Overview

Excerpt from A Study of Latin Hymns While the commentary is intelligible to a reader not familiar with the Latin, a suflicient number of hymns in the original are given to make it a collection representative of the principal styles and the important periods so that it may be used as a collateral text-book in the study of lyrics of the post-classic ages. The Work is Without doctrinal bias; its chief interest, however, lies in the fact that although pursued in a purely historical way, it reveals the value of the Christian hymns as human documents. In the expression of religious feel ing, hymn-writers of periods and places remote from each other are bound by an indissoluble bond Which as in timately unites our time and theirs.
