On excepted Feasts, non-excepted Feasts which have proper antiphons, Holy Week has special antiphons, Six ferias before Christmas have special antiphons. In Paschal time, all psalms and the canticles are recited under one antiphon. Antiphon of Benedictus Sunday antiphons are proper. Ferias throughout the year have antiphons of current feria.
Elements of a commemoration are the Antiphon of the Benedictus or the Magnificat with versicle and response. The antiphon, versicle and prayer of the commemoration at an hour should never be repetitions of others said in the same hour.
"Renounce! renounce!" he heard a voice within cry in his ears as, with much difficulty, he himself read Wolff's letter, but whatever he might cast away of all that was his, he still would fail to take up his cross as Father Benedictus required; for even as an unknown beggar he would have enjoyed this he firmly believed in Eva's love the highest earthly bliss.
A chorister was practising softly in the transept overhead. 'Twas the benedictus from one of Mozart's masses. "Benedictus qui venit in nomine Domini," he sang over and over again. Calvert could not see the singer, but the young voice floated downward, reminding him of his own boyish voice. He closed his eyes and bowed his head against the cold stone.
It was the well-known Mass or communion music of our own land, consisting of the beautiful strains of the Gloria, the Sanctus, and the Benedictus. As we came nearer, the breeze wafted us sweet incense from the altar, sandal and spice and flower and cinnamon scents. Though Moro was of a different faith, he took off his hat; so did I. The short Filipino men were dressed in white.
Amman has one of twelve months' duration; Enguin, one of twelve months'; Buchner, a case of twelve months'; Benedictus, one of fourteen months'; de Blegny, one of nineteen months'; Marteau, Osiander, and others of forty-two and forty-four weeks'; and Stark's Archives, one of forty-five weeks', living, and also another case of forty-four weeks'. An incredible case is recorded of an infant which lived after a three years' gestation.
Both the introit and communion are sung without, and the offertory with, counterpoint: the Kyrie eleison, Gradual and tract, in plain chant. The Benedictus qui venit is usually very beautiful.
Of the three millions in Rome, two millions at least were exiles for their faith, preferring to live obscure and despised in the shadow of God rather than in the desolate glare of their own infidel countries. On the fifth evening of the enrolment of novices an astonishing incident had taken place. "Benedictus Dominus!" he cried, with upraised face and shining eyes.
Ah! my friends, Heaven owed me this joy; and at length I shall give my name to a scientific discovery! That insect shall be the 'Hexapodes Benedictus." The enthusiastic savant was so happy he forgot so many miseries past and to come in riding his favorite hobby that neither Mrs. Weldon nor Dick Sand grudged him his felicitations. All this time the perogue moved on the dark waters of the river.
The women, too, and the monk AEgidius, an old Minorite, who had been watching beside the aged Brother of his order, Benedictus, and had just joined them, shed tears at his story; but Eva, from the very depths of her soul, exclaimed aloud, "Happy is he who is permitted to endure such tortures for love's sake!"
