Probably the singing of hymns in
procession from the altar around the
church. began with Ambrose (340-
397) Bishop of Milan when he and
his congregation shirt themselves in-
to their cathedral and continued in
prayer, praise and pastoral.exhorta-
tion day and night, in order that their
heretical adversaries might not take
possession of their consecrated build -
mg. The Empress herself had adopt-

God had been born in human' form,
and the opposition to the true faith
wee fierce ,and unrelenting.
It was to make these continued -
church services less burdensome and
ritore' profitable that St Ambrose
took some Eastern, Greek hymns
from his stores of learning, translated
therm into Italian, and; together with
some ' of his own composition bad
them taught t o
�, t and sung by the peo-
ple.
That they sang those that were
suitable for marching to as they walk-
ed in procession round the church,
led by thechoir who "carried the
tune," is by no means unlikely,: es-
pecially when it is rerhembered- that
there were no pews Or seats in those
days. The saying: of prayers, in aI-
ternate verses by clergy and people
as they marched about .the church,
Litanies as we cell them,' had; from
the first been, a custom among Christ-
ians perhaps a custom derived from
the Jewish Church.
Some of the Psalms, the hundred
and thirty-sixth for instance were es-
pecially suitable for such perambul-
atory use, the people joining in with,
"for His mercy endureth for ever,"
as the clergy sang the first part of
each verse. A few of the old hymns
such as "Lord of mercy and of might"
by Bishop: Heber, "Saviour when its
dust' to Thee," by Sir Robert Grant,
"Jesus,. Lord of life. and glory," by
J. 5. Cummins, had refrains.' of that
kind, which fitted them to serve as
processionals.
Bat regular metrical Litanies, to be
used as such, apart.: from those in reg -
tiler Prayer Books and forms of ser-
vice, carne into use in 1854, the first
being'Word Eternal, Uncr•eate" by
G Lee, intended for use at Mists
sign or Evangelistic services. A.
good inanyametrical Litanies have. ap-
.eared
Pe since thein. and are usually
sung as prayers, kneeling, in small
churches where processions of even
clergy and choir, are impossible, and
for the whole congregation to march
around quite out of the question, We
no longer take scores of years in
building vast stone churches meant
to endure for ever, as our forefathers
built their Faith in the eternity of
God's Churchinto their glorious tem-
ples. Greatly poorer than we are,
they were,. but they were willing to
,give their all and themselves to set
forward the glory of God, and to
claim the whole landscape for Him.
That was why they gave their chur-
ches high towers or spires dominate
ing the whole country around. Men
and women working about homes or
farms were not without reminders of
the Onwer of heaven and earth and.
their duty to Hirn,, for His own House
of Prayer was always in hill view.
Perhaps the most successful of the
writers of metrical' Litanies was the
Reverend Thomas Benson Pollock,.
