They also eliminated the Prayer of St Michael as well. I was born after the liturgical changes of the 60s and I did not discover that prayer until I was an adult.
As if the “Congregation” were a bunch of silly sheep who were incapable of understanding things of the Spirit. And yet, I was but a CHILD, and immediately noticed that my favorite things were now MISSING from the Liturgy, even though they had been in LATIN!
OK, so I was of above average intelligence, but STILL.
Blessings to you this Easter Sunday, FRiend.
