Levada struts his stuff




We like: the Roman chasuble; the pectoral cross worn UNDER same (extra marks for that); the colored cincture.
We dislike: the color - should be rose; the absence of tunicle; the fact that he is not really going to say the Old Mass.

Purple on Laetare Sunday is an option even in the Old Rite - if you don't have rose vestments. Perhaps they threw them out in S. Maria in Domnica after the Council ...? And perhaps they just couldn't find a pontifical dalmatic ...?

Another point: His Eminence shouldn't have crossed his stole ...

Hmm, is that stole crossed...? If so, we don't like that either. God bless your eyesight.
