Synopsis

Excerpt from Lyra Catholica: Containing All the Breviary and Missal Hymns, With Others From Various Sources; Domine, Dilexi Decoerem Domus Tuæ; Burns Oates

The want thus intimated, it has been the object of the present Translator to supply. How imperfectly he has succeeded in his task, none can feel more than himself; yet, circum stances having afi'orded him, during the past year, an unlocked-for amount of leisure, he thought he could not employ it more dutifully to the Church (feeling, at the same time, strongly attracted to the subject), than in an attempt to exhibit, for the first time in an English form, the entire series of those divine Hymns, which, in their Latin originals, have through ages been, and still continue to be, to countless saintly souls, the joy and consolation of their earthly pilgrimage.
