If any brethren be at work at a great distance, so that they cannot get to the oratory at the proper time, and if the abbot recognise that such is the case, then let them perform the Work of God in the place where they are working, bending their knees in reverence before God. In like manner let those who are sent on a journey not miss the appointed Hours; but let them say them for themselves, as well as they can, and not neglect to pay the due measure of their service.
