Well, thank you kindly, tjhkkr! The Christmas liturgy, in the traditional Roman Rite, (up to Blessed John XXIII's minor reform of 1960) is classified as Feast of the 1st class with an Octave of 2nd Class. The Feast of Easter, 1st Class obviously but with an Octave of 1st Class, too. And then finally, closing Eastertide, the 1st Class Feast of Pentecost with a 1st Class Octave, which in the reformed rite of Paul VI was suppressed (the Octave, I mean, Pentecost was spared!) [8|] So at best, we have three Octaves left... [8|] Nice to know you, tjhkkr. Take care, friend! [;)]
