What is your source?
Fr.Anselm;
My source citation string is as follows:
1. First citation in John Harper, The Forms and Orders of Western
Liturgy from the Tenth to the Eighteenth Century. Clarendon Press,
Oxford, 1991. pp122-123.
2. Harper is citing both Nick Sandon. The Use of Salisbury , i(The
Ordinary of the Mass), Newton Abbot, 1984. and, of course,
3 .F. H. Dickinson ( ed) Missale Sarum, issue 2 ( of 4 soft bound
issues) Burntisland, 1861-1863..
I did not then, nor do not have the Latin text at hand,and could not
immediately verify. If, as it seems you are suggesting, Harper et
alia interpolated at the Horth side of Choir pulpitum as "facing
North', then may I assume the direction faced would have been West,
toward the nave? ( as I assumed it must be, and hence the puzzlement
in my post)
Thankk you Fr. Anselm for advice.
Josef Gulka
I would appreciate any
