I translated it as: At Sext on third and all doubles
Background: These are instructions for hymns. Sext is a time of prayer during the day. At some point in the medieval period, the church calendar got pretty complicated; some special days were 'semi-doubles', 'doubles of the second class', and so on. I'm mainly interested in a literal translation. 'Third and all' doesn't seem right to me, and I know numbers can be tricky in different languages.
