Innocentius Papa"), and "this prayer has three years of indulgences granted by Pope Leo" ("haec oratio habet tres annos indulgentiarum a dom. Papa Leone"). Levis, Anecdota sacra, Turin. 1789, p. 107, gives the text with the variation Esto nobis praestantior virtus in examine, instead of Esto nobis praegustatum mortis in examine. It is in J. M. Horst's Paradisus Animae (cd. Cologne, 1644, p. 321), Sect. V., "De Sacram. Eucharistiae," as a private devotion at the elevation of the Host in the Mass ("sub elevatione"). It is also in Kehrein, No. 157. See Ave Christe Corpus verum, for a cognate hymn at the elevation of the Chalice. [W. A. S.]

Awake, and sing the song. W. Batnmond. [Praise.] This hvtnn appeared with the heading, " Before Singing of Hymns, by Way of Introduction," in his Psalms, Hymns, ana Spiritual Songs, 1745 (Lond, W. Stialiau), pp. 84-86, in 14 st. of 4 1. In its complete form it is unknown to the hymnals, Cent* therefrom are, however, in use in all Englishspeaking countries. The growth of these centos is somewhat complicated, and con ha best set forth ia detail thus: — 1, The first use of the hymn in an Abbreviated form was by G. Whiterield. In his QAI. of Hys. for Social Worship, 1753, he included as No, 47, st. i., ii., iiii., and xiv., with alterations which we give with the original readings in brackets:
"PlllISIKC ClIlllBr, 1. " Awake and sing tbe Song Or Moses and the Lamb; fTuue] TTaJfce ev'ry heart and ev*ry tongue To praise the Saviours Kume^ 2. N Sing of His dying love, Slug of, His rising pow'r; SEilbj how He intercedes above 1 or [aftj those whose sins He bore. 3. " Sing 'till [yonj aw feel &our] our hearts Ascending with [your] our tongues, Sing 'till the love or sin departs, And grnee inspires [yonr] ear Sangs, i . " Sins 'till [yon] we hear Christ Any, ' Your eins are allfuiglv'n'; [Go] Sing ou rejoicing [all the way] eo'ry day, [And sing yoar souls to hcnv'n.J 'Till via all meet in. Aeae'tt."
S. The second form given to this cento was by M, Madan in his Colt, of Ps. $ Hys., &c, 1760, No. 35. In this ws have st. i. and iii., as above, in Whitoncld, and St. iv. expanded into two stanzas thus: — 4. " Sing on your hcav'nly wny. Ye nmeom'd sinners, sing, Sing on. rejoicing, ev'ry day In Ctulst, Ui' eternal King, fi. " Soon shall ye hear him say. 1 Ye blessed children, como ' j 6oon will lie call ye hence away, And take His wond'rers homo."
This cento was repeated by Dr. Conyers in his Coll. ofPs. $ Hys., 1774, by De Courcy, in his Coll., 1775, and thence through numerous hymnals into Mercer's and Thring*s Colts., Lord Selbome's Bk. of Prviss, and others in the Ch. of England; and through Lady Huntingdon's Co!l., 1764, into a limited number of Nonconformists' hymn-books, tn many of these reprints the ye of st. v., 1. 3, is changed to you. Amongst modern American collections in which this cento is given in full are:—Dutch Eef. Hys. of the Ch. N. Y., 1808; Bap. Praise Bk., N. Y. & Chicago, 1871; Hatfield's Ch. H. Bk., 1872, and the Ch.
