INTRODUCTION.
IN early medieval times there were five books at least neces
sary for the performance of Mass in its most elaborate form
Sacramentary, Antiphonal, Epistle Book, Gospel Book and
Troper, 1 and of these five the latter has in modern times received
far the least attention. The reason is not far to seek, and it is
a good one ; the interest of Tropers is quite secondary, for while
the history of the others goes back to the cradle of liturgical
literature and continues till to-day, the Tropes were a later
accretion and did not survive for longer than a few centuries.
But though the Tropers are to the rest rather in the relation
of an abortion to a living organism, there is a good deal which
makes them worth study.
In the first place the ground is very little broken ; many
writers it is true have made passing allusion to Tropes and
Tropers, some have given specimens extracted from the books
themselves, and one important section of the contents of a
Troper the collection of Proses or Sequences has received a
great deal of attention ; but so far as the present writer is aware
no Troper, as such, has yet been printed, and in spite of the
magnificent work which Gautier has expended on this study and
the brilliant volume which contains the first instalment of his
results, it is rare to find even among liturgical scholars a clear
conception of what a Troper is. 2
Again, the history of the Rise and Fall of Tropes is a very
interesting chapter in the story of liturgical development, what
ever one may think of the intrinsic value of the Tropes them
selves. And it had after all its permanent results in more than
1 The form Troper is adopted as representing the common English form Troperium
and as involving no confusion with the Greek service-book, the rpoirapiov.

one field ; not only did the Sequences win a permanent place
for themselves in the domain of liturgy proper, 1 but in the
domain of poetry and drama, both sacred and profane, a good
deal is due to the efforts of the Trope-writers.
Lastly, for the musician the whole story is full of interest,
for the Tropers practically represent the sum total of musical
advance between the ninth and the twelfth century. As far as
ecclesiastical music is concerned, the Roman chant for the Mass
had assumed a fixed form in the course of the seventh century
in the Gregorian Antiphonale Missarum : this collection had
spread everywhere and moreover had become invested with
such a sanctity that throughout this period it was considered
out of the question to incorporate new music with it. 2 The
same sort of sanctity surrounded also the music of the
Divine Office, but to a less extent ; consequently all new de
velopments in musical composition, failing to gain admission
into the privileged circle of the recognised Gregorian service-
books, were thrown together so as to form an independent
music-collection supplemental to the official books ; and that is
exactly what a troper is. Apart from ecclesiastical surroundings
the art of music can hardly be said to have existed ; such
secular music as existed was pure folk-music the spontaneous
outflow of the untutored soul of the people. It is then in the
Tropers that the progress in the art of music must be traced for
this period, and they form an important commentary on the
theoretical works of the time.
In this introduction an attempt is made to deal briefly with
some of the points of interest here sketched out : (i) The
History of the Rise and Fall of Tropes, (ii) The History of
Tropers. (iii) The Winchester Tropers and other MSS.
employed, (iv) A Critical Study of the Early Sequences ; and
finally a brief summary ol some special points of musical interest
in the Winchester MSS.
i. HISTORY OF THE RISE AND FALL OF TROPES.
Vocal music has a place in public worship which is not at all
necessarily dependent on its being united to words. In bygone
days this was more frankly recognised than it is now, and long
1 The revival of interest in Sequences began in Germany with the work of Daniel
and Mone, and in England with Dr. Neale, who not only collected and published
Sequences, but wrote a valuable critical essay on them, which was prefixed to the 5th
vol. of Daniel's Thesaurus ; the collection of Kehrein included nearly all that had
been published up to that date, 1873 ; two principal collections have been carrying
on the work since that date, viz., those of Dreves, and of Misset and Weale.
2 For detailed proof of this a reference may perhaps be permitted to the writer's
Introduction to Graduate Sarisburicnse pp. xx-xxxi.
INTRODUCTION- vii
melodies were in early times sung without words merely to some
vowel sound. St. Austin bears witness both to the natural
inclination to sing so, and to the fact that it was a known thing
in his day :
Ecce veluti modum cantandi dat tibi : noli quaerere verba
quasi explicare possis unde Deus oblectetur : " in jubilatione "
cane : . . . . quid est in jubilatione canere ? Intelligere,
verbis explicare non posse quod canitur corde. Etenim illi qui
cantant sive in messe, sive in vinea, sive in aliquo opere ferventi,
cum coeperint in verbis canticorum exultare laetitia, veluti
impleti tanta Isetitia ut earn verbis explicare non possint, avert-
untse a syllabis verborum et eunt in sonum jubilationis : jubilum
sonus quidam est significans cor parturire quod dicere non
potest. Enarr. in ps.xxxii. I. 8.
Qui jubilat, non verba dicit, sed sonus quidam est laetitiae sine
verbis. . . . Gaudens homo in exultatione sua ex verbis
quibusdam quae non possunt dici et intelligi erumpit in vocem
quandam exultationis sine verbis : ita ut appareat eum ipsa voce
gaudere quidem, sed quasi repletum nimio gaudio non posse
verbis explicare quod gaudet. Enarr. in ps. xcix. 4. 1
Perhaps it is not unfair to quote St. Paul also as an authority
on this point :
I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understand
ing also. I Cor.xiv. 15.
Certainly there still exists the same tendency to sing indepen
dently of words, and it underlies a good deal of unintelligent
but not, therefore, irrational singing to-day ; perhaps, also,
this is the simple explanation of the strange fact, that many
hymns undoubtedly enjoy an enormous share of popularity
which seems to be in direct proportion to their want of meaning.
The Gregorian Antiphonale Missarum recognises this tendency
and provides a good deal to satisfy the craving for melodies
without words. Such jubila occur at intervals on suitable vowels
in the body of the music, especially in the Graduals and Offer
tories, and more conspicuous still are the jubila which occur
uniformly on the last syllable of the Alleluia.
It is possible that part, at any rate, of the revision which St.
Gregory carried out was directed towards smoothing and curtail
ing these jubila 2 : but whether this be so or not, it became clear
by the eighth or ninth century that singers were not contented
1 The whole passage is worth study for it works out the question in eloquent detail,
cp. also Enarr. inps. xcvii. 4.
2 This seems not unlikelyfrom the terms in which John the Deacon describes his work
" Antiphonarium centonem .... compilavit " : and (ii) from a comparison
of the corresponding Ambrosian music-text : see Brit. Mus. Add. MS. 34,209, or
the facsimiles of it in P.M. I. pll. i, xv., and compare P.M. II. pp. 6-9.
vlii INTRODUCTION
with the amount of jubila which the Gregorian music-text con
tained, and began to supplement these by importing new ones.
So, side by side with the old chant, but distinct from it, there
grew up new musical phrases or complete melodies prefixed,
intercalated, or appended to the recognised music-text 1
Every new movement brings with it the signs of its own decay,
.and while on the one hand the jubila were becoming more and
more popular owing to the desire for melodies without words,
(combined no doubt with a mistaken wish to enrich and embellish
the old chant), on the other hand these same jubila were being
fitted with words, which were found to be necessary, or at
least desirable, owing to the difficulty of remembering the
melodies without them.
Here then springing out of these contradictory movements is
the beginning of the Tropes. We can distinguish three different
stages, (i) we meet the jubila without words, (2) we find words
being supplied to already-existing jubila, and (3) at a later stage
we find new words and new music being imported simulta
neously. These distinctions must be borne in mind : but the
single name Trope is a convenient word to use as a general term
for both the words and the music which have grown up either
separately or simultaneously as a kind of amplification of the
normal text.
Of the various definitions of the term given by previous
writers that of Martin Gerbert is the most complete
Tropus, in re liturgica, est versiculus quidam aut etiam plures
ante inter vel post alios ecclesiasticos cantus appositi.
Gautier's is the most pithy Qu'est qu'un Trope ? C'est 1'Inter-
poiation d'un texte liturgique. 2
But though these definitions make clear what a Trope is, and
the sketch given above shows in broad outline how it came to
exist, difficulties arise in profusion as soon as any attempt is
made to trace out in greater detail the stages of the develop
ment It will be best first of all to get some idea of the extent to
which this process of interpolation prevailed, and of the various
different forms included under the general term Trope.
No doubt the first interpolations were designed for the music
of the Mass, and these are also by far the most considerable.
They fall into two chief divisions (a) Tropes to the Ordinary
the Kyrie, Gloria in Excelsis, Sanctus and Agnus : these it is
convenient to call the greater Tropes ; (b) Tropes to the variable
elements Introit, Alleluia, Offertory and Communion : these

INTRODUCTION ix
may be called the lesser Tropes ; but even so the list is not
exhausted for the same process was applied to the Lessons i.e.,
the Prophecy and the Epistle, and to the Ite missa est or
Benedicamus (p. 144).
In a less degree the same went on in the music of the Divine
Office, mainly in the case of the Responds at Mattins : and from
the Antiphonal it found its way into the music of the Proces
sions, for the interpolations were more welcome in the Responds
when sung in processions than in their original place at Mattins
or Evensong.
But while this same process spread through the service-books
it tried to disguise itself by adopting different names in different
places : the following are the most common
1. A Kyrie, after it had undergone the process, was said to be
Kyrie 'cum farsura ' or 'farsa.' And the interpolations were called
' Versus.' (p. 48.) The term farsura or farsa belonged in general
to all the greater Tropes, but it was especially the term used in
connection with the interpolations of the Lessons.
2. In the case of the Gloria in Excelsis they were generally
known as ' Laudes' 1 (pp. 55-59), and the same term is applied
to the Sanctus and Agnus (pp. 65, 67).
3. Turning now to the lesser Tropes we come to that part of
the whole to which the term ' Trope ' is especially applicable ; it
is the regular word to describe additions to the Introit, Offertory
and Communion, and is also more rarely found in connection
with the Ite missa est or Benedicamus at the close of Mass.
4. The word ' Sequentia ' is primarily a musical term ; it, there
fore, is akin to the term jubilum already alluded to, and the
term pneuma or neupma, and all three words strictly indicate a
melody without words. Sequentia was the special name for the
jubilum at the end of the Gregorian Alleluia, and was so used
up to the ninth century, 2 and even later : it then was transferred to
the non-Gregorian jubila, and when Notker (p. xxi) began to
write words to these, he still gave them the musical name of
Sequentia, which thus by an unfortunate confusion became a
literary as well as a musical term, and came to be the name for
a hymn or poem a trope in fact to the Alleluia.
5. When the same thing took place in France a far better
name was found in the word ' Prosa,' which more exactly
1 Gautier, p. 51.
2 See Ordo Romanus II. (Hittorp, col. 3.) Sequitur jubilatio quam sequentiam
vocant : in P. L. Ixxviii. 97 1 , the words are omitted by Mabillon through his misunder
standing the term : the evidence of Amalarius so far from going against the words
reinforces and explains them : see his De divinis offidis iii. 16. (Hittorp. 411) Haec
iubilatio quam cantores sequentiam uocant statim ilium (cantorem)ad mentem nostram
tlucit quando non erit necessaria locutis verborum, sed sola cogitatione meus menti
raonstrabit quod retinet in se.
x INTRODUCTION
expressed what had happened, viz. that words had been
adapted to pre-existing music : this term went on side by side
with Sequentia to express a trope at the end of the Alleluia, but
when metrical compositions with new melodies written for them
took their place side by side with the old non-metrical words
adapted to the original jubila, the name Prosa was out of place
and gave way gradually before the German rival term, Sequentia.
The name Prosa, however, did not disappear: though partly
dislodged from its main position it kept some subordinate posi
tions of less prominence, (i) It appears as the name for a small
interpolation between the Alleluia and its Verse, (ii) As the
name for a trope to the Verse or Verses of the Offertory, (iii)
It survives in the Breviary and Processional as the regular term
for a trope to a Respond, (iv) It and its diminutive Prosula (or
Prosunzola), 1 were even used in connexion with the greater
Tropes.
6. Lastly the term ' Verba ' was also used for the prose to the
offertory Verse and for the interpolations in the body of the
Alleluia.
This classification may thus be expressed in tabular form :

The Sequence-Proses are here classed as Lesser Tropes, and
this, historically speaking, is their proper position : but for
practical purposes they must be taken out of this class and
dealt with as a class by themselves. This will give a fourfold
division, so far as the Mass is concerned, into Greater Tropes,
Lesser Tropes, Sequences, and a supplementary class containing
all the other and rarer tropes which do not fall into the first
three classes.
After this attempt to show the main extent of ground which
the Tropes generally came to occupy 2 we must now return to the
task of gathering together such facts as can be produced to throw
1 See Georgi iii. 514.
1 The list is not exhaustive, see Gautier, 147-173 and below p. xiii.
INTRODUCTION xi
light on the history of their growth. They are very few, and
consequently the history is necessarily obscure and conjectural.
In the first place we must go back to emphasize the distinction
already made between three separate stages in the development
of the tropes. The first stage is that in which the Sequentiae
or jubila existed without words : in the case of the Alleluia
these have been preserved in their early shape anterior to the
words in a good many MSS. ; but very few MSS. preserve any
other jubila in this shape. Still the evidence of one MS. would
be enough to prove that they did so exist, and there are at least
two MSS. St. Gall MS. 484, and Vienna MS. 1609 which
actually show jubila without words in connexion not merely
with the Alleluia (in the middle as well as at the end), but in
connexion also with greater tropes such as the Gloria in
Excelsis, and lesser tropes, especially the Introit. 1
The second stage is marked by the first appearance of words,
adapted to the existing jubila ; and then a final stage is reached
in which new words and new music are written simultaneously.
For some time the new fashion of singing words did not oust the
old fashion of singing the melody without words to a . . a . . a . ..
or e . . e . . e . . or some vowel sound, but the two went on side by
side ; the melody was sung twice through, once with the words, and
once as a jubilum proper, without words : there is clear evidence
that in the early days of the tropes this was the normal thing, 2
but it became less and less common to repeat the melody as a
jubilum : considerable traces of it appear however in many later
MSS., the two Winchester Tropers among the number 3 : while
the custom survived in the case of the Kyries to the thirteenth
century at least in England, 4 and in the cases of Proses to
Responds it still went on in the sixteenth century. 5
Next, the question rises as to the relative antiquity of the
tropes, and of the three principal classes greater tropes, lesser
tropes and sequences, the last was, as seems most probable, the
earliest. Several considerations point this way : (i) The closing
notes of the Alleluia would offer by far the best opportunity
for the development of jubila : and (ii) in actual fact the
melodies so developed are more natural than the rest, and

xii INTRODUCTION
lasted on in their original shape after the others had been ousted
by the melody with words two points which go some way to
prove that they are the earliest, and that other jubila and tropes
arose on their model and after they had gained success,
(iii) Such scanty external evidence as there is also favours this
view : see below p. xxi.
The first recorded tropes were those current in the North of
France. It seems quite possible that the prosulae, given on plates
3, 4, 8, 15, 16, 21, and printed on p. 84, may represent the first
attempts ever made at fitting words to the jubila, but whether
this be so or not, it is quite clear that there had arisen in France
before the end of the ninth century a school of Trope-writers
who deserve the credit of being not only the pioneers of the
movement, but of carrying on the work to its highest develop
ment. Their idea gradually matured till after much growth in
some direction, and decay in others, it found its best expression
in the Proses of Adam of St. Victor, (c. 1180.)
This French school has not usually received its fair share of
credit : this has generally been given to the St. Gall School of
Trope-writers of the end of the ninth century with Notker,
Tutilo and Ratpert at their head ; but these writers, great as
they were, did not originate the tropes, for the idea was
definitely borrowed from a Frenchman (p. xxi), nor did they bring
them to perfection : and though the wide-spreading influence
of St. Gall no doubt did much to popularise them, the internal
evidence of the MSS. goes to prove that the French school had
ultimately quite as wide an influence. The difference between
the two is that there is external historical evidence forthcoming
as to St. Gall, but the French writers
illacrimabiles
Urgentur ignotique longa
Nocte, carent quia uate sacro.
It was naturally the monasteries that led the movement, and
they remained its stronghold even though certain parts of the
system, e.g. Sequences and Farsed Kyries, laid a firm hold on the
secular churches.
There were then at least two centres of activity ; possibly the
fuller study of Italian tropers would reveal a third centre in
northern Italy. 1 Not only in the case of Sequences, but also
throughout the whole range of tropes two streams are apparent,
largely separate, but at times intermingling. The Winchester
Tropers, for example, are almost entirely of the French type,
but contain some lesser tropes, versus, and sequence-melodies
1 See the tropes printed in Georgi. iii. 441-529.
INTRODUCTION xiit
which are directly traceable to St. Gall, besides greater tropes
and sequence-melodies which are found in common in both
schools. This will be discussed more in detail later on. The
tropers of Priim and Echternach 1 on the other hand are much
closer to the German type, while those of Nevers and Novalaise 2 '
belong in the main to the French type. The great success of
St. Gall seems to have been at the outset : the Notkerian
Sequence was far in advance of the contemporary French Prose,,
but Notker marks the highest point of the German school which
remained stationary or declined ; the French school on the
other hand advanced slowly and did not reach its zenith till the
twelfth century.
M. Gautier has drawn a very valuable line between two-
great epochs of trope-writing : in the first the writing was
rough, rugged, sometimes merely rhythmical, but sometimes
metrical : in the second, both words and music were uniformly
created together, the merely rhythmical prose disappeared, the
verse became more polished and characterised by rhyme or
assonance. 3 It is almost impossible to draw a hard and fast line
between the two epochs 4 : the two styles appear side by side,
and moreover there are some tropes which it is very difficult to.
assign definitely to one or the other, but the distinction is a
valuable and useful one. It serves also to bring out further the
difference mentioned above between the development of the
French and of the German schools. The tropes of the second
epoch are almost exclusively French, and all the great metrical
sequences of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries are linked on
to the French school even if they do not actually spring from
it, as in fact the greater part do.
In this second epoch the sphere of the tropes was widened
considerably beyond the limits indicated above. We find
tropes inserted in one or two new places at Mass (e.g. before the
Gospel in the form of the Conductus) : but the chief develop
ment belongs to the Breviary, where, in addition to the Proses
of the Respond already mentioned, tropes begin to appear
in connexion with the opening Deus in adjutorium, the
Invitatory, the Lessons, both at the beginning and the end, and
even at Te deum and Magnificat. But all these are very unlike
the early tropes not only in spirit and in form but also in their
liturgical position, for they are entire and complete compositions-
in themselves, and practically independent of their surroundings.

*iv INTRODUCTION
So far we have dealt with the growth of the tropes, but we
have also to deal with their decay : this seems to have begun
very soon, and, in fact, we have already noticed one early
instance of it in the giving up of the custom of repeating the
trope-melody as a jubilum (p. xi) : from that time forward, there
is a steady decline observable. But decay in one direction is
not incompatible with growth in another, and for some time
these two processes went on side by side : there are, e.g., some
tropes which do not appear till the second epoch, though others
had already ceased by then. The growth, however, became
steadily weaker while the decay went on with increasing force :
in the twelfth century not only was the tide of feeling turning
against the tropes, but episcopal authority was being directed
towards their suppression, and broadly speaking, it may be said
that the tropes as a system were extinct by the beginning of the
thirteenth century, though certain parts survived longer and
even survive still. All this implies that the story of the decay
must be studied in detail, and it will be best therefore to treat
the main classes of tropes separately. 1
Among the greater tropes those of the Kyrie hold quite a
different position to the rest : not only did they survive when
almost all the others were abolished, but in instances when the
trope did disappear, the music did not go with it, as it did in the
case of other tropes, but the notes remained and formed an
elaborate setting of the words 'Kyrie eleyson': in the Sarum
Gradual, for example, nine farsed Kyries survived into the
sixteenth century, but latterly came to be sung either with
or without the trope ; others had 2 lost the trope altogether,
though they kept the melody, and even the name derived from
the words which had belonged to it. They, in fact, reverted to
the state of things before the tropes were invented but after
the jubilum had been developed. Some few Kyries such as
Tutilo's Cunctipotens genitor, or Orbis factor, 3 or Te christe
supplices 4 seem to be common property of a good many tropers,
but the greater part of the melodies of the Kyries as of the rest
of the Ordinary are not older than the ninth or tenth century ;
that is to say, they are not old enough to be part of the common
tradition of the Latin Church : and local usage, therefore, varies
enormously: in some cases two or three different farsings were
written for the same melody, but the melodies seem to belong to
different localities quite as much as the words. A glance at the
table given in Gautier, pp. 239-243, or at the English index
given below will show how wide are the local differences. It is

INTRODUCTION xv
not difficult to see the reason for the survival of both words
and music here when in other cases they disappeared : the words
did not interrupt the sense and reduce the text to nonsense
as was often the case with other farsings and tropes : also the
music was always within bounds, and when sung sine farsura
made a reverent and effective setting of Kyrie eleison.
The tropes of the Gloria were next to those of the Kyrie the
most permanent : one of them survived in all the Sarum books
till the sixteenth century, and another seems to have disappeared
only in the thirteenth. In monastic uses they seem to have
lasted some time longer ; the introductory trope Sacerdos dei
(p. 54) or Summe sacerdos (p. 161) was suppressed, but a good
many of the interior tropes remained. Here again we find a
certain number belonging to both schools Laus tua deus
resonet, 1 Ut possimus consequi, 2 Quern cives celestes, &c. but
by far the greater number are French. The first of these
three quoted originally closed with a clause ' Regnum tuum
solidum permanebit in eternum,' and it might have been
natural to suppose that the trope-writers would have been
satisfied with having introduced nine irrelevant clauses into
the Gloria : but no : ' crescit indulgens sibi dirus hydrops ' : they
set to work to make a trope on a trope : the Winchester
Tropers show this interesting operation in the process of being
completed (see p. 55) for they originally contained only a long
jubilum on /mnanebit, but later in MS. CC the words were
added and the trope troped. This Regnum tuum solidum O rex
glorie is the only instance of the kind forthcoming so far in
English books, but in France the same idea was taken up with
enthusiasm, so much so indeed that Gautier gives a special class
and devotes a special chapter to these Regnum tropes, and
gives a list of nearly thirty different ones. (Gautier, pp. 272-
278).
There is less to be said about the tropes of the Sanctus and
Agnus : they are far fewer and less considerable, and disappeared
at an earlier stage than those of the Gloria: but it is worth
remarking, as a further instance of growth and decay going
on side by side, that these lasted on into the second epoch,
and some additional ones even were written then, though in the
case of the Gloria the composition of new tropes had ceased.
We turn now to the farsed lessons which occupy as it were a
middle position between the greater and lesser tropes. The
Winchester books give no instance of these, but a farsed lesson
survived in the Sarum books till the sixteenth century in
the Laudes deo dicamus of the first Mass of Christmas Day,

xvi INTRODUCTION
(Missal 50) which is properly the Old Testament lesson, or
Prophetia with an elaborate farsing ; it was also in use in many
other places. 1 Besides this it was not uncommon to farse various
Epistles, especially that of St. Stephen's Day : the custom lasted
on some time, and in the second epoch these farsings were some
times in the vernacular, 2 but in some places, at any rate, these
farsed epistles were being suppressed in the middle of the
thirteenth century, 3 and probably those which are mentioned in
a Troper in the Inventory of books of St. Paul's Cathedral in
1 295 were by then regarded rather as a curiosity.
Of the lesser tropes (if we exclude the Sequences from that
term) by far the most considerable are those of the Introit : they
were more numerous, more extensive, and lasted much longer
than any of the others. They are also of interest as having
taken up and absorbed other things which though written with a
different purpose were appropriately used to introduce the introit :
such are the Hodie cantandus (p. 4), Gregorius presul (p. 145),
and Quern queritis (pp. 17, 145)- The first of these is a com
position of Tutilo of St. Gall (\gi2~), and it is quite possible that
it was one of the earliest if not the earliest lesser trope that
emanated from St. Gall: it is linked on to the dramatic
dialogues which once took an independent place in the services,
and perhaps forms a bridge between them and the lesser tropes :
but whether this is so or not, it was by far the most popular of
all lesser tropes. 4
Gregorius presul is properly part of a metrical prologue to the
Antiphonale Missarum, the first three verses have been taken
more or less accurately and a tag added to conclude them and
convert them into a trope for the introit of the first Sunday in
Advent. 5
Quern queritis is a dramatic dialogue (p. 17) which came to be
used as a trope to the introit of Easter : but at Winchester it
kept its independent place, and is thus described in the Regularis
Concordia of St. Ethelwold :

pp. 62,63, "39 f r Hodie cantandus. It is clear that Tutilo's composition only served
to introduce the introit : the interior tropes that follow it are not an integral part with
the rest, but vary in different books. There seems no reason to doubt the statement
of Ekkehard as to the authorship of this trope, but in some other cases he shows him
self an uncritical guide whose words must be accepted with caution.

This dialogue was very popular and widespread : Gautier
gives a facsimile (p. 216) from St. Gall MS. 484 which gives it in
an earlier stage before it was enlarged by the addition of the
antiphons, and another facsimile from the Autun troper (p. 217)
which represents an intermediate stage between this and the
Winchester form ; but the latter is not by any means the most
complete, for the dialogue survived and grew as time went on.
It occurs in two MS. Processionals of the fourteenth century
of the Church of St. John the Evangelist, Dublin, with a long
introductory episode for the three Maries, and with the Sequence
Victimae paschali dramatised to form the finale. (See plates 26

monument!, but the appearance to St. Mary Magdalene is
introduced 1 ; at Narbonne the function followed the lines of the
Dublin service in the main, 2 but everywhere there were local
differences more or less considerable. In later times the inter
lude became known by the name of Officium Sepulchri, and as
such it continued in many churches in France till the eighteenth
century. 3 Similar dialogues were also in vogue at other festivals
at Christmas (p. 145)* called Officium pastorum, and at
Ascensiontide (p. 1 10), and the Officium stellar seu trium regum
of Epiphany, though not so closely modelled on this pattern,
was very similar 5 ; but the more these dramatic interludes
developed the more they tended to become secular, till the
budding drama left the churches to make for itself a less re
stricted sphere of operations in the theatre. 6
We must now return to the real introit-tropcs and notice that
they coincide with a stage in the method of singing the introit
which disappeared later. The amount of psalmody sung at
the introit had already been greatly curtailed by the ninth
century, but it was still the custom, at times at any rate, to sing
after the Gloria patri a selected verse from the psalm called
y. ad repetendum or JT. prophetalis, and then to repeat the
introit-antiphon for the last time. 7 This y. disappeared later^
but it survives itself in some few places in the English tropers
(pp. 9, 10, 25), while the custom has left its mark on nearly every
page by causing the tropes of the Introit to be divided into two
classes, Ad introitum and Ad repetendum. The tropes of the
Introit outlived all the other lesser tropes (and are even to be
found occasionally written on the Guidonian music-stave 8 ), and
this fact accounts for the very insufficient definition which
Durandus gives of a trope as merely an amplification of the
Introit 9

INTRODUCTION xix
The Gradual proper seems never to have been subjected to the
indignity of being troped : but to make up for this the Alleluia
(which Gautier treats as part of the gradual) was the most fertile
soil for the cultivation of tropes : it will be best on this account
to leave the consideration of the Alleluia to the end and say a
word or two first about the Offertory and Communion.
The tropes of the latter never reached any great proportions,
and were the first to disappear : they find no place at all in the
second epoch. Here too, as in the case of the introit, we note
traces of a method of performance which was a passing stage in
a long story of decay. The communion originally had its psalm,
Gloria and Jf ad repetendum, so that it exactly balanced the
Introit, and, in fact, was often closely united with it by using the
psalm of the introit in all cases when it was not itself drawn
from a psalm : but it went through the same stages of decay as
the introit and more rapidly and more completely, till at last only
the bare antiphon was left. This is its normal state in the
English tropers, but traces of the earlier use survive, e.g. the
Gloria on pp. 16-23, &c.,and what is probably the y ad repeten
dum Remisisti on p. 3. The psalm is also often given (e.g. pp.
27, 28, 31, &c.), or else a verse to take its place as is frequent in
the St. Martial Tropers see pp. 168, 189, 193, &c.
The Offertory was much more extensively troped : in the first
place, as may be seen throughout the English books, tropes were
composed in plenty to introduce and less frequently to amplify
the offertory and its verses : but besides this in foreign books,
both German and French, advantage was taken of the long
jubila already existing in the Gregorian music of the verses (and
especially of the last verse) and Proses were written for them.
Thus there are two distinct classes connected with the offertory
the tropes proper and the Proses. In some books these latter
take their place by the side of the rest of the tropes, 1 in others
they are put separate from them, 2 but in either case they belong
to the Antiphonale Missarum rather than to the Troper in virtue
of the fact that the jubila to which they are written are part of
the original Gregorian text and not additions of later date : this
fact also determines their position in any given volume, for they
only take their place side by side with the ordinary tropes when
the Gregorian Antiphonale and the Troper are interwoven: where
the Antiphonale and the Troper are separate they go with the

xx INTRODUCTION
Antiphonale, or if there is no Antiphonale in the volume they
are put in a collection apart, but generally in company with the
little tropes of the Alleluia (q. v.) 1 .
There were several classes of tropes connected with the
Alleluia : the Sequence-melodies and their proses were really
tropes to the Alleluia in very loose connexion with it : then the
Sequences themselves came to be introduced by a trope called
the tropus ad sequentiam 2 (see pp. 161, 171, 178, 181, 189, 190,
195, 201). But besides these there was another set which may
be called the little tropes of the Alleluia, and were in close con
nexion with it : this set comprised three distinct classes, the
tropes called (i) ad alleluia (ii) ad versum (iii) ad finem, accord
ing as they were connected with the Alleluia itself, its verse or
its repeat. These little tropes of the Alleluia stand on the same
footing as the proses of the Offertory -verses : they are written
to Gregorian jubila, and therefore are distinct from the tropes
proper : in the MSS., where they are not embodied in the Anti
phonale, they generally form part of a separate collection
together with the Offertory proses and sometimes also some
Respond proses, especially the great Christmas ones, known by
the title of Fabrice mundi. 3
But far more important than these were the tropes described
above as being in loose connexion with the Alleluia, viz., those
which were developed out of the jubilum at the end of the repeat
of Alleluia and grew up into the Sequence or Prose par excellence.
The singers, not satisfied with the Gregorian jubilum at the end
of the Alleluia, added to it a long melody which in some cases
grew out of the Gregorian music, but in other cases seems to
have been independent of it. The result of this movement
was the formation of a collection of melodies without words
called Sequential, and identified by a title which in some cases
1 Of the four tropers quoted in note 2 the first two have the full Antiphonale
which embodies the Offertory Proses, the Novalaise Troper has the Offertories by
themselves and the proses with them, while the St. Martial Troper has none of the
Antiphonale, and therefore gives the Offertory Proses in a separate collection by them
selves headed " Congregatio Prosarum."
2 See Gautier, p. 154.
3 See such a compound collection in the St. Martial Troper Paris B. N. Fonds
Latin Iii8(ff. 115-131): the St. Yrieix includes the little tropes of the Alleluia
equally with the Offertory Proses in the main body of the Antiphonale (ff. 1-125)
v.s. (cp. the Antiphonale printed by Georgi, iii. 441-528), while the Novalaise Troper
has the Alleluia tropes in a separate collection by themselves (ff. 54 T -68 V ). Gautier
(pp. 152, 153, 161) is not at his best in giving his account of these various kinds of
tropes and proses to the Offertory and Alleluia. Compare with the above description
the specimens of these Gregorian proses given below in the Appendix p. 218, from
the Novalaise Troper viz. (a) the prose or Verba to the 2nd verse of the Offertory
of the first Sunday in Advent (f. i72 v ) and (/>) the tropes or Verba to the Eastertide
Alleluia Oportebat pati (f. 54 T ).

INTRODUCTION xxi
tame from the first words of the Alleluia Verse with which it
was connected, but in other cases had an independent and even
a secular origin.
At this point there rose a desire to set words to these melodies,
a desire, in fact, for tropes for it must be remembered that it
was merely for convenience of treatment that we kept till the
last the consideration of the sequential ; historically speaking it
was almost certainly the first. It is not clear where the desire first
showed itself, and a veil hangs over the whole subject so long as
it existed merely on French soil, but when it was transferred to
St. Gall then the veil is lifted and evidence becomes abundant.
The story is well known how after the sack of the abbey of
Jumieges in Normandy, in 860, a monk fled to St. Gall bringing
with him his service-book which contained some verses set
to the sequentiae : fired by this example and reinforced by a
practical sense of the difficulties involved in sequentiae without
words, Notker set his literary talents to work to provide the
melodies in use at St. Gall with more worthy words than
Jumieges could boast of: he first tried his hand with the melody
known as Organa, and wrote to it the words beginning Laudes
deo concinat orbis ubique totus, 1 which he remodelled in accord
ance with suggestions made by his master Yson on the principle
of ' a note to a syllable ' : this came to be the normal principle for
all Sequences, with one exception which was also made by
Notker; in the case of the notes on the second or third syllable
of the Alleluia he reserved to himself the right of keeping the
music-groups intact, though as a matter of fact in the greater
part of the Sequences he applies the principle strictly even here.
In the first composition he seems to have dealt rather freely
with the rhythm of the melody, and the parallelism of clauses,
which was to be the marked feature of sequences, was as yet only
rudimentary : but in his next effort Psallat ecclesia mater 2 a
great advance was made in this respect : here except for the
opening and closing lines there is a close parallelism through-
'out. 3 A detailed consideration of the early Sequences is
reserved to iv.
The seed had fallen upon fertile soil, for the monastery of
St. Gall more than any other at the time was fitted to be a centre
of a new activity both musical and literary, and the wide influ
ence which it enjoyed went far to further the spread of

authorised the tropes is one of Ekjcehard's inaccuracies : see Georgi, II., p, cxcvand ff.
xxii INTRODUCTION
Sequences. But, meantime, while the monks of St. Gall were
composing and disseminating new Sequences, the same develop
ment was quietly going on in France though eclipsed for the
time by the brilliance of the daughter school.
In both schools (as we have seen)theearlier Proses were adapted
to pre-existing melodies, and the same melody served as basis for
many different Proses (see index III) : but soon the musician
and poet joined hands more closely and produced simultaneously
new melodies with new words to them. This collaboration gave
freedom to the poet, for he was no longer bound to a fixed
melody, and the result was soon apparent : the Proses ceased to-
deserve their name, for they became metrical : the French school
once more came to the front and brought new skill and literary
power to the work : and the old rugged lines and phrases of
Notker and the early German school gave way before the grace
and power of the poems of Adam of St. Victor.
When once Proses fell into a definite and clear metrical
form it became possible to use the same melody for many com
positions ; and so at the end of their history, as at the beginning,
it became the custom to write different proses to the same
melody : in fact, it was even more common in the later stage
than in the earlier, and the most popular metrical melodies such
as, Laudes crucis, Verbum bonum, &c., came in the end to serve
for countless different Sequences. Their popularity was now
at its height, 1 and their numbers increased very rapidly
with the facilities which a fixed metrical form and melody
afforded, and when all the other forms of tropes (with a few
exceptions) had been suppressed or disappeared all the whole
flow of taste for new additions to the liturgy was turned into
this one channel : with this reckless profusion in the quantity of
Sequences came a steady decay in the fourteenth and fifteenth
centuries in their quality, and it is only necessary now to turn
over a few pages of Kehrein's or Dreves' or Misset and Weale's
collections to see that some restraining hand was needed : the
tide of their popularity turned, and they finally suffered an
extinction almost as complete as that which at an earlier stage
had overtaken the other tropes : the Sequence won and main
tained a place as a legitimate part of the Liturgy where the rest
failed, but only four out of the thousands of Sequences in exist
ence found a place in the reformed Roman Missal of 1570.
1 A striking evidence of their popularity may be seen in the way in which the
Hymns and Sequences were collected and used as a regular text-book ; many
commentaries on them exist both in MS. and in numberless printed editions. See
Sarttm Brev. III. plxxxviii. Rome alone stood firm and kept them out of Mass till
the xiv" 1 century, though they crept into other services. Ordo xi. 23, 49. Ordo>
xiii. 25, 26. See Georgi's Dissertation II., p. cxcv.
INTRODUCTION xxiii
Since then there have been signs of some mitigation of the
severity of this judgment. Apart from the fact that Sequences
met with more indulgence in Gallican Missals, it is noteworthy
that a fifth (Stabat Mater) was added to the Roman Missal at
the end of the eighteenth century ; several have won themselves
a firm position in Anglican hymn-books. Possibly the labour
expended on them during the last half century may bear in the
future still more practical fruit.
ii. THE TROPERS.
The tropes, as being novel additions to the liturgy, were at
first written in separate books, which took their name from
their contents, and were called variously by the names troparium,
troperium, troponarium, &c.
"A troparium is by rights the complement of the Graduale" :
this was the late Mr. Bradshaw's definition, and it cannot be
improved. 1 But the distinction practically came to be obscured
more or less, and in fact comparatively few of the extant tropers
are merely complementary to the Gradual. Of the two
Winchester tropers the MS. E contains the greater part of the
music of the Gradual, partly interwoven with and partly
independent of the tropes ; the MS. CC is more nearly a troper
pure and simple, but it has the Alleluias from the Antiphonale
Missarum, to say nothing of the appendix of Organa (see
below p. xxxvii). When the great day of tropes was over, and
only the sequences with some of the greater tropes remained,
the separate existence of a troper became less and less
common 3 : the greater tropes as a rule found their place with
the rest of the Ordinary in the Gradual, but the collection of
sequences still retained a separate existence for some consider
able time : in England and France the old name was still
retained, while elsewhere some new and more restricted term
took its place in Germany generally Sequencionarius (less
often sequentionalis, sequentiarius, sequentialis 3 ) : in France the
word prosarius was also used as a synonym for troparium, but
the prosae as a collection seem to have had less of an inde
pendent existence.
In England the old term went on with great vitality : in

perium is prescribed as one of the books which ought to exist
in every parish church, and similar orders had been issued by
English Synods earlier in the century. 1 This did not necessarily
imply more than a collection of sequences, though such farsings
as had survived might often very naturally be included with
them : as such a collection the Troper is still a common feature
in inventories both in the xiii th , and even the early part of the
xiv th centuries. It must not be supposed, however, that at this
time it was necessarily a separate volume ; it was in fact often
bound up with some other service-book : the Gradual and
Missal were of course the books with which such a collection
most naturally was connected, but it was joined on also to the
Processional, Ordinal or Hymnal, Antiphonal or even Collec-
tarius : the actual connexion was comparatively unimportant, as
for the most part all music in church was sung by heart and not
from notes. 2 This fusion then became the normal thing, and
finally the sequences took their place in the body of the
Missal and Gradual, either grouped all together or (ultimately)
distributed each in its place throughout the course, and the
separate Troper became a thing of the past 3
Before leaving the Tropers, mention must be made of one or
two other things which for convenience sake often found a place
in them.

INTRODUCTION xxv
(i) It was convenient to include a Tonal, that is a conspectus
of the Antiphons of the Introit, and less often of the
Communion too, grouped under the Tones and
endings with which they were connected. A Tonal
was meant more properly for educational than liturgical
purposes : the great Tonals of Berno of Reichenau,
Guido of Arezzo, and Regino of Priim, 1 are all of the
nature of treatises, and a similar scientific classification
of Antiphons, &c., enters into the scope of a good
many medieval writers on musical theory. But it had
its practical value, and consequently a Tonal forms
part of a good many tropers, 2 just as at other times
it was joined on to an Antiphonal or Ordinal. The
Winchester Tonal (pp. 62-64) deals only with the
Introits and agrees in the main with the Tonals
mentioned above, though it is not so complete in its
contents and does not discriminate between the various
endings. 3 The introductory lines to each tone are not
those most commonly employed but are taken from
Berno. 4 The mysterious syllables which precede the
name of each tone each give a memoria technica of
the neupma or characteristic melody in which the
peculiarities of each tone were summarized : these
neupmata continued to be valuable for educational
purposes and are constantly repeated in medieval
manuals :"' but the connexion of the syllables with them
seems to have been lost early, and from the tenth
century onward they not only were so far obsolete
that it needed explanation, but also so uncertain that

syllables themselves vary considerably.

can hardly be called a trope, was that known as the

against Berno and the Sarum and other books which rightly assign it to the 8th :
with Regino it assigns Sacerdotes tui to the 4th instead of the 3rd and with Berno

INTRODUCTION
Laudes, Acclamations or festival Litany j 1 two of such
forms are printed below, one from Worcester (p. 130)
and one from Limoges (p. 174).
This litany was sung at Mass immediately after the
collect on Easter Day, and sometimes at other festivals t
the custom was widespread in Germany and France,,
and lasted in many French Cathedrals at least to the
time of Des Marettes (de Moleon). The method of
performance and the actual formulae only varied
slightly.
(iii) The old Gallican Antiphona ad communicandum the
Venite populi finds a place not only in French tropers
but at Winchester ( 95, p. ig) and Canterbury. It
survived in many places in France, not only at Easter
but at Christmas and Pentecost, at least to the time of
de Moleon, and is still in use at Lyons 2 : in former
times others were also current, such as the Emitte
Spiritum, &c., 3 but this is the only one which had the
good fortune to keep its place in general use.
(iv) The tropers were also the shelters in which certain
remnants of Greek the Gloria, Credo, Sanctus, Agnus,
&c., were chiefly preserved. The Kyrie eleison was
sufficiently simple and intelligible to survive untrans
lated in Latin services, both Mass and Hours, when all
the rest was translated : and it is well known how
Greek survived in certain places in the services out of
a sort of conservative or even antiquarian tendency,.
e.g. in the Greek creed given in the early Sacramen-
taries at the Scrutiny of Catechumens, 4 or in the Greek
and Latin lessons of Easter Even, 5 or even to the present
day in the Reproaches ; but the tropers kept more
still : some have the whole of the Ordinary in Greek
(p. 192), a larger number have at least the Gloria in
excelsis for use on Christmas Day or (p. 24) Pen
tecost, and perhaps an Alleluia (pll. 23, 24, and p. 89)

for Christmas or Eastertide 1 as well, or the Gloria patri
(p. 192).
(v) The natural syncretism of service books brought other
things into the Tropers which had less right to a place
there than those above mentioned : see for examples
the Responds and Hymns, &c., printed on pp. 96, 97 :
but these in no sense belong to a Troper.
iii. THE WINCHESTER TROPERS, AND OTHER MSS.
EMPLOYED TO ILLUSTRATE THEM.
The text of the Winchester Troper which constitutes the
principal part of this volume (pp. 1-98) is formed from the two
known MSS. : the first 2 is at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge
(MS. 473), this is designated CC : the second 3 is at the Bodleian
1 See Gradttale Sarisburiense, pp. Ixxiii. Ixxiv. Ixxvii. Ixxviii. Ixxxi. for Greek
Alleluias. The Freisingen Troper has farsed Kyrie Gloria Credo Sanctus and Agnus
in Greek.
See especially a paper by W. Chappell on this subject in Archaologia XLVL,
with many facsimiles from MS. E; and plates 23 and 24 of this volume, and the
curious addition to MS. CC printed on p. 97. Compare Martene, i. 102 ; iii. 35.
2 The Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, MS. 473, is a volume of ii. and 199
vellum ff. written in the middle of the xi th century, and measuring 144 x 96 mm. :
it is made up in the main of alternate quires of eight and ten leaves, but one or perhaps,
several quires are wanting after the first, which completed the series of Alleluias and
possibly also contained other parts of the Gregorian music from the Gradual. The
main landmarks of the MS. are given above, but some minor points must be noted.
The first page is mainly illegible : of the first six lines only a few syllables can be
made out, and then follow two Sequences inserted on the blank leaves preceding the
Alleluias : similarly another Sequence has been inserted on the leaf preceding the
lesser tropes (f. 9) and others on blank leaves f. 155 and f. 191 (see pp. 71, 83), and
miscellaneous additions have been made at the end (see p. 07). Collation

plate 179: others to illustrate special points are given in this volume see plates,

3 The Bodleian MS. Bodl. 775, is a volume of 190 vellum fF. measuring 273 x 169-
mm. : its date lies between 979 and 1016, since Ethelred is mentioned as reigning
sovereign in the litany on f. i8 T , and in consequence it has sometimes been called ' The
Ethelred Troper.' Also as it has the Dedication festival on the 24th of November it is.
probably anterior to the rededication of the Cathedral on Oct. 20, 980, since this day
became subsequently the Dedication Festival (see p. 38). It is made up of twenty-
three quires of eight leaves each, to which a quire of six leaves has been prefixed
later (see p. 49) and a separate fly-leaf containing a Sequence. Other Sequences
have been added on blank leaves ff. I29~i35 b (see p. 70), and others at the end of the
volume. Some of the Sequences have been re-written in staff notation and some
erased but not re-written.
The Kyries and Sequences were printed from this MS. as an Appendix to the
York Missal (Surtees Soc. vol. 60). There is a description of the MS. in 1 he-
Musical Notation of the Middle Ages (London, 1890), with a facsimile of f. 63, pi. 2.
Other valuable facsimiles are given in Archaologia XLVI. The various references,
that have been made to it from time to time are too many to catalogue.

Library (Bodl. 775) and is designated E. The latter is the earlier
of the two and the most considerable : but it is a far less pure
troper, and besides does not contain a good deal of matter of
great interest which is included in CC. The latter therefore
has been taken as the basis of the text : any additional matter
drawn from E is inserted in square brackets, and any section
which is not contained in E is preceded by the mark If and
closed by an asterisk : so that it is easy to distinguish sections
which are peculiar to either MS. from the main bulk which is
common to both.

each MS. will indicate the relationship of the MSS. to one

There are two main points of contrast between the two
MSS. (i) CC has a collection of Organa or diaphony which is
entirely peculiar to itself, (ii) E gives the lesser tropes not
simply by themselves (as CC) but joined with the Gradual
music : as a rule cues only are given of the Introit, Gradual,
Offertory, and Communion, but the Verse of the Gradual
and the Alleluia are given in full, and sometimes ether tropes
also are included in the series, e.g., a trope to the Gloria or a
Sequence melody. E alone has the Tracts and Offertory- Verses,
though possibly they were once included in CC and followed
there too next upon the Alleluias ; but on the other hand CC stands
alone in having the Tonal and some processional antiphons.
Neither MS. has a general heading, but there is no doubt in
either case about the connexion with the old Minster of
INTRODUCTION xxix
Winchester. The Services for the Translation of St. Swithun
and for St. Just appear in both ( 144, 183) : CC has tropes for
St. Ethelvvold which are wanting in E for the very good reason
that it must have been written in St. Ethelwold's lifetime ( 160) :
E mentions the old dedication of the Cathedral to SS. Peter and
Paul, which later was altered to St. Swithun, while CC places the
dedication festival in the position which it would occupy at
Winchester subsequent to the year 980. At the time when E
was written the tropes had probably newly come to Winchester
with the Benedictines whom St. Ethelwold, with King Edgar's
approval, had imported from Abingdon to supplant the secular
Canons. 1 The Abingdon monasticism itself had only recently
been reconstructed under St. Ethelwold, on French lines to say
the least, if not with the definite aid of a colony of French monks.
It is natural therefore to find the Winchester troper closely
allied with the French type, 2 and a glance at the lesser tropes of
the St. Magloire troper printed in the appendix (pp. 145-155)
will shew better than anything how close was the similarity
between English and French tropers.
Considerable liberty has been used in printing from the
MSS. in points of minor detail : stops have been sparingly
inserted to take the place of the single point above the bottom
of the line, which is the usual thing in CC : the distribution of
the text has been rearranged for the sake of clearness, and
capitals are used in accordance with this arrangement not in
imitation of the MS. To elucidate the text further, footnotes
are given which contain (i.) various readings, (ii.) the texts of
Introits, &c., from the Antiphonale, which complete the bare
cues which alone are as a rule given with the Lesser Tropes in
the Troper.
A bolder step was taken in the decision to leave out from this
edition not only several sections which properly belong to the
Antiphonale Missarum Alleluias, Tracts, Offertories but also
the collections of Sequences or Proses which are of the very
essence of a Troper : but it was felt that this latter omission
was justified by the completeness of the Sequence-literature
which has already appeared notably the Winchester Sequences
1 For an account of this most interesting transaction and of the great development
which at once followed it, see the two lives of St. Ethelwold by yElfric and Wolstan
respectively, the first in Chronicon Monasterii de Abingdon (Rolls Series) ii. 255, the
latter in Ada SS. O.S.B. (Paris 1685) vii. 608, or the Bollandists' (August, i): see
also St. Ethelwold's Regnlaris Concordia (u. sup. p. xvii, note i) drawn up for the
government of the reconstituted monastery.
* It may be possible to trace the actual source to Fleury (St. Benet on the Loire) :
see Chronicon Abingdon (u. s.) i. 344, and compare the Winchester form of Quem
queritis with the Fleury form printed by Coussemaker (see p. xviii, note 6).
xxx INTROD UCTION
printed in the Surtees Society's edition of the York Missal, and
the general collections of Kehrein, Misset and Weale, Dreves,
and others.
For the purposes of comparison with the Winchester Tropers
other documents have been printed, viz. (i.) in the 'main body
of the book such remains of other English Tropes which could
be gathered together ; and (ii.) in the appendix some extracts
from foreign Tropers.
The main document of the first class is a MS. which seems to
have been written for use at Canterbury, and is now in the British
Museum : l this is a fairly complete Troper, but the Lesser Tropes
are of greater antiquity than the rest : the liturgical contents of
the MS. are given in full or in brief on pp. 101-124.
Then follows a collection of Greater Tropes extracted from
various English sources and printed as a supplement to the
greater Tropes of the two Tropers: the sources are various
1 The British Museum MS. Cotton Caligula A.xiv. is a volume of 130 ff. of
vellum measuring 216 x 135 mm., and consists of three main divisions.
(a.) Lesser tropes ff. 1-36 (pp. 101-120 below) written in the end ofc the xi m
century, probably at Christchurch, Canterbury. With notation in Anglo-
Norman neums. There survives the greater part of six quires of eight
leaves each, and the first leaf of a seventh quire. The following are the
missing leaves A 1,2; B 4 ; C I, 8 ; D I, 7, 8 ; E 3, 6, 8 ; F 4, 8.
(b.) Greater tropes followed by an incomplete collection of Sequences
ff- 37-9 2 ( see PP- 121-125), written at the end of the xii" 1 century and
probably at the same monastery as the lesser tropes. With notation on a
four-line staff.
(c.) Lives of St. Martin, St. Thomas the Apostle, and St. Mildred in Anglo-
Saxon, written in the xi th century : the beginning and ending are wanting,
and the leaves are in the wrong order : the last quire should stand first, and
it has lost its first and last leaves.
The illuminations are roughly done : some have disappeared.

2 The Worcester tropes are printed from Worcester Cathedral Library MS. 160
(called here MS. V), a volume of 353 ff. of vellum measuring 275 x 192 mm.
written at two different dates in the beginning and end of the xiii tu century, and
containing in the main the Antiphonal, Processional and Gradual as used at Worcester
Abbey. The main arrangement is as follows
f. i. ANTIPHONAL, Temporale : followed by Venitare and Processional
(incomplete),
f. 117. Later additions of miscellaneous character. Services of Corpus Christi,
Visitation, &c.
f. 147. Calendar. Psalter, Hymnal and Monastic Canticles,
f. 183. ANTIPHONAL, Sanctorale Commune Sanctorum, &c., and later
additions.

f. 337. GRADUAL. End of Sanctorale and beginning of Commune Sanctorum,
f. 349. End of the Sequences with farsed Sanctus and Agnus and some additions.
After f. 336 there are only two isolated quires preserved: the MS. is otherwise
complete except for the loss of one leaf, n. 9 in the Psalter : and note that the leaf
s. 7 has been wrongly bound at the head of the volume.

MSS. of Worcester, 2 St. Albans, 3 and Dublin 4 : the result of
this comparison of the English use of greater tropes is tabulated
in Index II. Finally a set of tropes already made known by
Pamelius is reprinted, and with them a single trope to Bene-
dicamus, from an Anglo-Saxon MS. which seemed to claim a
place as filling a gap in the series of tropes.
The Appendix contains (i.) the lesser tropes of a small French
Troper (Paris B.N., Fonds Latin 13252 from St. Magloire)
which serves to illustrate how close is the connexion between
the English and French tropes ; (ii.) the lesser tropes drawn
from one of the greatest if not the greatest French centre of
tropes, viz., St. Martial of Limoges. The Tropers of this
monastery, preserved in the Bibliotheque Nationale, Paris, form
3 The St. Alban's tropes are printed from two MSS.
I. The Oxford MS. Bodleian Laud. Misc. 358 (called here L) is a volume of 100
ff. of vellum measuring 227 x 151 mm. Written at St. Albans in the xiii th century :
it contains only the Parsed Kyries and Glorias followed by the Gradual- Verses and
Alleluias or Tracts throughout the year (but it includes St. Alban's Sequence).
Collation, ii. a-m 8 ii.
II. The British Museum MS. Royal 2 B. iv. (called here IV.) is a volume of 215
ff. of vellum measuring 254 x 153 mm., a Gradual written at St. Albans in the
middle of the xii th century.
It consists of the following parts
1. The Ordinary with tropes. Those of Kyries and Glorias ff. 1-54 : those of
Sanctus and Agnus at the end ff. 184 (P6)-I98, 213, 214, 209, 210.
2. The Gradual : ff. 55 (f6)-98, 199-208, 99-139. Temporale and Sanctorale
together : ff. 139-173 Commune Sanctorum.
3. An appendix of Sequences ff. 173-183, and again ff. 2io v -2l2, 215.
The MS. is now wrongly bound, as the above description shows : the quire E is
out of place and the order of leaves in the last quire is inverted. There are also
several large gaps in the Gradual : (i.) from the Second Mass of Christmas to
Maundy Thursday, after f. 68 (hi); (ii.) from Ascension Day to Whit Tuesday,
after f. 98 (Cio) ; (iii.) from Trinity Sunday to St. Peter's Day, between f. 208
<Eio) and f. 99 (Gi). Besides it is to be noted that the Gradual was never a
complete one but only for select days. The notation is Guidonian on a staff of four
lines though neums survive over the cues on ff. IO7 V and 108. The Sequences as a
rule take their place in the body of the Gradual. The actual state of the MS may
be represented thus
a 12 b 10 c" d 12 e 8 f 12 g 6 h 1 A-C 10 G-Q 10 E 10 R?
It will be noticed that the latter MS. is far fuller and more complete on the
subject of the greater tropes : where it is sole authority for anything printed below,
the section is marked off between a If and an *.
4 The Dublin Tropes are printed from University Library, Cambridge MS.
Additional 710 (called here MS. D), a volume of 136 ff. of vellum measuring
251 x 180 mm., and written for Christchurch, Dublin, in the xiii lh century. The
main divisions of the MS. are as follows

by far the most considerable monument of the trope-writers m
existence : the five MSS. which have been employed for
printing the lesser tropes seem practically to include the whole
of that limited area: MS. 1121 is taken as basis of the text,
additional matter from MS. 1 118 is inserted in brackets or in
case of large sections in double brackets, while the footnotes
contain any additional information that may be forthcoming
from MSS. 887, 1119, and 1240. The Sequences have been
dealt with by Dreves, 1 and the Greater Tropes are catalogued
by Gautier, so that now the contents of these Tropers are made
fairly accessible. 2
Lastly (iii) specimens of the proses of the Interior of the
Alleluia and the Offertory- Verse are printed from the Novalaise
Troper, Oxford Bodleian Douce MS. 222. 3
iv. THE EARLY SEQUENCES.
With a view to the study of the early Sequences, the
Sequence-melodies in their original form have been repro
duced in facsimile 4 on plates 1-17, the four following plates
give the Organa of the first seven melodies and plate 22
shews the transition of the melody into its Prose-form : (a few
elucidatory plates (ia~5a, 22a) give the staff- notation of some
of the more important examples) : this series, together with
the synopsis of the contents of the two Winchester MSS.
which bear on the subject (pp. 69-84) affords a clear view of
the Winchester use of Sequences in the end of the x th and
beginning of the xi th centures. 5
Similar collections of Sequence-melodies are found elsewhere
and notably in the Limoges Tropers ; but in German Troper?
the same need is differently met by writing the melody in
its original form on the margin by the side of the Prose. 6 A
1 See Analecta Hymnica, vol. vii.
2 The above French MSS. are all well described in Gautier, pp. 111-123.
3 Gautier, No. 43, p. 136. See also a forthcoming description in Bibliotheca
Musico-liturgica, a list of English MSS. of Music and Liturgy now (Oct. 1894)
being issued for the Plainsong Society.
4 The greater part of the plates are from MS. CC, but as the earlier ff. in this MS.
are very faint the first three plates are taken instead from MS. E. Slight differences
in general style and in detail may be noticed between them, especially by comparing
the two versions of the sequentia Pura deum (pi. 2 and plate 16), and the part of
Fulgens preclara which is given twice over.
5 The two MSS. give two collections which are almost identical, but it may be
noted that the melody Haec est sancta (xxxii) seems to have dropped accidentally out
of MS. E, and Bucca excelsa xliv out of MS. CC. Note also that three Sequentiae are
quoted among the proses of MS. E, but are not included in the series (p. So) : and
also that MS. CC has at the end a Sequentia with no title.

INTRODUCTION xxxiii
list of all such melodies (so far as they are known to the editor),
lias been drawn up and printed below as the third index (p. 227):
this list with the Notkerian Sequences printed by Schubiger
and the facsimiles and elucidatory plates of the present volume
must form the basis of our enquiry.
The structure of the early sequences has already been a
good deal studied especially that of the German ones in the
laborious work of Bartsch : but often, unfortunately, too little
account has been taken of the music, which is for this early
period evidence of even more value than the words themselves.
As a result of this, the earlier printed editions of the Sequences
do not at all represent their rhythmical form : in Kehrein the
whole is often chaotic, in Misset and Weale the arrangement
is often faulty, and even Dreves is sometimes at fault through
not having recourse to the melodies in their original form.
All that can be attempted here is to give some few broad
generalizations as the result of some study of the Sequentiae of
both French and German schools in their original form.
Every melody is divided into strophes varying greatly in
length and number : a long one such as Fulgens praeclara
(pll. 3, 4), has sixteen strophes, Pascha nostrum (pll. 4, 5) has
fifteen but of much shorter length, while Ostende minor (pi. n)
has only four. The end of the strophes are marked in the
MSS. by the letter d when the strophe is to be repeated, and
by an x when it is not.
The normal rule is that the strophes should be repeated, and
this involves parallel clauses in the words ; but there are many
exceptions to this.
1. There are some proses in which there is no repetition at
all : this is not common, but instances may be seen in Ostende
minor (pi. 1 1) Excita domine (pi. 1 1) and in the short Eastertide
melodies of the German school In te domine speravi, Qui
timent, Exultate deo, Confitemini (Schubiger 17-19 and 22).
2. In other proses there is repetition but it is repetition
amplified and not simple. The most interesting instance of
this is the Notkerian melody Duo tres (Schubiger 13) : here the
second strophe is simply repeated, but after that there is no
further simple repetition, but each even strophe is an amplified
repetition of the preceding odd one. The same practice is
constantly observed in other melodies to a less degree ; some
times as here a strophe is amplified in a succeeding strophe, 1
1 e.g., the third and fourth, sixth and seventh, ninth and tenth strophes of Puia
deum (pi. 2), and cp. Adducentur (pi. 10), and others.
TROPER. c
xxxir INTRODUCTION
sometimes the second half of a strophe is an amplification of
the first half. 1
3. In by far the larger number of proses there are some
strophes which are not repeated, and in particular it is rare
to find a repetition of the first strophe or (in a less degree) of
the last strophe of the melody.
The last strophe is in most cases treated as a coda or con
cluding phrase outside the general scheme : the first strophe of
the melody usually ends with the first note or group on the last
a of the Alleluia 2 ; this strophe forms the introduction to the
whole, and the treatment of it in the proses is very significant.
in the French school of prose-writers the custom seems to
have been retained, of singing the word 'Alleluia' which stood
at the head of the old melody ; consequently the prose does not
begin till the second strophe of the melody : the German
school on the other hand gave up this Alleluia, and began their
words at the first strophe of the melody : both schools agree so
far that the first strophe of the melody was sung only once (as
has been already explained) in the one case to ' Alleluia ' and
in the other to a single and independent first line of the words
but for that very reason they differ in the openings of their
proses, and German proses begin with this single line, but French
proses usually with a pair of lines written to the second strophe.
In the Notkerian proses the usage is quite uniform ; they all
begin on the opening note of the Alleluia : the French writers
were not so absolutely tenacious of their custom, and some
French proses are modelled on the German plan.
The difference is most sharply brought out in a melody which
has been treated by both schools, such as Ostende maior-(pl. 11)
the Notkerian Aurea : here the French Sequence, Salus eterna,
begins at the second strophe, but the German Sequence, Clare
sanctorum, at the first. 3 In other cases the melody has been
treated in both ways by the French school : see the melody
Justus ut palma major on plate la : here (and elsewhere) double
half-bars have been inserted to show at what point the prose
begins : in this sequence they occur at two places, to show two
different starting points. Now not only do all the German
sequences written to this melody begin at the first strophe, but
one distinctively French prose, and another, a pure Winchester
' e.g., the fifth strophe of the first melody (Musa) on pi. i, or the last strophe but
one of Multifariae (pi. 2), &c., &c. the instances are countless.
3 There are exceptions, e.g., Ostende major (pi. n), Domine refugium (pi. 13),
&c. , where the first strophe goes d'>wn to the first x.
3 The same is observable in Letatus sum (pi. n), Haec est sancta (Virgo plorans),
pi. 12, and others.
INTRODUCTION xxxv
one, also do the same Oramus te and Laus harmoniae. Other
French proses keep the normal French custom and begin at the
second strophe. 1
4. In some Proses a strophe in the middle is not repeated
where no reason can be given for the breach of custom, e.g.
strophe 4 of Pascha nostrum (pi. 4): or again the earlier strophes
are single as in Beatus vir (pi. i) Chorus (pi. 2) &c.
With these main exceptions the rule of repeated strophes
holds good : it is to be seen in germ in the little prosulae
(p. 84), which, there is reason to believe, are the primitive form
of sequences, 2 and most of which, though not all, consist of
pairs : also the perfecting of it under Notker's hand can be
seen by comparing his rude first attempt in writing to Organa
with his later work. 3
Another noticeable principle is that of subdividing the groups
of the melody into single notes for the purpose of the prose,
so that a syllable should be assigned to each note. Notker
has left on record the rapid development of his ideas on this
point : he accepted the principle practically from the first, but
reserved to himself the right of keeping the old groups in the
first strophe. 3 His example has been almost uniformly
followed both as to the rule and as to the one permissible
exception, and most proses are syllabic: some admit an
occasional podatus or clivis, but proses of a more elaborate
order are very rare. 4 The transformation of the melody
from its original to its later form will be clearly seen from a
comparison of plates 3 and 4 with plate 22.
But having accepted these two rules the Prose-writers went
on to deal very freely with the existing melodies. The melody
Pascha nostrum will furnish a good instance : as written on
plate 4 it fits the prose Pange turma : but the prose Concinat
orbis is also written to this same melody and ascribed to it in
the Winchester Troper (p. 82), though it differs so much that
it is hard at first sight to see the connexion. The arrange
ment of strophes in Pange turma may be expressed by the
following formula ab 2 c 2 de 2 f 2 gh 2 jk-m 2 nop ; of which d g and j are
the same: but in Concinat orbis the strophe e is not repeated as it
is practically itself the repetition of d. The contrast in single
strophes is more striking still : for example the strophe a has
eleven syllables in one prose as against thirteen in the other, b
fifteen as against eighteen, and so on throughout the two proses.
1 The same want of uniformity in French use is observable in Pretiosa (pi. 8),
Adducentur (pi. 10), Vaga (pi. 14), and others.

xxxvi INTRODUCTION
But if this treatment of a melody is free, the discrepancies are
greater still between the melodies as used by the rival schools.
The melody Justus ut palma maior (pi. i) has already been
quoted, but it is worth while to return to it as showing what
different forms the same melody took in German as distin
guished from French hands. 1 The melody as it stands here
may be thus represented ab-d 2 efghj, but as it stands in Schu-
biger (25). thus ab 2 c 2 /3 2 d 2 e > B t 2 tc where is a modified
form of b cropping up again, and e-rc are strophes made up
of the same melodic material as strophes e-j of the French
versions : but in both cases the melody has been so cut about to
suit the words that the divergence of one from the other and
of both from the original is considerable : the parallelisms of
the melody are not those of the words, and probably the two
versions of the melody had already diverged before either school
took up the task of setting words to it. Besides these differences,
it is to be noted that the whole of the latter half of the melody
is a fourth lower in pitch in the German than in the French
form. Similar differences are observable in the treatment of the
melody known at Winchester as Cithara (pi. 5) and at St. Gall
as Occidentana 2 ; or of Benedicta (pi. 5 and Schubiger 24),
Laetatus sum and many others.
A similar freedom characterizes the names of the melodies :
many are called after the Gregorian Alleluia out of whose first
few notes they grow 8 : others are called by fanciful names, and
are perhaps secular, such as Berta vetula, Frigdola, Hypodia-
conissa, Planctus cygni, &c. : some have a connexion which can
be traced Metensis belongs to Petrus of Metz, the founder of
the school of Roman chant there, and Romana to his comrade
Romanus of St. Gall 4 : Duo tres is probably so called from its
peculiar construction. 5 But a very large proportion take their
name from the opening of their prose 6 : this is the natural thing
to expect with the later melodies which did not exist anterior
to their proses, but there was a strong tendency even in the case
of the earlier ones to give up the old name in favour of the
name taken from the prose.
1 It must be noted however that the Proses of the French School written to this
melody are not by any means uniform.
2 See Schubiger 23 and Variae preces, p. 156 : these two versions differ from one
another as well as from the French version, as to the pitch of the latter half. The
ascription of the latter (Rex omnipotens) to Hermann Contractus is an anachronism
hardly worth pointing out, except because of the persistence with which it is repeated.
3 See those marked with an asterisk in the index.
4 Schubiger capp. ii.-v. 5 See above p. xxxiii.
6 Sometimes the name so taken is merely allusive, as Virgo plorans from the Prose
Quid tu virgo mater ploras. Sometimes it is not from the Prose but the earlier
Prosuln, eg., Via lux.
INTRODUCTION xxxvii
The same melody has often a number of names ; not infrequently
both a German and a French name as well (e.g. Occidentana
= Cithara). Sometimes the two names illustrate rival principles
of nomenclature, e.g. the Germans call a melody Vox exulta-
tionis after the Alleluia, but the French Omnes sancti after its
prose ; but there seems to be no principle underlying these
differences ; the converse is the case with Dominus regnavit =
Nostra tuba, and every sort of a variation occurs, as a glance
at the Index (p. 227) will shew.
Minute criticism might be extended a good deal farther than
this, but though interesting and instructive it would be beyond
the scope of the present sketch, and would require more elaborate
and complete data than are included here. Before leaving the
sequentiae two more points of great technical interest to the
historian of music must be very briefly mentioned.
1. The sequentiae give the earliest indications of musical
' form ' : here, free from words the composer was able to deal
with absolute music, and as a result his melody falls almost
of necessity into some ' form.' In some sequentiae it is very
marked : not only is the division into strophes itself significant,
but the similarity of their endings, the amplification already
alluded to (p. xxxiii) and the balance between different strophes
(e.g. in Pascha, see the formula given on p. xxxv) all shew a very
real growth, and moreover a considerable grasp of what musical
form means.
2. The sequentiae also give early indications of a sense of
key-relationship and balance of tonality : they are often not
confined within the limits of a single mode, and considerable
art is shewn in the contrasts introduced : half-way through the
melody in many cases a change takes place which is very
analogous to a modern modulation into the dominant : some
times the melody reverts to its original seat and sometimes not
Both these points can easily be traced even in the few
elucidatory plates given below: with ampler materials a great
deal more of the like nature might be pointed out : but enough
at least has been said to shew that some considerable part in
the development of musical resources was taken by the sequentiae,
and that therefore they are of real importance to the musical
historian and deserve a fuller study.
v. WINCHESTER Music IN THE X!TH
CENTURY.
It has been already pointed out that the closing section of
MS CC is a collection of Organa : the term is used here
xxxviii INTRODUCTION
and in many other places at this date as the equivalent of
diaphony, that is early part-music, or what was at a later period
better known as descant. This collection is the most con
siderable practical document which has yet come to light on
the subject of early harmony, and deserves to be closely studied
in connexion with the theoretical works of the time. Six of the
facsimiles of this volume are taken from it : plates 18-21 contain
the Organa of seven Sequence-melodies and correspond to plates
1-4: plate 24 contains the beginning of the Organa of the
Alleluias, and corresponds to plate 23, which gives the Gregorian
melody of the same Alleluias from f. 2 V of the MS. : and lastly,
plate 25 combines the Organa of the tract Commovisti from
f. I46 V with the Gregorian melody from f. 195.
Some idea of part-singing as practised at Winchester in the
xi th century can be formed from these data. The art was in a
state of transition : the earlier writers such as Isidore, Aurelian,
Hucbald, 1 &c., had confined themselves to a bare definition and
classification of concords, but in the writings of the later tenth
century we see that a great step forward had been made. The
.Musica Enchiriadis and its companion dialogue, the Scholia
Enchiriadis, shew how the three great concords, the fourth, fifth,
and octave, pointed the way to the possibility of doubling a
whole melody at the filth, fourth (i.e. inverted fifth) or octave
and thus singing in parts : they extended this further to the
compound concords such as the twelfth, &c., and shewed that
the same melody could be sung in three or even more seats,
thus providing parts for three or more voices.
To sing at the interval of an octave needs no science at all,
and so long as the musician kept himself to the Tetrachord
system there was no difficulty as to Diaphony at the fifth above
or below, for the melody took exactly the same form only in
another tetrachord : but at any other interval the melody "was
liable to be transtormed through being transferred to a different
collocation of tones and semitones. The above-mentioned
treatises pointed out this, and then went on to give rules for the
combining of two Organa with one principalis and for modifying
the symphonia diatessaron, or diaphony at the fourth, so as to
avoid harshness. This modification is the first step towards real
1 The whole history of the early development of harmony has become far clearer
since H. Miiller proved that of the writings ascribed to Hucbald only the De
Harmonica fnstitutione (Gerbert Scriptores \. pp. 103-121 or P.L. cxxxii. 905 -925)
can really be his and the rest must be of a later date. The most important ones
the Musica Enchiriadis and Scholia Enchiriadis are probably rightly assigned in
several MSS. to an Abbas Otger, Noger or Hoger. Their influence was very wide
spread but their authorship always obscure, since Guido, writing probably only a
generation later, ascribed them to Otto or Oddo, and later writers follow suit.
INTRODUCTION xxxix
harmony as opposed to a mere reproduction of the same melody
at another pitch ; and as soon as it appeared, the Organum became
not a mere mechanical repetition of the principalis, but another
part more or less independent of it, inasmuch as v though following
its progressions slavishly in the main, it diverged at times to
avoid an ugly concord. Another form of modification also had
to be made owing to the limitation of the downward range of
the vox organalis, and this, by developing the principle of a
' pedal ' also led in the same direction towards real and free
harmony, one part standing still while the other moved. Here
we have practically the principles of similar and oblique motion
in germ. 1
In Guido of Arezzo (c. 1020) the same system is found with
possibly some little development of the harmonic sense but no
distinct advance 2 : for that we have to wait till John Cotton
(perhaps circa 1050) who in the xxiii rd chapter of his Mustca
definitely set forth the advantages of contrary motion, 8 and so
put the art of diaphony on a comparatively modern basis.
The Winchester Organa exhibit all the three kinds of harmonic
motion. In the Sequence-melodies, for example, two clear
instances of contrary motion occur in the Alleluia of the first
melody : but it is the exception, and the vox organalis proceeds
mainly by oblique motion or by similar motion probably a fourth
below the vox principalis. The pages of Alleluias given here
contain two versions of Dies sanctificatus in Greek and Latin :
the latter is the best known, and another set of Organa to it
may be seen in P.M. I. pi. xxiii and p. 151. The Winchester
Organa are much more primitive ; contrary motion is rare, though
it does occur, and it is interesting to note on the syllable ethw/ke
that the quilisma of the principalis is accompanied by a sort of
descending quilisma in the organalis.
In the instance given from the Tracts contrary motion is rarer
still, except at the close of the phrases where probably the organa
rose, to sound in unison with the principalis.
The Organa have apart from their intrinsic value another
interest also in that they sometimes give hints as to where minor
accents fall in a complex neum-group, e.g., in the first sequence
melody and in the penultimate group in strophes five to eight
1 See the Musica Enchiriadis x.-xviii. in Gerhert's Sctiptores i. 159-172, or P. L.
xxxii. 970, and Scholia Enchiriadis, part ij. the early part of the dialogue, which
gives perhaps the clearer account of the two, in Gerbert i. 184-192, or P.L. cxxxij.

xl INTRODUCTION
there might be a doubt as to whether the accent fell on the first
or second note of the six, but the podatus in the Organa decides
in favour of the second syllable. Similar valuable hints may
often be thus obtained (at any rate indicating what was the view
of the writer of the Organa) and so the diaphony can be made of
service as a commentary on the phrasing of the principalis.
We have so far only taken account of the neums, but there are
two sets of alphabetic signs which call for notice.
The first are the so-called Romanian letters which were devised
at St. Gall (perhaps by Romanus himself) to give directions as to
the singing, and are explained in the well known letter of Notker
to Lamtbert. 1 In the Winchester tropers Romanian letters
occur throughout the more elaborate music and the Organa : the
whole alphabet expounded by Notker is too complete a series for
real use, and in these MSS. we find six letters principally if not
exclusively employed : these are (i.) 1 levare : (ii.) s sursum :
(iii.) i. or iu iusum : (iv.) e equaliter : (v.) m mediocriter : (vi.)
t tene : in other words four letters roughly indicate pitch
' above ' (2), ' below,' and ' unison,' while two regulate the
phrasing like the modern moderate and ritenuto. The value of
these is obvious.
In the Proses and in some other places (see pll. 22, 25) an
alphabetical notation is employed side by side with the neums
to fix accurately the pitch of the notes : this practice, which is
entirely distinct from the Romanian use of letters, is of great
antiquity, but served more for educational purposes than for
practical use in service books. The oldest form of alphabetical
notation is that which is adopted by Hucbald from Boethius :
the letters used are not a consecutive series drawn from the
alphabet but rather miscellaneous signs connected with the
Greek names of the notes. 2 Another method consisted in the
use of the fifteen letters a-p for the two octaves of the diatonic
scale : this is the method of the celebrated Antiphonal of
Montpellier 3 and of most of the principal specimens of alpha
betical notation. As a modification of this method others em
ployed the seven letters A-G for the lower octave and repeated
them in the form a-g for the upper octave, using aa for the
fifteenth note. 4

Solesmes, see P.M. IV. See also Nisard's L'Archeologie Musicale (Paris. 1890),

INTRODUCTION xli
The Winchester method is not exactly any of these three :
it is like the latter inasmuch as it employs the first seven letters
of the alphabet, but it makes no distinction between the lower
and the upper octaves. There is also a far more important
difference, inasmuch as the letters are assigned to the notes on a
different principle. The commoner alphabetical nomenclature
agrees with the modern nomenclature in giving the name A or
a to the lowest space of our bass clef: but according to the
Winchester nomenclature this was F. This nomenclature is not
unknown elsewhere, 1 and from its connexion with organa has
been given the name of ' Organum notation': it seems clearly
to be a sort of compromise between the actual letters as used
by Boethius and the system of the consecutive alphabetical
notation. F was adopted for the name of the lowest note
(Proslambanomenos) as representing Boethius' Dasian or rough
breathing (- ; above, G fitted with Boethius' F, and so on. The
two systems actually stand in juxtaposition in the De Harmonica
Institutione as printed by Gerbert. 2
The result of this is that, viewed from the standpoint of the
ordinary nomenclature, the letter F is placed wherever we
should expect A, and the letter a wherever we should expect c,
and so on throughout the whole series : or to put the same
thing in another way three sharps must be supplied as signa
ture to any melody written down straight from this Organum-
notation. It is remarkable to find this system still in use at
Winchester in the xi th century 3 : possibly it survived in con
nexion with Organa after it had disappeared from elsewhere. 4
It only remains for me in conclusion to express gratitude
to many who in one way or another have forwarded the work
to the librarians and officials of various libraries where materials
have been collected, and more especially to the Master and
Fellows of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, for placing their
valuable MS. at his disposal, to the Rev. J. R. Harmer, Fellow
1 Miiller pp. 68, 69, 76.
2 Gerbert i. 118 or P. L. cxxxii. 921, 922. Miiller p. 61.
3 It is noticeable that the alphabetical notation given to Redemptori carmina
(p. 68), which is of a slightly later date, seems to be different to the rest and to
belong to the commoner system which agrees with our modern nomenclature.

and Librarian, for making access to the MS. not only possible,
but easy and delightful, and to the Rev C. A. E. Pollock, also
Fellow of the College, for his generosity in bestowing ungrudg
ingly both time and skill on the photographs from which the
bulk of the collotype plates are taken ; similar thanks are due
to the Hon. B. J. Plunket in connexion with plate 26b.
Many readers will be glad that it has been possible to have
besides the collotypes some elucidatory plates printed in music
type, and for these the thanks of the Society are due to the Rev.
Mother and Community of S. Mary the Virgin at Wantage.
In many cases where there are faults and blemishes in the book
it has not been for want of good counsellors, and any good
points it may have, are largely due to ihe help of kind friends,
who have read proof-sheets and made valuable suggestions,
among whom I must specially mention the Rev. E. S. Dewick,
the Rev. G. H. Palmer, the Rev. H. A. Wilson, and my Brother
Richard Rackham. How much I owe to previous writers will
be seen from the references, and M. Gautier has increased the
already great debt I owe to him through his book by personally
giving me much encouragement and expressing his approbation
of several new views, which but for that approbation would not
have been so confidently stated.

SEQUENTIAE & PROSAE 69
The latter part of each MS. contains the Sequentiae and
Prosae (in MS. CC ff. 81-135, and in MS. E ff. 122-end). They
are given in two forms (a) the melodies in their original shape
as Sequentiae (see introduction, p. xx) without words : (b) the
same melodies in their later form as Prosae, i.e., with full words
adapted to them.
The earlier form is to be seen in the facsimiles pll. 1-17, and
the later form on pi. 21.
The Proses have all been printed before and are easily acces
sible so they are not printed in full now, but there is given
below a synopsis of the contents of these two MSS., so far as
the Sequences or Proses are concerned, including the various
later additions which do not form part of the main collections.
The contents of MS. E are given on the left-hand page and
those of MS. CC on the right-hand page, arranged synoptically,
and of the three columns which appear in each page the left-hand
one gives the title of the melody in the original shape (a) : the
middle one gives the title again and the first words of the Prose
as they appear in the later form (&) : while the third column
gives a reference to books where the full text of the Prose
may be found : the plain numbers refer to Misset and Weale's
Analecta Liturgica (ii. pp. 22 and 107), and those with K prefixed
to Kehrein's Lateinische SeQuenzen.
The Appendix to MS. CC contains for a third time over the
titles of the first few of the melodies (on ff. 153-155, see pll. 18-
21): when these differ from the titles as given earlier, the varia
tions are inserted in the synopsis in brackets.
In MS. E the music of some proses has been rewritten,
probably in the end of the xii th century, on a four-line stave :
these are distinguished by an asterisk. 1
To four of the melodies some words have been adapted and are
found even in the original shape (a) : these words are subsequently
found incorporated in the fully developed Prose and in each of
these two MSS. they are then distinguished by being v/ritten
in red capital letters (see pll. 3, 4, 22) : they are printed here
after the synoptical table (p. 84).

i.e., sequentia (i) with sequentiae (ii)-(vii) and the title of (viii) :
see above, pp. 69-73, and facsimiles 18-21. The series has
not been completed but there follow (f. I55 V ) six Proses
written in a later hand on the blank leaves of the quire :
see above, p. 83. Also Organa to some tropes of Easter-
day : see 85, 84 i-iv, 89, 86.
1 The references are to the pages in Graduate Sarisburiense the facsimile edition
of the Plainsong and Medieval Music Society, London, Quaritch, 1894, and to Missale
Sdrum (Burntisland, 1861-1883).
" Vidi supra montem sion agnum stantem et cum eo centum quadraginta quattuor
milia. Habentes nomen eius et nomen patris eius scriptum in frontibus suis. Et canta-
bant canticum nouum ante sedem dei et resonabat terra in uoces illorum.
3 Gaude maria uirgo cunctas hereses sola interemisti. Que gabrihelis arch-
angeli dictis credidisti. Dum uirgo deum et hominem genuisti et post partum uirgo
inuiolata permansisti. Dei genitrix intercede pro nobis.
4 E has (ff. 88-97) the Gregorian music of a series of Tracts which does not
include the second, third, and fourth of the above series, but does include several
others in common use, but not mentioned above.
ORGANA
INCIPIUNT ORGANA AD ALLELUIA.
These are not printed in full, since nearly all of them are well
known as occurring in the Sarum Missal or Gradual : but
there is given below a synopsis of the contents of these two
MSS., so far as the Alleluia- Verses are concerned.
The series in MS. E, which is far the largest one, is taken as a
standard of comparison : there are two series in MS. CC : the
first (with the Gregorian music) begins on f. 2 V , and is
incomplete : the second (with Organa) begins with the above
heading at the point now reached in the MS. (f. 163) : these
two series are indicated in the synopsis by the number
which each Alleluia-Verse bears in the series of MS. E, and
are arranged in columns parallel with it : in the columns
on the right hand references are given to the pages in
Graduate Sarisburiense and the Burntisland edition of the
Sarum Missal when any given Alleluia- Verse may be found
there : others which do not occur in the Sarum books are
given in full in foot notes. See pll. 23, 24 for the first page
of each series in MS. CC.

This collection cannot date much earlier than the end of the xiith century : it
contains several sequences of Adam of St. Victor, Potestate non natura, Superne
matris gaudia, Ecce dies triumphalis : the latter seems to point to some close con
nexion between the collection and the Monastery of St. Victor, which would account
for Adam's sequences being so soon incorporated : on the other hand it does not
contain those of Adam's sequences which were most commonly in use in England later,
e.g. , Congaudentes exultemus for St. Nicholas : Zyma uetus expurgatur for Eastertide :
Lux iocunda for Whitsuntide : Quam dilecta tabernacula for Dedication, &c.

III. INDEX TO THE SEQUENTIAE AND
THEIR CORRESPONDING PROSES.
This list is based on two collections. I . The Winchester series printed in SMALL
CAPITALS and 2. The Notkerian series taken from Schubiger with additions from
Bartsch and elsewhere. There are besides a number of others quoted (in italics)
from various sources, the principal being
L = The Tropers of St. Martial, Limoges. 1
N = The Nevers Troper. 2 E = The Echternach Troper. 3
P = The Priim Troper. 3 B = Bartsch Lateinische Sequemen.
C = The Cluny Troper. 4
An asterisk * placed against a Sequentia implies that it is connected with the
Gregorian Alleluia.
An obelus t placed against a prose implies that at Limoges the first words of it were
used as heading to the Sequentia instead of the proper independent title which was
in use elsewhere, or, in some cases, as well as an independent title.
The Roman and Arabic numerals following the titles in the case of the Winchester
Melodies refer to the list as printed from MS. CC (pp. 71-81) and to the facsimile
plates. The Arabic numerals by themselves refer to the Exempla in Schubiger,
1 Those which contain the Sequentiae are the Paris MSS. Bibl: Nat: Fonds Latin
887, 909, 1084, 1118, 1119 (joined with the Proses), 1121, 1133-1137 ; see Gautierpp.
111-123. These Limoges MSS. give only in some few cases the proper titles to the
melodies : more often instead of a title there are prefixed to a Sequentia the first words
of the Prose or Proses corresponding to it. Any additional light so thrown on the
Sequentiae is taken account of in the following list : but some of the headings throw
no additional light on the subject, as when e.g. they merely connect a Prose and a
Sequentia both of which are otherwise unknown. Nothing could be gained by insert
ing such headings in this index, but they are indicated in the Summary List of Proses
(p. 239), which includes not only all the Proses dealt with in this index, but a number
of others which are merely notable from the fact that their opening words are given
in the Limoges MSS. as heading to an otherwise unknown Sequentia.
On the other hand in some cases a title is given to the Sequentia, but the corres
ponding prose or proses have not so far been identified : in such cases the titles are
given in the Index following with a reference to the particular MS. in which each
occurs.
2 Paris Bibl: Nat: Fonds Latin 9449.
s See Reiners.
4 Paris Bibl: Nat: Fonds Latin 1087. According to Gautier and Dreves this is
also a troper of St. Martial, but this is very unlikely.
(i) It belonged to Baluze and therefore came to the Library some time before
the St. Martial MSS. (see L. Delisle Le Cabinet des MSS. . . i. 387, 444,
453. Paris 1868.)
(ii.) It is entirely unlike the St. Martial Tropers in style : contrast the facsimile
P.M. I. pi. xix with P.M. i. 27, 28, ii. 86, and see the account of it given in
P.M. I. p. 118.
(iii.) It has no reference to St. Martial but has the ull hour services of St. Odilo
added on f. H2 T . This seems to point to Cluny.

1 Bartsch quotes from Daniel Thesaunts v. 64, Laudes domino concinamus, and
suggests deo for domino ; but this does not help to identify the sequence : there is a
sequence Laudes deo concinat but its melody is not Concordia but Organa.
