Chapter 187: Enthronement Ceremony, Ten Thousand People Sing "The Mass"

On the morning of September 28, Marin put on a full gown and went to the viewing platform under the guidance of the papal friars to attend the enthronement ceremony of Julius II......

In front of the square in front of St. John the Basilica of the Lateran, surrounded by 100 cardinals of Rome, Julius II, dressed in a robe, walked to the altar of the Basilica of the Lateran, and with the help of the two respected cardinals of the Roman Cardinals, put on the crown and took up the golden cross scepter, which symbolizes the authority of the papal authority......

Fully equipped, Julius II, in the presence of all the cardinals and dignitaries in the Lateran Basilica, swore a reverent oath to God that he would be God's most faithful servant, administering the mortal Christians in place of God, and spreading God's glory......

After the oath of Ulius II, the 100 cardinal archbishops in the basilica offered their blessings to Ulius II as the official pope, and expressed their willingness to obey the leadership of the new pope and devote themselves to spreading the gospel of God. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

After completing the internal procedure, Julius II took the golden cross scepter and, accompanied by two esteemed cardinals, walked to the balcony on the second floor of the Lateran Temple, where he was greeted with cheers and worship by the people in the square outside.

When Julius II went up to the balcony on the second floor, he raised his arms and shouted:

"The darkness of the old era (the time of Alexander VI) has passed, and the new one has come! Let us move towards a brighter future under God's guidance! ”

At this moment, the 7,000 East Frisian soldiers standing outside the Basilica of St. John in Lateran suddenly shouted in Latin in a neat voice:

"Light!"

"Light!"

"Light!"

shouted three times in a row, startling the guests present.

Marin suddenly laughed, as a well-trained East Friesian soldier, shouting slogans in unison, that is a compulsory skill. Although the soldiers did not understand Latin, "light" was only one word, and it was not difficult to teach. There are more complicated ones, which can still be memorized.

It took a while for the others to come to their senses from the shock. Then came the cheers of the guests in the square and the crowd of Rome:

"Hooray!"

"Long live the Pope!"

"Long live the Holy See!"

"Long live Rome!"

……

After a long time, on both sides of the square of St. John the Cathedral of Lateran, there was a sudden burst of neat music. Marin stood up and looked over, it turned out that on both sides of the church square, at some point, a group of musicians had been arranged, and music was playing......

Moreover, this tune is very familiar to Marlin, and that is "The Mass"......

The low and atmospheric opening music, although because there is no suitable instrument, is far from the level of later electronic music. However, in this era when instrumental music has not yet begun to develop, it can be regarded as very shocking.

At this time, the choir of about 3,000 priests and nuns standing beside the orchestra took out their lyric books and began to sing them in Latin:

Semper crescis aut descrescis

Change is impermanent, surplus and deficiency alternate

Vita detestabilis

Abominable life

Nunc obdurat et unc curat ludomentis aciem

Intertwine suffering and happiness

Nunc obdurat et unc curat ludomentis aciem

Intertwine suffering and happiness

Egestatem potestatem dissolvit ut glaciem

Regardless of poverty and wealth, the wheel of fortune

When the song was sung here, the 7,000 East Frisian soldiers standing in the square suddenly joined the 3,000 priests and nuns in singing:

Divano

Divine

Divano me

Divine Mi

Divano mesi

Divine Messiah

Divano mesia

The Holy Messiah

Divano mesia

The Holy Messiah

Divano

Divine

Divano me

Divine Mi

Divano mesi

Divine Messiah

Divano mesia

The Holy Messiah

Divano mesia

The Holy Messiah

……

Hoc in hora sinc mora corde pulsum tangite

Just now, don't delay to pluck the strings

Quod per sortem sternt fortem mecum omnes plangite

Because fate has also been crushed by fate, and all the pain must be eliminated.

……

At this time, in the square of St. John Cathedral in Lateran, a shocking song resounded, and it was a chorus of 10,000 people. Of course, most of the East Frisian soldiers did not speak Latin. The rest of the part was sung by 3,000 monks and nuns who knew Latin, and only in the high tide part did the 7,000 East Frisian soldiers participate in the chorus. Because, this part is to take down the phrase "Divano mesia" and sing it four times, and then repeat it, which is very simple. Even if those East Friesian soldiers are basically uneducated, such a simple singing method can still be mastered.

Moreover, tens of thousands of people sang "Divano mesia Holy Messiah" together, and the sound was uniform, which was also amazing. The guests present were stunned by this momentum.

This "The Mass" is a majestic religious song, and with tens of thousands of people singing in unison, the momentum is simply overwhelming. Even Marin, the "author", was deeply shocked, not to mention people from other countries who came to watch the ceremony.

When the song "The Mass" ended, the square of St. John the Cathedral of Lateran was silent, and the people were so shocked by this sacred song that they could not speak for a long time......

Even, many devout believers, after singing along, were so shocked that they burst into tears and kept drawing crosses on their chests......

At this time, Europeans were still religious. Even the kings were mostly devout believers. Therefore, the guests present, regardless of status, are basically devout believers. Except, of course, Marin's guy.

Because the music was majestic and full of sacredness, the guests present, probably delusionally, looked at Julius II on the balcony on the second floor, as if they saw God's spokesman on earth.

So, many devout believers knelt down and began to pray. If there is a prestige system in the game, you can find that the new Pope Julius II, in the hearts of the guests present, the prestige is "rubbing" straight up......

Seeing such a situation, where does Marin, who has always been clever, not know what to do? So he raised his arms and shouted, shouting in Latin:

"Long live the Pope! Long live the Pope! ”

Those excited guests, driven by Marin, in order to vent the excitement in their hearts, also raised their arms and shouted:

"Long live the Pope!"

"Long live the Pope!"

"Long live the Pope!"

……

Standing on the balcony on the second floor, Julius II watched as so many distinguished guests in the square followed his son-in-law and chanted "Long live the Pope!" My heart was greatly applied. In his decades of papacy career, he had not seen a pope so popular on his first day on the throne.

The enthronement ceremony ended at noon, however, many fanatical believers were reluctant to leave for a long time. Many believers, even some of the great nobles, pestered the monks and nuns of the choir to extract the lyrics of "The Mass" and take it home to sing, and asked for some pronunciation details. On this day, the whole of Rome became hot because of the divine comedy "The Mass". And the scene of 10,000 people singing "The Mass" has also become an eternal classic in the enthronement ceremony of successive popes......
