| 释义 | > as lemmasmatins (and hours) of the Blessed Virgin Mary b. One of the daily offices appointed in the breviary of the Western Christian Church, usually taken as forming (with the following office, lauds) the first of the canonical hours. Also: an analogous part of certain other minor devotions modelled on the canonical hours; esp. in matins (and hours) of the Blessed Virgin Mary.The office of matins was originally said at daybreak, but subsequently began earlier, and came to be continuous with lauds; later these two offices were often performed in anticipation on the previous evening. In the Roman Catholic Church the office of matins was replaced in 1971 by an office of readings which could be said at any time of day.
