But you were not so far wrong; in prosperous Vesper, to westward, every one who pretends to be any one attends services at Saint Adalbert's, a church noted for its gracious and satisfying architecture. In Vesper the name of Henry VIII is revered and his example followed. But the inquiring mind, seeking among the living bearers of these old names, suffers check and disillusion.
'Twas but the sentinel gun Flashed a vesper salute to thy rival the sun; He has closed his swift progress before thee, and sweeps With fetlock of gold the last verge of the steeps. The fire-fly anon from his covert shall glide, And dark fall the shadows of eve on the tide. Tread softly my spirit is joyous no more.
Keats is termed 'thou Vesper of our throng' because he is the latest member of this glorified band or, reckoning the lapse of ages as if they were but a day, its 'evening star. The exceptional brilliancy of the Vesper star is not, I think, implied though it may be remotely suggested. +Stanza 47,+ 1. 3. Clasp with thy panting soul, &c.
Father Francois, the confessor of the convent, officiated at the altar. A rustic congregation of the faithful filled the pews in the body of the church. They came from farm-houses and villages in the immediate neighborhood of the convent. The vesper hymn was raised by the nuns. Salome joined in singing it. She had a rich, sweet, clear soprano voice.
Yet in 1499 he was sent with other musicians of the suite of the Gonzagas to Vincenza to sing a vesper service in some church. It appears that Tromboncino was not only a composer, but an instrumental musician and a singer. These fragmentary references to the activities of Tromboncino at the court of Mantua are indeed unsatisfactory, but they are about all that are within our reach.
We'll be a little late at dinner, but never mind; it will be early enough for the club." Left to my own devices I determined to do a little detective work on my own account, and not only did I succeed in finding an acquaintance who agreed to introduce us at the Vesper Club that night about nine o'clock, but I also learned that Percival DeLong was certain to be there that night, too.
He rose as he spoke, and opening the door, the monks re-entered, and placing themselves at the head of the bier, chanted the vesper requiem. When it was ended, Wallace kissed the crucifix they laid on his friend's breast, and left the cell. Church of Falkirk. No eye closed that night in the monastery of Falkirk.
"And what do you want to induce you to keep it, you little miser?" I replied "From her, only a kiss." She called me a little rogue, gave me the kiss, and then told me, that a cavalier would be under the window a little after vesper bell, and that I must give him a billet, which she put into my hand. Of course, having received my payment before hand, I consented.
But it is not only a delight to me to listen to the lark singing at heaven's gate and to the vesper nightingale in the oak copse the singer of a golden throat and wondrous artistry; I also love the smaller vocalists the modest shufewing and the lesser whitethroat and the yellowhammer with his simple chant.
After she had told the knight the purpose of the letter, she left him; the vesper service summoned her, and afterward Barbara detained her as she sang to the Emperor, alone and accompanied by Appenzelder's boy choir, several songs, and in a manner so thoroughly artistic that the Queen lingered not only in obedience to her brother's wish, but from pleasure in the magnificent music, until the end of the concert.
