Bishop Steven J. Lopes sprinkling the congregation
An aspergillum (sprinkler) and silver ewer of holy water on the altar, prepared for asperges (Cathedral Church of Saint Matthew, Dallas, Texas).

Asperges is the rite of sprinkling a congregation with holy water. The name comes from the first word in the 9th verse of Psalm 51 (Psalm 50 in the Vulgate and Septuagint) in the Latin translation which is sung during the traditional form of the rite (or optionally in the ordinary rite) except during Eastertide. The 51st Psalm is also one of the antiphons that may be sung in the rite under the Mass of Paul VI.
