I was just curious if the Parisian Rite had the simple 3x Alleluia or something more interesting. (I am "restoring" "Vespers" at the Easter Vigil this year, and am slightly reluctant to use the uber-ubiquitous mode 6 Alleluia that is given in the Roman books.)
I tried googling "Graduel de Paris" and found three choices this if it works is the clearest. The google books copy downloaded but Acrobat reader said it was unreadable, though it was viewable on line but with curiously half blank pages. And yes it does have a complex triple alleluia at the end of the Easter Sunday communio, the only triple I could see.
Yesterday, NLM ran an article about Parisian readings for the Octave of Corpus Christi which linked to texts from a Votive Mass "for the reparation of injuries done to Christ in the Most Holy Sacrament." The texts are completely different from those of the Benedictine that have circulated around the net the last few years. Does anyone with a Graduale Parisiense have these propers for this feast? Does anyone know if there was a Votive Office as well? Thanks!
Introitus Quanta malignatus est inimicus in sancto! in terra polluerunt tabernaculum nominis tui, Domine. Usquequo, Deus, irritat adversarius nomen tuum in finem? Ps. Ut quid, Deus, repulisti in finem? iratus est furor tuus super oves pascuae tuae? Gloria Patri. Quanta.
Graduale Viderunt altare profanatum, et sciderunt vestimenta sua, et planxerunt planctu magno. V. Imposuerunt cinerem super caput suum, et ceciderunt in faciem super terram, et clamaverunt in caelum.
Alleluia, alleluia. Zelus domus tuae comedit me, et opprobria exprobrantium tibi ceciderunt super me. Alleluia.
Offertorium Ad Christum accedamus cum vero corde in plenitudine fidei, aspersi corda a conscientia mala, et consideremus invicem in provocationem caritatis, et bonorum operum.
Communio Quanta putatis mereri supplicia, qui Filium Dei conculcaverit, et sanguinem testamenti pollutum duxerit, in quo sanctificatus est?
