For this cause, as they report, saith Carolus Magnus, that noble, virtuous, and learned Emperor, writing to his Schoolmaster Alcuinus our Countryman, and first teacher of Philosophy in Paris, It is become a Custom in the Church, that the Canon, and Consecration be said by the Priest Secretly, that those words so Holy, and pertaining to so great a Mystery, should not grow in contempt, whiles all in manner through common use bearing them away, would singe them in the high ways, in the streets, and in other places, where it were not thought convenient. Whereof it is told, that before this Custom was received, Shepherds when they sang them in the field, were by God's hand stricken. Luther him self in Praeceptorio, is much against them, that would have the Canon of the Mass to be pronounced with a loud voice for the better understanding.
