The reviewer faced with a

Quartet has two choices. He
can get out the thesaurus and
dig for the ultimate superlative,
or he can point out infnitesi-
NAL daws. The latter procedure
IS simply silly. Everybody knows
string players are human and
they cannot be perfect in the
machine sense.
But Thursday 7 night, the
quartet and Mr.. Piatigorsky
were Just about perfect in the
human sense. And the human
ity Of the perfection Is one of
the secrets Of the vitality Of
these musicians. For within the

fCanticle Of Canticles. In the
Jewish Bible it is the first Of
the five rolls" or "Megilloth, :"
end traditionally has been read
On the eighth day Of Passover.
Among both Christians and
Jews this book has been re-
9arded for centuries as an al
Hgory, although there have
been some since the Middle
Ages who interpreted It literally.
The first Of these was Theo-
4ore Mopsuestia about 429
A.D. Back in 800 AID. the
great scholar, Organ, described
i as "a nuptiaf poem composed
n dramatic FORM"
Whether it actually was COM
posed by King Solomon is a
matter Of great doubt and con-
troversy among students of bib.
heal literature. But it certain
y Is q part Of the Scriptures
Of both Christians and Jews.
QuestiOn-"Why- is Psalm
l19 divided into these parts?

Vau, zain, Cheth, Teth, Jod,
Caph, Lamed, Mem, Nun,
Samech, Ain. Pc, Tzaddi.

Where would you find the
meaning Of these words?"
Answer-The words which
you quote are the letters Of the
Hebrew alphabet which has
only % letters rather than the
26 in the English alphabet.
Psalm 119 (11S In the Ro-
man Catholic Bible) is an
s'acrostic" poem. In It's original
Hebrew form each Of its %
stanzas begins with one let
ter Of the Hebrew alphabet
arranged in their proper Or
der. The same is true Of two
shorter Psalms III, and 112.
, The Psalm to which you re-
fer has sometimes been called,
1.-THE Psalm of Love-" It was
about the love Of the law.
Every stanza proclaims the
majesty Of the Torah.
Unlike other Psalms this one
probably was not intended to
be sung but rather was recited
