In Latin, though-you have heard Latin from the priests? .
Well, they would call it a graduale. .
From gradus, a step, you know.”

Shef waited, not sure of the point.
“There are those who believe in the Holy Graduale.
The Franks call it the Holy Graal.

Yes, the Holy
Graduale,

From Harry Harrison’s view that the Grail, Graduale is
the ladder that was used to remove Christ from the Cross
and was used to carry Christ to his grave site.

Ecclesiastical Trivia Bonus question:

Why is it called a Gradual? Hint: It's not because they sing too slowly.
