By RICHARD MANT, D.D., sometime Lord Bishop of Down and Connor.
New Edition. Small 8vo. 5s.
“_Real poetry wedded to words that breathe the purest and the sweetest
spirit of Christian devotion. The translation from the old Latin Hymnal
are close and faithful renderings._”――STANDARD.
“_As a Hymn writer Bishop Mant deservedly occupies a prominent place in
the esteem of Churchmen, and we doubt not that many will be the readers
who will welcome this new edition of his translations and original
compositions._”――ENGLISH CHURCHMAN.
“_A new edition of Bishop Mant’s ‘Ancient Hymns from the Roman
Breviary’ forms a handsome little volume, and it is interesting to
compare some of these translations with the more modern ones of our own
day. While we have no hesitation in awarding the palm to the latter,
the former are an evidence of the earliest germs of that yearning of
the devout mind for something better than Tate and Brady, and which
know so richly supplied._”――CHURCH TIMES.
“_This valuable manual will be of great assistance to all compilers
of Hymn-Books. The translations are graceful, clear, and forcible,
and the original hymns deserve the highest praise. Bishop Mant has
caught the very spirit of true psalmody, his metre flows musically,
and there is a tuneful ring in his verses which especially adapts them
for congregational singing._”――ROCK.

thoughts, beautiful diction, and high imagination._”――STANDARD.
“_Mr. Bickersteth writes like a man who cultivates at once reverence
and earnestness of thought._”――GUARDIAN.
