Here is a commentary upon the Mass for the Feast of St. Agnes, Virgin and Martyr, taken from Cardinal Schuster's The Sacramentary (Liber Sacramentorum): Historical and Liturgical Notes on the Roman Missal (Vol. III., trans. Arthur Levelis-Marke; New York: Benziger Brothers, 1927).

Thank you friend!

The exigencies of duty and circuмstance (uh, I developed a habit of breathing and eating, and I need money to maintain those habits, therefore it behooves me to work, which takes up most of my time and energy) prohibit me from being as solicitous in these matters as I would and should be.

May Saint Agnes bless you with every single grace and blessing for this thread, particularly an ever-increasing divine charity that will lead you higher and higher unto the heights of the interior life, even the graces of mystical contemplation and union, which are the prelude to Heaven.

St. Agnes is so awesome that she gets two Feast Days.
