Note 40 — Chapter VI · Diabolic Possession and Modern Spiritism

Translated from the Rituale Romanum. There are several forms extant, some authorized, but more, perhaps, unauthorized. There is an authorized form in the Greek Euchologion. It commences with the Trisagion, and Psalms, Domine exaudi (cxlii.), Dominus regit me (xxii.), Dominus illuminatio mea (xxvi.), Esurgat Deus (lxvii.), Miserere (lvi.), Domine ne in furore (vi.), Domine exaudi orationem (ci.). Then follows the Consolatory Canon, with a long Hymn addressed to Our Lord, Our Lady, and All Saints. Next the priest anoints the patient, saying a prayer over him, and so the office closes.
