verse 'Christ became obedient unto death' the psalm _Miserere_, and
the prayer which mentions the crucifixion, are sung.] [Footnote 51: See such opinions ap. Benedict. XIV, De festis Lib. 1, c. 5. The system of Du Vert, who would reject all mystical and symbolical significations attributed to the church-ceremonies, has been satisfactorily confuted by Langlet, Le Brun, Tournely and other divines.] [Footnote 52: Tartini's and Pisari's lasted only one year each.] [Footnote 53: Persons, who go immediately after the service in the Sixtine chapel to S. Peter's, are generally in time for part if not the whole of the _Miserere_ sung in that Basilic. The compositions of Fioravanti the late, Basili the present, master, and Zingarelli, are sung there.] [Footnote 54: See Reminiscences of Rome. Letter 4th. London, 1838 On pilgrimages and pilgrims see Mores Catholici Book 4th, ch. 5th. S. Philip Neri founded the Confraternity of Trinità dei Pellegrini.] [Footnote 55: ... lia fatto alla guancia Della sua palma sospirando letto. Dante Pur. VII. Sed frons læta parum et dejecto lumina vultu. Virg. Æu. VI, 863. See the learned canon. De Jorio's Munica degli antichi, art. Dolore, Mestizia. We may add that conquered provinces are often represented in a similar attitude as statues, on bas-reliefs, and on medals. See for instance, Judæa Capta, a reverse of Vespasian, ap. Addison, Dialogues on ancient medals.] |
