Chapter 10: The night office in summertime

From Easter until the first day of November the same number of psalms should be said as we have established for winter, but because the nights are shorter, instead of reading three lessons from the book on the lectern only one should be recited by heart from the Old Testament with a brief responsory to follow. (From Ch.10 of Saint Benedict's Rule, trans. by Patrick Barry, OSB, 1997.)

Do I take seriously the challenge and opportunity to learn "by heart" some of the divinely inspired words that speak to my heart?
