Best Answer

The smoking is referred to the incense. It always used during the high mass.

Catholic Answer: When incense is burned at Mass, it is burned in a thurible. This is usually a bell shaped cup with a lid, the whole thing on a chain (or chains) so that it can be swung back and forth. It is used to "cense" the altar, the gifts, the crucifix, the priest, and the congregation, and the book. Low Mass is when a Mass is entirely spoken, High Mass is if certain parts are sung. Solemn High Mass is when incense is used.
