NOTE.

"Giacomo da Todi-better known by his familiar name, Giacopone-was one of the great triad of Franciscan ecclesiastical poets : the other two being S. Francis himself and Thomas of Salerno, the author of the Dies lrae. He left a great number of poems, by far the most celebrated being the Stabat Mater dolorosa. This seems, almost from the time of its composition, to have become world-famous, and probably there is not a Church in whose breviary or missal it does not occur. But he also left the companion sequence, Stabat Mater speciosa ; this the hymn of the Cradle as that other of the Cross. It was indeed known to exist, but was buried in such obscurity that Ozanam, in his work on the Franciscan poets, believes himself to have been the first to reprint it."-Rev. Dr. Neale.

A copy of this poem, published in 1495, is to be found in the British Museum. I have set the Latin of Giacopone's hymn as it originally stood ; but in adapting Dr. J. Mason Neale's version of it, to be sung in English Cathedrals and Churches, it has been absolutely necessary to make a few verbal alterations. These occur in No. 4, the words having been slightly altered and addressed to Christ. The ninth verse (No. 5), has indeed been left unchanged, but that may be without much strain imaginatively regarded as the request of one of those who stood beside the manger-cradle, and not in the light of a prayer.-J. Frederick Bridge• .. ,, THE CRADLE OF CHRIST (STABAT MATER SPECIOSA).

A CANTICLE FOR CHRISTMAS.

No. 1.-CHORUS. No. 4.-SOLO (Soprano). FuLL of beauty stood the Mother, Jesus, fount of life still fl.owing, By the manger, blest o'er other, Let me, with her rapture glowing, · Where her little One she lays : Learn to sympathise with Thee : For her inmost soul's elation, Let me raise my heart's devotion, In its fervid jubilation, Up to Christ with pure emotion, Thrills with ecstasy of praise. That accepted I may be.

0 what glad, what rapturous feeling Saviour, let me win this blessing, Filled that blessed Mother, kneeling Let Thy sorrow's deep impressing By the Sole-Begotten One I In my heart engraved remain : How: her heart with laughter bounding, Since Thou didst, from heaven descending, She beheld the work astounding, Deign to bear the manger's tending, Saw His Birth, the glorious SoN. 0 divide with me Thy pain.

No. 2.-SOLO (Baritone). Keep my heart its gladness bringing, To Thee, Saviour, ever clinging Who is he, that sight who beareth, Long as this my life shall last; Nor CHRIST'S Mother's solace shareth, Love like that Thine own love, give it, In her bosom as He lay : On Thy Holy Name to rivet, Who is he, that would not render Till this exile shall be past. Tend'rest love for love so tender, Love, with that dear Babe at play ? No : 5.-CHORUS. For the trespass of her nation Virgin, peerless of condition, She with oxen saw His station Be not wroth with my petition, Subjected to cold and woe : Let me clasp thy little Son : Saw her sweetest Offspring's wailing, Let me bear that Child so glorious, Wise men Him with worship hailing, Him, whose Birth, o'er Death victorious, In the stable, mean and low. Will'd that Life for man was won.

No. 3.-CAROL-CHORUS. No. 6.-PRAYER. Jesus lying in the manger, All who love this stable truly, Heavenly armies sang the Stranger, And the shepherds watching duly, In the great joy bearing part ; Tarry there the live-long night: Stood the Old Man with the Maiden, Pray we that by Jesu's merit, No words speaking, only laden His elected may inherit With this wonder in their heart. Their own country's endless light.

MUSICAL GESTURES A NEW AND EASY METHOD OF LEARNING THE RUDIMENTS OF MUSIC FROM THE OLD NOTATION BY J. FREDERICK BRIDGE MUS. DOC., OXON. Organist and Master of the Choristers of Westminster Abbey; Gresham Professor of Music.

This system is already in use in many Schools and Choirs. Dr. Sweeting, Music Master of Rossall School, writes: "The result is admirable. The' Gestures' and also the rudiments in rhyme will, I am sure, lighten the dry part of many a Music Master's work." Mr. Hanforth, Mus.B., Organist of Sheffield Parish Church., says : " It is a capital system. I have given my boys one good dose already-a class of about thirty. From the avidity with which it was swallowed I believe it will prove a popular medicine. This morning I found them busily conducting a class among themselves." Dr. Sawyer speaks in high terms of the" Gestures," which he has introduced in his various Choirs and Classes. Choirmasters, or Heads of Schools, can see the Westminster Boys at the " Gestures" on written application to Dr. Bridge. PRICE TWO SHILLINGS. In Paper Boards, T wo Shillings and Sixpence.
