I loved, too, the splendid Anglican hymnody, and would be sorry to leave it had today it not been "revised" almost beyond recognition. That chapter, and many like it, also provides intelligent commentary on hymnody and the liturgical calendar. Their leaders wanted to find a place for the poetic or the aesthetic judgment; their hymnody shared in the feelings and in the vocations of the romantic poets; they wished to find a place and value for historical tradition, against the irreverent or sacrilegious hands of critical revolutionaries for whom no antiquity was sacred. |
