For those of you looking for some All Souls Day inspired reading, I wanted to give some linkages back to some of the pieces we have shared on this day over the past few years.
2011:
The "Hymnus ad Exequias Defuncti" of Prudentius
2010:
Liturgical Notes for All Souls Day
2009:
The Dies Irae Sequence
Finally, something not specific to All Souls but pertinent nonetheless:
On the Use of Black Vestments for Masses for the Dead
On the Use of Unbleached Beeswax Candles for Masses for the Dead
