Revelation 4:8
Holy, holy, holy.
◦ This word is thrice repeated here, and Esa. 6: and to the imitation thereof, in the service of the holy Church, at Te Deum, and at Mass, specially in the Preface next before the great mysteries, for the honour of the three persons in the B. Trinity, and that the Church militant may join with the triumphant, and with all the orders of Angels, who also are present at the consecration, and do service there to our common Lord and Master, as S. Chrysostom writeth li. 6 de Sacerdotio. and ho. 1. de verb. Esa. to. 1. The Greeks call it, the hymn Trisagios, that is, Thrice holy.
