General information
The phrase Simile est regnum caelorum (The kingdom of heaven is like unto…) introduces the parable of the vineyard laborers in Matthew 20: 1-4, 8 & 16b, the Gospel for Septuagesima (in 1970 the reading was reassigned to Ordinary Time 25, Year A).
Some of the unlinked pieces listed below are described as being assigned to the Purification or Common of Virgins, which suggests a different text, either the Pearl of Great Price (Matth. 13, "simile est regnum caelorum homini negotiatori" ) or the Wise and Foolish Virgins (Matth. 25 " simile erit regnum caelorum decem virginibus").
There are parody Masses Simile est by several composers, including Victoria, Guerrero and Lobo.
