) priests for this annual religions service, the allot- snt of the several operations, and the ritual of the nrifice itself, were eventually prescribed in the tract tmid (Mishna, v, 10), which llLen has illuBtrated with idite explanation (Brem. 1786, and in Ugolini The- KT. xix) ; comp. also Loscan, De Sacrificio Quotid, ips. 1718). In the (last) Temple there was a lamb- artment in the nortli-west comer for the special pur- ee of this offering (Tamidy iii, 8).— Winer, JUaho. ii, 7. See Sacrifice.

DAILY SERVICE or Praters. In the ancient tiurch, wherever it was practicable, daily service was tablished, at which every clergyman was compelled to tend, under pain of suspension or deprivation, wheth- ' it was his duty to officiate or not. Ttiis subject is itermined by several councils, by the first council of oledo, and by that of Agde : the law of Justinian anishes the neglect of this duty with degradation, be- luse of the scandal it gives to the laity. In some tinrches a daily celebration of the Lord*s Supper seems > have been recommended, and to some extent prac- iced. There are found testimonies on this subject in 'ertnllian, Cyprian, and Irenasus ; the last of whom ays, ** It is the will of our Lord that we should make ur offering at his altar ft«quently, and without inter- oission.** But there was no fixed and express rule as 0 the time of celebration. The rubric of the Church »f England declares that all *' priests and deacons are 0 say daily the morning and evening prayer, either >rivately or openly, not being let by sickness or some >ther argent cause. And the curate that ministereth n every parish church or chapel, being at home, and aot being otherwise reasonably hindered, shall say the Mune in the parish church or chapel where he minis- tereth, and shall cause a bell to be tolled thereunto a convenient time before he begin, that the people may come to hear God's word and to pray with him." But this rule u now a dead letter. — Prayer-iooh^ Preface ; Bingham, Orig, Eccl. bk. vi, chap. iU, § 5, 6 ; Procter, Oh Common Prayer^ p. 195-197.

Daimbert or Dagobert, the first Latin patriarch of Jerosalem. While he was bishop of Pisa, pope Ur- ban II conferred upon him the sovereignty of Corsica fbr an annual tribute of fifty livres, and appointed him papal legate in the East. In Nov. 1095, Daimbert was present at the Council of Clermont when Urban II preached the first crusade, and he joined the crusade at the head of troops from Pisa and Genoa. When Daimbert arrived in Palestine, Godfrey of Bouillon was already master of Jerusalem. At a general meet- hig of the Christian chiefs, held on Christmas, 1099, Daimbert was elected patriarch of Jerusalem, in the place of one Amulphns who was deposed. Godfrey had to leave to Daimbert the sovereignty of Jaffi^ and of that quarter of Jerusalem in which the Church of the Resurrection was situated. On the death of God- frey, Daimbert aspired to the throne of Jerusalem, but finally hsd to yield to Baldwin, and to crown the new lung. Falling out with Baldwin, he was expelled by the latter, and Amulphns returned to the patriarchate. Daimbert went to Italy, and prevailed upon pope Pas- cal II to decide in his favor. He intended to return to Jerusalem and to enforce the papal decision, hat died on his way at Palermo, in 1107.— Hoefer, Biogrw phie Ghtrak, xii, 792.

Dalberg, Kabl Theodor, baron of Dalberg, was

bom Feb. 8, 1744, at Hemsheim, near Worms ; he studied at Gdttingen and Heidelberg ; became, while yet very young, prebendary of Mayence, and canon of Worms and WOnburg. In 1772, as governor of Er- furt, he gave a great impulse to agriculture, commerce, and industry. In 1787 he became coa^tor of the elector of Mayence and the bishop of Worms ; was made bislu>p of Constance in 1788, and soon after arch- bishop of Tarsus. The last elector of Mayence died in 1802, and as, by the treaty of Luneville, the electorate of Mayence on the one side of the Bhine had been abol- ished and on the other secularised, Dalberg became arch-chancellor, which position he held with great cred- it; but by suppressing the convents he incurred the hatred of the clergy, and by sympathy for France that of Germany. In 1804 he was present at the corona- tion of the emperor at Paris. When the confederacy of the Rhine was formed he bad to resign his ofiioe, but, in exchange, was made prinoe-primate of the con- federacy, and was Napoleon's adviser in spiritual and ecclesiastical matters. He afterwards became grand- duke of Frankfort, and appointed Eugene Beauharaais as his successor. In 1818 he renounced his title, went first to Constance, where he protected the vicar gen- eral Wessenberg fix»m the enmity of the pope, and af- terwards returned to Regensburg, where he lived in retirement on a pension of 100,000 florins, and died Feb. 10, 1817.
