Although the evidence from Agenda Ecclesiae Argentinensis 
. . . Coloniae, 1590 2 is comparatively modem, it is 
valuable, for it elucidates explicitly the origin of the Host that 
was placed in the sepulchrum on Good Eriday. From the ex¬ 
tracts given below it appears that on Maundy Thursday three 
Hosts were consecrated: one for the Mass of Thursday itself, 
one for the Missa Praesandificatorum of Good Friday, and 
one for the Depositio and Elevatio' of Good Friday and Easter 
respectively. The Elevatio in this case is of especial interest 
from the fact that in the antiphon, Cum rex gloriae, we find, 
in a form suggestive of dialogue, the theme of the Harrow¬ 
ing of Hell.
