The Manipula is a liturgical parade used in Roman rite extraordinary. Inside it is considered the sign of sweat.

The handpiece comes from a handkerchief (mappula) which was brought by Romance tied to the left arm.

Use

It is delivered during the sweaty ordination ceremony.

It was then kept in all other degrees of the Sacrament of the Order (diaconate, presbyterate, episcopate).

During the Eucharistic celebration the priest, the deacon and the sweat They take him to the left forearm.

The bishop entering the church does not wear the handpiece, which is in his vex brought by Ceremony. The celebrant wears the handpiece only after the first prayers at the foot of the altar. This use was traced back to the fact that the ceremonial once organized the complex Entrance procession using the handpiece as a sign of command or even as starter.

Its use has been made optional in 1967, with the second Education for the Straight Application of Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy, Tres abhinc annos.

The Novus Ordo Missae does not mention any, so that some I suppose its use is lawful, by virtue of a custom ab immemorabilia.

It should be said, however, that the handpiece was the sign of and that this has been suppressed in 1972, with the motu proprio Ministeria quaedam of Paul VI.

This priestly handpiece was made in Germany by professional craftsmen.
