^{page 264 note a} Since this paper was read, the writer finds that a similar distinction is made by De Coussemaker (Drames liturgiques du Moyen Age ; Rennes, 4to, 1860), who says:—” Les drames liturgiques sont ceux qui se liaient d'une manière intime aux cérémonies du culte ; ils étaient la mise en action des offices des temps et des saints ; ils en étaient le développement, ou le complément” (Pref. p. viij.); but that subsequently “l'esprit civil s'empara de l'élément dramatique, et en transporta, dans un but pieux, les émotions au théâtre.”

^{page 265 note b} This does not seem very clear, as the early mediaeval altars appear to have been solid ; it may have been a recess beside, not in, the altar. The rubric of the Roman missal runs—” Hodie paretur locus aptus in aliqua capella ecclesiæ, vel altari ;” and in an Italian office-book for the laity is the further note : “Ma diverso dall' altare ove si è celebrato.” (Uffizio della Settimana Santa Colle Rubriche volgare.
