Black and purple clouds at parts of the horizon but...

For the time being anyway it is yet another beautiful morning. Today's the feast of Saint Henry Emperor and Confessor ( Introibo , CE , Wiki ); in the Divino afflatu and John XXIII Calendars, anyway. The feast was put into the Roman Calendar by Urban VIII on the 13th, which is the true anniversary of his death, and I believe (there were a flurry of remembrances online of Saint Henry a couple of days ago) that the Pauline Calendar has restored his feast to that date. I hadn't realised that Dr Kwasniewski's article at Crisis the other day was an abridgement of his presentation at the Roman Forum at the beginning of the month (the summer event held this year in New York and not at Gardone, if I've kept that straight). Rorate Caeli has published the full text today (but it's at the Roman Forum site too, I think; the video is at Remnant's site ). ... The claim that Paul VI’s Missale Romanum of 1969 (the “ Novus Ordo ”) is, or belongs to, the same rite as the Miss

First thing when I finished Lauds I checked...

The Bollettino to see if the Holy See had issued the much talked about, and dreaded, emendation of Summorum Pontificum, it being the anniversary of that 2007 Apostolic Letter motu proprio datae of Benedictus XVI. Not a word. Although those people are capable of anything, even announcing the publication of such a text at three o'clock in the afternoon, if they had conceived some advantage to that. Today is the feast of Saints Cyril and Methodius. From the time of Leo XIII the feast was celebrated on the 5th (as it still is in Bohemia and Slovakia), i.e. the Octave of Saints Peter and Paul, before it was transferred to today and then to February 14 (in the Pauline Rite), the actual anniversary of Saint Cyril's death. The Introit is Sacerdótes tui, Dómine, índuant iustítiam . And the Communion is Quod dico vobis in tenebris, dícite in lúmine . While looking at the European sites (the ones that are likely to attend to any Roman fiddling with Summorum Pontificum , I mean) I no

A lovely Dawn although the clouds have flown away...

At the prospect of mid-90s+ heat later on. I console myself with the thought that perhaps this evening a thunderstorm will form; they do, perhaps twice a season. It is the feast of Saint Lawrence, Archdeacon of Rome and Martyr ( Introibo , CE , Wiki ). The Mass is Confessio et pulchritudo in conspectu eius . Ant. ad Introitum. Ps. 95, 6. Conféssio et pulchritúdo in conspéctu eius : sánctitas et magnificéntia in sanctificatióne eius. La louange et la beauté sont en sa présence : la sainteté et la magnificence dans le lieu de sa sanctification. Ps. ibid., 1. Cantáte Dómino cánticum novum : cantáte Dómino, omnis terra. The Polish composer Mikołaj Zieleński included today's Offertory in his Offertoria Totius Anni of 1611. It won't embed but is here at YouTube; the text is, again, Psalm 95, verse 6. Ant. Beátus Lauréntius dixit: Mea nox obscúrum non habet, sed ómnia in luce claréscunt. Beatus Laurentius is the 3rd antiphon in the 2nd nocturn at Matins. From the good folks a
