LENT.
Lent, from tho early Anglo-Saxon
leneten, Spring, Is tho eccieslastlcal
season known In the early Greek
church as Tessarakosto and In the
Latin churoh as Quadragesima, I.e.,
tho fortieth day before Easter.
The Lenten (Spring) fast at first
began with tho Sunday which now
is tho first in Lent, "Invocarlt." It
was Gregory tho Great, who, about
A. D. COO fixed tho beginning of Lent
on tho fortieth day before Easter,
which later on was called "Ash
Wednesday."
The two days boforo Ash Wednes
day are given up to merriment in
somo of tho European countries.
This short season surrendered to tho
flesh nnd tho world bears the signi
ficant name of "Carnival la carvo
vale flesh faro well." Two days of
gaiety aro not enough; In Romo, o.
g., masks aro seen on tho streets for
days beforehand; thoro aro throngs
of masqueradors, 'horse races and
cariiago parades aro In order and
eating and drinking aro Indulged in
moro than over, for a long fast will
bo proclaimed at midnight between
Tuesday and Weduesday.
A s ml don cna is put to all the
rovelory and bountiful fasting by
tho break of Ash Wednesday. By a
canon of tho council of Benovent, A.
D. 1091, tho priest consecrates a
vessel of ttshes boforo mass. Tho
ashos aro of palm and olive tree
branchs, which had been consecrated
on Palm Sunday of tho preceding
year. Ho reads tho sixty-ninth
Psalm and four collects, In which tho
word ashes Is montloned or Inferred;
ho then sprinkles tho ashes vvltn
"holy" water ond fumigates thorn
with tho censer. Thereupon he scat
ters ashes upon tho altar and him
self whilst tho choir slags the anti
phono. (Joel 2:12,13).
After tho prlost has risen, the peo-
plo approach tho altar and kneel on
Us lowest stop. Tho priest carrying
In his right hand tho vessel of ashes.
dips tho forefinger of his right hand!
into it and signs tho forohcads of I
tho kneeling bollevers with a cross,
tlio wet asiios clinging to them for
awhile, in doing this, tho priest
says: "Memento quia pulvls es et In
pulvorom rovortorls." (Remomber
that thou nrt dust and to dust thou
wilt return). After n collect the
olllco of tho mass begins with an
lncroltus from Psalm 57.
Tho Church of England observes
Ash Weunesdny as tho first "Day of
Lent" by a solemn service. Tho
Lutheran church has placed Ash
Wednesday on Its church calendar as"
tho first day of tho blessed Passion
Bcason and has given It Its order
of service. From this day on until
Passion Week tho History of our
Lord's Suffering and Death Is read
and meditated upon In tho homo and
In' week-day services.
As a protest against carnival, In
some parts of Germany, services aro
hold on Monday and Tuesday before
Lont, the appointed lessons being
tho Judgment of Sodom and Gomar
rah and tho penitence of Nlnevah.
Tho Lenten fast, beginning with
Ash Wednesday, uieans deep, true
recognition of sin; sincere and
whole-hearted turning to God; pray
er and communion with Him, secret
nnd Intense supplication to Him; fix
ing tho heart on tho heavenly treas
ures that aro eternal and Incorrupti
ble. It calls for a heavcn-llxed heart
instead of a heart earthbound.
This is tho conservative revival
season and is observed by the Chris
tian church generally.
