The Sanctus candle was placed on the Epistle side of the altar because that was where the server was kneeling.
Thus for occasions of solemnity (= two servers), it was recommended that there be two candles.

It was lit as the priest was finishing the Preface, then placed at the Epistle side of the altar from the point of the Sanctus
until the priest has had his Communion.
Then it was carried by a sacristan to the communion rails,
as if lighting the communicants as they received the Lord [on their knees and on the tongue]
with a long-handled paten placed under their chin. Only after everybody had received was the Sanctus candle put out.

The Mass Of All The Ages

The development of the Latin rite Mass is traced through a series of links in an unbroken chain beginning with very first mass given by Christ 2,000 years ago at the Last Supper. Beginning with that fateful evening, on every single day that has passed since then, this same offering has been done. It’s been done millions of times for billions of people, just as He commanded.

The Traditional Latin Mass of today is essentially unchanged since the Council of Trent, five centuries ago. Some elements are derived from Jewish customs dating back to pre-Apostolic times, and other parts were developed by Church Fathers and various Saints and Popes. Pope Saint Gregory the Great instituted the Greek Kyrie Eleison and Sacred Chant during his reign. The vestments have changed little since they were developed during ancient Roman empire.

The traditional Latin Tridentine Mass has been quite accurately described as "the most beautiful thing this side of heaven."

History of the Tridentine Mass

The final version of the Tridentine Mass was codified in 1570 by the Council of Trent, but some of the material in it is nearly 1000 years older.

The Council of Trent was a response by the Catholic Church to the dramatic upheaval of the Reformation. Roman Catholic bishops met for 25 sessions of debate between 1545 and 1563; further discussions continued in Rome for years afterwards.

Liturgical reform wasn't the Council's only result; it led to the founding of the Jesuits, a revision of the Church Calendar and much clarification and codification of Catholic doctrine.

The liturgical problem was that many local variations on the Mass had been created in the confusion that followed the Reformation, not all of them of high quality or in line with the central doctrine. The Church realised that different liturgies could become a real threat to unity.

The liturgical reforms were made by a commission set up for the purpose by Pope Pius V. Their job was to create new, centrally authorised orders of service that every Church in every country would have to use. They issued the Breviarum Romanum in 1568 and the Missale Romanum in 1570.

Why people like the Tridentine Mass.

It's a theatrical and poetic experience of great spiritual power
It has more of a sense of the mystery and the sacred
It's more clearly sacrificial than the modern Mass
It's part of a tradition of worship that's centuries old
It's always the same - there's no freedom for personal variations
The language has a brevity and power that vernacular versions don't achieve
Modern texts are often banal
Because it was the same in every country, it produced a sense of community with other Catholics worldwide
Because it's what they grew up with
Because they don't like change
Some people also feel that the modern mass downgrades the status of the priest unacceptably, and weakens the theological content of the service in order to make it more readily understood.

Where this has happened, and it's very much a matter of opinion, it is the result of local liturgical initiatives and not due to the specific changes made by Vatican II.

01/11/2018

The Tridentine Mass was never banned by the Vatican, although it was restricted in many places. The intention was always that the old liturgy should continue where it was appropriate.
