There are grounds for supposition that in the primitive British church Theodore the Greek, archb'shop bury, and his companion, Adrian, were sent by Pope Vatallan to promulgate Romanism in 669, there was a method of chanting and a system of music of which some possible relics may still remain, if they cannot be authoritatively proven, in certan rural dis- 3 tricts.

The gentler, more acceptable, nay, more niusical character of the church Lydian than of either of the other modes, springs, of course, from its ascent by a semi-tone to the keynote, which is the form of melodic conclusion that is most satisfactory and most agreeabls (0 us moderns, and which belongs to no other mode than this. Thus there is more of meaning than appears to an unclassical or an unmusical reader In Dry- den’s line In “Alexander's Feast,” Softly sweet In Lydian measure.” And it is In the true Greek spirit, as much as It is in the pure modern feeilng, that he assigns this mode of tender expression to the music that lulls stormy passions of the hero In Beethoven's “Quartet In A Minor” Is a movement which the composer defines as a “Song of gratitude, in the Lydian mode, of fered to the Divinity by a alescent.” The extremely simple theme of this may | well show the character of the mode.
