Passiontide
Passiontide is a name for the last two weeks of Lent, beginning on the Fifth Sunday of Lent, long celebrated as Passion Sunday, and ending on Holy Saturday. In the Roman Catholic Church, and in Anglo-Catholic churches, all crucifixes and images may be covered in veils starting on Passion Sunday: "The practice of covering crosses and images in the church may be observed, if the episcopal conference decides. The crosses are to be covered until the end of the celebration of the Lord's passion on Good Friday. Statues and images are to remain covered until the beginning of the Easter Vigil." The veiling was associated with Passion Sunday's Gospel, in which Jesus "hid himself" from the people. In the Tridentine Mass, Psalm 42 is omitted at ferial Masses until Holy Thursday inclusive, as is the short doxology at the Introit and the Psalm Lavabo at Mass. It is likewise omitted in Psalm 94 at Matins, and the responds at Matins, Prime, Terce, Sext, None, and Compline. Also in the ferial Mass, the Preface for Lent gives way to the Preface of the Cross.
