Eric,
The text of the _Officium de Passione Domini_ (also called _Horae de
Passione Domini_) is found in the critical edition of the works of
Bonaventure by the Friars at Quaracchi. See _Opera Omnia_ Vol. VIII, pp.
152-158. According to J. Guy Bougerol, OFM, _Introduction to the Works of
Bonaventure_ trans. Jose de Vinck. Paterson, St. Anthony Guild Press, p.
162: The _Officium de passione Domini_ was written between 1242 and 1247.
It was composed at the request of King Saint Louis. It is a compilation of
scriptural quotations linked together by a limpid and fiery text.
