"Truly, it is the indescribable sweetness of contemplation which you give to those who love you. In this you have shown the tenderness of your charity, that when I had no being you made me; and when I strayed away from you, you brought me back again to serve you and commanded me to love you." The Imitation of Christ

Another Reason for Latin in the Liturgy?
It would appear that speaking two languages every day helps to delay the onset of dementia. I better learn a few more of those Latin responses !!
I love Latin!
ReplyDeleteI especially love the Salve Regina, which is sung at Vespers at the Convent where I go on retreat. It is beautiful, and the best way to end the day :)
