Existing Ancient Irish Melodies
Were Founded on Traditional He
brew Airs.

Extract from an article in the Phila-
delphia Evening Times, Nov Is, 1908.
by Joseph O'Meara:
One of the most interesting facts con-
nected with Irish music is that the ex
listing ancient melodies of the country
are founded on the traditional airs of
the Hebrews. The Biblical commenta-
tors all agree that the music of the
apostolic age was derived from the Jew
ish psalmody
The apostles themselves adapted" the
psalm tunes Of the temple, but as the
Hebrews had no musical notation. the
synagOgal chants and melodies. which
must have been simple, were handed
down additionally. For 300 years
the chants of the early Christians We're
handed down to successive generations
i'm this manner and the necessary sim
plclty prevented any attempt at an or
nate service. This ecclesiastical music
continued TO improve until the reign of
Theodocius, when st. Ambrose intro
1uced his celebrated chant, by adopting
the eastern mode Of singing into his
church at Milan, A D. $50: and this
practice was later on adopted by most
Of the congregations of the world, under
the title of the Ambrosian chant, as we
are informed by st. Augustine
The system of psalmody adapted from
the Hebrews by st. Ambrose. and by
aim applied to the existing Oriental
modes. was that which was introduced
by st. Patrick and his ecclesiastics.
1t is hardly necessary to enter further
into this subject, as sufficient examples
have been adduced to show the remark
able coincidence of the Irish national
melodies which have come down to us
from past centuries. with the early &C.
clesiastical music, and which embodies
the musical modes of the east: and it
may be concluded by the internal evil
dence afforded by this construction and
he peculiarly expressive character of
the airs themselves, that the primitive
simplicity and pathos of the church mu-
sic, and the construction and the mode
Of tuning the harp, have been the prin-
cipal causes of our music possessing so
much originality and expression: to
which may be also added these other
Characteristic features which constitute
the physiognomy of the country and
give national sentiment to the music.

From one bright island flown.

While fades the autumn day,
Well toast old Ireland, dear old Ireland,

God bless and keep you, Irishmen,

A SONG FOR DECEMBER.

The earth's shroud is embossed
With gems of twinkling frost:
The heavens snap with cold.
A wind mysterious thrills
Above the sleeping hills,
With music sweet and old.
The stars sang one December
And shake with music yet:
For aye they win remember.
Although the world forget.
The God-child's birth-cry ringing
From out lowly place
That set the planets singing
In farthest fields Of space.
From warm sweet depths of sleep
Where little child-hearts keep
Their faith until the morn.
Beyond the sunset bars
To shake the farthest stars
Another song is borne.
Their hopeful dreams ascending
In waves of music flow.
A joyous chorus blending
With that of long ago
With song the night is teeming,
But, oh, how mute we are,
Who have no faith for dreaming
Nor wisdom of the start
