CHAPTER XLV Of those who blunder in the Oratory · 40 of 65
The Rule of Saint Benedict
English, translated by Cardinal Francis Aidan Gasquet, translator — Cardinal Francis Aidan Gasquet, translator, 1925
Ir any one, whilst reciting a psalm, responsory, antiphon or lesson, make any mistake, and do not at once make humble satisfaction for it before all, let him be subjected to greater punishment, as being one who is unwilling to correct by humility what he has done amiss through negligence. For such a fault let
children be whipped.
