Hereupon S. Augustine demandeth this Question: Wherefore then doth the Priest lift up his voice, and pray aloud, in the open assembly in the Church? He answereth, Not that God, but that men may hear him: that the people by the sound of his voice, and understanding his meaning, may be put in mind, and by consent be joined together, and be lifted up to God. This is the very meaning and mind of S. Augustine, agreeing fully with these words of S. Cyprian: The Priest before Prayer prepareth ⟨p. 172⟩the minds of his brethren,1 saying thus: Lift up your hearts: To the intent they may be put in mind, they ought to think of nothing else, but of the Lord. For not the sound of voice,2 but the mind and understanding must pray unto the Lord with pure intention.
