Gelesen von LibriVox Volunteers

(4 Sterne; 3 Bewertungen)

This collection of hymns have been translated from the poetry to the Latin church, arranged in the order of the Christian year. "This volume is intended for hours of devotion, and the vast storehouse of sacred poetry of the Latin Church has been put under tribute to supply the material," writes the author, Reverend John Brownlie, in the preface. The collection includes hymns for Christmas, Easter, All Saints' Day, Advent, and more. (Summary by Woolly Bee) (2 hr 30 min)

its great to here these early latin hymns in englsh. The only big drawback is the beginning of each chapter they say this is a librivox recording, it gets annoying after while.
