Call me old-fashioned, but I just love a nice old Mass in Latin with all the smells, bells and whistles...in Rome! It's all a drawbridge to something so Catholic!
While on a sailing ship on the waters near Rome, I just love the smell of ropes and of pitch and salt and lacquer and seaweed, etc.! It's just the same at a glorious High Mass in Latin! One smells the starched linen and altar wine and beeswax candles and incense and flowers and the works! Such storms of sentiment I feel while worshipping the Lord of History in la Caput Mundi!
