Some readings not found in the present Missal text have been restored in order to secure a better restoration of the form of the chant. In an audience granted 14 March, 1906 ... the restoration of these readings was expressly approved and prescribed by the Supreme Pontiff, and is to be absolutely observed in future editions of the Graduale.
No change is to be made in the words of the text or in the rubrics, which therefore must be reproduced without modification, as in the last typical edition.
