Benedict, Saint, Abbot of Monte Cassino and Doyle, Leonard J. (Leonard Joseph)
The Morning and Evening Offices should never be allowed to pass without the Superior saying the Lord’s Prayer in its place at the end so that all may hear it, on account of the thorns of scandal which are apt to spring up. Thus those who hear it, being warned by the covenant which they make in that prayer when they say, “Forgive us as we forgive,” may cleanse themselves of faults against that covenant.
But at the other Offices let the last part only of that prayer be said aloud, so that all may answer, “But deliver us from evil.”
