Leo XIII: Nos quidem

jtawney

Does anybody happen to have a copy of the 1901 letter from Pope Leo XIII to Dom Delate, Abbot of Solesmes, Nos Quidem. I am having a tragically difficult time finding it online. I need both the text of the letter as well as a valid reference for it (for use in an article). Help is appreciated.

Check the turn of the century Solesmes books here:

Like the different KYRIALE editions around 1901

I scanned through several of them ... no luck.

Paul F. Ford

The entire text is on google books, in The Restoration of Gregorian Chant: Solesmes and the Vatican Edition by Dom Pierre Combe, pages 195-196.

Paul,

Thank you. However, I looked through that book quite a bit before I wrote this post, and it seems the that text, at least when I look at it, is on "unavailable" pages, so it was no use for me. I may try to get it out of a library.

Here are screen caps of the two pages I found at the link above.

Paul,

Thank you so much! This is exactly what I need. In confusion, I went back to the Google Book link, and page 193-195 are hidden from my view. It is 195 that I needed. I wish I understood Google Books enough to know why it allowed you to view it but not me. Alas, the page is there. Thank you.

Yours,

Jake
