Two Neo-Gallican Prefaces
An old friend of mine, Fr Albert Marcello of the diocese of Providence, Rhode Island (my native place), recently shared with me these pictures of a Missal printed by the Alfred Mame publishing house in 1963 for use in France. They show two very beautiful special prefaces, one of the Blessed Sacrament, and the other for the feast of a Saint or Saints who founded a local Church. These are different from the Parisian versions which continued to be used in France even after the Neo-Gallican Missals were replaced by the Roman Missal, and were approved for general use in March of 2020. I here give the Latin texts, and my own translations, first of the solemn tone, then the ferial tone (for votive Masses), and then the late 9th century “more solemn” tone, the general disappearance of which is one of the good things which the post-Conciliar reform did for Gregorian chant. Many thanks to Fr Marcello for sharing these with us.
Praefatio de Sanctissimo Sacramento VD: Per Christum Dominum nostrum, verum aeternumque Pontificem, et solum sine peccati macula Sacerdotem. Qui in novissima coena formam sacrificii perennis instituens, hostiam se tibi primus obtulit, et primus docuit offerri.

Praefatio de S. Fundatore VD: Qui nos secundum misericordiam tuam magnam, de tenebris ad lucem vocare dignatus es, et de potestate Satanae ereptos, in filios adoptionis assumere. Tua enim Domine misericordia, tua gratia, verbum fidei in nobis Martyis tui N. (Martyrum tuorum N. et N.; Sancti tui N.) labore smeinatum est, et sanguine (meritis) fecundatum. Nunc ergo, Pater sancte, confirma hos quod operatus es in nobis, et gregem istum, quem Filio tuo donasti, conserva tuae virtutis auxilio, ut santificatum in veritate, perfectum in unitate, consummare digneris in gloria. Per eundem, Christum Dominum nostrum, Per quam majestatem tuam laudant Angeli…
