17 LOSSARY Alb - is a white garment coming down to the ankles and is usually girdled with a cincture. It is meant to be worn over a cassock, but often is worn as a cassock-alb. Amice - The amice consists of a white cloth connected to two long ribbon-like attachments, by which it is fastened around the shoulders of the priest. While donning the amice, the priest first drapes the amice over his head (as with a hood), then lowers it to his neck, tying it around his torso. Biretta - is a square cap with three or four peaks, surmounted by a tuft. A priest wears an all-black cap with 3 peaks; the dean, canon and bishop wear a 4 peaked cap with red trim and tuft for the dean and purple for the canon and bishop. Cassock The cassock is a single-breasted, ankle length black garment worn over street clothes by laity or over shirt and collar by clergy. Clergy have the option of wearing a sash when worn as outerwear (rather than under an alb). The buttons, piping and sash fringe can be colored according to office. Chasuble is the outermost liturgical vestment worn by clergy for the celebration of the Eucharist. It is worn over the alb and usually over the stole. Cincture - a long, rope-like cord with tasseled or knotted ends, tied around the waist outside the alb. Cope - a long mantle or cloak, open in front and fastened at the breast with a band or clasp. It may be of any liturgical color. A cope may be worn by any rank of the clergy, and also by lay ministers in certain circumstances. If worn by a bishop, it is generally accompanied by a mitre. The clasp, which is often highly ornamented, is called a morse. 17

18 Dalmatic - is a knee length, wide-sleeved tunic, which is worn by a deacon. Like the chasuble, it is an outer vestment and is supposed to match the liturgical color of the day. It usually has bands across the body of the vestment, unlike the more plain tunicle. Humeral Veil - consists of a piece of cloth draped over the shoulders and down the front, normally of silk in the seasonal liturgical color or cloth of gold. At the ends there are sometimes pockets in the back for hands to go into so that the wearer can hold items without touching them with the hands. The humeral veil is used to cover the hands of the priests or deacons so they do not touch sacred vessels as a mark of respect. Maniple - is a liturgical vestment made of an embroidered band of silk or similar fabric that when worn hangs from the left arm. It often is the same construction as the stole and it is of the same liturgical color as the other vestments. Mitre - is the traditional, ceremonial head-dress of bishops. Stole - The stole is a band of colored cloth, usually silk, about three to four inches wide, whose ends may be straight or may broaden out. The center of the stole is worn around the back of the neck and the two ends hang down parallel to each other in front. The stole is often decorated in some way with a cross or some other significant religious design. It is often decorated with contrasting galloons (ornamental trim) and fringe is often applied to the ends of the stole. A deacon s stole is longer and goes over the left shoulder across the chest to the right hip. It may fasten at the hip, or hang down the deacon s left side, over the left shoulder, across the back looping across the right hip, crossing the chest and finishing down the left back. Stoles generally follow the liturgical color of the day. Surplice - The surplice is in the form of a tunic of white linen or cotton fabric, reaching to the knees, with wide or moderately wide sleeves. 18
