1. IN THE SACRISTY.
All things are
prepared in the same manner as for a Low Mass for the Dead except that
the chalice covered with veil is upon the altar, resting on the
corporal, and that the Requiem Missal (Missale Defunctorum) is on the
stand, open at the proper place.
2. ON THE ALTAR.
All
is the same as in a Low Mass for the Dead except that there are four or
six (as custom may prescribe) lighted high candles (these candlesticks
should not be covered with black or violet hangings). The covered
chalice and the Missal are on the altar table.
