The Roman Missal: Masses for the Dead (English)

Part of Church Orders

In historical use by: Catholic (the Roman Rite, in the Tridentine form used until the liturgical reform of the 1960s) — The Mass for the Dead (the Requiem Mass) of the Roman Rite, in the English of F. C. Husenbeth's 1853 Missal for the use of the Laity: the Mass for All Souls with the Dies irae, the Masses for a death or burial and for an anniversary, the Common Mass for the Dead and prayers for a pope, a man, a woman or a parent. A liturgical text of the Catholic Church, not scripture: its Epistles and Gospels 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 post-Vatican II reform; the Church has since revised the rite. English only for now; the Latin is to be added.

This is the English only; the Latin of the chants and prayers is to be added. The words in square brackets are the Missal's own headings and directions.
