lish prose by F w. MackaiL
Mr. Loeffier does not intend to present in this
music literal translation of Virgils verse into
tones The poem is fantasy. inspired by the
verses. The chief themes. with the possible excep-
ton of one not typical: they are only of Inu-
sica significance. The refrain-"Ducite alb urhe
donum mea carmina, ducite Daphnm"-is used
sparingly, ard is given to three trumpets behind
the scenes until Daphnis nears the door OF the
sorceress, when the final refrain, "Parcta. 40
urbe VENT. jam parcite, carmina, Daphnts'' is
suggested by the fanfare of three trumpets on the
stage
