Even the audio pretty much does this. It’s a shortcut. Hope it’s not too aggravating.Matins is a bit of a tough one. The invitatory stays the same, so you get the hang of that. The responsories have a bit of variation and in Lent where the Te Deum is not said and instead there’s a third responsory, “Felix namquam”.
