So you want to recite the Divine Office according to the
traditional unrevised Rites in place prior to 1955? This is the
book for you. This is a practical guide to the recitation of the
Catholic Divine Office according to the Breviarium Romanum as
celebrated before any of the Modernists began changing the Divine
Office. This explains simply how to recite all of the Hours of the
Divine Office from Matins to Compline. Originally published in
1921, this work is even more important today to those who wish to
preserve Catholicism and the Divine Office. Chapter 1 is an
overview of the Breviary. Chapter 2 explains the divisions. Chapter
3 is devoted to the Office of Matins of nine lessons and Chapter 4
is for Matins of three lessons. Chapter five is devoted to Lauds.
Chapter six explains the little hours. Chapter seven is devoted to
Vespers, while Chapter eight covers the night prayer of the Church,
Compline. Chapter nine explains where everything can be found,
while Chapter ten explains everything else a person needs to know
to recite the Divine office. Then begins a section of Practical
Theory, which covers any question that might arise in choosing the
proper office of the day. St. Alphonsus writes: "a single bad book
will be sufficient to cause the destruction of a monastery." Pope
Pius XII wrote in 1947 at the beatification of Blessed Maria
Goretti: "There rises to Our lips the cry of the Saviour: 'Woe to
the world because of scandals ' (Matthew 18:7). Woe to those who
consciously and deliberately spread corruption-in novels,
newspapers, magazines, theaters, films, in a world of immodesty "
