The de Profundis was said in funeral masses, but does anyone know if it was
said in the funeral mass of a pope?
Aside from "Deathbed Ceremonies of a Pope" in Ordo Romanus XV, I'm not aware
of any text of a funeral mass of a pope, either medieval or modern. (Can't
get The Pope's Body by Bagalioni till June 1, so I don't know if my answer
may be in there).
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance
