- Liturgy O.C.S.O. was published by Gethsemani Abbey, Trappist, KY and edited by Father Chrysogonus Waddell from 1966-1999. The journal (at that time a newsletter) began after September 1965 meeting of the Liturgy Commission of the Order of Cistercians of the Strict Observance to report progress in liturgical renewal after Vatican II. The audience and contributors later included secular scholars of the Cistercian liturgy. and Editor's page / Fr. Chrysogonus Waddell -- Spiritual inebriation / Rev. Fr. M.

- Bound in tooled sixteenth-century calf over boards. Metal bosses and clasps lacking, portions of leather straps remain, fastening back to front., f. 62v: Simple black ink drawing of rising sun, washed with red, blue, yellow, and green. Initials: 1- to 8-line crudely drawn pen flourished initials in red, blue, and green passim, one-line single color initials in red passim., Fifteenth or early sixteenth-century German prayerbook for nuns containing meditations and prayers based on office and mass texts of the Easter and Easter season liturgy in Latin and Eastfalian, a dialect of Low German spoken near the River Elbe., Written in various hands, primarily in gothic hybrida, gothic cursiva after f. 361r., and Written for private devotion in a Cistercian convent in the fifteenth or early sixteenth century. Vernacular was initially identified as Ripuarian Low German with Rhenish influences, characteristic to the upper Rhineland; see Waddell, "The Vidi aquam and the Easter Morning Procession: Pages from the Prayerbook of a Fifteenth-Century Cistercian Nun," Liturgy OCSO 21:3 (1987), 4-5. This identification has been clarified as Eastfalian, a dialect spoken in the area around the River Elbe. The convent in which it was written is with high probability the Cistercian convent Medingen near Lüneburg where more than a dozen parallel Easter prayer-books were written, identified by Dr. Henrike Laehnemann in correspondence on March 29, 2012. Folios 241v-242v feature a lengthy colophon, "Scripto et finito libro... Gaudia mansura confert nobis hic dies iubilosa et diliciosa." Given by J. Christian Bay to the Abbey of Gethsemani in the early twentieth century; front pastedown notes: "Gift from our good friends, Mr. J. Christian Bay, Chicago Ill."
