1531. The only modern reprint of the Sarum Missal (Burnt- island, 1861-83) is a reprint of the 1526 edition." It was therefore, obviously, the most convenient edition to take from which to make the present translation. It is desirable to give a description of its arrangement, and an outline of its contents, especially as its scheme of signatures and foliation (not pagination) is complicated, and not at all clear for purposes of reference. References to pages in the present reprint cannot be given here, because this Introduction is being prefixed to the first volume before the whole of the text of both volumes has been set up ; but such pages will for the most part be easily found by reference to Indexes 2 and 3.

  • The Antiphonary of Bangor and Its Musical Implications
    The Antiphonary of Bangor and its Musical Implications by Helen Patterson A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Music University of Toronto © Copyright by Helen Patterson 2013 The Antiphonary of Bangor and its Musical Implications Helen Patterson Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Music University of Toronto 2013 Abstract This dissertation examines the hymns of the Antiphonary of Bangor (AB) (Antiphonarium Benchorense, Milan, Biblioteca Ambrosiana C. 5 inf.) and considers its musical implications in medieval Ireland. Neither an antiphonary in the true sense, with chants and verses for the Office, nor a book with the complete texts for the liturgy, the AB is a unique Irish manuscript. Dated from the late seventh-century, the AB is a collection of Latin hymns, prayers and texts attributed to the monastic community of Bangor in Northern Ireland. Given the scarcity of information pertaining to music in early Ireland, the AB is invaluable for its literary insights. Studied by liturgical, medieval, and Celtic scholars, and acknowledged as one of the few surviving sources of the Irish church, the manuscript reflects the influence of the wider Christian world. The hymns in particular show that this form of poetical expression was significant in early Christian Ireland and have made a contribution to the corpus of Latin literature. Prompted by an earlier hypothesis that the AB was a type of choirbook, the chapters move from these texts to consider the monastery of Bangor and the cultural context from which the manuscript emerges. As the Irish peregrini are known to have had an impact on the continent, and the AB was recovered in ii Bobbio, Italy, it is important to recognize the hymns not only in terms of monastic development, but what they reveal about music.

  • Votive Mass of Blessed Michael Mcgivney Diocesan Priest And
    Votive Mass of Blessed Michael McGivney Diocesan Priest and Founder of the Knights of Columbus Blessed Michael McGivney, Priest He was born on August 12, 1852, in Waterbury (Connecticut) of Irish immigrant parents and baptized there on August 19 in St. Peter’s Church (predecessor to what is today the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception). Ordained priest on December 22, 1877, he was assigned to St. Mary’s Church, New Haven, where his remarkable ability to relate to all people of every social, economic and religious background became apparent. In 1882, he founded the Knights of Columbus, a fraternal benevolent association that offered spiritual and apostolic direction to Catholic men. He died of tuberculosis on August 14, 1890, while Pastor of St. Thomas’ Church in Thomaston (Connecticut) and was beatified on October 31, 2020, in Hartford (Connecticut). Father Michael McGivney was beatified on October 31, 2020, during a Mass at the Cathedral of Saint Joseph in the Archdiocese of Hartford, Conn., where an apostolic letter from Pope Francis was proclaimed, declaring that Father McGivney “henceforth be given the title of Blessed and that his liturgical memorial be kept each year on 13 August, in those places laid down by the norm of law.” A step in the process of canonization, beatification is meant primarily for devotion and veneration of the blessed within a local diocese — in this case, the Archdiocese of Hartford, in which Michael McGivney was born, served as a priest, founded the Knights of Columbus, and died. Not until a candidate for sainthood is canonized are devotion and veneration extended to the entire Church.

  • Sung Matins Sung Matins
    The Parish of Saint Mary in Palms An Anglo-Catholic parish of the Episcopal Church Sung Matins Sung Matins The Offciant begins the service with this or some other appointed sentence of Scripture. Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Confession of Sin Then the Offciant says to the people Dearly beloved, we have come together in the presence of Almighty God our heavenly Father, to set forth his praise, to hear his holy Word, and to ask, for ourselves and on behalf of others, those things that are necessary for our life and our salvation. And so that we may prepare ourselves in heart and mind to worship him, let us kneel in silence, and with penitent and obedient hearts confess our sins, that we may obtain forgiveness by his infnite goodness and mercy. Silence is kept. Offciant and People together, all kneeling Most merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We are truly sorry and we humbly repent. For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us; that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your Name. Amen. The Priest alone stands and says Almighty God have mercy on you, forgive you all your sins through our Lord Jesus Christ, strengthen you in all goodness, and by the power of the Holy Spirit keep you in eternal life.

  • Low Requiem Mass
    REQUIEM LOW MASS FOR TWO SERVERS The Requiem Mass is very ancient in its origin, being the predecessor of the current Roman Rite (i.e., the so- called “Tridentine Rite”) of Mass before the majority of the gallicanizations1 of the Mass were introduced. And so, many ancient features, in the form of omissions from the normal customs of Low Mass, are observed2. A. Interwoven into the beautiful and spiritually consoling Requiem Rite is the liturgical principle, that all blessings are reserved for the deceased soul(s) for whose repose the Mass is being celebrated. This principle is put into action through the omission of these blessings: 1. Holy water is not taken before processing into the Sanctuary. 2. The sign of the Cross is not made at the beginning of the Introit3. 3. C does not kiss the praeconium4 of the Gospel after reading it5. 4. During the Offertory, the water is not blessed before being mixed with the wine in the chalice6. 5. The Last Blessing is not given. B. All solita oscula that the servers usually perform are omitted, namely: . When giving and receiving the biretta. When presenting and receiving the cruets at the Offertory. C. Also absent from the Requiem Mass are all Gloria Patris, namely during the Introit and the Lavabo. D. The Preparatory Prayers are said in an abbreviated form: . The entire of Psalm 42 (Judica me) is omitted; consequently the prayers begin with the sign of the Cross and then “Adjutorium nostrum…” is immediately said. After this, the remainder of the Preparatory Prayers are said as usual.

  • The Attractiveness of the Tridentine Mass by Alfons Cardinal Stickler
    The Attractiveness of the Tridentine Mass by Alfons Cardinal Stickler Cardinal Alfons Stickler, retired prefect of the Vatican Archives and Library, is normally reticent. Not so during his trip to the New York area in May [1995]. Speaking at a conference co-sponsored by Fr. John Perricon's ChistiFideles and Howard Walsh's Keep the Faith, the Cardinal scored Catholics within the fold who have undermined the Church—and in the final third of his speech made clear his view that the "Mass of the post-Conciliar liturgical commission" was a betrayal of the Council fathers. The robust 84-year-old Austrian scholar, a Salesian who served as peritus to four Vatican II commissions (including Liturgy), will celebrate his 60th anniversary as a priest in 1997. Among his many achievements: The Case for Clerical Celibacy (Ignatius Press), which documents that the celibate priesthood was mandated from the earliest days of the Church. Cardinal Stickler lives at the Vatican. The Tridentine Mass means the rite of the Mass which was fixed by Pope Pius V at the request of the Council of Trent and promulgated on December 5, 1570. This Missal contains the old Roman rite, from which various additions and alterations were removed. When it was promulgated, other rites were retained that had existed for at least 200 years. Therefore, is more correct to call this Missal the liturgy of Pope Pius V. Faith and Liturgy From the very beginning of the Church, faith and liturgy have been intimately connected. A clear proof of this can be found in the Council of Trent itself.
