The funeral of Dom Antoine Forgeot, former abbot of Fontgombault...

Took place this morning at the Abbey, in Berry in Provence. A daughter house of Solesmes, the Abbey of Fontgombault celebrates the Traditional Rite; Clear Creek Abbey in Oklahoma is one of the daughter houses of Fontgombault. The notice at Rorate Caeli is here and at Le Salon Beige here . *** The jays have been quiet this morning although I noticed that they had taken most of the peanuts from the window sill while I was out earlier. I neglected yet again (it is gloriously cool this morning, the mid-50s it was) to lower the blinds so my guess is that this alteration in habit makes them a bit skittish; who knows, of course. The new edition of Blessed Ildefonso Schuster's Liber Sacramentorum arrived yesterday; I've been looking at random pages in the five volumes. It is in fact a reprint of the English version, of 1927 (in any case that's when the nihil obstat and imprimatur were granted at Westminster), of Arthur Levelis-Marke, whose name shows up on the Internet (af

The text of Pater Thomas SJ's sermon...

On the 21st, the anniversary of the martyrdom of King Louis XVI, given before the Absolution at the catafalque at Saint-Eugène, is copied below. It was published by Fr Maximilien-Marie at his blog, Maître-Chat Lully, here (it is the second of Pater Thomas's texts on that page). My scribbling from that Friday is here . Au Nom du Père, et du Fils, et du Saint-Esprit. Ainsi soit-il. Mes chers Frères, Plus les années qui nous séparent de l’exécution criminelle de Louis XVI s’accumulent, plus se fortifie sous nos yeux le programme révolutionnaire qui mit à bas l’Autel et le Trône, qui détruisit avec rage et systématiquement les symboles et les traditions de notre pays chrétien. La Terreur ne s’est jamais aussi bien portée. Les derniers jours, les dernières heures d’un condamné sont d’une densité à nulle autre pareille. Ne revenons pas cette fois sur des détails que chacun d’entre nous connaît et qui provoquent en nos cœurs une émotion toujours vivace. Qu’en fut-il en revanche de la der
