Description
Excerpt from Mediæval Hymns and Sequences
It would be, I think, merely unthankful to Him from Whom all good things come, did I not express my gratitude for the great favour He has given so many of my translations, (both in this and other works) in the English Church and more especially, Jerusalem the Golden, To thee, O dear dear country, The strain upraise, christ is made the sure founda tion, and The Royal Banners. That they have been a good deal altered in their various transcriptions was only to be expected; and I hope that the remarks which I have here and there made in the following pages on some of these alterations, will not be taken, as I am sure they were not meant, unkindly. In some instances I thankfully acknowledge them to be improvements: in some I think that had the reproducers studied the Commentaries of Clich toveus and Nebrissensis,'' they would have left the original as it was: I will give an example or two. In the glorious Ad Oenam Agni providi the last word of the first line 18 undoubtedly the nominative case plural.
