Today is the Octave Day of All Saints and is of greater double rank.
The Office is as on the feast but the psalmody is taken from the Psalter for Saturday. At Mattins the first nocturn lessons are from occuring scripture, the lessons of the second and third nocturns are proper with the ninth lesson being of the Forty Crowned Martyrs.
At Lauds a commemoration is also made of the Four Crowned Martyrs.
At Mass the Gloria is sung and the second collect is of the Four Crowned Martyrs.
Vespers are first Vespers of the following feast of the Dedication of the Lateran Basilica with a commemoration of the Octave Day of All Ssints and the third Sunday of November.
This year the second Sunday of November and its week are omitted.
