ley, In Essex. England, published the
second edition Of a collection OF tunes
called 1.-THE Compleat Psalmodist." In
this book, notes Doctor Benson, the
same tune appears again, but the
hymn has been made over, only the
four lines Of the translated carol from
"Lyra Davidica" remaining. Even
these were altered and two verses
were added. entirely new, the whole
making up substantially the modern
form Of the hymn. Little remained to
be done beyond a little polishing and
inclusion among the hymns sung In
church, for which 1t waited until the
beginning Of the Nineteenth century.
At that time the Church Of England
was singing metrical versions Of the

prayer books. Toward the end of the
Eighteenth century a few hymns had
appeared at the end Of the Psalms.
How they got there Is not known; II
Is thought likely that some printer
saw fit to I'll up a few blank leaves
at the end OF the prayer book with
hymns and that he made his own Sc
lection. Three things are certain:
That the hymns were there; that they
appeared without authority. and that
they not only stayed In later editions
Of the prayer book, but increased In
number.
Some time early in the Nineteenth
century, at a date not yet fixed, the
Easter hymn was added to the little
group. The changes In the text were
not many. and, thinks Doctor Benson,
each change was for the better. With
the adding Of the Wesley doxology.
the story Of the making Of the hymn
closes. It's most curious feature is
the veil Of anonymity that has moi
once lifted through all the 500 years
since its Latin composition. But the
appeal Of Its melody and Its words
appear to have needed no specified au.
thorship to survive; 1t Is as strong to-

Easter Sees
Flowers at
Their Best
By KATHERINE EDELMAN

There's something very human
about flowers. Not only do they grow
and blossom and even fade and die
but their beautiful frailties are so
human, too. They do SO love to look
their best, and If you don't believe
this, go to a greenhouse around Easter
time and see for yourselves. They're
smiling with superb Towering radi-
ance over their loneliness and their
glory. So It was at the greenhouse
which | visited.
Among other things was a cross OF
lilies In the "show room Of the green
house. In this cross were about three
hundred and fifty lilies-pure white.
Their yellow centers had been re-
moved, only their white purity was
permitted to remain. Their yellow
streaks-even the pure lilies are hui
man enough not to be perfect-had
to be discarded.
There was a cross, too, made of
p~ansies. Sweet, wise, human little
p~ansies!
But the cross of lilies was so mag
nlbcently simple and its symbolism
was so apparent that one gazed upon
1t with a kind Of reverence. The
cross of lilies Is significant of the
cross Of suffering, but 1t also is sig
nifcant OF the Resurrection. And
flowers, perhaps, are the very best
Of natures mediums In which to ex-
press the Resurrection.
The flowers, shrubs, plants and
bushes r always all decked In their
very finest array for Easter. Not only
do humans feel the urge of the spring,
the ever new fresh awakening Of the
sprlngtime as Is embodied In Easter,
and so wear their very best finery, but
the flowers, too. are dressed in their
Easter best. And proud Of 1t they
seem to bel Yet their beauty has not
spoiled them. stu are they as sweet
and fragrant as ever, giving forth
their sweetness TO all who come to
them-as though they almost under
stood better than humans the actual
meaning of democracy.

The words are q translation of an
old Latin hymn dating from the Four
teenth century. There Is now In Mu
Mich a manuscript Of that date con
taining an Easter carol In Latin, be.
ginning "Surrexit Christus hodie."
Other manuscripts of the same hymn
exist, having additional verses, but the
first and second couplets, which are
in all the manuscripts, proved to be
the nucleus around which the hymn
was to grow.
Translation Unknown.
But who was responsible for turn
Ing that Latin carol into English four
centuries later? Comparing the FIRST
and second couplets Of the Latin with
the "Lyra Davidica" version. the
translation appears literally the same
as we know 1t today. We recognize
also the "easy and pleasant tune" to
which the Easter hymn Is still sung.
Whether the tune was composed fOf
the words and who composed It Is NOT
known. Nothing more Is known OF
the tune, In fact, than of the transla.
tion itself. In many hymnals the
statement continues to be made that
Doctor Morgan wrote the music, the
fact that this gentleman was no vel
born seeming not TO make any differ.
ence, as Or. Louis F. Benson observes
In his Studies of Familiar Hymns"
The learned hymnologist. W. T
Brookes. had a theory that this Eas.
ter hymn may have been written by
Anton Boehm, chaplain of a Lutheran
chapel which had been opened for
Prince George of Denmark, husband
of Queen Anne, who, when the "Lyra
DavidIca" was published, had been on
the throne six years. 1t Is considered
quite possible that the "Lyra" was
compiled for the private use Of the
small group which surrounded Boehm.
Won instant Favor.
In 1742 the hymn was rescued from
oblivion through the medium Of John
Wesley's Foundry Tune Book" Its
use by the Methodists brought the
tune into general favor and started
1t on a long career of popularity. Ap.

were sadly lacking, already provided
with a stirring melody. the work
quickly won q place on Easter pro.

Colored Easter Efss

At one time, 1t is claimed, the use
OF eggs as food wal forbidden during
Lent. When they were served on
Easter day after a long absence from
the table they were colored red to sym.

are supposed to have adopted egg-roll-
Ing to symbolic the Resurrection. and
the eggs were colored red In allusion
to the blood of redemption. Later
other colors were introduced and now

Teutonic Easter Customs

Many OF the chief customs and OBJ
%servances, as for instance Easter eggs,
Easter fires and Easter games, are de-
rived, directly or indirectly, from the
festivals Of spring gladness held in
the hearts Of ancient Teutonic forests.
The use Of eggs is an instance. The
egg is the symbol Of the terminating
fertility of spring and the Easter egg
Is an expression Of the resurrection.
It is identified with the Easter ob-
servances best known to Americans,
and here, and in Europe, too, reciprO-
cal presents of colored eggs are sent,
In families where there are children.

Early Easter Celebration

In the primitive days of the ancient
festivals meant a great deal, much
was made OF Easter. People on
Easter morning greeted each other
with the Easter kiss, and the exclama-
ton "Surrexit" (He is risen). The
reply was were surrexit" (He Is risen
indeed). Aims were dispensed to the
poor, slaves were given their freedom
and the popular sports Of the season
Of rejoicing went sometimes a little
to extremes.

Easter Hymn
Taken From

In many thousands of churches
throughout Christendom. the 'old Eas-
ter hymn" programmed usually as
Jesus Christ Is Risen Today" is sung
on Easter morning as 1t has been sung
additionally for two centuries.

parison OF the words and music as we
know them today, with the original
form, shows that the piece has been
revised and augmented by successive
editors. John and Charles Wesley,
those great hymn makers of the
Eighteenth century. had a hand In the
changes, John including the tune In

Charles personal composition, "Christ

to be q dOxology written by Charles

an article printed some time ago In

been to introduce "a little freer air
than the grave movement Of the
