Good morning! It is
Wednesday, April First.
Canticles are songs
or poems based on portions of scripture. They are used in the daily office and
in the Eucharist. Each is numbered, named, and has a Latin name.
Today, we will read
canticle nine, the first song of Isaiah, Ecce, Deus, page eighty-six of the
Book of Common Prayer.
Note: My Latin pronunciation of "Ecce, Deus" is not correct. It should sound like "ECH-ay, De-oo s." I was using Southern Latin.
