Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Chants of the Vatican Gradual Questions of purely historical interest have been touched upon only as occasion offered. No attempt has been made to portray the historical development of the different Mass formulas, and still less has any critical study of the various readings of texts and melodies been attempted. Nor should the reader expect a systematic introduction to the liturgical year, although the author has made an effort to explain the texts in their proper liturgical setting in the Church year.
