Ambrosian Liturgy and Rite.

In the Ambrosian Liturgy, at the end of the Mass, the people are dismissed with the words: "Ite in pace".

Saint Mirocles, Archbishop of Milan and Confessor, helped develop the Ambrosian Liturgy and chanting (318)

The Ambrosian Liturgy, better perhaps than any other, preserved traces of the great Vigils or pannychides, with their complex and varied display of processions, psalmodies, etc.

He also consecrated bishop Gaudentius of Novara and, according to the 13th-century writer Goffredo of Bussero, he organized the texts of the Ambrosian liturgy.

Ambrosian chant serves two main functions in the Ambrosian liturgy: to provide music for the chanting of the Psalms in the monastic Offices, and to cover various actions in the celebration of the Mass.

Especially since the Second Vatican Council of 1962-1965, the Church no longer uses Latin as the exclusive language of the Roman and Ambrosian liturgies of the Latin Church of the Catholic Church.

As revised after the Second Vatican Council, the Ambrosian Liturgy of the Hours used for what once called Matins either the designation "the part of Matins that precedes Lauds in the strict sense" or simply "Office of Readings".

But Neale greatly exaggerated the Romanizing effected by St. Charles Borromeo, and his essay on the Ambrosian Liturgy is somewhat out of date, though much of it is of great value as an analysis of the existing Rite.

A comparison with the Ambrosian books (see Ambrosian Liturgy and Rite) may also be of service, while most lacunae in our knowledge of the Gallican Rite may reasonably be conjecturally filled up from the Mozarabic books, which even in their present form are those of substantially the same rite.
