the technical term for a tippet worn by cardinals over a mantle, or short cloak, showing only a chain of a breast-cross. At Pisa in summer a red mozetta is worn over a rochet; at Catania the mozetta of black cloth is worn over the rochet; at Syracuse the mozetta is violet, as at Malta, where it is used with a rochet and cope; at Ratisbon it is of red silk.
