OverviewExcerpt from Benedicenda: Rites and Seremonies to Be Observed in Some of the Principal Functions of the Roman Pontifical and the Roman Ritual While the present volume, like, its companion volume of Consecmndo, is meant principally for the convenience of bishops, priests, and such clerics as may take part in the ceremonies it describes, there is a reasonable ground for the hope and expectation that it will find its way into the hands of the students in our ecclesiastical seminaries, who should from the earliest moment of their course begin to understand and to love the infinite variety of detail comprised in those ceremonies. It is with this thought as its inspiration that the following introduction has been penned. The ceremonial of the Church, surrounding and inter preting and emphasizing all of her countless ministrations in behalf of the souls of her children, is the most obvious fact in their spiritual lives. It is also their teacher in reverence for the things of God, and is properly esteemed by them. And yet in their secular reading, possibly in conversations held with their non-catholic friends, the motives lying behind that ceremonial, the value it possesses in symbolizing the spiritual facts it seeks to bring home to them, may be questioned and denied.
