(Liturgy, from the Greek meaning a public duty or work; used the Septuagint [the Greek Bible] and New Testament, e.g., Luke i, 23, for the Temple serve).
i. the forms of prayer, acts and ceremonies used in the public and official worship of the Church, principally in the offering of the Eucharistic Sacrifice, the singing of the Divine Office, and the administration of the Sacraments, and the use thereof. This must be distinguished from the public use of popular devotions.
ii. In particular, the Eucharist Sacrifice itself, always called "The Mass" in the Western church but usually "The Holy Liturgy" or "The Offering" in the Eastern churches. In this work, this sense is distinguished from i. above by the use of a capital L., or sometimes the added adjective "Eucharistic.
iii. Rarely, some other particular serve, e.g., the Liturgy of Baptism better called the rite or office of Baptism.
