The Roman Missal: Holy Saturday (English)

Part of The Roman Missal

In historical use by: Catholic (the Roman Rite, in the Tridentine form used until the liturgical reform of the 1960s) — The service of Holy Saturday, in the English of F. C. Husenbeth's 1853 Missal for the use of the Laity: the new fire and Paschal candle with the Exultet, the twelve Prophecies, the Litany of the Saints, the Mass and Vespers. A liturgical text of the Catholic Church, not scripture: its Prophecies, Epistle and Gospel are readings from Scripture, but the rest is prayer. The form carried here is the one in use from the Council of Trent until the 1950s reform; the Church has since revised the rite. English only for now; the Latin is to be added.

The service of Holy Saturday, in English, as printed in the Rev. F. C. Husenbeth's Missal for the use of the Laity (London, 1853), in the form used from the Council of Trent until the liturgical reform of the 1950s: the blessing of the new fire and of the Paschal candle with the Exultet, the twelve Prophecies, the Litany of the Saints, the Mass of the Easter Vigil and its Vespers. (The blessing of the baptismal font is not printed in this book.) Easter Sunday is in a later book. This is the English only; the Latin of the chants and psalms is to be added. The words in square brackets are the Missal's own headings and directions. A liturgy of the Catholic Church, not scripture.
