THE LEGENDA

A TRANSLATION OF THE LEGENDA IN THE OFFICE PREPARED FOR THE BLESSED HERMIT RICHARD¹⁵¹⁵ From The York Breviary, vol ii., Appendix v. Pub. by Surtees Soc. 1882.

The office of Saint Richard, hermit, after he shall be canonized by the Church, because in the meantime it is not allowed to sing the canonical hours for him in public, nor to solemnize his feast. Nevertheless, having evidence of the extreme sanctity of his life, we may venerate him and in our private devotions seeks his intercessions, and commend ourselves to his prayers.
