The fourth week of November

Following one of the comments below, of interest might be the image below of Capuchin Ordo for 1872. Because of the changes to the rubrics for Mattins lessons in the 1911-13 reform it can be seen that the 'Incipits' of the books of the three Minor Prophets that were observed on Saturday were anticipated in 1872 on the Wednesday:

  1. Why is one feast that coincides with a Double of the 1st class commemorated (e.g. May 7, 2025: Solemnity of St. Joseph with St. Stanislaus), while on another Double of the 1st class another coincident feast is omitted altogether (e.g. May 29, 2025: Ascension Day, but without St. Mary Magdalene of Pazzi)? When is a feast that has been downgraded by a higher feast day (but not moved) commemorated (in Vespers, Lauds and (private) Mass) and when is it not? Which feasts are commemorated not only in private Masses, but in all Masses?

    This is somehow confusing. I still don't understand the corresponding rule.

    Thank you very much!

  2. Not sure what that has to do with the fourth week of November but one is a primary double first class feast of the LORD and the other is not.

  3. May I ask you to explain the rules that allow ordering the readings of the first nocturn on November 23rd by retrieving the “incipits” of the three preceding days?
    Thank you very much!
