For some time now I have been compiling traditional Roman Catholic prayers in their original Latin for my own usage. Given the difficulty in finding the original Latin texts for many of them and the many requests I have had for the Latin text of this prayer or that prayer, I thought I would make them available to soc.relegion.chrisitan readers for whoever wants a copy. For each of the texts I have collected I have both the Latin and English, along with whatever history I could find concerning each prayer. Items such as author, date of composition, and liturgical usage have been included with most of the texts. Anyone who wants a copy is welcome to one (~130K file). Just drop me a line at my e-mail address below and I will e-mail it to you as an attachment (130K e-mails do not go over too big with some mailers, but as far as I know, e-mail attachments can be of 'any' size) I only ask two things of anyone who gets the file; 1) If you should find any mistakes, please let me know so I can correct them. I have proof read them and tried to make them as error free as possible, but anything of this size is likely to have a few errors. 2) If you have any favorite Latin prayers that I have not listed here, **please** send them to me, both the 'official' Latin and English texts and where you found them. I would also appreciate any history you might have concerning them, especially author and date of composition. I would like them for my own use and to be able to include them in future versions so others may enjoy them as well. Et amabo, nihil loquelae Latinae suillae! :-) A fellow Latinophile, Michael Martin aardvark@ial.jcs.nasa.gov The following is an alphabetical list of the Latin titles of the ones I have to date; Adoro Te Devote Alia Oratio Sancti Bonaventuri Alma Redemptoris Mater Angele Dei Angelic Trisagion Angelus ad Virginem Angelus Domini Anima Christi Aspirations Attende Domine Ave Maria Ave Maris Stella Ave Regina C lorum Ave Verum Benedicite Dominum Benedictus Confiteor Crux Fidelis De Profundis Dies Irae Doxologia Minor (Glory Be) Formula Intensionis Ante Missam Gloria Iam Lucis Orto Sidere Iesu, Dulcis Memoria Litania Beatae Viginis Mariae Litania Loreti Magnificat Memorare Miserere Nunc Dimittis O Sacrum Convivium O Salutaris Hostia Oblatio Sui Oratio ad Beatam Viginem Mariam Ante Missam Oratio ad Beatam Viginem Mariam Oratio ad Crucifixum Oratio Ad Omnes Angelos et Sanctos Ante Missam Oratio ad Sanctum Michael Oratio ad St. Ioseph Post Missam Oratio Dominica (The Lord's Prayer) Oratio Sancti Ambrosii Ante Missam Oratio Sancti Thomae Ante Missam Oratio Sancti Thomae Post Missam Oratio Universalis Pange Lingua (St. Thomas) Pange Lingua (V.
