The Cities Hostile And The Towns Unfriendly And The Villages Dirty

Unable to attend the Extraordinary Form today, I have missed the Epiphany for the fourth time running, but only the fourth time in my life.

There are, however, those in England who will still be keeping it on the same day as the Pope. In the Church of England.

Quite a senior member of which once asked me in all seriousness whether or not we were still keeping Christmas Day on 25th December rather than moving it to the nearest Sunday.

We had rather hoped for a reversal when Archbishop Nichols was installed on the real Ascension Day. So, where is it?

Meanwhile, liberals like ecumenism. Let them do the ecumenical thing by doing the Ultramontane thing, restoring the Epiphany and Ascension Day, and with them Corpus Christi, to their proper days.

As kept both by our separated brethren and by our Holy Father.
