Tabb Centenary Year LXVI Three lyrics by Rev. John B. Tabb. A Lily of the Field
In all his glory, Solomon 1899 (p. 206, Religion: The Blessed Virgin) The Immaculate Conception
A dewdrop of the darkness born, January 1894 (p. 204, Religion: The Blessed Virgin) Mary
Maid-Mother of humanity divine, 1893 (p. 210, Religion: An Octave to Mary) [The Roman Church celebrates the Immaculate Conception of The Blessed Virgin Mary on Dec. 8, nine months before the celebration of her birthday, Sep. 8. “A Lily of the Field”: the poem and its title allude to Luke 12:27. “The Immaculate Conception”: in “passion-free”, Father Tabb may have meant passions in a theological sense, especially unbridled passions.] Lane Core Jr. CIW P Tue. 12/08/09 08:39:17 AM |
