# A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Mathonihah

​MATHONIHAH. One of the twelve Disciples called and chosen by Jesus to minister to the Nephites at the time of his visit to that people (A. C. 34). Mathonihah was present near the temple in the land Bountiful, when Jesus appeared, and was baptized by Nephi on the day following. He is not again mentioned by name in the sacred record. His brother, Mathoni, was also one of the Nephite Twelve.

​METALS. The metals named in the Book of Mormon are Brass, Copper, Gold, Iron, Lead, Silver, Steel, and Ziff.
# A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Middoni

​MIDDONI. A land of the Lamanites. Here Aaron, Muloki, and Ammah were imprisoned, and treated with great cruelty by its sin-hardened inhabitants. Directed by the revelations of God, Ammon, then in the land of Ishmael, determined to go and deliver his brethren. Lamoni, the converted king of that land, decided to accompany him, as he believed he had influence sufficient with Antiomno, king of Middoni, to obtain the release of the imprisoned missionaries. (B. C. 86.) On their way, Ammon and Lamoni met the latter's father, the supreme ruler of all the Lamanites, journeying from the land of Nephi (Lehi-Nephi) to the land of Ishmael. From the circumstance of this meeting it is presumable that Middoni lay somewhere between Ishmael and Nephi, and as it is spoken of as down, it was probably situated in some of the lower valleys, or north towards the wilderness that separated the lands of Nephi and Zarabemla. Arrived at the land of Middoni, Lamoni found favor with Antiomno and procured the release of Aaron and his associates. Though they had at first so cruelly treated the Nephite ​missionaries, the Lamanites of this land were among those who were converted to the Lord by their ministrations. (Alma, 23:10.)
# A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Medes

​MEDES. The people of Medea, a country of western Asia, lying to the northwest of Persia. The name occurs but once in the Book of Mormon, in a quotation from the prophecies of Isaiah (II Nephi, 23:17).
# A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Michmash

​MICHMASH. A town belonging to the tribe of Benjamin, about 9 miles north of Jerusalem. It is mentioned but once in the Book of Mormon (II Nephi, 20:28), in a quotation from the writings of Isaiah.
# A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Melchizedek

​MELCHIZEDEK. The great high priest, who was king of Salem, and to whom Abraham paid tithes. The Book of Mormon gives many details of his life not contained in the Bible. Among other things we are told "this Melchizedek was a king over the land of Salem: and his people had waxed strong in iniquity and abominations; yea, they had all gone astray: they were full of all manner of wickedness; but Melchizedek, having exercised mighty faith, and received the office of the High Priesthood, according to the holy order ​of God, did preach repentance unto his people. And behold, they did repent; and Melchizedek did establish peace in the land in his days; therefore he was called the prince of peace, for he was the king of Salem; and he did reign under his father. Now, there were many before him, and also there were many afterwards, but none were greater; therefore of him they have more particularly made mention." (Alma, 13:17—19.)
# A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Midian

​MIDIAN. The Midianites, descendants of Midian, the son of Abraham and Keturah. They dwelt principally in the desert north of the peninsula of Arabia. Midian is mentioned but once in the Book of Mormon, in a quotation from the writings of Isaiah. (II Nephi, 20:26.)
# A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Minon

​MINON. A land of the Nephites,on the west bank of the Sidon, and a day and a half journey south of the city of Zarahemla. (Alma 2:24.) In B.C. 87 an invading host of the Lamanites were here joined by the defeated followers of Amlici, and as they marched northward they ravaged the country through which they passed, the inhabitants fleeing before them with their families and flocks. Alma came to the rescue of the fugitives, and in a desperate battle defeated the allied armies. Minon is only mentioned in connection with this invasion. Elder Orson Pratt calls it about two days journey south of Zarahemla.

# A Dictionary of Music and Musicians/Smith, Robert

​SMITH, Robert Archibald, born at Reading Nov. 16, 1780. His father, a Paisley silk-weaver, finding his trade declining in Reading, removed back to Paisley in 1800. Robert soon showed a great aptitude for music, and at ten could play the violin. In 1807 he was appointed leader of the psalmody at the Abbey Church, Paisley, a situation which he filled for many years. While there he made the acquaintance of Robert Tannahill the poet, many of whose fine lyrics he set to music. One of these, 'Jessie, the Flow'r o' Dunblane,' published in 1808, at once made its mark, and was universally admired.
Smith possessed a fine vein of melody, and in vocal composition had at that time perhaps no equal in Scotland. In 1820 he began to publish 'The Scottish Minstrel' (6 vols. 8vo. 1820–24) containing several hundreds of the best Scottish songs, not a few of them his own, frequently without indication. It is still considered a good compilation. In Aug. 1823 he obtained the leadership of the psalmody at St. George's Church, Edinburgh, under the Rev. Dr. Andrew Thomson, whose son John was destined in after years to become the first musical Reid professor in Edinburgh University. [See Thomson, John.] Besides anthems and other pieces (most of the former written for the boys of George Heriot's Hospital), Smith now found time to publish his 'Irish Minstrel,' followed in 1826 by an 'Introduction to Singing,' and in 1827 by 'Select Melodies of all Nations,' in one volume, one of his best works. In 1828 he brought out his 'Sacred Harmony of the Church of Scotland,' by which he is now best known. His health was at no time robust, and he suffered from dyspepsia, under which he finally sank, Jan. 3, 1829.

# A Dictionary of Music and Musicians/Smith, Father

​SMITH, FATHER, the usual appellation of Bernard Schmidt, a celebrated organ-builder, born in Germany about 1630, and came to England in 1660 with two nephews, Gerard and Bernard, his assistants. To distinguish him from these and express the reverence due to his abilities, he was called Father Smith. His first organ in this country was that of the Royal Chapel at Whitehall, which Pepys mentions in his Diary as having heard it on July 8, 1660. Subsequently he built one for Westminster Abbey, one for St. Giles's-in-the-Fields (1671), and one for St. Margaret's, Westminster (1675), of which in the following year he was elected organist at a salary of £20 a year. He was now rapidly acquiring fame and was appointed Organ maker in ordinary to the King, apartments in Whitehall being allotted to him, called in the old plan 'The Organ-builder's Workhouse.'
In 1682 the treasurers of the societies of the Temple had some conversation with Smith respecting the erection of an organ in their church. Subsequently Renatus Harris, who had warm supporters amongst the Benchers of the Inner Temple, was introduced to their notice. It was ultimately agreed that each artist should set up an organ in the church, and in 1684 both instruments were ready for competition. In 1685 the Benchers of the Middle Temple made choice of Smith's organ; but those of the Inner Temple dissented, and it was not until 1688 that Smith received payment for his instrument, namely £1000.
In 1683 he contracted for the organ of Durham Cathedral. In consequence of the reputation he had acquired by these instruments, he was made choice of to build an organ for St. Paul's Cathedral, then in course of erection. This instrument was opened on Dec. 2, 1697. Smith became Court organ-builder to Queen Anne, and died 1708.
According to Hawkins and Burney the two nephews of Schmidt, as above mentioned, were named Bernard and Gerard. But Horace Walpole alters Bernard's name to Christian. These two are very little known, although they built several fine instruments.
In 1755 a Mr. Gerard Smith was organ-repairer to Chelsea Hospital. This was probably a grandnephew of Father Smith, since from the date he could hardly have been his nephew.

# A Dictionary of Music and Musicians/Smith, George

​SMITH, George Townshend, son of Edward Woodley Smith (born May 23, 1775, chorister of St. Paul's Cathedral, afterwards lay vicar of St. George's Chapel, Windsor, from 1795 until his death, June 17, 1849), was born in the Horseshoe Cloisters, Windsor, Nov. 13, 1813. He received his early musical education as a chorister of St. George's, Windsor. On quitting the choir he became a pupil of Highmore Skeats, the Chapel organist, and afterwards came to London and studied under Samuel Wesley. He next obtained an appointment as organist at Eastbourne, whence he removed to King's Lynn on being chosen organist there. On Jan. 5, 1843, he was appointed organist of Hereford Cathedral. As such he became, ex officio, conductor of the Meeting of the Three Choirs at Hereford, besides discharging the duties of which office he voluntarily undertook the laborious office of honorary secretary to the festival, and by his untiring and energetic exertions, in the course of the 12 triennial festivals which he directed, raised it musically, from a low to a very high condition, and financially, from a heavy loss to a gain. He composed an 8-voice anthem and a Jubilate for the festivals, and other church music. He died, very suddenly, Aug. 3, 1877, universally beloved and respected.
His brother, Montem, was also educated in the choir of St. George's. On quitting it he became a tenor singer, and is a lay vicar of Westminster Abbey, and a gentleman of the Chapel Royal (1858). He is distinguished as a ballad singer, for which his clear and distinct enunciation of the words eminently qualify him, and for his skill in 'speaking' recitative. He is moreover an excellent musician. He owes his singular baptismal name to the circumstance of his having been born on a Whit-Tuesday during the performance of the now abolished Eton College ceremony of 'Montem.'

# A First Series of Hymns and Songs/Catholic Hymns/Feast of Corpus Christi

14. Feast of Corpus Christi.
Sing, my tongue, the Saviour's glory,
Of his flesh the mystery sing; ​Of the blood, all price exceeding, Shed by our immortal King;
Destin'd, for the world's redemption,
From a noble womb to spring.
Of a pure and spotless Virgin
Born for us on earth below,
He, as man with man conversing, Stay'd the seeds of truth to sow;
Then he clos'd in solemn order
Wondrously his life of woe.
On the night of that last supper,
Seated with his chosen band.
He, the Paschal victim eating,
First fulfils the law's command;
Then, as food to all his brethren,
Gives himself with his own hand.
Word made flesh, the bread of nature
By his word to flesh he turns,
Wine into his blood he changes: What though sense no change discerns? Only be the heart in earnest,
Faith her lesson quickly learns.
Down in adoration falling,
Lo, the sacred Host we hail;
Lo, o'er ancient forms departing, Newer rites of grace prevail;
Faith for all defects supplying, Where the feeble senses fail.
To the everlasting Father,
And the Son who reigns on high,
With the Holy Ghost proceeding
Forth from each, eternally,
​Be salvation, honour, blessing,
Might, and endless majesty.

O thou eternal King most high,
Who didst the world redeem;
And conquering death and hell, receive
A dignity supreme:
This day beheld thee through the skies
To thy bright throne ascend;
Thenceforth to reign in sovereign power, And glory without end.

The depths of hell below.
With trembling there the angels see
The chang'd estate of men;
The flesh which sinn'd by Flesh redeem'd And Man o'er seraphs reign.
There, waiting for thy faithful souls,
Be thou to us, O Lord,
Our peerless Joy while here we stay.
In heavn our great reward.

# A First Series of Hymns and Songs/Catholic Hymns/Feast of the Immaculate Conception of the B. V. Mary

23. Feast of the Immaculate Conception of the B. V. Mary. (December 8th.)
Hail, Mary, only sinless child
Of guilty Adam's fallen race;
Conceiv'd all pure and undefil'd,
Through thy dear Lord's preventing grace.
He would not have the blight of sin
A moment rest thy soul upon;
For pure without, and pure within,
Must be the Mother of his Son.
No haughty fiend might boast that he
One moment held thee in his snare,
Who of the dread Divinity
Wert destin'd for the Temple fair.
​So thou wert sinless in thy birth,
And sinless after as before;
The only creature of this earth
Whom sin ne'er cast its shadow o'er.
O sweetest lily! all untorn,
Though nurs'd the thorns of earth among,
To thee we sigh, to thee we mourn,
To thee we lift our suppliant song.
From Satan's snare preserve us free,
And keep us safe from earthly stain,
That in this world we pure may be,
And in the next may see thee reign.

Among the gifts thy hands bestow
Each day and hour on me,
'Tis not the least, O Lord, to know
That they all come from thee.
How Joyfully each day I ought
Thy precepts to fulfil,
Since I have been so early taught
To do thy gracious will!
I cannot tell thee what my heart
Would have me say to thee,
For having taught me what thou art,
And what I ought to be.
​O Saviour blest and God ador'd,
Still keep me in thy fear;
And in my teachers' words, O Lord,
May I thy voice revere.

2. Evening Hymn.
O Lord of perfect purity,
Who dost the world with light adorn,
And paint the fields of azure sky
With lovely hues of eve and morn:
Upon our fainting souls distil
The grace of thy celestial dew;
Let no fresh snare to sin beguile,
No former sin revive anew.
Keep thou our souls from schemes of crime,
No guilt remorseful let them know;
Nor thinking but on things of time,
Into eternal darkness go.
Teach us to knock at heav'n's high door,
Teach us the prize of life to win;
Teach us all evil to abhor,
And purify ourselves within.
Be thou our guide, be thou our goal,
Be thou our pathway to the skies:
Our joy when sorrow fills the soul,
In death our everlasting prize.
# A First Series of Hymns and Songs/Catholic Hymns/Feast of the Assumption of the B. V. Mary

20. Feast of the Assumption of the B. V. Mary. (August 15.)
See, to God's high temple above
Mounts, amid angel hymns of love,
The mystical ark of grace ​See aloft on victory's throne,
Blended in glory both Mother and Son,
In one eternal embrace!
All the sorrows her bosom bore,
All her pains and afflictions sore,
At length supremely repaid;—
There she reigns on the cloudless height,
Only less than the Lord of light,
In hues immortal arrayed.
There she lives as a fount of grace,
Ever flowing for Adam's race,
And still for ever to flow;
There, while ages on ages run,
Sweetly, sweetly, she pleads with her Son
For us her children below.
Lady, than all the heavens more high,
More than seraph in purity,
A glance of pity incline! Teach us to feel, teach us to know,
Teach us in life and death to shew
What treasures of grace are thine.
# A First Series of Hymns and Songs/Catholic Hymns/Feast of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus

15. Feast of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus.
Jesu, Creator of the world,
Of all mankind Redeemer blest;
True God of God, in whom we see
The Father's image clear express'd:
Thee, Saviour, love alone constrain'd To make our mortal flesh thine own;
And as a second Adam come,
For the first Adam to atone.
That selfsame love which made the sky,
Which made the sea, the stars, and earth,
Took pity on our misery,
And broke the bondage of our birth.
O Jesu, in thy heart divine
May that same love for ever glow;
For ever mercy to mankind
From that exhaustless fountain flow!
For this thy sacred heart was pierced,
And both with blood and water ran;
To cleanse us from the stains of guilt,
And be the hope and strength of man.
To God the Father and the Son,
All praise, and power, and glory be
With thee, O holy Paraclete,
Both now and through eternity.

17. Feast of the Annunciation of the B. V. Mary.
(March 25th.)
What mortal tongue can sing thy praise,
Dear Mother of the Lord?
To angels only it belongs,
Thy glory to record.
Say, Mary, what sweet force was that
Which from the Father's breast
Drew forth his co-eternal Son,
To be thy bosom's guest?
'Twas not thy guileless faith alone
That lifted thee so high;
'Twas not thy pure seraphic love,
Or peerless chastity.
But oh! it was thy lowliness,
Well pleasing to the Lord,
That made thee worthy to become
The mother of the Word.
O loftiest, whose humility
So sweet it was to see,
That God, forgetful of himself,
Abased himself to thee.

RULES FOR USING THE ORTHOGRAPHY HERE ADOPTED.
1. The five vowels i, e, a, o, u, in an open syllable, have the Italian sound. They are the vowels contained in the words feed fail, father, foal, fool.
2. The vowels i, e in closed syllables are pronounced as the vowels in fin, fun. But after i and y, the letter e us t be pronounced as e in sent.
3. The vowels a, o, u, in closed syllables are the same as in open syllables.
4. Words in the fourth tone-class (juh sheng) are terminated by h, to indicate that the sound closes abruptly through without an articulate consonant.
5. The symbols ï, ü, è, are pronounced as e in tassel, u in the French word tu, and the first e in there.
6. The mutes k, t, p, f, ch, though sometimes a little softened in northern pronunciation, so as to sound like g, d, b, v, are to be considered hard like the English consonants k, t, p, f.
7. The aspirated consonants k‘, t‘, p‘, c‘h, t‘s, are the corresponding mutes pronounced with a distinct separation immediately following them.
8. Before the vowels i and ü, the letters k and ts, are in many dialects heard as one sound, which appears to be approaching ch, but is not yet definitely arrived at that sound. Before the same vowels, in the same dialects, h and s also coincide.
9. The five tone-classes are marked in the following manner:—I. ,t‘i; II. ’t’i; III. t‘i‘; IV. t‘ih; V. .t‘i. In Kiang-nan and the south, the regular four tone-classes are subdivided into an upper and lower series, making eight in all. In mandarin this subdivision extends generally, only to the first which is subdivided into the first and the fifth.
