Eucharistica: Verse and Prose in Honour of the Hidden God (Classic Reprint)FB&C Limited, 2015 M07 2 - 266 pages Excerpt from Eucharistica: Verse and Prose in Honour of the Hidden God Urin G the past twenty years the author has con tributed to various magazines some original and translated Eucharistic verse together with comment (nearly all of which appeared in T he Ecclesiastical Review) on the translations. Although these contri butions were made casually and without ulterior pur pose, he finds that, together with some hitherto unpub lished matter, they would fill a little volume which might well bear the title of Eucharistica. In it he has ventured to include a few renderings from Latin prose, two of which (namely the Prayers for the Blessing of Vestments and the Prayer of St. Augustine were re quested for special occasions. He had also planned to include, if the requisite permission should have been obtained, his articles in the Catholic Encyclopedia on Lauda Sion, Pange Lingua, Sacris Solemniis, Verbum Supernum, 0 Deus Ego Amo Te, etc. On second thought it seemed simpler, however, to refer the reader who might desire fuller information on these hymns, to that great storehouse itself, rather than to burden the present pages unduly.
