Little Office of the Blessed Virgin (1904 vs. 1914)

[JoeMomma]

I have found 2 copies of the Little Office online that I the new motu proprio has sparked my interest in. One is from 1904.The other is from 1914. Anybody know the differences (if any) between the two?

There will be a slight change in the rubrics regarding when the Office can be said (which won’t apply to you, I think) and in Lauds, the 1904 version will have psalms 148-150 instead of just 148. I don’t think there are any others but I could be wrong on that.
