Can- on of Christ Church, Oxford, and Professor of Ecclesiastical History at Oxford University afterwards the Dean of Westminster Abbey. In that cur hymn, "was written about ten years ago at the request of a friend, whose children had complained to him that there was no suitable hymn for Ascension Day, and who were ea- gerly asking what had been the feel- ings of the disciples after that event." Like many another hymn it was in- spired therefore by innocent, curious childhood. The "Alleluia" at the end of each line was not Stanley's, that was the regular Easter salutation and anthern of the early Christians, and is often added to the hymns peculiar to that season and to Ascensiontide its consumation, as for instance in the case of Charles Wesley's "Christ the Lord is risen today," "Ye choirs of new Jerusalem," etc. It was the note of ,jubilant praise Christians could not but raise, as they realized all that was gained for .man- kind;• -by the rising from the dead of our Lord and Master. Jesus Christ. Arthur P. Stanley came of a noble family, his father the Bishop of Nor- wich being a brother of Lord Stanley of Alderley. He was educated prim- arily by his father, and then sent to the famous public school of Rugby where he was confided to the espec- ial care of the well known Dr. Arnold. a personal friend .of the Bishop. It is no secret now that in Mr. Thomas Hughes' great schoolboy novel "Tom Brown's School -days," ` little Arthur was the lad who afterwards became Dean of Westminster. The scholastic influence of Rugby's great headmaster and his father's careful grounding fitted Stanley to take a high standing at the Univers- ity as he did, taking all the prizes in English subjects, 'erse and prose, ,and• -also a first class standing in clas- sical honors. For twelve years he acted as a col- lege tutor, and held secular office in. the University as secretary to com- missions. For a tune he was Canon of Canterbury, and 1863 when Dean Trench, one of the most eminent div- ines of .his day, was made Archbishop of Dublin, Stanley was chosen by the Government to succeed him at West- minster, where he rentaTiied until his death in 1881. He married in the same year a sis- ter- of the Earl of Elgin, a personal friend of Queen Victoria. He had by this time become well known at court having been chosen to accompany the Prince of Wales, afterwards King Ed- ward VII, on trips to the Holy Land and to the East. No doubt it was to his relationship with the royal court that he owed his appointurent to his deanery. As a churchman and theologian he never ranked very high, but as a wri- ter of beautiful prose he has seldom been surpassed. That power conjoin- ed to a strong imagination made him a charming writer of history. His book "Sinai and Palestine" was very I highly commended when written in 1856, and those on Canterbury Cath-!' edral. and Westminster Abbey were standard authorities once, while his "History of the Eastern Church," "History of the Jewish Church" (which received severe criticism), "History of the Church of Scotland," went through several editions. He published many voluntcs of sermons which have a g since been forgotten. Dean Stanley never realized his ambition to become a writer of pop- ular hymns. It has been said of hint as of Jeremy Taylor, author of "Holy Living" and "Holy Dying" that hiss prose is' poetry and his poetry prose. r He never quite attained the the "di- vine afflatus" which sparks the tnuc poet, and few of his hymns are •now used, though the "Westminster Ab- bey Hymn hook" was compiled part- ly at least to preserve and popularise some of them.
