Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Publications of the Catholic Truth Society, 1895, Vol. 25
Here we have in the Missal five prayers, the T e z'gitur, the Memento Of the living, the Communi cantes, the Hanc zgz'tur, and the Quam oblatz'onem. In the new Book the first is expanded into a long prayer for the whole state Of the Church, for the King, the Council, all bishops, pastors, and curates, and the people under their charge. The words of the Missal, We humbly pray and beseech Thee to receive these gifts, these Offerings, these holy, unde filed sacrifices, are changed into We humbly beseech Thee most mercifully to receive these our prayers. The mention Of persons by name in the Memento is omitted; but there is a prayer for the congregation, the words Of the Missal, for whom we offer unto Thee, or who are Offering unto Thee, the sacrifice Of praise, being changed into, which is here assembled in Thy Name to celebrate the corn memoration Of the most glorious Death Of Thy Son. The Communz'cantes no longer expresses the com munion Of saints, with a petition that we may be helped by their merits and prayers, but gives most high praise and hearty thanks for the wonderful grace and virtue, declared in all Thy saints, from the beginning Of the world, and prays that we may follow their example. After this, in the new Service, comes the commemoration Of the dead, placed by the revisers of the liturgy before the consecration.
