Collect<\/h5>\n

A Collect is the first of the Proper<\/a> prayers of the Mass, consisting of a single long sentence said or recited by the celebrant prior to the Epistle<\/a>. Its text, which varies according to the feast or season, is usually comprised of five sections: an invocation to God, a clause describing some aspect of God, a petition to Him (often in the name of the saint whose feast day it is), the goal of the petition, and a conclusion (these sections are labeled in the score). In a Mass for St. Donatian sung entirely in chant, therefore, the saint would not be named until this point in the service; Obrecht’s choice of a plainsong<\/a> cantus firmus<\/em><\/a> for the Kyrie<\/a> that invokes St. Donatian<\/a> thus insures that the saint is made present immediately after the opening.<\/p>\n

The Collect is introduced by the celebrant\u2019s recitational invitation to prayer (Dominus vobiscum<\/em>). The prayer itself is delivered by the celebrant using a simple reciting tone designed for maximum intelligibility.<\/p>\n
