LITURGICAL QUESTIONS.
In answer to the request made in our last number, some of our reverend friends have addressed to us several most interesting questions on Liturgical points. Owing to the great pressure this month on our limited space, and to the necessity of completing the series of decrees on the Holy Mass, we are not able to attend to them for this month. In our next issue we hope to be in a position to satisfy our respected correspondents.
DECREES ON THE HOLY MASS.
[Concluded from page 190.]
Ad §. IX. Post Consecrationem usque ad Orationem Dominicam.
1. Dum Sacerdos dicit orationem "Supplices te rogamus", et orationes ante Communionem, servandae sunt rubricae, quae jubent manus ponendas esse super altare, non intra corporale. 7. Sept. 1816 in u. Tuden, ad 35.
2. Qui in Canone Missae post consecrationem, in oratione "Nobis quoque peccatoribus", nominatur Joannes, est s. Joannes Baptista, et ideo caput est ad hoc nomen inclinandum, dum Missa dicitur aut commemoratio fit de s. Joanne Baptista; non vero quando Missa dicitur aut commemoratio fit de s. Joanne apostolo et evangelista. 27. Mart. 1824. in u. Panormit. ad 2.
