One of Newman’s Oratorian friends, who had lived with him for years has left us the following testimoney: “Newman had always been greatly attached to the recital of the Office, and he rejoiced especially in the recurence of the Sunday and ohter longer offices; his favourite parts of which never palled upon him as subjects for conversation.”

W. Ward; The Life of John Henry Cardinal Newman, vol II, p 533.
