@Thomas, Yes. There is a myth that there has to be an odd number of collects in any Mass. Whilst that may have been true at one time in the Roman rite since Trent that does only apply to the addition of votive orations.
Thank you. During the Christmas Octave, when would the Sunday within the Octave be kept if the local propers have a duplex feast on the 30th? Am I correct in assuming, at least in this country, that the Sunday would be commemorated on 30th (since 26-29th are all duplex 2 classis)?
The Saint Lawrence Press is dedicated to the preservation of the classical Roman Liturgy and seeks especially to raise awareness of the process of liturgical reform before the Second Vatican Council. To meet these aims the Saint Lawrence Press publishes an Ordo Recitandi, in Latin, modelled on those produced in Rome in the middle of the last century before the unpleasant,
unfortunate, and damaging, changes of the 1950's and early 1960's.
The Ordo Recitandi contains the necessary information enabling those who wish to celebrate the traditional Divine Office and Mass to identify those variable parts for every day in the Liturgical year.
To order a copy of the Ordo Recitandi please visit our homepage by following the link below.

Rubricarius,
I notice that when the prayer Fidelium is said, there are four collects: does the rule requiring an odd number only apply to prayers said ad libitum?
