Laudes crucis attolamus. Author:Adam of St. Victor. [Pssiontide. Holy Cross.] This Sequence has been generally ascribed to Adam of St. Victor, and is given by L. Gautier in his edition of Adam's Oeuvres poetiques, 1881, p. 224, as probably by him, and is there quoted from a Limoges Sequentiary of the 12th or 13th cent. (Bibl. Nat. Pans, No. 1139), and other sources. It is found in a Gradual apparently written in England during the 12th cent., and now in the British Museum (Reg. 2 B. iv. f. 173 b); in a ms. of the end of the 12th cent, now in the Bodleian (Liturg. Misc. 341 f. 51 b); while Morel, p. 30, cites it as in a Fischingen ms. of the 11th cent., an Einsiedeln ms. of the 12th cent., &c. In a 14th cent. Paris Missal, and a 14th cent Sens Missal in the British Museum; as also in the Sarum, York, Hereford, St. Andrew, and many other Missals (e.g. the Magdeburg Missal, 1480); it is the Sequence for the Festival of the Invention or the Exaltation of the Cross. The printed text is also in Daniel, ii. p. 78; Kehreiit, No. 60; D. 8. Wrangham, ii 4$, and others. Dr. Nenle, in. his Medi&tal Hymns, speaks of it as "perhaps the masterpiece of Adorn of St Victor 1 '; but this is greatly to overrate it, save for its technical qualities. It is a panegyric of the cross, in which the types in the Old Testament are drawn out at length. It is quite impossible; to give an adequate version of it in good English.

Jjaudea Salvatori vooe modulemur Bupplioi. St. Notker. [JEaster,] Among the St. Gall ugs. this Sequence is found in No. 340 of the 10th cent; Nos. 376. 378, 380, 381 of the Ilth cent., dto. It is contained in a Bodleian m written c, 1000 (Bodl. 775, f. 188), as a H Sequence on the miracles of Christ and His Besurrection"; in three ksb. of the 12th cent, in the British Museum (Add. 11669, f. 50; Calig, A, xiv. f. 56; Rett. 8, O. xiii. f. 14 6), &c Also in the Barum, York, Hereford and St. Andrew* Missal*, tho Magdeburg Miaul of 1 480, and many others. The printed text is also in Daniel, ii. p. 12; Mane, No. 148, Kehrein, No. 181, 4a [J. M.] The poem is entitled Frigdora, because set to a melody made up of the modes which the Greeks called Phrygian and Dorian, i.e. the first tone mixed with the third (see Du Cange under "Frigdorae," and Dr. Nealc's Ettayt on Ltturgiology, p. 379). It sets forth the verity, so essential to be maintained in these days, and so tersely expressed by Dr. Liddon (Bampton Lectures, p. 248), "The miraculous is inextricably interwoven with the whole life of Christ" No wonder then that it wss adopted in all the three English Missals—on the Sunday after Easter in the Barum and the Hereford, and on the Monday in Easter Week in the York. Bishop Andrews, commenting on the words of Isaiah, " Unto us a child is born; unto us a Son is given," and expounding them according to a decree of the Fathers of the Council of Seville, lhat "the Child imparts His human, tho Son His divine power," adds words accurately illustrative of this hymn: —

"All along Hlfl life you shall see these two. At His hutt), a cratch for tbt Child, a star for the Sod a company of shepherds viewing the Child, a choir of Angels celebrating the Son. In His life; hungry Himself; to show the nature of the Child; yet feeding five thousand* to show the power of the Son. At His death j dying on the cross, aa the Child of Adam; at the same time disposing of randlw. as the Son of God " (2nd Sermon on the Nativity).
