The History OF Lent

, cause the body grew exhausted by the
i labors of the<l long second half of the
twenty-four hours. In sympathy fol
her children the Church then allowed
| what is now called a collation.. Origin
ally the collation. consisted only in Ii
quid nourishment. AS early as the
thirteenth century Saint Thomas dis
cussed the question whether or no,
drink is to be considered breach OF
the precept of fasting. He answered
in the negative, but would not concede
that solid food might be taken with
the drink. A century later it was
urged that mere beverage did not
give sufficient nourishment and the
abuse arose of taking a small portion
of food with it. The various relaxa.
tions in the custom of the strict fast
which were originally abuses, gradu
ally worked themselves into the disci
pline of the Church. That it was not
real expression of the mind of the
Church is evident from a letter of
Pope Benedict XIV under date of May
80, 1851:
The observance of Lent is the very
badge of the Chriatian welfare. BY
it we prove ourselves not to be enc
mics of the Cross of Christ. By it we
avert the scourge of Divine Justice.
BY it we gain strength against the
prince of darkness, for it shields us
with heavenly help. Should mankind
grow remiss in their observance of
Lent, it would be detriment to Cod
glory, a disgrace to the Catholic re-
ligion, and danger to souls. Neither
can it be doubted that such negligence
would become the source of misery
to the world, of public calamity and
of private Woe"
From time to time various dispersal
lions were granted by the Church.
She had never been unmindful of the
weakness of her children. We are sur
prised when we read the story of the
rigorous fasts and penances of the ear
ly days OF Christianity. Very different
is our method of keeping this peniten-
tial season. The fast which our fore
fathers with their more rugged consti-
tuition and their home robust faith has
been very gradually greatly lessened
for us in our day and country We al.

hermits like Saint FIilarion for whom

whould think him very simple, who
went seven days without food or drink
Christianity truly had giants of sane
titity in those olden days.

Last Wednesday the Church begins
the great and holy season of Lent. l,
is preparation for the festival of East
er. By His own example our Lord has
taught us that fasting, which God had
so frequently ordered in the Old Law
was also to be practiced by His chill
dren in the New Dispensation.
In the Acts of the Apostles we read
how the disciples of our Lord, after the
foundation of the Church, applied
themselves to fasting. They recon-
mended it to the faithful. They knew
that where there is sin there must be
expiation. The Apostles legislated fol-
our weakness. At the very commence
ment of the Christian Church it was
ordered that the solemnity of Easter
should be preceded by universal fast
Many Doctors of the Church assure
us that Lent was instituted by the
Apostles themselves, although in the
beginning there was not uniformity in
its observance.
The season of Lent is consecrated
in an especial manner to penance. The
penance is practiced in the main by
fasting. During Lent the fast is prac-
ticed in obedience to the general law
of the Church. 1t is hardly necessary
to show the advantages of fasting.
Both the Old and New Testament are
filled with the praises of this holy
practice. The traditions of every ma
ton in the world testify the univer-
sal veneration in which it has ever
been held. There is not people or a
religion, even though it may have
lost the purity of primitive traditions,
that does not hold the conviction that
man may appease His God by subject
ing his body to penance. The Doctors
of the Church call attention to the
fact that the commandment put upon
our First Parents in the Garden of
Paradise was one of abstinence. The
violation of this command brought ev-
cry kind of evil upon the world.
In the Old Law the Jews were al
lowed only one meal on day of fast,
which meal was not taken until sunset.
The same custom was followed by the
early Christians and was scrupulously
practiced for many centuries. The law
was relaxed about the ninth century.
In the twelfth century the custom of
breaking ones fast about three o'clock
in the afternoon prevailed in the West
ern countries. At the close of the
thirteenth century the law was further
mitigated and the people were allowed
to, break their fast at midday. Gradu-
ally new relaxations came into prac-
tice. The practice of taking the meal
at midday made it more severe be,
