Little Office of the Blessed Virgin Mary - softcover

The Little Office of the BVM and the Office of the Dead. In Latin and English. The best prayer is the prayer of the Church, simpler than the Breviary, but essentially the same. Pray the inspired psalms of the Holy Ghost. Around since the 8th century. Hated by heretics, loved by friends of Our Lady. Recited by Saints John Damascene, Catherine of Siena, Vincent Ferrer, Louis of France, Bridget of Sweden, and many more. The text of the Little Office of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the Office of the Dead is that of the 1915 Benziger Brothers edition with updated punctuation and slight rewording of some familiar passages in English. The content of the Offices was revised in conformity with the norms of the typical edition of the Roman Breviary published in 1961. Completely re-typset with the Latin and English text on facing pages, this beautiful edition is an eminently readable and truly affordable format for the faithful. Printed in red and black text. Gold foil stamped, black, flexible softcover with rounded corners.
