This disposition followed the order of a tonary, but William of Volpiano wrote not only the incipits of the classified chant, he wrote the whole chant text with the music in central French neumes which were still written in campo aperto, and added a second alphabetic notation of his own invention for the melodic structure of the codified chant.

This particular type of a fully notated tonary only appeared in Burgundy and Normandy.

The only difference is that every chant is not represented by an incipit, it is fully notated in neumes and in alphabetic notation as well, so that even cantors who do not know the chant can memorize it with this tonary together with its tonus.

A conventional tonary with the list of differentiae was also attached to the beginning of the manuscript.

This tonary is preceded by an alleluia collection written in central French neumes in campo aperto.

" The Nine " ( as the four expelled priests plus five who voluntarily left were called in SSPX circles ) balked at Lefebvre's imposition of the 1962 missal which they believed already included significant departures from the liturgical traditions of the Church ( for example, adding the name of St. Joseph to the Canon of the Mass ).

They adapted this missal further to the needs of their largely itinerant apostolate.

Pope Gregory IX considered, but did not put into effect, the idea of extending this missal, as revised by the Franciscans, to the whole Western Church ; and in 1277 Pope Nicholas III ordered it to be accepted in all churches in the city of Rome.

Acceding to the wishes of many of the bishops, Pope Pius XII judged it expedient also to reduce the rubrics of the missal to a simpler form, a simplification enacted by a decree of the Sacred Congregation of Rites of 23 March 1955.
