The _Thesaurus Liturgiae Horarum Monasticae_ was issued by the Abbot
Primate for the entire Benedictine Confederation in 1977. Basically, it
is a guide for the hours in Monastic houses and offers a theology of the
monastic office, four versions of psalters, common texts for the
psalters and proper texts for feasts.
