November 9: The Dedication of the Archbasilica of the Holy Saviour

IN DEDICATIONE ARCHIBASILICÆ SANCTISSIMI SALVATORIS

From the Introit:

"How terrible is this place!  This is no other but the house of God and the gate of heaven.  It shall be called the temple of God.  How lovely is Thy dwelling place, Lord of Hosts!  My soul longs and faints for the courts of the Lord.  Glory be to the Father."

Quinto Idus Nouembris. Luna septemdecima. Romæ, in Laterano, Dedicatio Basilicæ sanctissimi Saluatoris, quæ omnium Vrbis et orbis ecclesiarum est mater et caput.
