Excerpt from The Pastor, Vol. 2: A Monthly Journal for Priests Though we insist on observing all prescribed ceremonies, and though we are taught that it would be a grave to slight them in notable measure, we cannot for a moment hold any one, or any group, of the liturgical laws, in equal balance with this, the object of which is not the manner of doing the thing, but the thing itself, and that thing no other than the source of all life and good, the Adorable Sacrifice. Speculation and opinion must cease here. Find the law, and do in the matter as directed by Him who is commissioned from on high to direct us, and to whom in fullest measure is constantly streaming from above, the graces and lights involved in the words el porlae inferi non praevalebunt. If not thoughtlessness, it would be sheer impudence, and almost an abnegation of allegiance to the Catholic faith, for any of us, mere priests, to go on duplicating, in circumstances for which we may know the Holy See would not grant the privilege.
