Text of the page (random words):
n the tenor but a very ornate melisma with a repetition finally comes the closing cadence the melody of alleluia with its jubilus is joined to the last words of the verse to form the third phrase in the first part of the original an independent thought is expressed the just shall rejoice in the lord thus fully justifying the pause on the dominant after the middle cadence but b towers above the two a parts a brief survey will show the relation between the original composition and the adaptations mentioned and numbered above first part intonation laetabitur 1 caro mea 2 candor est 3 levita 4 concussum 5 solemnitas justus vere est cibus lucis laurentius est mare gloriosae middle cadence in domino et sanguis meus aeternae bonum opus et contremuit virginis florid melisma et spera 1 vere est potus qui manducat 2 et speculum sine ma 3 opera 4 terra 5 mariae ex semine closing cadence bit in eo meam carnem cu la tus est without closing cadence abrahae second part intonation et lauda 1 et bibit 2 et 3 qui per signum 4 irregular 5 ortae middle cadence buntur meum imago crucis ubi archangelus de tribu closing cadence omnes sanguinem bonitatis caecos michael descende juda third part recti corde 1 in me manet et ego in eo 2 illius 3 illuminavit 4 bat de caelo 5 clara ex stirpe david the structure is clearest in the verse laetabitur of the others verse 2 that is that of the feast of the transfiguration bears the closest resemblance the third also is good in 1 a new thought begins with the melisma that is repeated thus handicapping the effectiveness of the melody for its upward surge about which there can be no doubt in this type of alleluia is thereby weakened the third part whose melody is formed somewhat differently does not give the feeling of a finished organic whole in which all parts are attuned to one another see this post on chantblog to compare the transfiguration of our lord jesus christ august 6 candor est lucis æternæ i have not posted any of the others as of yet

boys of the choir compline is the final church service or office of the day in the christian tradition of canonical hours compline tends to be a contemplative office that emphasizes spiritual peace in many monasteries it is the custom to begin the great silence after compline during which the whole community including guests observes silence throughout the night until the morning service the next day in the anglican tradition compline was originally merged with vespers to form evening prayer in the book of common prayer here s the full text for the service the lord almighty grant us a quiet

facebook share to pinterest labels audio feasts holy week palm sunday passion video tuesday march 1 2016 five paths of repentance this is the second reading at mattins of tuesday in the third week of lent would you like me to list also the paths of repentance they are numerous and quite varied and all lead to heaven a first path of repentance is the condemnation of your own sins be the first to admit your sins and you will be justified for this reason too the prophet wrote i said i will accuse myself of my sins to the lord and you forgave the wickedness of my heart therefore you too should condemn your own sins that will be enough reason for the lord to forgive you for a man who condemns his own sins is slower to commit them again rouse your conscience to accuse you within your own house lest it become your accuser before the judgment seat of the lord that then is one very good path of repentance another and no less valuable one is to put out of our minds the harm done us by our enemies in order to master our anger and to forgive our fellow servants sins against us then our own sins against the lord will be forgiven us thus you have another way to atone for sin for if you forgive your debtors your heavenly father will forgive you do you want to know of a third path it consists of prayer that is fervent careful and comes from the heart if you want to hear of a fourth i will mention almsgiving whose power is great and far reaching if moreover a man lives a modest humble life that no less than the other things i have mentioned takes sin away proof of this is the tax collector who had no good deeds to mention but offered his humility instead and was relieved of a heavy burden of sins thus i have shown you five paths of repentance condemnation of your own sins forgiveness of our neighbor s sins against us prayer almsgiving and humility do not be idle then but walk daily in all these paths they are easy and you cannot plead your poverty for though you live out your life amid great need you can always set aside your wrath be humble pray diligently and condemn your own sins poverty is no hindrance poverty is not an obstacle to our carrying out the lord s bidding even when it comes to that path of repentance which involves giving money almsgiving i mean the widow proved that when she put her two mites into the box now that we have learned how to heal these wounds of ours let us apply the cures then when we have regained genuine health we can approach the holy table with confidence go gloriously to meet christ the king of glory and attain the eternal blessings through the grace mercy and kindness of jesus christ our lord the text is taken from one of john chrysostom s homilies i m sorry to say i just cannot stand him but he s exactly right
