Robert William Chambers (May 26, 1865 \u2013 December 16, 1933)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

T<\/span>oday is the 86th anniversary of the death of Robert W. Chambers, a perhaps little remembered writer who nevertheless had an enormous impact on me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was only much later that I found out he was Catholic, and I read his works in an entirely different light.

In your charity, please pray for him. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Requiem \u00e6ternam dona eis, Domine:
et lux perpetua luceat eis.
In memoria \u00e6terna erit iustus,
ab auditione mala non timebit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord:
and let perpetual light shine upon him.
He shall be justified in everlasting memory,
and shall not fear evil reports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Absolve, Domine,
animas omnium fidelium defunctorum
ab omni vinculo delictorum
et gratia tua illis succurente
mereantur evadere iudicium ultionis,
et lucis \u00e6ternae beatitudine perfrui.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Forgive, O Lord,
the souls of all the faithful departed
from all the chains of their sins
and by the aid to them of your grace
may they merit to avoid avenging judgment,
and enjoy the blessedness of everlasting light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lux \u00e6terna luceat eis, Domine,
cum sanctis tuis in \u00e6ternum,
quia pius es.
Requiem \u00e6ternam dona eis, Domine;
et lux perpetua luceat eis ;
cum Sanctis tuis in \u00e6ternum,
quia pius es.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

May everlasting light shine upon him, O Lord,
with your Saints forever,
for you are kind.
Grant him eternal rest, O Lord,
and may everlasting light shine upon him.
with your Saints forever,
for you are merciful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
