The words spoken by the priest when giving Holy Communion have
been shortened to "Corpus Christ" -- "The Body of Christ;" the person
communicating says "Amen" before receiving Holy Communion; and
the priest no longer makes the sign of the Cross with the host.
The Last Gospel is omitted, and the prayers formerly recited at the end of the Mass (the
"Leonine" prayers) are no longer said.
