The first mention of Christian Latin hymns by a known author occurs in the writings of St. Jerome who states that Hilary, Bishop of Poitiers (c. 310-366), a noted author of commentaries and theological works, wrote a Liber Hymnorum. This collection has never been recovered in its entirety. Hilary’s priority as a hymn writer is attested by Isidore of Seville (d. 636) who says: Hilary, however, Bishop of Poitiers in Gaul, a man of unusual eloquence, was the first prominent hymn writer. More important than his prior claim is the motive which actuated him, the defense of the Trinitarian doctrine, to which he was aroused by his controversy with the Arians. A period of four years as an exile in Phrygia for which his theological opponents were responsible, made him familiar with the use of hymns in the oriental church to promote the Arian heresy. Hilary wrested a sword, so to speak, from his adversaries and carried to the west the hymn, now a weapon of the orthodox. His authentic extant hymns, three in number, must have been a part of the Liber Hymnorum. Ante saecula qui manens, “O Thou who dost exist before time,” is a hymn of seventy verses in honor of the Trinity; Fefellit saevam verbum factum te, caro, “The Incarnate Word hath deceived thee (Death)” is an Easter hymn; and Adae carnis gloriosae, “In the person of the Heavenly Adam” is a hymn on the theme of the temptation of Jesus. They are ponderous in style and expression and perhaps too lengthy for congregational use since they were destined to be superseded. In addition to these the hymn Hymnum dicat turba fratrum, “Let your hymn be sung, ye faithful,” has been most persistently associated with Hilary’s name. The earliest text occurs in a seventh century manuscript. It is a metrical version of the life of Jesus in seventy-four lines, written in the same meter as that of Adae carnis gloriosae.

Excerpt from A Study of Latin Hymns This volume is the result of a critical reading of over eight hundred Latin hymns, psalms, and canticles. The treatment of the subject is as nearly chronological as the nature of the material permits, thus making it a suitable compendium for a brief study of this minor but unique part of Latin literature. The notes and lists of hymns in the appendix are arranged for convenience of reference with titles or first lines in alphabetical order, the source - author, breviary or period - and a place where each hymn may be found. Great uncertainty prevails as to authorship and date of many of the hymns although approximation to a period is generally to be trusted. While the commentary is intelligible to a reader not familiar with the Latin, a sufficient number of hymns in the original are given to make it a collection representative of the principal styles and the important periods so that it may be used as a collateral text-book in the study of lyrics of the post-classic ages. The work is without doctrinal bias; its chief interest, however, lies in the fact that although pursued in a purely historical way, it reveals the value of the Christian hymns as human documents. In the expression of religious feeling, hymn-writers of periods and places remote from each other are bound by an indissoluble bond which as intimately unites our time and theirs.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
