chopinists

I made a decision and invite other Catholic Chopinists to carefully think about doing the same, and that is to support only those dioceses, groups, or orders that are Catholic and traditional. Investigate each entity first and avoid the coffee monks in Wyoming. He gave you a brain. Use it. Nothing is exempt from scrutiny.

De Hirundine (About the swallow)

Est mihi corporeae species aptissima formae,
Quae fore terrigenûm nulli onerosa quaeat;
Vixetenim digitos numerat mensura quaternos,
Formula qua constat corporis arta mei.
Unde dei templis fas est mihi ponere nidos
Inque hominum pullos aede fovere meos.

​I have a body of a very suitable shape,
with which I cannot be a burden to anyone on earth.
After all, it’s only barely four fingers long;
that is what my delicate physique consists of.
That’s why I can build nests in churches
and in the houses of men for my boy care.
